Not funny ...

He was alive when I read the story. Any time I'm mentioned in the papers, they always get the truth twisted, so it's no surprise that the story about this guy was incomplete too. Add my memory to the mix and it's easy to see how my post had some inaccuracies.

I just thought the news a little odd that morning. The penis crushed at Starbucks, this guy, and Preston Manning trying his French in Quebec: He wanted to do some fishing and whale watching. The locals tried to tell him he couldn't fish for whales.

I'm truly sorry for the unfortunate guy and his family. I didn't want to add to their grief. I assumed it was another 'drunk guy' thing we read about in the Darwin awards.

Thank-you for putting me straight about this.

PW.
