I feel kiiiiiinda bad for the teacher.

It was really dumb to even open that line of betting, but NO ONE in their right mind would assume that the kid would ACTUALLY jump out of the window.

This sounds like a joke that went way too far.

My guess is that he will...now whether it is $20 or $20 million dollars is the question.:confused:

What teacher in their RIGHT MIND would have a listed phone number? Seriously now, you're just ASKING to be prank called. Hell one of my professors got death threats this semester, and his email was out of order with virii. (and no not because he assigned us topics on ET aliens :p )

That's why as a teacher you have to be REALLY careful what you say to those little crazy people.

I'm sure it was a joking situation and he didn't really believe that he was going to do it.

Like ivy said...Who in their right mind would think a kid would jump out a second story window, joking situation or not? I certainly wouldn't...And with my sense of humor, I (:eek:) wouldn't put it past myself to have said just exactly what that teacher said. LAWD don't NEVVVVA let me be a teacher!

Why do we have judges like this?
 

Sorry, this isht is just straight up nasty.

Judge Rules Oral Sex Can Be Defense In Conn. Manslaughter Case

MIDDLETOWN, Conn. -- A Vernon woman charged with causing a fatal 1999 car crash is arguing that she couldn't have been driving because she was performing a sex act :eek: on the driver at the time.

A Superior Court judge ruled Tuesday that Heather Specyalski can proceed with the defense, despite objections by the prosecutor.

"A defendant has a right to offer a defense no matter how outlandish, silly or unbelievable one might think it will be," Judge Robert L. Holzberg said.


Specyalski, 33, faces second-degree manslaughter charges in the accident that killed businessman Neil Esposito. Specyalski's attorney, Jeremiah Donovan, said Specyalski was performing oral sex on Esposito at the time. He contends Esposito was the driver.

As evidence, he points to the fact that Esposito's pants were down when he was thrown from the car and killed.

"No one ever told me in law school that we'd be having these kinds of conversations in open court," Holzberg said.

Specyalski and Esposito were on their way home from a party and tests showed they had been drinking before Esposito's Mercedes-Benz convertible went off the highway and hit several trees.

"No one saw it," Assistant State's Attorney Maureen Platt said. "His pants could have been down because he was mooning a car he was drag racing. His pants could have been down because he was urinating out of a window. His pants could have been down because he wasn't feeling well."

Tuesday's courtroom argument came between sessions of jury selection, which are scheduled to resume Wednesday.

Holzberg denied Donovan's motion to use gender as grounds to eliminate jurors. Donovan argued that women would be biased and more likely to convict.

Lawd, why are old people acting crazy?
 

Seniors Brawl After Salad Bar Dispute


WINTER HAVEN, Fla. (AP) - A dispute at the salad bar turned into a food fracas at an upscale retirement home, with a man taking a bite out of another's arm and other residents suffering minor injuries.

Police said resident Lee Thoss, 62, of the Spring Haven Retirement Community was picking through the lettuce, which disgusted 86-year-old William Hocker, who was standing in line behind him.


Hocker told Thoss no one wanted to eat food he had been playing with. Thoss yelled and cursed at him, Hocker told police, and Hocker called him a nasty name. Then, witnesses said, Thoss then began punching Hocker in the face.

In the buffet melee that followed, Allen Croft, 79, tried to grab Thoss, who bit him on the arm, reports said.


Thoss' mother, Arlene, in her 80s and also a Spring Haven resident, jumped in to break up the fight and ended up with a cut arm. Harry Griffin, 92, was standing at the salad bar and cut his head when he was knocked to the ground.


``All the old folks were either getting up to help or trying to get out of there,'' police spokesman J.J. Stanton said of the scene last Sunday in the well-appointed dining room, which features an ice cream bar and a pastry chef.


Arlene Thoss, Croft and Griffin were treated at a local hospital and released.


Stanton said all involved declined to press charges, but home administrators have asked Lee Thoss to move out.

Woman Served Salad with Human Thumb Garnish
49 minutes ago Add Oddly Enough - Reuters to My Yahoo!



CHICAGO (Reuters) - An Ohio woman was served a salad containing part of a restaurant worker's thumb sliced off while chopping lettuce, a health official said on Friday.



The woman "thought it was gristle or something like that" when she tried to chew the unexpected garnish, said William Franks, health commissioner for Stark County, where the incident occurred earlier this week. ****GROOOOOOOSSSS****


"Physically I think she's OK, other than hysteria," Franks added.


Stark County officials did not release the woman's name.


The restaurant worker accidentally sliced off the tip of his thumb while chopping the ingredients on Monday night at the Red Robin restaurant near Canton, Ohio, he said.


Despite a search, it could not be found.


"The salad should have been discarded," Franks said.


Instead, the workers sanitized the counter area and then refrigerated the ingredients before rushing off to get medical help for the man.


The salad fixings were then served to a lunch crowd on Tuesday, when the piece of thumb was discovered by the patron. The restaurant is part of Red Robin Gourmet Burgers Inc. .






~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Not a good salad day. . .guess it is easier just to eat french fries after all :p

There was footage. They ran it on the news last night. I felt bad for laughing, but it was pretty funny.

Handyman Nailed with His Own Nail Gun
Mon Mar 8, 8:52 AM ET Add Oddly Enough - Reuters to My Yahoo!

SYDNEY (Reuters) - An Australian handyman admitted he was stupid to shoot himself in the head with a nail gun in a misguided prank that left him with a nail lodged in his brain.


Brad Shorten, a father of three from Victoria state, was enjoying a few beers with friends after working on his house when they began joking about industrial accidents.


Shorten, 33, picked up a nail gun that he thought was empty, pointed it at his head and pulled the trigger.


He later said he had turned off the gun's compressor and taken out its nail cartridge but did not realize there was still enough pressure in the gun to fire a nail.


"My mates and I were talking about construction site accidents and taking your eye out with a nail gun, and I foolishly put the gun to my head and pulled the trigger," Shorten told the Sunday Herald Sun newspaper.


"I did a very stupid thing," he said.


The bizarre mishap left him with a 1.25-inch nail counter-sunk through his skull just behind his temple.


Royal Melbourne Hospital neurosurgeons removed the nail in a delicate four-hour operation even though Shorten, who was expected to make a full recovery, had offered to take the nail out with a pair of pliers. :eek: :eek:

Oklahoma woman shoots husband
 

Domestic Violence TV Show Leads to Okla. Shooting

1 hour, 30 minutes ago Add Entertainment - Reuters TV to My Yahoo!

OKLAHOMA CITY (Reuters) - An Oklahoma woman shot her husband to death during a fight after the couple watched a daytime TV talk show on how to survive domestic violence, officials said on Monday.

Teri Lynn Carver, 35 is not facing charges for gunning down her husband Cecil, 38, at their home in the northeastern Oklahoma town of Rose because evidence at the scene suggested the death was an accident, District Attorney Gene Haynes said.

Police and prosecutors said the couple was in bed on Feb. 24 smoking marijuana and watching a Montel Williams (news) TV talk show on surviving a lover's attack. Teri told her husband that his actions resembled those of abusive husbands featured on the show, which caused Cecil to turn violent.

Cecil then struck his wife, fetched a handgun and fired a shot into the bed's headboard near Teri to show that he did not like his wife calling him a violent partner, police said, citing a statement the wife gave to investigators.

Teri then called for help and when her husband tried to wrestle the phone away from her, she reached for the gun. Teri shot her husband in the arm and the bullet entered his chest, killing him, police said.

Evidence at the scene and reports from neighbors seem to support Teri's statement, police said.

"The TV show gave them a reason to fight, but in a situation of domestic violence, they really don't need an excuse," said Lt. Pat Knowles, a police detective for Mayes County.

95-Year-Old Man Drives Through Store Wall
Monday March 08, 2004 2:40pm

Washington (AP) - A 95 year old man is hospitalized after authorities say he drove his car into a supermarket wall.

It happened shortly before two this afternoon at Minnesota Avenue and Dix Street, Northeast. D.C. Fire and EMS says the man apparently lost control and wound up with his Lincoln plowing through a wall and into a Safeway store.

Firefighters had to cut open the back window of the car to free the trapped man, who was taken to Howard University Hospital. Amazingly, no one else was hurt.
