clown

I make no secret of the fact that I don't like clowns.  So a clown in Green Bay would really creep me out.  Someone is walking around the streets of Green Bay, WI dressed in an old clown outfit with full makeup and carrying 4 black balloons.  

Many have called police to report sightings but there's no law again walking around dressed like a clown.  The character even has a facebook page where the administrator is posting pictures of the clown.  He's been named "Gags."  creepy

lost cat

A Florida woman adopted a kitten and on the drive home, the little fur ball decided to crawl into the dash of the car.  The woman tried everything she could think to do to get that kitten out of there including trying to coax it with food and water; but no luck.  She put a plea on facebook for help and got a lot of responses but ultimately mechanics had to use a chainsaw to destroy the dash to get the kitten out.  destroyed dash

dog crashed a car

A woman left her two dogs in her vehicle while she went shopping.  She left the car running so that they wouldn't get overheated.  Unfortunately the dogs wanted to join her and decided to drive the vehicle into the store.  There wasn't much damage but this teaches us that we should leave our pets at home while running errands.  There's even a video of the dog's joy ride.  see it here

online dating

A Dutch man met a Chinese woman online and they started a conversation.  He decided that it was time to meet so he told her that he was going to fly to China.  She took that as a joke.  He wasn't kidding though and waited at the airport for 10 days for her to show up.  She claims that she was having plastic surgery and her phone was turned off.  He had to be removed from the airport and was treated for exhaustion.  They still plan to meet.  How long should a person wait when a date doesn't show?  10 days?

divorce

A 57-year-old man was ordered to turn over his house to his soon-to-be ex-wife in their divorce settlement.  Timothy Brosnan had built the $900,000 house himself. He and his ex-wife would be sharing the mortgage payments while they dissolved their marriage.  But one day before he was to turn it over, he decided to burn it down.  He poured gasoline in the garage and throughout the house and also opened a gas valve inside.  He made sure that everyone including the cat was out of the house and then set it on fire.  Now he's going to jail but he was joking with police about burning the house while he was arrested.  That's quite the price to pay to make sure that his wife didn't get the house.  feel the burn

lava smiles

It had been reported that lava in Hawaii had reached the ocean.  Now there's a picture of a lava lake smiling.  The image shows a smiley face in the lake.  So is it smiling because it's smug or is it sending a message that says everything will be ok?  It's an interesting picture.  lava lake smile

GPS

When you pass your turn and the GPS says turn around, it's not meant as an immediate command.  But one woman decided to turn sharply when her GPS said that she had passed her destination.  She ended up putting her car almost vertical.  Hope she learned her lesson.  Don't take GPS directions literally.  stupidity is strong in this one
