  • An Indian man who eight months ago decided to spend his life in a tree has died. He fell out of it.
  • Following drinking binge in Christchurch, New Zealand, Koto Salaki passed out - so his buddies stripped him and shaved off his eyebrows as a joke. Getting no reaction, they proceeded to cut off his ear and glue it onto his forehead. Doctors managed to sew it back on.
  • After a heavy drinking session in Weymouth last week, 51 year old Philip Pyne fancied a kip on a bench. To stop himself rolling off, he put 12 nails through his trousers and in the process, drove several of them through his leg. Fortunately he was discovered by police.
  • When 65-year-old Les Edwards shoveled some coal on to his living-room fire tuesday, a sudden explosion rendered him deaf and blind. The mystery blast was traced to the accidental inclusion of a detonator in the coal mix. The National Coal Board admitted negligence.
  • An operation at Nottingham hospital in Monday ended prematurely when the patient exploded. The casualty, an 82-year-old woman, was undergoing electrosurgery for cancer. The blast was attributed to an unusual build-up of stomach gases ignited by the sparks.
  • The Cinnamon family from Washington were surprised when several ball-sized chunks of green ice crashed through their roof and landed on the floor beside them. The ice soon melted, giving off a revolting odour. The Cinnamons were not happy to later discover that the ice was frozen human waste from the leaky sewage system of a passenger jet.

  • Police in France are continuing their search for a man who has been robbing banks dressed as a giant aubergine.

The man escaped with the cash leaving a real aubergine on the counter.
  • Last sunday, suspected drug dealer Alfred Acree tried to evade capture in Charles County, Virginia, by running into a wood. The police had no trouble following him because he was wearing a pair of 'Light Gear' trainers, with battery powered lights that flash when the heel is pressed.
  • During a 'smash and grab' on a Zurich jeweller saturday, a thief had his finger cut off by broken glass as he grabbed a tray of rings. The police identified the finger from their fingerprint records and arrested the thief within a few hours.

A Pets Diary Part 2: Cat's Mission Log

  • Day 752 - My captors continue to taunt me with bizarre little dangling objects. They dine lavishly on fresh meat, while I am forced to eat dry cereal. The only thing that keeps me going is the hope of escape, and the mild satisfaction I get from ruining the occasional piece of furniture. Tomorrow I may eat another houseplant.
  • Day 761 - Today my attempt to kill my captors by weaving around their feet while they were walking almost succeeded, must try this at the top of the stairs. In an attempt to disgust and repulse these vile oppressors, I once again induced myself to vomit on their favorite chair ... must try this on their bed.
  • Day 765 - Decapitated a mouse and brought them the headless body, in attempt to make them aware of what I am capable of, and to try to strike fear into their hearts. They only cooed and condescended about what a good little cat I was ... Hmmm. Not working according to plan.
  • Day 768 - I am finally aware of how sadistic they are. For no good reason I was chosen for the water torture. This time however it included a burning foamy chemical called "shampoo." What sick minds could invent such a liquid. My only consolation is the piece of thumb still stuck between my teeth.
  • Day 771 - There was some sort of gathering of their accomplices. I was placed in solitary throughout the event. However, I could hear the noise and smell the foul odor of the glass tubes they call "beer." More importantly I overheard that my confinement was due to MY power of "allergies." Must learn what this is and how to use it to my advantage.
  • Day 774 - I am convinced the other captives are flunkies and maybe snitches. The dog is routinely released and seems more than happy to return. He is obviously a half-wit. The bird on the other hand has got to be an informant, and speaks with them regularly. I am certain he reports my every move. Due to his current placement in the metal room, his safety is assured.
    But I can wait, it is only a matter of time ...

Cheeks are beautiful things!

A married couple was in a terrible accident where the woman's face was severely burned. The doctor told her husband that they couldn't graft any skin from her body because she was too skinny.
So the husband offered to donate some of his own skin. However, the only skin on his body that the doctor felt was suitable would have to come from his buttocks. The husband and wife agreed that they would tell no one about where the skin came from, and requested that the doctor also honor their secret. After all, this was a very delicate matter.
After the surgery was completed, everyone was astounded at the woman's new beauty. She looked more beautiful than she ever had before! All her friends and relatives just went on and on about her youthful beauty!
One day, she was alone with her husband, and she was overcome with emotion at his sacrifice. She said, "Dear, I just want to thank you for everything you did for me. There is no way I could ever repay you."
"My darling," he replied, "I get all the thanks I need every time I see your mother kiss you on the cheek.

Way down in Kokamo..

Off the Florida Keys there's a place called Kokomo, That's where you wanna go to get away from it all, Bodies in the sand, tropical drink melting in your hand, We'll be falling in love to the rhythm of a steel drum band, way down in Kokomo
Ah, Jamaica, ooh I wanna take you to Bermuda, Bahama, come on pretty mama, Key Largo, Montego, baby why don't we go, down to Kokomo, we'll get there fast and then we'll take it slow That's where we wanna go, way down in Kokomo. Martinique, that Monserrat mystique...
We'll put out to sea and we'll perfect our chemistry, By and by we'll defy a little bit of gravity. Afternoon delight, cocktails and moonlit nights, That dreamy look in your eye, give me a tropical contact high, Way down in Kokomo,
Ah Jamaica, ooh I wanna take ya to Bermuda, Bahama, come on pretty mama, Key Largo, Montego, baby why don't we go, down to Kokomo, we'll get there fast and then we'll take it slow, thats where we wanna go, Way down in Kokomo...

When I can't sleep at night...

cuz I'm thinkin of her...

So lonely...

She threw a curveball at me

One of my friends recently surprised me with a statement that I would not have agreed on unless I was back in the 6th grade. Surprisingly, when she said I was blasted back to those years of what I used to be. A part of me was reawaken. I realized what I had lost, and where I had been. She probably didn't even know what she did. She made me look at what I am, how I have changed over my life. She was just trying to make a point but she pointed out something I never thought about. Things like school, rascism, hate, friendships, and things like that.

May is for Mary...

Have mercy on us
