Greetings fellow Bizarros:

Testosterone is responsible for a lot of the stupidity that
goes on in the world, but I find it hard to believe that
the following story is merely a male pissing contest and
did not involve some sort of drugs or alcohol. It does,
however, feature a watermelon-eating dog.

A police report said the two unidentified brothers got into
an argument this week in Boston after a dog belonging to
one of the men consumed a watermelon owned by his brother.

The argument over the missing watermelon escalated into a
shouting match between the siblings that allegedly caused
one brother to repeatedly stab himself in order to show he
didn’t care if he got hurt, police say.

Police officer Jamie Kennealy said when police arrived at
the scene to help take the injured brother to the hospital,
the other brother allegedly tried to barricade himself in
a room.

Kennealy reported the brother used a saw and hammer to place
pieces of wood across the door to keep police out of the room.

“During his barricading construction project he stated that
he wasn’t going to get arrested for stabbing his brother,”
he said, adding that police were content to leave him alone
after learning the other man’s wounds were self-inflicted.

But my question is…do dogs really eat watermelon?

Bizarrely,

Lewis

——— Alleged robber foiled by text message ———–

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

———– First fold-away bathroom invented ————-

BRADFORD, England – A British designer said he was inspired
to create the first fold-away bathroom by the limited space
in many apartments throughout Britain. Designer Paul Hernon
said after his research indicated bathroom space in homes
and rentals was limited, he went about creating the world’s
first bathroom that can simply be folded up to save space,
The Daily Telegraph said Friday. “I did lots of research
and it became obvious to me that bathroom space was
decreasing, particularly in apartments,” he told the
newspaper. The 38-year-old inventor’s creation is an 8-foot-
tall metal column whose shower attachments, storage units
and toilet all rotate out for use. Once an individual’s
bathroom activities are concluded, the items swivel back
into place and form a unit that takes up less space than
conventional bathroom units. Hernon told the Telegraph that
the most alarming consumer aspect of his creation is its
weight as the Vertebrae weighs in at 330 pounds, meaning
the floor beneath it may need to be reinforced to support
its weight.

——— Disoriented man crashes into map store ———-

NEW YORK – A New York man said he was confused about his
route before he drove into the front of a map store in
his sport utility vehicle. Rodney Bailey said he was
disoriented after leaving a parking garage at about 8 a.m.
Thursday and made a right turn that landed him and his
Ford Expedition inside a Hagstrom Map shop, the New York
Post reported. Police said two women were clipped by the
SUV and were hospitalized with non-critical injuries. The
crash was ruled an accident by police and Bailey was not
charged with any wrongdoing. The map store re-opened later
in the day despite the loss of a plate glass window.

——— Police: Man used lighter in gas theft ———-

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

Lewis…About PETA’s request for Ben & Jerry’s to use human
milk in their ice cream…. I’ll volunteer to collect it!
-Bill
[You and the 15 other guys who wrote in with similar
comments.]

Since breast mill can cost $3/ounce, Ben and Jerry’s would
have to pay $384/gallon for breast milk. I don’t think you
will see any breast milk in the ice cream anytime soon.
-Russ
[Not with all of the volunteers standing ready to collect
it!]

Excuse me??? “sane and practical?” where have you been?
Have you ever visited a PETA shelter where they kill all
the unwanted animals in a inhumane way? I have and it made
me sick. I could write 20 pages about PETA and what they
are really like…Ethical Treatment of Animals…sure…..
Al
[They told me that sarcasm died around 1994 but I didn't
believe them.]

So let me get this right, Google has higher hiring standards
than the United States did for the job of president the
last eight years, or for vice president this year? –Dianne
[That's the difference between being elected and hired.]

lewis, i don’t think that guy who had problems with his
numbers works for AIG, i think he probably works for the US
Government.  Oh, and what about “Peanut Butter C Cups” for
a flavor? -Cass
[I'll put it on the list to send to Ben & Jerry's.]
