PRINCETON BOROUGH, N.J. -- A Princeton University economics professor and former presidential adviser was in critical condition Wednesday after being burned while carrying a blazing Christmas tree from his home.

David F. Bradford, who served as a top economic adviser to former President George H.W. Bush, suffered third-degree burns over half his body early Tuesday morning, police said.

Apparently stupidity is contagious.
Darwin awards, anyone?

Perfect for Jim Carrey. For him, playing a moron is typecasting.
