Yet another dumbass of the day award. This one goes to a so-called artist, Trevor Corneliusien, who chained his legs together in the desert, and lost the key. The article doesn’t really mention why he chained his legs together, so I’ll just have to speculate.

I think that Trevor either wanted to draw legs chained together, as mentioned in the end of the Boston.com article, or the artist just wanted to make sure he finished his art project before unchaining himself. Irrespective of the reason, this is really stupid. Trevor is a Dawrin award wannabe. I know, I know, he’s only 26. I don’t know whether he’s procreated or not yet, but we can hope.

Once he found that he was no longer in possession of the key to unlock himself, he “hopped” back to town. It was 5 miles of hopping, and it took him almost 12 hours. At least he remembered to put his shoes back on before beginning his hopscapade. Perhaps he had been drinking too many hops-based drinks.

BTW, where is Baker, California anyway? I know where Bakersfield is, and its fairly close to the desert, if you don’t consider it to be desert itself. The town was dry enough to be a desert when I drove through it last in 2000. That’s another story though.
