Can People Really Be This Dense?

Not a day goes by when I'm not completely blown away by the stupidity of some people. For example:

Back in July I attended a family reunion at Yellowstone National Park. One morning, we decided to take a horseback ride up a mountain for an old fashioned cowboy breakfast. While there, I struck up a conversation with one of the cook hands.

He told me about this lady (from the East coast) who just a few weeks earlier asked him while enjoying her breakfast, "What time they have to start rounding up all the animals so they can lock them up for the night?" - Yeah, I know.

Ten Traditional Skills That Are Dying Out

Well, now comes word someone (from where, I don't know) thinks Park Rangers at Yellowstone should "train the bears to hang out where they can be seen." That's what they left on a feedback form left at one of the park offices.

The note read: "Our visit was wonderful but we never saw any bears. Please train your bears to be where guests can see them. This is an expensive trip to not get to see bears."

When asked about the note, a Park Ranger responded best by saying, "There's apparently considerable overlap between the intelligence of the smartest bears and the stupidest tourists."
