Recently, a man living in Evesham, New Jersey was presented with a golden opportunity for revenge against the person who he felt had unjustly wronged him in the past. It just so happens that the man this guy was looking to get even with, was the same police officer who had had given him a ticket a few months back for failing to pull over for a traffic violation. The opportunity arose while the man was working at his job as a cook at the Good Foods To Go restaurant and noticed the police officer walking in to order a sandwich for lunch. After realizing who he was, the cook prepared the meal, then decided to reach down his pants and sprinkle the officer's sandwich with some of his own pubic hair... Yummy!

 The officer must have taken a bite of his sandwich and received a mouth full of delicious body hair because he became very upset and placed the cook immediately under arrest. I'm thinking there had to be a substantial amount of hair on the sandwich that must have prevented the cook from saying that the hair must have gotten into the food by accident. But if there is a heaping pile of hair, so thick that you couldn't even see what you're eating, it would seem very hard for the cook to claim that he wasn't responsible. The article didn't state what the man was arrested for but it went on to say that he was bailed out of jail by his wife after spending 4 hours behind bars. The man was also subsequently fired from his job as the restaurant's cook. I'm not sure if this happens a lot to the police officers in this town but they asked the local paper not to run the story in fear that there would be people trying to copycat what this cook had done. The paper ran the story anyway.

 With the reputations that some law enforcement officers have in our communities due to their rampant abuse, corruption or just plain incompetence, I'm sure there would be a lot of people who would like the chance to do what this cook has been accused of doing. Many of them with a great, big smile on their face. In fact, tampering with police officer's food probably happens more often than we would think.

Let the message go out: In the restaurants, coffee shops and Dunkin Donuts that these cops hang out in across this nation... no food shall be SAFE! Let us give them all something to think about. The cop who ate the pubic hair sandwich is probably wondering to himself..."What else did this guy do to my food the past several times that I've eaten here?" I find it very amusing and can easily relate to the cook wanting to get back at the officer who may have not giving him a fair shake in their past encounters. On the other hand, I wouldn't want to eat any food that had been tampered with and can see why this man was arrested, a message needed to be sent to the other patrons of the restaurant that those actions by the cook will not be tolerated. Nobody wants the restaurant to go out of business. 

 As for the cook who was arrested, I would suggest finding some new methods to exact your revenge in a way that does get you thrown in jail. And as for the police out there who think that people admire them the work that they do...I would think again and continue to check the food that you ordered for spit, urine, pubic hair, lung-cookies, boogers, ear wax and every other bodily fluid that you could possibly think of. Happy eating officers!

 I thought this kind of thing only happened in the movies. Recently, a man named Roy Messenger (50), who resides in Grey Harbor County in the State of Washington was accidentally killed by urinating on a downed power line that was live at the time. The police report states the Mr. Messenger got into an accident and hit a telephone pole causing the power lines to fall to the ground around his car. After the crash, Roy was able to call his family to tell them what just happened and that he suffered only minor injuries. He also wanted to see if they could come help him get his car out of the ditch. When Roy's family arrived to the scene to proved some assistance, they found Roy dead laying in the ditch. Apparently, after he called his family, Roy needed to relieve himself and went towards the ditch where the live power lines were laying on the ground and proceeded to urinate on them... ZAP!! The Sheriff on the scene stated that it was obvious what had happened and the path the electricity took was apparent through the burn marks on the man's body.

 This is definitely was of those strange, tragic accidents/story that you would only see in a movie or some crazy "Ren and Stimpy" cartoon. What are the chances that the power line you hit and knocked over, is going to cause your death just by pissing on it? That is what I would call having some very, very bad luck! Having a hundred-thousand volts traveling trough your private parts would not be a good way to go, I just pray to the Lord that his death was as quick and painless as possible. I also feel for the guy's family, they have my sympathies and condolences. I'm sure they never expected to arrive to a scene like that, I couldn't even imagine how horrifying that would be.

 I think there are some serious lessens to be learned here. First, if you get into any type of accident involving a telephone pole and live power lines, it's usually important to keep track of where those lines have landed and to stay clear of them. Second, no mater what... and I mean under any circumstances, are you to urinate on any live wires that have fallen in your vicinity. This is very important, because not paying attention to these simple rules may cause you to get the SKOCK of your life!

 Recently, a man living in the city of Omsk, Russia got into an argument with his ex-wife and decided to end it all by jumping out of the ninth floor of his apartment. Everything seemed to be going according to plan expect towards the end of his jump when he landed on a 7 year old girl. The girl suffered serious injuries due to the accident and her recovery in the hospital lasted several months. As for the man who jumped from the window, of course his injuries were only minor. The girl who was injured has my sympathies, if your walking down the street minding your own business, the last thing you would expect is to have a grown man landing on the top of your HEAD! The girl was lucky that she wasn't killed instantly. The court recently awarded the girl's parents 100k rubles ($3,300) to pay for her medical bills and damages, I know it doesn't seem like a lot but it's something. 

 As for the guy who jumped from his window... I'm really not sure if he was lucky or unlucky? To jump out of a nine-story building and survive seems pretty lucky to me though. Not many people who try to kill themselves get a second chance at life. Only he knows if he regretted his decision to jump as he was falling to his death, but if he did and was hoping to survive, then he owes the little girl more than just paying her medical bills. First, he would owe her an APOLOGY for being an idiot and causing her harm. Second, he would owe her a great, big THANK YOU for breaking his fall and giving him that precious second chance.

 On the other hand, this guy maybe one of the most unluckiest man alive. Imagine that you have had enough with life and are willing to just end it all. Then you summon the courage (really stupidity) to actually jump... then you land on someone and survive? WTF? Then to top it all off, you get sued by the person you landed on for the medical bills you caused in your failed attempt to kill yourself. I would start thinking that I just can't catch a break and that God really must not like me. So it's a hard call whether to decide how lucky or unlucky the was. In the future, if the man feels the need to try this again, I would suggest jumping at a less busy time of the day or another method to avoid this from happening again.

 Recently a woman (32) living in Memphis, Tennessee was arrested and charged with aggravated assault and having a weapon on school property. The woman arrived at the teacher-parent meeting that night, but before she went in to the meeting, the woman continued to sit in her car and guzzle down a 40 oz. bottle of malt liquor. After her beverage was finished, the woman then grabbed a sword from her car (police reports state the the sword/blade was concealed inside a walking cane) and proceeded to head into the school... ready for action. When the woman arrived in the school, she proceeded to pull the sword from it's sheath and run down the hallways screaming at the top of her lungs that she was ready to cut someone. In actuality, she was calling another parent out for their kid spitting on the CRAZY woman's kid the previous day at school. Fortunately, this woman was subdued before anyone was seriously hurt in this bizarre incident.

 It seems obvious that this woman has some serious mental issues. Bringing a sword into a school, threatening people's lives in front of the school's students is a crime that should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. This woman deserves no slack! Our kids are in a vulnerable spot as it is, they go to school with the very minimum in security protection. We've had to worry about other students bringing weapons to school or making threats about killing students in mass numbers... now we have to worry about the parents? Whether this woman is insane or just plain stupid, she needs to be removed from society before she snaps again. People deserve second chances but when it comes to actions like hers, people should not be given a repeated chance to harm others... especially around KIDS!

 The original problem that caused this mess could have been easily resolved through communication instead of violence or revenge. Would I want someone spitting on my kid at school..No! I would find other avenues through the school to get the issues solved, I sure wouldn't bring a sword to my child's school threatening the other kid's parents. Bad parents raise bad kids... it's that simple. She may claim or think to herself that she was just defending her child from a bully but in reality, she only proved on how unstable she is. She also proved what an embarrassment she could be to her child and maybe she could better explain her actions to her family when they come to visit her in prison.

 My plan was to take my wife and kids to their first NBA basketball game in a couple of weeks to see the Bucks play the Pacers at home in Milwaukee. Granted, its not the best match-up if you're a basketball fan since both teams are struggling this year but I wanted my family to enjoy the game itself and the great experience the NBA has to offer. Unfortunately, my smiles turned to frowns when I went online to check the prices and availability of the tickets. I wasn't looking to sit courtside, in fact, I was planning on getting seats for all of us in the upper deck (nose bleed seats). Now after finding out how much this is going to cost, the plan for "NBA Family Day" may have to be postponed until further notice.

 It's not just the price of the tickets that are causing some heartburn, I also need to take into consideration: The price of parking, that's around twenty dollars at least. The price of food and drinks for the whole family are also going to cost some cash, you figure that one hot dog, bag of chips and soda would run about $10 for each person. I have teenagers going to the game with me and one hot dog may not do the trick, more food would probably be needed. Then comes the souvenirs! Everyone likes to get something from the game concerning their team and on my budget, no one would be getting a thing. I just wouldn't be able to afford to get them any sports memorabilia to remind them of their joyous day at a NBA game... very sad!

 With the economy as bad as it is, you would think the prices of tickets to these major sporting events would be lowered to keep attendance up and the seats filled. The salaries of the players have dropped considerably due to the economy but it seems the owners of the teams are just pocketing the savings for themselves without passing down the discounts/savings to the fans. If something isn't done, families like mine will be priced-out from going to these events and will be forced to find other methods of affordable entertainment. So, the owners better wake up and wake up FAST! Soon the only money my family will be spending is buying hotels and houses on Park Place and Boardwalk while playing Monopoly.

 I'm an American who knows a little history and is bound by no political party or any sort of political correctness. What I have to say is based on my own personal opinion but I can almost guarantee that many of my fellow Americans believe the same way as I do. What bothers the CRAP out of me is the fact that China and it's leaders try to give the impression that they're a force to be reckoned with on the world stage but what is that really based on? China's credibility as a legitimate country that can be counted on during a world crisis is unfounded. Everytime there is a world disaster, does the world look to China for support and leadership? Hell NO! What was their role during the last world crisis, were they really a key-player in the response to the earthquake in Haiti? I think we would all agree that the answer is also a resounding... NO! I believe that China finds our charity to be a weakness and sits back and laughs while we spend our time and resources helping other people in need. Well, that's why we are AMERICANS... WE CARE! Further more, they also have no business being on the United Nation's Security Council and have proven countless times in the past, that the council's only purpose to them, is to provide China with a forum to exert their power over other nations. They're only accomplishments have been blocking Democracy from spreading around the world.

 China needs to be reminded that they are working for us (America). If wasn't for their cheap labor they would be irrelevant to the United States and all the world stage. Everything they make over in China can be made back here in the States, sure Americans get paid more but at least we know how to make a quality product, unlike the SHIT they produce and ship back over here to stock all the Wal-Mart shelves. China would never be anything more than they are now. If there are any innovators in the country itself, they either leave and come here to the States to be free or are thrown in a Chinese prison doing hard labor. China is on a constant attack when it comes to taking ideas from the West, then makes cheap imitations of those ideas and products and the sells them back us. How long do they think this is going to last? Americans are fed-up with trade deficits and closed Chinese markets... just ask "Google." In all fairness, I do get a smile on my face knowing that China is literally destroying it's country and people by turning it's nation into one big, giant FACTORY just to supply us (America and Western Nations) with cheaply made products... lol.

 As for China's threats... well, they can shove them up their ASS! If they want to stop buying American debt, then go ahead... but what other currency would they invest in? They know that this country may go through some tough times, that happens when we not only have to take care of ourselves but everyone else in the world in a time of need. They also know that country doesn't like to be FUCKED with and doesn't FAIL! And everytime they feel like they want to push us around because they own our debt, they are more than welcome to try to come here and get it.. at least my share as a U.S. citizen. As for the people of China itself... WAKE UP! It seems they want their MTV but also want to be told by a higher authority what video is going to be on and when they could watch. Do Chinese really think they're that smart? They better pull their heads out of their ass because they are never going to be better than us and I can guarantee they're not taking over the world or our way of life!

 An Italian Man, who resides in the city of Rome, was playing a soccer video game (Playstation) with his teenage son when things started getting out of control. The two got into a heated argument over the tactics that were being used during the game. Based on police reports, the father stated he was giving his son some advice on how to improve his game-play and when he was finished, proceeded to turn off the television set. Well, apparently his son took his father's advice as some sort of criticism or felt his dad was rubbing it in that he had lost and felt something must be done. The son walked into the kitchen, grabbed a 15 inch kitchen knife, walked back into the living room and stabbed his father in the neck. After the attack on his father, the son went back into the kitchen, cleaned the knife off in the sink, went upstairs and locked himself in his room. The mother, who was standing int he kitchen this whole time, knew nothing of what was going on until her husband stumbled in from the living room grasping his bloody throat. She then called police and her son was arrested without incident. 

 I would like to start off by saying this kid may have some serious mental problems. To go grab a knife and stab your own father in the neck over a video game shows how unstable the kid's mentality is. Just imagine what this teenager would be capable of doing to people who aren't members of his own family. He needs professional help and to be kept off the streets until it's proven he can be a peaceful member of society. I would also be curious to know how the kid was raised and how his home life was. The mother stated to police that she bought her son a soccer game because she wanted him to stay away from the more violent games out there, that didn't seem to work too well in this case. Whether the teenager was getting "put-down" by his father for losing or they were getting into the "soccer spirit" like you see the crowds in the stadiums do during the games, it's still no excuse for pulling out a knife on your old man!

 I can't help myself from seeing certain parallels to this teenager compared to one of Hollywood's most notorious killers... Michael Myers from the Halloween movies. First, you need a psycho kid who is willing to kill for no apparent reason.... check! Second, you need a huge butcher knife that will scare the shit out of you the minute you see it... check! Third, you need the kid to have a certain EVILNESS, the kind that allows you not to care what the consequences are, the kind that allows you to remain calm during and after the attack... check! The only thing missing that would make the story complete is the over-the-top doctor/psychologist that would be treating this kid. Who then tries to warn the town of his pending return after he escapes from the mental hospital 10 years from now. I can only hope and pray that this potential killer doesn't have a sister to hunt down in the future!

 A man living in London, England placed a "Christmas" bet with a nationwide professional bookmaker by the name of Ladbrokes (gambling is legal in U.K.). The man bet that 24 towns across Northern England would be having a white Christmas. Since I lived in Las Vegas for a few years in the past, I can see what the man was trying to do. The odds were stacked against him on this bet and I'm sure he wasn't very confident that he would win but betting a small amount of money to win BIG money is no different than buying a lottery ticket. Well, luckily for him the bet "hit" and the man won over $11 million dollars, but of course when that much money is involved things have a certain way of becoming complicated. The bookmaker Ladbrokes informed the man that they were NOT honoring the bet due to the fact the bet was accepted by mistake. This was not their policy and here's what a Ladbrokes spokesman had to say, "We have apologized to the customer for any confusion and for mistakenly accepting an accumulator bet when our own rules state that only single bets are available on a market of this nature." Ladbrokes also stated that they were more than willing to pay the man the single bets he won, unfortunately those winnings would only total hundreds of dollars instead of millions. The man stated he was going to seek legal action while Ladbrokes is offering a mediator to try to solve this dispute.

 First, I totally agree with this man hiring a lawyer! This is down-right CRIMINAL! The man has a valid "ticket' stating what he bet on and how much he would win, and when he received that ticket, the transaction/bet is validated. Also, don't give me any CRAP on how the bookmaker has the right to refuse any winnings based on an error or mistake. this is about credibility and if they want to stay in business much longer they need to immediately resolve this problem. This is a total outrage and I feel bad for the man thinking he won a SHIT-LOAD of money only to find out that he has not. Very sad!

 Second, this is why this country (America) should utilize the most credible bookmaking organization on the planet... the Vegas casinos! Legalize on-line gambling (especially the sportsbooks) from Vegas and watch the revenue streams pour in from all over the world. Keep track of records so all taxes can be paid, I'm thinking have a credit card or debit card from the casino of your choice that have set limits ($500-$1000) and that taxes are taken out of all winnings automatically. I'm sure Las Vegas would love nothing more than to be the on-line gambling MECCA of the world! Furthermore, I'm sure "Uncle Sam" would like the new tax revenue!

 Recently a woman from Kansas City, Missouri became OVERLY upset when she didn't like the hamburger she ordered from a local McDonald's restaurant. The woman was told that she could have her order replaced and made how she preferred but the woman said "NO" and that would not be good enough. She then asked the employee if she could get her money refunded back to her but based on store policy the woman's request was denied. This reply set the woman off! There was no stopping her now! The woman proceeded to throw a sign and bucket of water over the counter at the employees. She then pushed a glass display case and all the cash registers off the front counter. After there was nothing left to destroy within her immediate area, she cursed out all of the employees and fled the restaurant. Afterwards the damages were said to be in the thousands of dollars.

 What was this woman thinking? It's just a hamburger, there's no need to go off like that! Sure, sometimes when you go to a fast-food resturant, there's a chance that they may get your order wrong. That happens all the time, they serve thousands of people per day, there are going to be some mistakes made. Most of the time, except in extreme cases, they don't return your money, they just offer to make your food the way you would like, usually getting your money back is not an option. I find nothing wrong with this policy, you came there to eat THEIR food and have every right to get it the way you want it, but without making a scene to belittle the employee who's only job is to serve the food you have grown to LOVE!

 Well, the police are looking for this woman so she could answer for the crimes she committed in her fit of rage. Without a doubt, they should throw the book at her. I would like to see her banned from McDonald's for LIFE, 500 hours of community service, 5K fine and pay the resturant for all the damages she caused. I could imagine working at McDonald's is not an easy job, especially when you have to deal with customers her think they own the world, but they are trying to get through the day just like everyone else. I know that I personally get upset when they screw up my order but I would never go to the extremes of this woman, it's just not worth it.

 A Sicilian man living in Rome, Italy went to great lengths to avoid spending time with his wife and relatives on New Year's Eve. He went to the local police department stating he would rather spend the night in prison than spend it with his family at home. The police officers looked at him a little odd and stated they could not accommodate his request due to the fact that he has committed no crime. The man left the police department and proceeded to go directly next store to a local tobacco shop and then threatened the owner with a box cutter. He proceeded to steal a pack of gum and some candy, then he patiently waited for police to arrive to be arrested.

 I can understand maybe wanting to get away for a while just because your family members are driving you CRAZY but this guy was taking things to extremes. How bad can your wife/family members be, if you're willing to spend the night or weekend in jail? Obviously the guy has some serious mental issues and should possibly consider relocating himself out of the household on a more permanent basis. Also, I'm sure the man's wife and family are feeling pretty good (not) about knowing he would rather be jail then spend a joyful holiday with them. Why not just go to a hotel room, go to the local tavern and get plastered or spend the night over at a friend's house? I would personally prefer any of those options over a night in prison and I think most people would agree.

 Well, with Valentine's Day coming up in a couple of months, I would expect this guy to be repaying a visit to the local authorities for a place for the night. At the very least, I commend him for leaving the household before a domestic disturbance breaks out. But I would advise the man next time that he steals some gum just to purposely get arrested not to use a weapon or threaten anyone with bodily harm, because he maybe facing a couple of years in prison instead of a couple of days.
