Title: Headlines
Post by: Dave W on May 08, 2008, 08:54:26 PM

I scour the  news so you won't have to:  :mrgreen:

Best headline I've seen this year (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/7390109.stm), courtesy of the BBC.

From Norwalk, Connecticut, a woman files a $100 claim against the city because her son stepped in dog poop (http://www.stamfordadvocate.com/ci_9190168?source=most_viewed).

From Nebraska, a father actually calls the cops because someone gave his son a wedgie (http://northplattebulletin.com/index.asp?show=news&action=readStory&storyID=14427&pageID=3&showTB=true). The news story is great, it reads like a parody from The Onion, but the man really did make a complaint.

 "“You might get away with that in Lincoln or Omaha,” the spokesman said. “But we’re not going to allow wedgies in North Platte.”

The spokesman said they planned to put a stop to the wedgies before they escalate into full-blown melvins or atomic wedgies."

 This is absolutely priceless!!!!!!!! :toast:

Not sure about atomic wedgies, but I like the full-blown Melvins
