Future Gansta?
|
When you think of being in the first grade, you think of sweet, innocent little tots learning to read, spell and count, coloring adorable pictures, making cute remarks and skipping around during recess.
I guess things have changed, however, if what happened recently in a Pembroke Pines, Florida elementary school is any indication.
Allegedly, a 7-year-year did a shakedown of a fellow first-grader by robbing him in the school restroom, as he held a knife to the poor tyke's nose.
Young Gangsta
His take? One buck.
It seems that the little thug-in-training got the weapon he used in his mini-robbery from home. One can only speculate what other kind of things he must have been learning at home.
The tiny victim of the crime told his mom what happened and she reported it school authorities. They suspended the wee perpetrator for 10 days and the likelihood is that he will be put in an "alternative" school.
Oh, great. Now, he can be negatively influenced by older kids who are even worse than he is! This kid needs serious help!
It hasn't been decided whether or not he will be charged with a criminal offense.
Man what is in that water in Florida? |

Teen Kills Self Before Online Spectators
|
Internet chat rooms can be a place to meet new people who share common interests and who want a place to freely express their opinions. They can also open the door to things that are not so good.
A sad example of this is a 19-year-old teen who committed suicide, while others watched, as he did the act on webcam. He had posted his plans on the chat room forum earlier and other members responded by making fun of him and deriding him with cruel comments, even encouraging him to go through with it.
Allegedly, they thought he wasn't serious and that it was some type of joke.
Even when the 1,500 spectators saw him taking the pills that eventually caused his death, many continued to post nasty remarks and to sit back and watch the event taking place, without contacting anybody for help. They reportedly watched for hours until they finally concluded that it was, in fact, not a hoax, which is when they finally contacted somebody who informed the cops in his area.
They got there too late, though, and found the 19-year-old expired.
Believe it or not, some viewers continued to crack jokes, expressing absolutely no remorse.

One Size Doesn't Fit All
|
If you're an inmate serving time in the "big house" in Montreal, you may be able to find a clever way to get out and you don't even have to plan a prison break to do it.
How?
Just eat...and eat and eat and eat, until you become so grossly corpulent, so belly-busting huge, so amazingly gargantuan that you become too fat to fit into your prison cell.
That is what happened in the case of one "lucky" 37-year-old big guy, originally sentenced to a 5-year prison term for an act of lawlessness.
Seems that "Big Mike", as he was popularly known, was probably not spending his free time lifting weights in his facility's gym or attempting self-improvement, but scarfing down the chow and expanding his already large body mass.
Mikey's size became such a problem that he was unable to fit in his prison cell's chair or fit into his tiny bed properly. There simply was not enough room for him.
The solution?
When other prisons were also unable to accommodate the bug guy, the authorities decided to let the guy go free.
Wonder if this will make prisoners start putting down the barbells and gulping down the carbs?

What Was She Thinking?
|
Most of us are familiar with the email scam that involves a message being sent from somebody claiming to be a government official or member of the royal family from a third world country or a long-lost relative of the email recipient, etc.. The "Nigerian" scam is one of the oldest cons in the book, but, believe it or not, there are actually people who still get sucked into it.
The person sending the email supposedly says, due to security threats, he needs a way to safely transfer a few million dollars worth of funds to a bank account outside his country, so he implores you to "help" by sending a big fee and your checking account information and you will get 10-30% of these millions wired to your account.
When a registered nurse from Oregon received one of these emails, she fell for it hook line and sinker, told to wire $8,200 and she would be wired millions
After the so-called "transfer" of millions was delayed, she sent more money after promises that there would be a larger reward. This went on for two years before she realized she was being scammed.
How much money did she lose?
Try $400,000! |

Hero's Dark Side
|
Firefighters are heroic figures. They put their lives on the line to help put out fires and rescue people. They show courage in the face of tremendously dangerous situations. These are people we revere, because of what they do.
Unfortunately, there are always a few individuals who come along to tarnish the image of their profession.
Such was the recent case of a 19-year-veteran of the Prince George's Fire Department in the D.C,/Maryland area.
So, what exactly did he do?
The 42-year-old firefighter allegedly set fire to an area behind an Asian restaurant in the wee hours, just before going to work one early November morning. He apparently did not count on the fact that there were security cameras around, which recorded him burning paper near the rear exit of the establishment.
Believe it or not, the firefighting arsonist returned to the scene of his crime, except he came next time around in his job capacity, to help put out the fire he had started.
Once the surveillance tapes disclosed the truth, he was arrested and jailed. His colleagues are still trying to figure out his motives for trying to torch the Asian takeout place,
Hm, maybe he got a bad eggroll. |

Uh...What's That On the Counter, Ma?
|
Most of us think of blissfully sunny weather, romantic white beaches and spirals of youthful fun at Disney World, whenever the state of Florida is mentioned.
However, I doubt anybody ever thinks...Madagascar hissing cockroach when you bring up the "Sunshine State."
Apparently, these creepy crawlers are being purchased in large number by some lizard owners, who buy them off internet sites and feed them to their reptilian pals, supposedly because doing so is "cost-effective."
The problem is that the Madagascar hissing cockroach can get as large as 5 inches. Should they escape, the likelihood is that the warm Florida climate will provide a good environment for them to grow and multiply in, meaning that they could find their way into the homes of several of the state's residents.
Just the thought of dozens of these fat, disgusting, 5 inch long cockroaches creeping into people's beds or running inside the open box of potato chips they left on the kitchen counter is cringe-worthy.
Although, buying these nasty bugs over the internet is illegal, it may be too late to stop the damage.
So, if you live in Florida you have two choices:
Move or buy a really big can of Raid. |

Four-Footed Driver Gets Behind the Wheel
|
Most of us never heard of the town Pryor, Oklahoma and it's not usually the kind of place that lends itself to any notice by the remainder of the world.
However, a pretty freaky incident occurred there, recently, that put this tiny burg on the map for at least 15 minutes of fame.
A town resident decided it was time to take his vehicle to a do-it-yourself car wash to get it nice and clean. He also chose to bring his beloved pet pit bull along for the occasion, leaving the 70-pound doggie inside the car, as he got his auto nice and spiffy lookin.'
The problem is that the canine was getting pretty bored, being left in that car all by himself and he decided to jump right to the front seat of the vehicle. When the critter did this, he inadvertently put it into reverse.
It looked, for awhile, as if the dog-driven automobile would go out for a dangerous impromptu highway excursion, but, instead, it stopped in an automated lane at the same car wash.
Miraculously, there was no real harm done, but the car got impounded, since its owner had no insurance.
What a dawg-gone shame!.

Stupid Cheerleader Moments
|
Caitlin Davis clearly fit the typical bouncy, wholesome, all-American image of a NFL cheerleader. The 18-year old was the youngest person to be chosen as a New England Patriots' cheerleader squad in its history and had a background that included being a part of a youth group at her church. All looked bright for her future.
Then, of course, reality hit, as the darker side of her personality was disclosed, via the online community site Facebook. Somebody posted an old photo of the sweet-faced cheerleader as she stood over a guy who was evidently passed out and she and another warped individual gleefully wrote words referring to his male "equipment" over various areas of his body.
Maybe that might have been forgiven by the owners of the Patriots and seen as a youthful prank done by a less mature young woman. What sealed her fate, however, was the fact that she also allegedly drew two swastikas on the sleeping man and had written the words, "I am a Jew" on him, as well.
Not surprisingly, the perky, bigoted cheerleader was forced to put her pom-poms down for good, as she was let go by the top brass of the Patriots.

"I Confess."
|
"Let us pray."
Usually when a member of the clergy says this, it's to guide someone towards a higher spiritual direction. For one Queens, New York priest, however, it seems to have been the ultimate pickup line.
Parishioners admired the respected priest, who ministered at an area Catholic church. They trusted him enough to go to him for confession. For one vulnerable female church member who was facing an impending divorce, however, the said priest appears to have used the confessional booth to lead her astray, by flirting with her.
In other words, he used his spiritual connections for sinful purposes. Guess his reason for joining the clergy seems to have been to scope out all the hot chicks.
The mesmerized woman and the priest started dating on the sly and then got...well..."real familiar" with each other.
The secret trysts came to an abrupt close when the infatuated lady got an email from her priestly boyfriend, informing her that he had inadvertently passed on a STD to her.
Yep, that would definitely put the damper on a romantic relationship.
The diocese doesn't have too many comments on the matter right now, but she has filed a $25 million lawsuit. |

What a Couple of Despicable Creeps!
|
You have to have been stuck in a cave not to have heard all the news about Florida "Mom-from ' Hades"- Casey Anthony, who waited a whole month before telling cops her daughter Caylee was missing and reportedly partied with friends in a club, while she was supposedly "searching" for the adorable 4-year-old.
After basically playing cat-and-mouse with the authorities, she has finally been arrested for what the police believe is the murder of the missing tot.
I mean, even an idiot could connect the dots here.
Just when you thought things couldn't get any freakier with this story, recent unsubstantiated reports have surfaced that convicted murderer Scott Peterson has been writing to Casey Anthony from California's "Death Row." Peterson was convicted of murdering his wife Laci and their unborn child in 2005.
So, what would these two repulsive human beings have to discuss? Maybe they could talk about the best places to party after committing a heinous crime. Or perhaps they could set a date to meet for drinks in the hereafter, since Anthony is likely to get the death penalty, too, if convicted of killing her daughter.
Allegedly, Anthony has not been writing back.
Guess he's not her type.

Robber Leaves Something Behind
|
Very seldom, if ever, do individuals who commit armed robberies leave anything behind, except for the frightened people whose stuff they just took.
Recently, however, one 22-year-old criminal left something of great importance behind, but it was not exactly intentional on his part.
The criminal, along with an accomplice, decided it was a good time to go to the Columbia Heights area of Washington, D.C. and hold up a place alleged to be a brothel. The two made off with lots of big bucks from some supposed "working girls" and probably expected to make a nice, clean getaway.
However, one ticked-off victim decided to fight back and grabbed the 22--year-old's machete, managing to cut off the unlucky thief's right thumb.
Ouch! Now, that's gotta hurt, man!
Despite the efforts of the tough-as-nails victim, the nine-fingered crook and his partner made off with their sizable loot and the wounded man went straightway to a hospital emergency room to get his...er...condition treated..
Police were alerted by the hospital about their new patient and the severed digit was matched to its owner, who was arrested by the cops for his lawless actions.
Now the robber and his thumb are together again...in the "Big House."

Liquored-Up Pilot Arrested
|
It's not enough that you have to suffer canceled flights, charges for extra luggage and nasty attitudes from rude personnel. Now, when you fly the "not-so-friendly" skies, you have an additional thing to worry about...SOUSED PILOTS!
An arrest was made recently at London's Heathrow Airport, as authorities took a United Airlines pilot off the plane, just as he was about to fly over 5,000 miles to San Francisco, California.
The problem is that the guy had downed some "happy juice" prior to going to work. Fortunately, a member of the ground staff, who had an inkling that the pilot was on the tipsy side, alerted the proper folks, who responded before the flight took off.
The inebriated gent, already seated in the cockpit, was quickly taken off and arrested. My guess is that he will not only be facing legal issues, but will probably be out looking for a new job, as well.
You just have to wonder about the I.Q. of somebody who goes out and ties one on, knowing he is going to be flying a plane with fellow human beings whose very lives are in his hands.
Hope they throw the bottle...er...I mean, book at this idiot! |

Papa Ain't Right
|
I don't think some folks would have a clue about parenting, even if a handbook came attached to their kid upon birth.
A prime example of this is a recent news story involving a 27-year-old "father" from Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. He decided to take his infant child along for the ride when he drove to a gentleman's club. According to what he later said to authorities, he just came to the place to pick up a cell 'phone from his wife, who was one of the dancers at the establishment.
Seems, though, that "Daddy" decided to stay longer, since his wife was otherwise occupied. He sat down at a table, popped a few cigarettes and got his groove on by getting a lap dance from an attractive female employee, as he enjoyed some hedonistic fun.
The only problem was that he left his sleeping infant in the back of his car outside.
Even worse, he left the door unlocked.
Thankfully, a concerned patron saw the snoozing baby and called the cops, who arrested him for "unlawful conduct towards a child" for his shameful negligence.
In terms of sheer, mind-boggling stupidity, this guy is the embodiment of a complete idiot.

All In the Family
|
So, looking for the right feller or gal to be your soulmate? Forget online dating websites, blind dates or chance meetings. You can find the love of your life in your own family.
That's what one Alabama couple did. Siblings Bo and Anna decided that the best person to spend the rest of their very strange existences with was...each other.
(Well, okay, she was his adopted sister, but, still, weren't there any other eligible people in the trailer park to choose from?)
Their nuptials were aired on CMT's reality show, "My Big Redneck Wedding, Season 2."
Every dreadful stereotype of Southerners you've ever had was reinforced by this episode. Neither the lovebirds nor their assortment of toothless, blue-jesn outfitted friends and family members seemed the least bit appalled by their decision.
The couple than commenced with their unique wedding plans, which included holding the ceremony in their trailer park, where the bride marched to her groom, who wore a rebel flag vest. Afterwards, guests ate the hog 'specially slaughtered for the occasion, got sloshed with cheap beer and the newly hitched pair drove their truck through the mud, dirtying up their fancy weddin' duds.
And you thought romance was dead! |

Finger Lickin' Fine
|
What would the late Colonel Saunders, founder of fast food chicken restaurant chain KFC, say, if he knew that one of his most loyal customers was being disrespected?
When a British nurse and a friend stopped by a local KFC recently, their intention was to enjoy scarfing down some of the juicy, tender poultry with fixings offered at the popular restaurant. Evidently pretty hungry, she ordered a gargantuan meal, consisting of fourteen pieces of chicken, six cartons of french fries and some huge soft drinks.
The long-time customer of this KFC obviously believed that she had plenty of time to enjoy the finger-lickin' -good, calorie-laden meal, but such was not the case.
The stunned nurse was taken aback to receive a notice in the mail, not long after informing her that she being fined £150 for overstaying her welcome at KFC.
She claims that she was unaware of their customer time-limit, which stipulates that you can only stay a maximum of 75 minutes, due to a parking restriction. The ravenous patron and her pal stayed 90 minutes.
I don't know what's worse... the fact that this woman was fined £150 or that she put away 5,456 calories at one sitting.
