Thief identified by butt crack

Maybe this will become a new CSI technique:

Robert Russel Moore, 33, was sentenced to 10 years in prison for the burglary of an Arby’s in Prince Frederick, Md this past October. Moore was the assistant manager of the restaurant and was identified by clues from the surveillance tape.

Employees of the Arby’s said they recognized the burglar’s body shape, clothing and, when he bent over, the distinctive top portion of his buttocks, as being those of Moore. The owner of the restaurant said he had had to counsel Moore “more than once” about the inadvertent exposure of his butt crack.

First of all, why would this guy rob the store he worked at as an assistant manager? and two- if he is so “identifiable” why risk it? Lets call him the butt crack robber shall we.

This weeks theme is Growth

There were a lot of funny things I could have done with this theme but many of theme were potentially offensive so I decided to play it safe:


Growth

This reminds me of stories I hear at the hospital where we both work.

Patients that are given medications that are suppositories trying to eat them, and of course sticking medications that are not suppositories in places they just don’t belong. Not to mention all the other types of things people put where they don’t belong.

Do you have any stories of uhhh friends putting things in the wrong place?

I got busy over the last few days and didn’t have time to decide which caption won on the Wordless Wednesday contest. It looks like there were 5 entries but only two people told me which traffic engine they’d like their winning credits to go to, and only two left me their user name at said traffic engine. So if you entered the contest can you please give me the rest of the info that I asked for?

Lightning flew out her ass!

She was just brushing her teeth

A woman suffered severe burning to her anus after being struck by lightning which hit her in the mouth and passed right through her body.Squirrel brushing teeth?

Natasha Timarovic, 27, was cleaning her teeth at home when lightning struck the building.

She said: “I had just put my mouth under the tap to rinse away the toothpaste when the lightning must have struck the building.

I don’t remember much after that, but I was later told that the lightning had traveled down the water pipe and struck me on the mouth, passing through my body.

It was incredibly painful, I felt it pass through my torso and then I don’t remember much at all.”

Doctors at the city hospital where she was treated for burns to the mouth and rear said: “The accident is bizarre but not impossible”.

Of course it’s bizarre. Have you ever heard of such a thing happening before? I guess this is a lesson to all of us. Don’t brush your teeth (or shower, bathe etc) during a lightening storm. Or perhaps don’t bend down to sip water from the tap, use a plastic cup instead.

She was wearing rubber bathroom shoes at the time and so instead of earthing through her feet it appears the electricity shot out of her backside,” a medic told local television news. Ok, so I guess if you really must brush your teeth during a storm where you rubber soled shoes then. You might still get hurt but not as badly.

“It appears to have earthed through the damp shower curtain that she was touching as she bent over to put her mouth under the tap. If she had not been wearing the shoes she would probably have been killed by the blast.”

I wonder how long it will take the poor girl to recover. I wonder if her friends will call her “Lightening Butt” from now on? ;)

Womans cancer ultimately causes death of son and husband?

Taste Tester?

00030457

_________________________

A Bulgarian woman who killed her son was released from prison because of terminal cancer. She then went home and killed her husband.

The woman had been sentenced to 15 years in jail for killing her 29-year-old son with a garden hoe in April 2005 while he was sleeping. However, last month, authorities judging her to be in the final stages of cancer let her go home to pass away in peace with her husband at her side. Unfortunately things must have gone terribly wrong once she was home because that was where she stabbed her husband in the throat with a knife.

“It was established she was in the last stage of cancer, she had it all over her body,” said a spokeswoman for the Bourgas regional police. They had presumed she was feeling bad and that she would treat herself and rest. Little did they know that she would become aggressive and end up killing her husband.

The woman, 57 years of age at the time of her second murder, was from a village in eastern Bulgaria and she has been taken into custody again and is awaiting a new trial.

Even in jail her aggression towards her family continues, she’s threatened that, if she is released again, she will kill her second son as well.

I kind of feel sorry for the woman. I know that cancer can change a persons personality, particularly when it affects the brain, but I bet there were some deep seated feelings of hurt and resentment that set off her murdering spree. Perhaps she’d been an abused wife and mother before becoming ill with cancer?
