Jody Mason of Olympia is locked to the Washington State Grange office building Tuesday to protest war. He intended to chain himself to a federal Department of Energy office building, but discovered he was at the wrong location.

OLYMPIA -- A man spent hours chained to the wrong building Tuesday in an ill-planned effort to protest war with Iraq, police said. Jody Mason padlocked himself to an entrance of the Washington State Grange building at 924 Capitol Way S., thinking it was a sub-office of the U.S. Department of Energy.

Then when you add pot abuse to your observations, they become very light in their Birkenstocks.

His name wasn't Larry Finkelstein was it? ("Darma and Greg" fans will know who that is)

[jwalburg]

Saddened, saddened by chaining himself to wrong building.

Hey, wasn't he the tree sitter that after 42days found out he was actually in a NATIONAL PARK. Maybe not, all these goofballs look alike.

Hey! At least he's gotta be smarter than the other protester from Olympia who got run over by a bulldozer in Gaza a few days ago. Then again, I don't recall whether the Gaza Gal was chained to anything or had tied a weight to herself so she couldn't move.

Maybe both the guy chained up and the Gaza Gal went to the same classes in Olympia at the Darwin School of Activism and didn't pay attention to the part that tells them really not to endanger themselves or look any more stupid than they are. It'd be interesting to know how well those two knew each other...at least you'd think their circular paths would've intersected along the way at one time or another.

You know, there might be something in the water over there in Tumwater, Washington, at least Olympia Beer advertises it as being so. "It's The Water"

I'll ask again. What do they put in the water in Olympia?

Chained himself to the wrong building and didn't have the key...bet he swallowed it! FOFLOL!! (at least he hasn't thrown himself in front of a moving bulldozer...yet...)

Nevada Test Site

Thanks. That sounds like a very bad place to get too "attached" to equipment.

[69ConvertibleFirebird]

I think he's a democRAT congressman...

[DJ88]

OMG.....I am laughing so hard that tears are streaming down my face!!!!!!

They should have charged him with "Reckless Stupidity"...FOFLMAO......

[Toidylop]

There's a common denominator for these peaceniks... A bunch of delusional idiots!!!

[Fintan]

Even Ralph thought this was hysterical...

[far sider]

Dead,

I've said this before. You're sick, but you make me laugh.

But this guy's not totally stupid. At least he didn't chain himself in front of a bull dozer.

[labowski]

Did someone say "Lock Box"??? It's not the deficit stupid, it's the wrong building stupid.

Left wing idiot bump.

[Hildy]

What is GOING ON in Olympia????
