You know, when you decide to rob a mobile home, bringing a six-foot alligator along for the ride probably isn’t a good idea. What did he think. Did he think the alligator would defend him? Did he think the police would just let him go by because he had an alligator in the back seat? …

This Story Doesn’t Hold Any Water
Ok, a while back, I read a story about a guy, Chad Hudgens, a member of a sales team, who was held down while his team leader poured water down his nose as part of some kind of team-building exercise where he urged the team to work as hard to sell as Hudgens had to …
You Are Getting Sleepy…Sleepy…And Stupid…
From the country that brought you legalized public sex in the park comes wackiness of such a degree that it has to be a product of all that legalized pot. Unemployed Dutch people are being forced to sign up for what is being called past-life therapy in the hopes that getting in touch with old …

Smile For The Camera And Say "Stupid!"
You know, if you’ve just had your portrait done, you should pay the bill, because chances are you’d be pretty easy to identify, since the people you stiffed still have your portrait. I love the term photo fools.
The Best Laid Plans…
Ya know, it’s great to plan ahead. But when it comes to robbing a convenience store, maybe calling to make sure there’s cash in the till before you drive down there isn’t such a good idea. The scary thing is it worked in two previous robberies! How does that happen. Someone calls saying he’s coming …

I know you can be convicted of real crimes, but imitation crimes? Why on earth would you charge someone with possession of an imitation controled substance? It was crushed peanuts! That was all! But the guy’s in jail.
Give Me All Your Money! No Really, It’s Ok, You Know Me.
I just had an interesting and highly illogical conversation with a nice woman from the March of Dimes who was going around our building to sign people up for something called the Dime Plan, a monthly donation scheme to benefit the physically disabled. She told me that I didn’t have to part with any money …

Up, Up And Away In A Helium Balloon
Oh boy. Maybe the best thing that could happen to Lefkos Hajji would be to never find the $12000-ring intended for his fiance that he put in a helium balloon that was ripped from his hands by a gust of wind. If the accidental loss of a ring can make his wife to be so …
The Picture Of Stupidity
I’m confused. What law says you’re not allowed to snap a photo of under cover cops while they’re conducting a search warrant? If they’re under cover, there’s nothing to see. If there’s something to see, well I guess they blew their cover. But Randy Dean Sievert is being charged, and accused of violating his probation. …
Accuracy? What’s That?
If I’m a reporter, I would think the most important thing to do is to make sure I’m talking to the person I think I am. Ya know, if I’m supposed to be interviewing Hillary Rodham Clinton, I don’t accidentally interview Hillary Wicai Viers, communications director for another senator. But that’s exactly what John Goodall, …
