I Got A Tip For Ya!

April 25th, 2009

Greetings fellow Bizarros:

Whoever said young people aren’t industrious any more? Take
this young go-getter for example. Police in New Jersey said
a man tricked patrons at two restaurants into giving him a
total of $186 by pretending to be a waiter.

Investigators said a man in his 20s with a spiky hair style
approached two women dining at Hobson’s Choice restaurant
in Hoboken and accepted their $90 cash payment for their
meal.

The man was next spotted at Margherita’s Pizza and Cafe at
about 9 p.m. the same day and asked three women at a table
if they were ready to pay.

“He took the money from them and walked straight out of the
restaurant,” said Anthony Buzzerio, the restaurant manager.

Buzzerio said the restaurant was forced to comp the women’s
bill.

“Once we saw that they had put the money on the table — we
wouldn’t charge the customers twice,” he said.

“This is the first time I’ve come across something like this,”
Buzzerio said. “Hopefully he gets what’s coming to him.”

Well, he got nearly 200 bucks coming to him. That’s not bad
for having some balls.

Bizarrely,

Lewis

CHERITON, England – British police said an 89-year-old
man took a wrong turn on his mobility scooter and wound

8 mph on the shoulder of the M20 in Cheriton, England,

but mistakenly taken the wrong junction and ended up on
the motorway.”

———— Couple wed as ‘Shrek’ characters ————-

BARNSTAPLE, England – A British couple said they spent
three hours in makeup before their wedding so they could
walk down the aisle as characters from the “Shrek” films.
Christine England, 40, and Keith Green, 44, of Barnstaple,
England, used green paint and costumes to turn themselves
into Princess Fiona and Shrek while guests at the wedding
dressed as other characters from the animated films,
including Donkey and the Gingerbread Man, the Daily Mail
reported Thursday. “Every girl wants a fairytale wedding
and I got one — with a bit of a twist. It was a real
laugh,” England said. “The idea just came to me. I knew
what we would go as them because Keith looks just like
Shrek.” The couple said they hired a makeup artist to
design their wedding getup. “It was a very strange
experience to say the least, but a thoroughly enjoyable
one. We love the films and my wife tells me I have
resemblance to Shrek,” Green said.

The Bromsgrove, England woman who complained about her
neighbor’s naked lawn gnomes would never survive in Oslo,
Norway. There are statues of naked people all over Oslo.
–Harold
[I'd be more impressed if there were just naked people
all over Oslo. I happen to think Norwegian women are hot.]

The Extreme Hand Boxing was unimaginable stupidity. I bet
they were brain dead before they even started.

Lewis: The woman in England needs to get 2 more gnome
statues. The one of the male and female nude gnomes having
sex, and the one of the gnome standing there giving the
finger. (That one should be pointed at the pain in the ass
neighbor’s house.) Besides, kids are like most of us and
think garden gnomes are kind of ugly, and ignore them.
(yes both statues are available.) -Bill
[Hey! There's a difference between art and porn...I'm just
not sure what it is. But there's a difference!]

Lewis, yes I had an “office” romance 26 1/2 years ago, and
we recently celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary. They
don’t all work out this way, but, I figure if you start
dating someone that you’ve worked with for awhile, at least
you know they don’t mind working and contributing to the
financial side of a marraige. -Bob
[That is as good a basis to start a relationship on as any,
I guess.]

I have been a Bizarre News subscriber for many years. It
was always a bright spot in my inbox at the office. I retired
at the end of 2008 so now I get BN at home. The first thing
I did upon retiring was get thyroid cancer. While recovering
from surgery (successful, thank you very much) I still look
forward to my regular dose of BN. Keep the good times comin’
and thanks for all the laughs. You do make a difference.
