Greetings fellow Bizarros:
Here is the rule…when a woman in Texas asks you to do
the dishes, you should do them, and if she tells you to
leave you should really do it…or else you might end up
like this poor fellow.
Police say a 20-year-old, Fort Worth woman faces an
aggravated assault charge after she bit her boyfriend,
broke a picture frame across his face and swung at him
with a sword during an argument about him not doing the
dishes.
The 21-year-old man told police that he became involved
in an argument because the woman was upset that the dishes
were not clean. Police said the woman told the man to leave
the apartment, but he refused.
The woman then tried to physically remove the man and
during the ensuing struggle she bit his right shoulder
and broke a picture frame across his face, causing visible
cuts.
Not satisfied, the woman then grabbed a 2-foot long sword
and swung it at him, but missed.
The woman was released from jail after posting a $10,000
bond. The man and woman had lived together for four months.
As a matter-of-fact, let’s simplify the rule. Just don’t
live with women from Texas. That should cover all the
bases.
Bizarrely,
Lewis

+———- Bizarre Tidbits About Child Actors ————+
Back in the “Golden Age” of TV, situation comedies present-
ed audiences with the image of an ideal Middle Class
America. In reality, however, many of the child actors in
these “perfect” TV families had less-than-perfect lives
offscreen…
Father Knows Best:
Billy Gray (who played the son, Bud) spent 45 days in jail
on marijuana charges and later dropped out from society.
He told TV Guide, “I look back on the show and see it as
a lie, a lie that was sold to the American people.”
Lauren Chapin (who played the youngest daughter, Kathy)
also had drug troubles. She became addicted to heroin and
speed, and did jail time for forging a check.
The Patty Duke Show:
From 1963-66, Duke starred in the popular series, but
gradually the stress of playing two roles – herself and
her look-alike cousin – caught up with her; she became
depressed, anorexic and eventually an alcoholic and drug
addict.
The Partridge Family:
After the show ended, Danny Bonaduce developed drug
problems. By age 21, he had squandered $350,000 in
savings on his cocaine habit.
Susan Dey, who was 16 when the show began, later claimed
to have suffered from severe anxiety which resulted in
anorexia and bulimia.
The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet:
Fans of Ricky Nelson were shocked when his autopsy
revealed that he had been freebasing cocaine just prior
to the plane crash that killed him on Dec. 31, 1984 in
DeKalb, Texas.
Family Affair:
In 1976, Annissa Jones, who played “Buffy” on the series,
was found dead of an overdose after a party in Oceanside,
California. The coroner reported that Jones had “the
largest combination of drugs in any cases I’ve encountered.

———- Goodwill gives back $500,000 statue ———–
MIAMI – The president of Goodwill South Florida said a
sculpture donated by an investment firm will be returned
after it was found to be worth $500,000. Dennis Pastrana,
president and chief executive officer of Goodwill South
Florida, said the 2 1/2-ton bronze statue, which depicts
a young ballerina, was donated to Goodwill’s Miami ware-
house in May by an investment firm that asked to remain
anonymous, The Miami Herald reported. Pastrana said the
piece was identified as the work of famed sculptor Sterett-
Gittings Kelsey and officials contacted officials at the
investment firm to inform them of the piece’s $500,000
value. He said the firm accepted an offer to return the
item and promised to compensate Goodwill some other way.
———- Robbery victim hit with beer gift ———–
SANTA ANA, Calif. – A robbery victim in Santa Ana, Calif.,
is expected to recover from injuries he suffered when he
was hit with a beer bottle he gave his assailant, police
said. Santa Ana police Cmdr. Jeff Owens said the unidenti-
fied victim was hit in the head with a beer bottle by one
of two suspects whom the victim had just given two free
beers, the Orange County (Calif.) Register reported.
Police said the unidentified suspects stopped the victim
as he was leaving a 7-Eleven with a 12-pack of beer early
Thursday morning. After the two men asked for and received
beers from the victim, one of the suspects smashed his
bottle over the victim’s head. The two suspects then fled
the scene with what was left of the 12-pack.
——– Dachshund, 20, may be world’s oldest dog ———
SHREWSBURY, England – A British man said Guinness World
Records is investigating whether his dachshund, age
20 years and six months, is the world’s oldest dog. Peter
Jones, 68, of Shrewsbury, England, said he believes the
dachshund, Otto, is the world’s oldest living dog after
the death of a 21-year-old dachshund in the United States,
the Daily Mail reported Thursday. “When I saw this dog
had died and he was the oldest in the world, I thought
Otto must be getting on to being the oldest as well,”
Jones said of the canine, who has reached 147 in dog
years. “I thought it would be good to see if Otto is the
oldest. My vet said to me that they hadn’t got any older
dogs going to see them. “He will follow me wherever I go
and doesn’t go running off. If I go out, I come back and
he’s sat by the door waiting. He’s got a bit of arthritis
but apart from that, he’s quite well.” Jones said he has
submitted a certificate proving Otto’s age to Guinness
World Records.
