Peggy Fleming run over by Biden’s Motorcade at Olympics. Only a few days into the 2010 Vancouver Winter Games and already another tragedy occurs. Figure skater and 1968 gold medalist Peggy Fleming suffered compound fractures in both legs when she was accidentally run over by a motorcade carrying the Vice President. Details are sketchy, but witnesses say Fleming was seen trying to skate slaloms between the slow-moving vehicles as a daredevil stunt while the cars were traveling along an icy road just outside of Whistler, B.C. The stunt was being filmed for an upcoming Jackass movie, expected to be released this summer. Apparently Fleming lost her balance and fell beneath the V.P.’s Lincoln Town Car, pinning her legs beneath the wheels. Fleming was taken to a nearby hospital. No word yet on her condition.

Angry teabagger flies plane into IRS building. An anti-tax blogger wrote a six-page diatribe, then took things to the next level by flying his private plane into an Internal Revenue Service building in Texas, killing himself and injuring several people on the ground. Andrew Joe Stack, 53, apparently wanted to become a martyr and hoped his just reward in paradise would be 72 Sarah Palins.

Airline passenger starts fistfight with Mitt Romney. The altercation began as the Air Canada flight, bound from Vancouver to Los Angeles, was about to take off. The former Massachusetts governor was listening to his iPod when the passenger seated in front of him leaned over the back of his seat and began punching him for no apparent reason. Romney then punched the assailant in the jaw several times, knocking him unconscious. The plane returned to the gate where agents removed the man on a stretcher. The flight resumed a little behind schedule, with elated fellow passengers cheering Romney and buying him several drinks (non-alcoholic, of course).
