No money for a car repair?

Don’t worry! Just pull out that handy dandy duct tape and repair your car yourself.

Wouldn’t you be a bit mad too if you drove up to a banks drive-through window and you were told that the teller only had candy?

That happened to a man in Stone Lake, Wis recently when he drove up in his ATV.

Angered the man then held up a bag that he claimed contained a bomb, but the teller told him all she had was lollipops since her till had already been emptied. I guess he was perhaps attempting to rob the bank? In the end he drove away in frustration.

A would-be mugger ended up apologizing to his victim stating that he had the wrong guy.

The 36 year old man pulled a knife on a man who was unloading his groceries just outside of his home. This occurred in Fond du Lac.

The mugger asked for money and tried to punch the 27 year old man, however another man intervened by pulling the mugger away.

The suspect returned sometime later to apologize stating that he mistook the victim for someone else. He was arrested later that evening as he left a convenience store and held in the Fond du County jail on a charge of disorderly conduct and use of a dangerous weapon.

Can you imagine being attacked and then having the mugger come back and say sorry I though you were someone else? Strange!

We’ve all heard stories about home owners who refuse to sell when big commercial projects are planned to be built around their property … well 86 year old Edith Macefield is another property owner who refused to move from her home when developers from Seattle decided to build a commercial property in her neighborhood.

Macefield refused an offer of 1 million dollars to move.

They’ve decided to go ahead with their project and her home will have a five story construction project around and beside her home.

“I don’t want to move. I don’t need the money. Money doesn’t mean anything,” she said.

There’s one house downtown here in Toronto that looks so tiny with a huge 20 story building almost on top of it. I imagine that Mrs. Macefield’s home will look like that too!
