Greetings fellow Bizarros:
The Guinness Book of World Records is full of some bizarre
record-holders. I am always surprised at the lengths some
people will go to get their name in that book. And here is
a startling…and somewhat gross example.
A Texas body modification enthusiast said he broke a Guinness
World Record by receiving 1,197 piercings in a single day.
Jeremy Stroud said Arlington body modification artist Tyson
Turk spent about five hours May 2 inserting 800 needles into
his back, 300 in his right arm, 50 in his leg and about 20
in his left arm.
He said the needles were removed at the end of the day but
they left scars all over his body.
“They’re so close together that they leave a line. It kind
of looks like I had stitches from my wrist all the way up
to my shoulder,” he said.
Stroud said two emergency medical technicians were on hand
during the record attempt as well as a witness and a photo-
grapher to support his bid to make it into the record book.
He said the original plan was 2,000 piercings, but the pain
from the needles eventually started to catch up to him.
“I made it to 1,200 and my body was getting ready to shut
down,” he said. “I had no idea what I was getting into.”
Bizarrely,
Lewis

——————- Man begins monthlong plane ride ——————–
NEW YORK — A New York man who lived in an IKEA store for a
week says he is targeting his “irrational fear” of flying
by remaining on an airplane for a full month. Mark Malkoff,
who made headlines last year for living in one of the Swedish
home products giant’s stores for a week, said he struck a
deal with budget airline Airtran to allow him to spend a
month taking as many as 12 flights per day. “The only time
I might get off is if I have to switch planes,” he said.
Malkoff, a comedian, writer and filmmaker, said his deal
with Airtran allows him to document the experience on video.
He said his goal is to overcome an irrational fear of flying.

—————- Lost class ring returned to woman, 97 —————–
MEMPHIS — A Memphis woman who found a 1929 high school
class ring while raking leaves in a lot said she traced the
item back to its 97-year-old owner. Misty White said she
found the Central High School ring, which bore the initials
“AMM,” while raking a lot as part of a “Save Libertyland”
event for cleaning defunct amusement park Libertyland.
“Something made me keep raking leaves,” White said. “It was
under two years of leaves, and the ring just popped out.”
White said she found the school’s 1929 yearbook at a library
and identified the ring’s owner as Anna Maude Mahaffey. “It
gave me great pleasure to get it back,” Mahaffey White said.
“It has a sentimental value.”

I think this Dr. Yuri Labvin theory should be investigated
as much as any other. If proved true, like Roswell, we would
probably never know for sure though. -Tony
[What, you think your government would cover up something
like proof of space aliens displaying incredible, advanced
technological weapons and abilities? You don't have a lot
of trust, do you?]

Lewis, here’s one for you: SOUTHWORTH — A man trying to
loosen a stubborn lug nut blasted the wheel with a 12-gauge
shotgun, injuring himself badly in both legs. The 66-year-
old man had been repairing a Lincoln Continental for two
weeks at his home and had gotten all but one of the lug
nuts off the right rear wheel before getting frustrated.
From about arm’s length, the man fired the shotgun at the
wheel and was “peppered” in both legs with shot and other
debris, with some injuries as high on his body as his chin.
[Yes, but did the nut come off?]
As a first time reader of your newsletter I must say that
it all is very intersting and that I look foraward to more.

same thing?]
Lewis, there has been a lot of talk lately about the economy
and the trillions of dollars in deficit spending, but I have
an idea. The solution isn’t in the hands of those who cast
the ballots, so long as all we have to elect are politicians.
90% of all federal officials who get elected are considered
wealthy before they get the job. Why would these people care
about the average Joe? Lets change the rules for getting onto
the ballot, or limit campaign spending, so more average people
can get on the ballot. Even now, people are tracking the “best
potential candidates” for president by how much money they can
raise. Or, we can adopt the system one of my fave authors con-
ceived, when elected, the officials personal wealth becomes
part of the treasury, if the country’s economy does well, they
make the money back, if the economy is weak during their term,
they lose it all. A great incentive for actually working for
the country I think. -Jonathan
[I like the way you think, Jonathan. Tie a politician's
personal success to the success of the country. You want to
see waste and inefficiency reduced? Think about the kind of
people that would open elections up to.]
