Man is hopping mad over losing leg!

by

In November two North Carolinian men fought over a bizarre custody dispute. The battle wasn’t over children. Uh huh … it was over an amputated leg!

John Wood missed payments at a storage facility where his barbecue was kept and the item was auctioned off. Unfortunately for him he forgot that he’d kept his old limb inside the barbecue.

Shannon Whisnant, the BBQ’s new owner has been busy charging curious residents of Maiden to see the dismembered appendage. She plans to keep it and she’s threatened legal action if Mr. Wood attempts to reclaim it.

Now isn’t that bizarre?






Nude runner causes multiple accidents

by

A drunk man who was running naked into highway traffic and subsequently caused three accidents has been arrested.

Two people stopped their cars and tried to help the 26 year old, Ardonas Gilbert of Chester P.A., who had been running naked along the southbound lanes of Interstate 95 this past Monday night. However Ardonas refused their help and allegedly cursed at them and tried to punch them says a Delaware State Police officer.

After hitting the people trying to help him, Gilbert then ran out into traffic and caused three separate accidents as motorists tried to avoid hitting the man. Luckily no one was seriously injured.

Gilbert was charged with two counts of assault and a single count of being drunk on a highway. What? No indecent exposure?

Underwear telephone stalker jailed!

by

A telephone stalker obsessed with underwear made a big mistake when a gym opened across the street from the apartment that he shared with his mother.

Paul Kavanagh was caught on film by detectives as he leaned over his London apartment balcony while making calls to the gym’s female receptionists.

This month Kavanagh was sentenced to two and a half years jail. He admitted to making 15,000 or so harassing calls to women asking them questions about their underwear. He’d call posing as a clothing researcher and claim to be gathering marketing data for a retailer.

Kavanagh had been making these calls for 12 years before he was caught. He’d usually start off his conversations with questions about the womens socks and sweaters, but then he would move on to their underwear and make lewd suggestions to his victims.

Judge Peter Testar concluded that Kavanagh had been “making these calls for the purposes of sexual gratification and, I must say to my mind, for the purposes of cruelty.”

The calls were all placed using unregistered pay as you go phones. When Kavanagh was finally caught he was, as stated above, targeting the female staff at the gym by commenting on their clothes and the way they wore their hair.

Exploding lighter shuts down neighborhood

by

Sheriffs deputies mistook an exploding cigarette lighter for gunfire and dove to the ground, called in reinforcements and shut down a neighborhood for hours!

“We have a lot of unusual things happen in our business, and we expected the unexpected. It’s better to be safe than sorry,” Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Lt. Robert Craton said.

The lighter in question belonged to one of the two people that had been stopped around noon for loitering and drinking alcohol in Zappopan Park. While the two were being questioned the lighter was placed on the hood of a police car. When the lighter exploded shrapnel went everywhere and the two deputies and two suspects went down to the ground when they thought they were being fired upon.

Reinforcements were called in and the neighborhood was locked down for two hours. Deputies clutching shotguns and pistols leaned on squad cars and a command post went up at a nearby Wal-Mart Supercenter parking lot.

Paramedics and dozens of deputies were on hand as helicopters buzzed the area. Two hours later, a special enforcement officer discovered the culprit – the Bic lighter.
