			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Greetings fellow Bizarros:</p>
<p>It just wouldn&#8217;t be Thanksgiving without a frozen turkey<br />
assault. Except this time the turkey was used against a<br />
perpetrator. </p>
<p>North Carolina authorities say a shopper clubbed an alleged<br />
carjacker with a frozen turkey as he tried to steal a woman&#8217;s<br />
car in a grocery store parking lot.</p>
<p>Police say 30-year-old Fred Louis Ervin of Raleigh stole<br />
money from a gas station before running across the street<br />
to a Harris Teeter store in a town just south of Raleigh.<br />
Garner police say he began beating Irene Moorman Bailey<br />
while stealing her car.</p>
<p>Other shoppers came to her rescue, including one who hit<br />
Ervin with the turkey. Police did not release the person&#8217;s<br />
name.</p>
<p>Despite serious head injuries, Ervin got away in Bailey&#8217;s<br />
car and hit several other cars as he fled. But police<br />
arrested him a short time later.</p>
<p>He faces several charges including assault inflicting serious<br />
injury. Ervin was hospitalized Monday in good condition, a<br />
hospital spokeswoman said.</p>

<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212; Missing dog found after almost 5 years &#8212;&#8212;&#8212;-</p>
<p>PLEASANTVILLE, N.J. &#8211; A Pleasantville, N.J., family said<br />
their pet dachshund, which went missing nearly five years<br />
ago, has been found by a Pittsburgh animal shelter. Edna<br />
Colon, 18, said her mother, Elda Arguello, received a<br />
letter from the Animal Rescue League of Western Pennsyl-<br />
vania informing her that the male dachshund, named Tootsie,<br />
was found as a stray in Pittsburgh. The shelter tracked a<br />
microchip implanted in the animal back to Arguello and her<br />
family, WPVI-TV, Philadelphia, reported Monday. Colon<br />
said several members of the family planned to travel to<br />
Harrisburg, Pa., for a reunion with their long-lost pet,<br />
who was about 6 months old when he went missing from<br />
Arguello&#8217;s yard nearly five years ago. &#8220;We appreciate the<br />
Animal Rescue League. If not for them and the microchip,<br />
we would never have seen Tootsie again. Because (the<br />
Animal Rescue League) understands animal lovers, they did<br />
all that they could to find us. We are so thankful to (the<br />
organization) and their work to get Tootsie back to our<br />
family,&#8221; Colon said. </p>

<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211; Pardoned turkey going to Disneyland &#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;</p>
<p>WASHINGTON &#8211; United Airlines says it will help the turkey<br />
that dodges Thanksgiving dinner at the White House make<br />
its getaway to Disneyland this week. The airline will strap<br />
the lucky bird into a first-class seat Wednesday for a non-<br />
stop flight from Washington to LAX and then on to Orange<br />
County and a date as grand marshal of the annual Thanks-<br />
giving parade at Disneyland. President George W. Bush is<br />
set to issue the traditional Thanksgiving pardon Wednesday,<br />
freeing the bird and a companion for the holidays. A United<br />
spokesman told Crain&#8217;s Chicago Business Disney annually<br />
buys out the entire first-class cabin for the turkey<br />
delegation, which includes the caged turkey and a group<br />
from the National Turkey Federation. </p>
<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;- Britain sells out of bacon chocolate &#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;</p>
<p>LONDON &#8211; The only British store to stock chocolate bars<br />
infused with bacon said its entire stock of the unusual<br />
candies sold out within 48 hours of hitting the shelves.<br />
Officials with Selfridges said the department store has<br />
ordered a new supply of Mo&#8217;s Bacon Bar, which features<br />
chunks of applewood smoked bacon and smoked salt in milk<br />
chocolate, from Chicago-based manufacturer Vosges Haut-<br />
Chocolat with an aim to have the candies back on sale in<br />
time for the Christmas holiday, The Daily Telegraph<br />
reported Monday. &#8220;Bacon and chocolate sounds like a strange<br />
combination, but the execution is fantastic,&#8221; said Ewan<br />
Venters, food and restaurant director for Selfridges. &#8220;It&#8217;s<br />
a real explosion of flavors and people love it.&#8221; &#8220;There has<br />
been a real revolution in luxury chocolate, as there was<br />
with wine a few years ago. People are much more knowledge-<br />
able about it and there is a growing demand for these high<br />
quality, exotic products instead of a box of Milk Tray,&#8221;<br />
Venters said. Vosges Haut-Chocolat&#8217;s line of unusual foods<br />
mixed with chocolate includes  mushrooms, sweet Indian<br />
curry and Mexican ancho and chipotle chillies. </p>

<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;- Couple thinks creaky couch is haunted &#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;</p>
<p>BRISTOL, England &#8211; Christine Strange and her husband,<br />
Nigel, say a couch in their home in the British city of<br />
Bristol makes mysterious noises because they believe it&#8217;s<br />
haunted. Strange, 52, said the creaking noise from the<br />
leather couch began randomly one recent weekend and the<br />
couple has been unable to determine what has been causing<br />
the strange noise, The Daily Telegraph said Monday. &#8220;One<br />
Sunday morning I sat down on it with a cup of tea and<br />
suddenly heard this odd squeaky noise,&#8221; she said. &#8220;I<br />
thought I must be going mad but Poppy, my Yorkshire<br />
terrier, heard it too.&#8221; Strange said her 54-year-old<br />
husband has also been mystified by the unusual noise that<br />
they have compared to a clock being wound up, the Telegraph<br />
reported. &#8220;It could be an alien for all we know,&#8221; Strange<br />
told the newspaper of the possible cause of the racket<br />
from the couch. &#8220;The noise is getting louder and louder.<br />
I&#8217;m scared it&#8217;s going to come bursting out one evening<br />
while we&#8217;re watching TV.&#8221; </p>

<p>Margaux is not the first person to act upon her impulses<br />
to mutilate a Barbie doll. She might be the first to make<br />
a living at it, though. I do not find myself repulsed or<br />
even frightened of her artwork. But I am frightened of her<br />
psychiatry bill. -Brian<br />
[Spend a lot of time taking out your aggressions on Barbie<br />
dolls, Brian? Or are you talking about a "friend".]</p>
<p>I think the comment about &#8220;Louisianians being illerate&#8221; is<br />
totally rude and uncalled for.  I lived in Louisiana for 54<br />
years and now I have moved to Texas and I havent found any<br />
difference in the literacy that I saw in Louisiana.<br />
[I'm sure you didn't find much difference in the literacy<br />
levels between Louisiana and Texas.]</p>
<p>Lewis, last issue you put a comment from John. This dumbass<br />
f*cker needs to be placed in what he refers to as &#8220;a<br />
relatively safe place&#8221; and see if he has the same opinion!<br />
He is also a stupid ass-hole by calling the people in mental<br />
health facilities &#8220;those poor bastards.&#8221;  He does not realize<br />
that people from all walks of life are admitted on mental<br />
health units because they know and realize they need help,<br />
which is a lot more than can be said for that dumb, poor,<br />
crazy bastard John. Your comments were more appropriate and<br />
are much more intelligent.  You seem to understand. -J.T.</p>
<p>Lewis, you wrote that, &#8220;Rodriguez was charged with domestic<br />
battery, child abuse and improper use of a condiment.&#8221; Im-<br />
proper use of a condiment??? U have got to be chitting me!<br />
If it was salsa, could this be considered as a hate crime?<br />
 -James<br />
[Giving salsa to a baby would be both an improper use of a<br />
condiment...whipping a sandwich at a baby (or at a mother<br />
who is driving with a baby in the car) would be considered<br />
child abuse.] </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Greetings fellow Bizarros:</p>
<p>Manny Rodriguez was apparently never taught not to throw<br />
food. Police in Port St. Lucie, Fla., say a man was<br />
arrested after allegedly striking his girlfriend with a<br />
sandwich while she was driving. </p>
<p>The police report of the incident alleges the 19-year-<br />
old victim picked up Emmanuelle Rodriguez, 19, from his<br />
mother&#8217;s home and began driving to their new apartment in<br />
Fort Pierce, Fla., while their 7-month-old son slept in<br />
the back seat of the vehicle. </p>
<p>The report said the victim claims Rodriguez became angry<br />
during the ride and &#8220;started to hit her in the arm and<br />
striking her in the face with a sandwich, knocking her<br />
glasses off her face.&#8221; </p>
<p>Rodriguez admitted arguing with his girlfriend and was<br />
quoted in the report as telling officers that he &#8220;didn&#8217;t<br />
want to hit her so he threw a sandwich at her, striking<br />
her in the face (and) knocking her glasses off.&#8221; </p>
<p>Police said Rodriguez was charged with domestic battery,<br />
child abuse and improper use of a condiment. He was<br />
released from the St. Lucie County jail after posting<br />
$7,500 bail. </p>

<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212; Students, prisoners face off in chess &#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;</p>
<p>TRENTON, N.J. &#8211; The seventh chess tournament between<br />
Princeton University and the New Jersey State Prison saw<br />
a surprising amount of prisoner victories, participants<br />
said. The &#8220;Inmates and Ivy&#8221; chess tournament brought six<br />
Princeton students to the prison in Trenton to test their<br />
chess skills against a collection of convicted felons and<br />
thieves, The (Newark) New Jersey Star-Ledger reported. The<br />
Princeton students, who played several simultaneous games<br />
against groups of prisoners, said the event usually ends<br />
with the school nearly sweeping every game, with an<br />
occasional single prisoner victory during the tournament.<br />
However, this year&#8217;s competition saw victories by prisoners<br />
Malvern Lewis, 43, who was convicted of killing his ex-<br />
girlfriend&#8217;s new boyfriend by stabbing; Carl Gooding, who<br />
was convicted of killing a man during a drug deal in 1987;<br />
and Alonzo Hill, 39, who is serving life after a carjacking<br />
that left a woman dead. &#8220;They&#8217;re good this year, but we<br />
have only one master and one ranked expert. In the past,<br />
the inmates have had to face much more phenomenal players,&#8221;<br />
said John Marshall, a chief actuary for insurance firm<br />
Benecard who took over running of the event after his<br />
company ceased to sponsor the tournament. </p>

<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212; Illinois man accused of burning toilets &#8212;&#8212;&#8212;-</p>
<p>CHICAGO &#8211; An 18-year-old man from Big Rock, Ill., allegedly<br />
set fire to a church bathroom stall and burned two portable<br />
toilets in a single night, police said. Police in Cary,<br />
Ill., said Thomas J. Meehan allegedly set fire to a St.<br />
Peter and Paul Church bathroom stall on Oct. 10, before<br />
conducting similar arson with two portable toilets, the<br />
Daily Herald newspaper in Arlington Heights, Ill., reported<br />
Thursday. Cary Police Detective Susan Ellis said an<br />
anonymous tip linked Meehan to the three fires, which<br />
caused limited damage and resulted in no injuries. Ellis<br />
said Meehan allegedly admitted to the three acts of arson<br />
but offered no explanation for the motive for his crimes.<br />
The Daily Herald said after being arrested last Friday on<br />
an unrelated criminal trespass charge, the suspected toilet<br />
arsonist was held on $70,000 bond pending a court<br />
appearance on the criminal charges. </p>
<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8211; Dog drove van through coffee shop window &#8212;&#8212;&#8212;</p>
<p>ST. JAMES, N.Y. &#8211; A St. James, N.Y., man said his dog was<br />
behind the wheel when his van crashed through the window<br />
of a coffee shop in the town. Bryan Maher said he had left<br />
his dog &#8212; appropriately named Bentley &#8212; inside the van<br />
with the engine running to allow the heater to function<br />
while Maher was inside the Cool Beanz coffee shop perform-<br />
ing at an open mike night, the New York Post reported<br />
Thursday. Maher theorized Bentley saw him through the van&#8217;s<br />
windows and began &#8220;pawing the glass, as dogs will do. He<br />
inadvertently hit the shift lever into neutral.&#8221; The van<br />
rolled down an incline and crashed through a window into<br />
the coffee shop. &#8220;There was Bentley sitting behind the<br />
window like he was saying, &#8216;Here I am!&#8217; He was as happy<br />
as can be,&#8221; Maher said. No one was injured in the crash.<br />
As for punishing the driving pooch, Maher joked: &#8220;He&#8217;s<br />
definitely going to lose his license.&#8221; </p>

<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8211; New jewelry made from dismembered Barbies &#8212;&#8212;&#8212;</p>
<p>NEW YORK &#8211; A New York designer says she was inspired to<br />
make a new brand of designer jewelry out of spliced apart<br />
Barbie dolls due to her own history with the toy. Designer<br />
Margaux Lange said on her Web site that by slicing apart<br />
the popular plastic doll and her boyfriend, Ken, she was<br />
able to create a jewelry line featuring Barbie&#8217;s dismember-<br />
ed body parts. &#8220;Barbie dolls were extremely significant in<br />
fueling my creative life as a child,&#8221; she said. &#8220;They were<br />
an invaluable tool for the expansion of my imagination then<br />
and, ironically, Barbie continues to be such for me as an<br />
adult.&#8221; &#8220;I am fascinated with who she is as a cultural<br />
icon, her distinguished celebrity status and the enormous<br />
impact she has had on our society.&#8221; The jewelry made from<br />
pieces of Barbie, a Mattel toy initially released in 1959,<br />
include necklaces made from Barbie&#8217;s severed breasts and<br />
earrings made out of the doll&#8217;s removed lips, ears and<br />
noses. Other unique offerings from Lange include rings<br />
featuring half of Ken&#8217;s face and bracelets that show off<br />
Barbie&#8217;s trademark smile. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Greetings fellow Bizarros:</p>
<p>I&#8217;d like to ask you a question. Have you ever had an office<br />
romance? 25 years ago this kind of thing was frowned upon and<br />
discouraged. But with both men and women pursuing full-time<br />
careers the office has become the first, best place to look<br />
for a little companionship. And companies are taking a more<br />
tolerant view of it. How can they afford not to? Practically<br />
half of their work force is sleeping with the other half. </p>
<p>But this hasn&#8217;t come without consequences. Vulnerability to<br />
lawsuits, employee turnover and serious workplace confron-<br />
tations are just some of the problems facing companies with<br />
a young, horny workforce, according to John A. Challenger,<br />
chief executive officer of Chicago&#8217;s global outplacement<br />
firm Challenger, Gray &#038; Christmas. </p>
<p>But that doesn&#8217;t mean the trend is going to reverse. In fact<br />
it will probably only increase. I&#8217;ve even seen it happen<br />
right here in our very own GopherCentral.com offices. And<br />
that leads me to our new poll. Have you ever had an office<br />
romance? Drop me an email and let me know&#8230;and don&#8217;t skimp<br />
on the intimate details! </p>
<p>And by the way, no, it wasn&#8217;t who was goofing around at the<br />
office.</p>
<p>Bizarrely,</p>
<p>Lewis</p>
<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;</p>

<p>&#8212;&#8212;- Couple arrested for sex at Bills-Jets game &#8212;&#8212;&#8211;</p>
<p>ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. &#8211; Security officers at Ralph Wilson<br />
Stadium in Orchard Park, N.Y., said a reported disturb-<br />
ance in a ladies&#8217; restroom turned out to be a couple<br />
having sex. Police said Alicia Venneman, 29, was charged<br />
with disorderly conduct and her boyfriend, Jeramy Kemper,<br />
31, was charged with trespassing and resisting arrest<br />
after they were caught having sex in the women&#8217;s bathroom<br />
across from Section 336 of the stadium during Sunday&#8217;s<br />
game between the Buffalo Bills and the New York Jets,<br />
The Buffalo (N.Y.) News reported Wednesday. &#8220;This was<br />
inappropriate behavior in public,&#8221; Scott Berchtold, Bills<br />
vice president of communications, said. &#8220;Our security<br />
staff reacted accordingly, and law enforcement officials<br />
were called in to handle the situation.&#8221; Orchard Park<br />
police and Erie County sheriff&#8217;s deputies said 37 arrests<br />
were made before, during and after the game. Law enforce-<br />
ment officials said it was well above the average number<br />
of arrests made surrounding a Bills home game.</p>

<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;- Farmer blames balloons for hen deaths &#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;</p>
<p>HEREFORD, England &#8211; A farmer in England&#8217;s Herefordshire<br />
county says low-flying hot-air balloons caused 30 of her<br />
hens to die after their eggs exploded inside of them. Abbi<br />
Vincent-Lloyd said the stress of seeing gigantic hot-air<br />
balloons over their heads led the hens to run for shelter<br />
in a panicked state that caused them to bump into one<br />
another and rupture the eggs inside of them, The Daily<br />
Telegraph reported Wednesday. Vincent-Lloyd said post-<br />
mortems performed on the hens found they died of<br />
peritonitis, an infection caused by their eggs bursting<br />
inside their bodies. &#8220;I had lost about 15 birds when I<br />
decided to have the vet do a post mortem on two of them,&#8221;<br />
the farmer said. &#8220;I told the vet about the hot-air balloons<br />
and jets flying low over the farm and straight away he said<br />
that was the cause.&#8221; &#8220;As soon as the gas is released to<br />
raise the balloon they go absolutely crazy,&#8221; she said.<br />
&#8220;It is absolute chaos, when they go into anything and that<br />
causes the egg to explode inside them. The fragments of the<br />
egg and its contents then infect them and then they die<br />
from it &#8212; it&#8217;s a horrible way to go.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;- Dogs predicted U.S. election outcome &#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;</p>
<p>COLD SPRING HARBOR, N.Y. &#8211; Organizers of a Cold Spring<br />
Harbor, N.Y., costume party for dogs and their owners said<br />
canines predicted the outcome of the U.S. presidential<br />
election. The organizers of Howl-ween, also known as<br />
Corky&#8217;s Canine Costume Party, said hundreds of dogs<br />
participated in the &#8220;Bark the Vote&#8221; election and cast<br />
ballots in the form of barking for Democrat Barack Obama<br />
and Republican John McCain. Corky Nightingale, who oversaw<br />
the barking election, said the dogs made the same choice<br />
that their human counterparts would make a few days later<br />
&#8211; the vote went to President-elect Barack Obama. &#8220;We feel<br />
it was a fair contest between the two candidates. Voter<br />
turnout was unprecedented,&#8221; Nightingale said. &#8220;We patiently<br />
awaited results this evening to see if our votes had any<br />
influence on the final outcome of the election. We are<br />
proud to know our barks were heard throughout the nation,&#8221;<br />
she continued. Howl-ween is held annually to raise funds<br />
for rescue dogs and other canine causes. This year&#8217;s party<br />
also included a costume parade through the town of Cold<br />
Spring Harbor. </p>

<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211; Boy charged after chip bag ripped &#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;-</p>
<p>STOCKHOLM, Sweden &#8211; Swedish prosecutors have brought<br />
charges against a 15-year-old boy accused of ripping<br />
another boy&#8217;s bag of chips. The teenager allegedly tore<br />
open the bag, spilling its contents onto the ground,<br />
while trying to snatch the chips out of the other boy&#8217;s<br />
hands, The Local reported Wednesday. Authorities said<br />
the owner of the chips then made a comment that led a<br />
14-year-old friend of a suspect to punch and kick the<br />
alleged victim. However, the accused attacker is too<br />
young to be charged under Swedish law. The 15-year-old<br />
was charged with unlawful dispossession due to the<br />
spilled chips and could face up to six months in prison<br />
if he is convicted. Prosecutors said the boy&#8217;s trial will<br />
also deal with charges of vandalism and theft of a pack<br />
of cigarettes in two separate incidents. </p>

<p>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> READER COMMENTS <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<</p>
<p>I&#8217;m far from being a prude but was printing the reader comment<br />
about semen and silk flowers necessary?<br />
[Yes. Absolutely. A lot of people don't know just how difficult<br />
it is to get semen stains out of silk flowers.]</p>
<p>Lewis, I&#8217;ve subscribed to your newsletter from work for two<br />
years. Now I quit and am sort of a &#8220;homemaker&#8221; in a way. I<br />
just got DSL hooked up and have an extra bill to pay now.<br />
Is there any way that I could make just enough a month to<br />
pay for the DSL from home with my computer? How is it done?<br />
I&#8217;m way up in Montana in the boonies, don&#8217;t know if that<br />
makes a difference. let me know if you can. Thanks, Babz<br />
[There's always web porn.]</p>
<p>Lewis, I think I am offended because you haven&#8217;t offended<br />
me. Please let me know if I am offended or not so I can<br />
wine and please, don&#8217;t send me any picks of your boobs!<br />
 &#8211;Straight man<br />
[Why would you want pics of TZ and Jethro?]</p>
<p>I get so sick of people blowing smoke up your ass! The reader<br />
commits are BS!  BN is ok but it isnt the second coming!<br />
Gesus people!! &#8211;Joey<br />
[A second coming hasn't happened since the wife and I took a<br />
second honeymoon two years ago.]</p>
<p>Lewis, Actually, Moller has been trying to develop a flying<br />
car since the 60s. Their first attempt, creatively named the<br />
Moller AirCar, was so heavy that it could only get airborne<br />
if there were no passengers. Even then, it could only achieve<br />
an altitude of about 10 feet. I don&#8217;t think they&#8217;re going to<br />
get a Ferrari airborne any time soon.<br />
[I could get a Ferrari airborne easily with enough explosives.]</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Greetings fellow Bizarros:</p>
<p>Testosterone is responsible for a lot of the stupidity that<br />
goes on in the world, but I find it hard to believe that<br />
the following story is merely a male pissing contest and<br />
did not involve some sort of drugs or alcohol. It does,<br />
however, feature a watermelon-eating dog.</p>
<p>A police report said the two unidentified brothers got into<br />
an argument this week in Boston after a dog belonging to<br />
one of the men consumed a watermelon owned by his brother.</p>
<p>The argument over the missing watermelon escalated into a<br />
shouting match between the siblings that allegedly caused<br />
one brother to repeatedly stab himself in order to show he<br />
didn&#8217;t care if he got hurt, police say.</p>
<p>Police officer Jamie Kennealy said when police arrived at<br />
the scene to help take the injured brother to the hospital,<br />
the other brother allegedly tried to barricade himself in<br />
a room.</p>
<p>Kennealy reported the brother used a saw and hammer to place<br />
pieces of wood across the door to keep police out of the room.</p>
<p>&#8220;During his barricading construction project he stated that<br />
he wasn&#8217;t going to get arrested for stabbing his brother,&#8221;<br />
he said, adding that police were content to leave him alone<br />
after learning the other man&#8217;s wounds were self-inflicted.</p>
<p>But my question is&#8230;do dogs really eat watermelon?</p>
<p>Bizarrely,</p>

<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212; Alleged robber foiled by text message &#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;</p>
<p>NEW YORK &#8211; An armored car guard has been arrested for<br />
a New York heist thanks to surveillance footage and a<br />
concerned text message to his co-worker, police allege.<br />
Police said 34-year-old Robert Blackmon allegedly made<br />
off with $330,000 during an armored car heist Tuesday,<br />
and then contacted the co-worker he robbed via text<br />
message to make sure she was all right, the New York<br />
Post reported. Blackmon was allegedly photographed six<br />
times by an automated teller machine camera during the<br />
heist, the report said. Police said Blackmon lied so he<br />
could get off of work Tuesday and then used a gun to rob<br />
his co-worker, Janell Nelson, as she was leaving a bank<br />
with a cash delivery. After being identified by his<br />
manager, Blackmon was arrested, the report said.<br />
Blackmon&#8217;s lawyer told Post &#8220;he would have to be fairly<br />
stupid to rob someone who knows him without a mask.&#8221;</p>

<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211; First fold-away bathroom invented &#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;-</p>
<p>BRADFORD, England &#8211; A British designer said he was inspired<br />
to create the first fold-away bathroom by the limited space<br />
in many apartments throughout Britain. Designer Paul Hernon<br />
said after his research indicated bathroom space in homes<br />
and rentals was limited, he went about creating the world&#8217;s<br />
first bathroom that can simply be folded up to save space,<br />
The Daily Telegraph said Friday. &#8220;I did lots of research<br />
and it became obvious to me that bathroom space was<br />
decreasing, particularly in apartments,&#8221; he told the<br />
newspaper. The 38-year-old inventor&#8217;s creation is an 8-foot-<br />
tall metal column whose shower attachments, storage units<br />
and toilet all rotate out for use. Once an individual&#8217;s<br />
bathroom activities are concluded, the items swivel back<br />
into place and form a unit that takes up less space than<br />
conventional bathroom units. Hernon told the Telegraph that<br />
the most alarming consumer aspect of his creation is its<br />
weight as the Vertebrae weighs in at 330 pounds, meaning<br />
the floor beneath it may need to be reinforced to support<br />
its weight.</p>
<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212; Disoriented man crashes into map store &#8212;&#8212;&#8212;-</p>
<p>NEW YORK &#8211; A New York man said he was confused about his<br />
route before he drove into the front of a map store in<br />
his sport utility vehicle. Rodney Bailey said he was<br />
disoriented after leaving a parking garage at about 8 a.m.<br />
Thursday and made a right turn that landed him and his<br />
Ford Expedition inside a Hagstrom Map shop, the New York<br />
Post reported. Police said two women were clipped by the<br />
SUV and were hospitalized with non-critical injuries. The<br />
crash was ruled an accident by police and Bailey was not<br />
charged with any wrongdoing. The map store re-opened later<br />
in the day despite the loss of a plate glass window.</p>

<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212; Police: Man used lighter in gas theft &#8212;&#8212;&#8212;-</p>
<p>WAUKESHA, Wis. &#8211; A man in Mukwonago, Wis., suffered burns<br />
to his hands after using a lighter for additional light<br />
while siphoning gas from a vehicle, police allege. Police<br />
said the unidentified suspect needed gas to travel to his<br />
home in Wauzeka, Wis., last weekend when he decided to<br />
siphon fuel from a van for his sport utility vehicle,<br />
Milwaukee&#8217;s WISN-TV reported Wednesday. When he was unable<br />
to see the level of gas in a container, the man used his<br />
lighter for additional light, police allege. Police said<br />
the flame ignited the flammable materials Saturday and the<br />
man&#8217;s hands were burned. Neighbors contacted the police,<br />
who arrested the man and an unidentified woman found with<br />
him. WISN-TV said the man faces charges of negligent use of<br />
burning materials and theft, while his alleged accomplice<br />
has been accused of being party to theft.</p>

<p>Lewis&#8230;About PETA&#8217;s request for Ben &amp; Jerry&#8217;s to use human<br />
milk in their ice cream&#8230;. I&#8217;ll volunteer to collect it!<br />
-Bill<br />
[You and the 15 other guys who wrote in with similar<br />
comments.]</p>
<p>Since breast mill can cost $3/ounce, Ben and Jerry&#8217;s would<br />
have to pay $384/gallon for breast milk. I don&#8217;t think you<br />
will see any breast milk in the ice cream anytime soon.<br />
-Russ<br />
[Not with all of the volunteers standing ready to collect<br />
it!]</p>
<p>Excuse me??? &#8220;sane and practical?&#8221; where have you been?<br />
Have you ever visited a PETA shelter where they kill all<br />
the unwanted animals in a inhumane way? I have and it made<br />
me sick. I could write 20 pages about PETA and what they<br />
are really like&#8230;Ethical Treatment of Animals&#8230;sure&#8230;..<br />
Al<br />
[They told me that sarcasm died around 1994 but I didn't<br />
believe them.]</p>
<p>So let me get this right, Google has higher hiring standards<br />
than the United States did for the job of president the<br />
last eight years, or for vice president this year? &#8211;Dianne<br />
[That's the difference between being elected and hired.]</p>
<p>lewis, i don&#8217;t think that guy who had problems with his<br />
numbers works for AIG, i think he probably works for the US<br />
Government.  Oh, and what about &#8220;Peanut Butter C Cups&#8221; for<br />
a flavor? -Cass<br />
[I'll put it on the list to send to Ben &amp; Jerry's.]</p>
