Punch drunk love

They say that drinking and driving don't mix. You know what else doesn't mix with drinking? Ex-girlfriends, as this dumbass found out:

Firefighters had to tear though a wall to rescue an intoxicated man who became stuck while trying to climb down a chimney into the residence of his former girlfriend.

Alejandro Valencio said he was drunk when he got into the chimney about 3:30 a.m. Tuesday.

"Everyone do stupid things sometimes when they're drunk," he said.

Yes, Alejandro, everyone "do." But most of us limit things to phone calls that we regret the next day.

Firefighters requested assistance from police after arriving because they said Connie Deweese was hampering the rescue effort by blocking the fireplace.

"I told them to leave him in the chimney and let him die," said Deweese, who received misdemeanor citations for disorderly conduct and interfering with a firefighter.

I guess his little stunt didn't exactly win her back over. But Alejandro's apparently got a never-say-die romantic spirit...

Valencio returned to the residence after being treated at a hospital and was filmed by a local TV station as Deweese hit him with a garbage can and pelted him with bottles.

"Get off my porch, and don't you ever come back here," she yelled.

Oh, I have a feeling he'll be back.
