14 children taken to hospital after collapsing during school athletics meet

Apparently, a number of kids were in somewhat serious condition. You can read the reactions under the article.

"So..." he thinks,"I should ask wifey what her opinion is." 

He reads the article to his wife. 

She casually replies,"City people are weak." He asks for a little more information. 

She raises an eyebrow, as if to get a better look at him and says, matter-of-factly, "They don't have the endurance. That's what they get from being reared in a way that doesn't expose them to nature, to the elements." 

The short translation would have read:

Wifey shrugs, “They’re wimps.”

To some people, that might seem a bit harsh. What went through his head was a mixed up scene, like from National Lampoon's European Vacation, except this time, a cross-dressed Predator delivers the line, "It's just a flesh-wound."

Question and answer: 

Him: So much for compassion in the land of Buddhism?

 Her: It’s complicated.

Him: Yes. It is.

Now, we're kind of wondering if we shouldn't have used traditional traps.  Downside is, in this heat, we'd only discover it by smell if we weren't using the cages. 

Anyway...city life must be a little different. 

Night y'all.
