Say What? Man with Ear Ache Gets Vasectomy
I am over here at work at my desk CTFU!!!!!
RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil (Reuters) - A Brazilian (news - web sites) man who went to a clinic to have an aching ear checked ended up having a vasectomy after mistakenly believing that the doctor had called his name. http://www.handykult.de/plaudersmilies.de/lach.gifhttp://www.handykult.de/plaudersmilies.de/lach.gif A manager at the Doctor Jose Carlos de Espirito Santo clinic in the town of Montes Claros in southeastern Minas Gerais State told Reuters on Wednesday Valdemar Lopes de Moraes, 39, entered the vasectomy room when Aldemar Aparecido Rodrigues' name was called. "He was called by the full name and yet thought it was him. But the strangest thing is that he asked no questions when the doctor started preparations in the area which had so little to do with his ear," Vanessa Guimaraes said. http://www.handykult.de/plaudersmilies.de/lach.gifhttp://www.handykult.de/plaudersmilies.de/lach.gif "He later explained that he thought it was an ear inflammation that got down to his testicles," she added. De Moraes, a farmer who has two children, did not want to reverse the operation, performed last week, and showed up for an ear exam on Wednesday at the same clinic. "A local newspaper said he is going to sue us, but he did not tell us about any claims," Guimaraes said. http://www.handykult.de/plaudersmilies.de/lach.gifhttp://www.handykult.de/plaudersmilies.de/lach.gifhttp://www.handykult.de/plaudersmilies.de/lach.gif |

Postman Convicted for Keeping 61,000 Letters
Wed Aug 27,10:25 AM ET Add Oddly Enough - Reuters to My Yahoo! BERLIN (Reuters) - A German court handed a former postman a 10-month suspended jail sentence and 200 hours community service for failing to deliver around 61,000 letters, authorities said Wednesday. Police discovered mounds of post that had accumulated over two-and-a-half-years filling the rooms and basement of the 36-year-old's house after locals complained about missing deliveries. The man resigned his job. "He said he had too many letters to deliver on his round," said Bernd Lottes, spokesman for the court in the western town of Neuss. "He was hoping to deliver the other stuff when he had a bit of breathing space." |
DUMB AZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
Man charged with stealing tracking device
JANESVILLE, Wis. (AP) — To track down this alleged thief, all police had to do was flick on a computer. A 40-year-old man was arrested Wednesday and charged with stealing a computerized tracking device that uses a global positioning system to keep track of jail prisoners on home detention. "He apparently didn't know what he had because he would be awfully stupid to steal a tracking device," said correctional officer Thomas Roth, who runs the home detention program at the Rock County Jail. The $2,500 device was temporarily placed outside a home by a woman serving home detention. The device, which is a little bigger than a brick in size, has a built-in GPS satellite receiver. Prisoners wear a transmitter about as big as a cigarette pack on the ankle, and it acts as a 100-foot tether to the portable tracking device. By the time the prisoner called to report the theft Monday night, the device had automatically notified the jail that it had been taken outside the prisoner's home area. Roth then tracked the device through the Internet on his home computer. A trail of electronic dots led authorities to an apartment building, where the suspect was captured. |
wow
that's all I can say |
You can't be serious. Are people really this dense?

Dope-Seeking Teens Call Cops by Mistake
AUSTIN, Minn. (AP) -- Two teens accused of searching for a marijuana dealer dialed the ultimate wrong number - they called the Mower County Sheriff's cell phone. Sheriff Terese Amazi's cell phone rang around noon on Friday. The caller said she wanted a bag of marijuana. After Amazi said she was the sheriff, the caller said, "I'm sorry," and hung up. A few minutes later, the phone rang again. This time, Amazi let a deputy answer. The caller again asked for a bag of marijuana, and the deputy - who called himself "Dupe" on the phone - arranged for a meeting at a convenience store an hour later. "Apparently, they didn't know the meaning of 'Dupe' as in 'duped' either," Amazi said. "It's incredible." The girls, ages 15 and 17, were arrested at the scene. Police said they found cash for the marijuana and drug paraphernalia on both girls. One was released to her parent and the other was turned over to a probation officer. "Not only did they do something wrong, but they should have been in school," Amazi said. |

Can't escape the Law.....
Inmate Falls Into Judge's Chambers
Sep 9, 7:41 AM (ET) DECATUR, Ga. (AP) - An inmate found himself before a judge sooner than he expected when he fell through the courthouse ceiling into the judge's chambers while trying to escape, police said. Ben N. Rogozensky, 31, was one of about a dozen inmates awaiting hearings Monday when he was taken to the empty jury room to speak with his attorney. The inmate asked to go into the adjacent restroom and from there climbed into the ceiling crawl space, DeKalb County sheriff's spokeswoman Mikki Jones said. State Court Judge J. Antonio DelCampo was in the courtroom when the barefoot Rogozensky fell through the ceiling and landed near the judge's desk in his chambers. A technician who was fixing the judge's computer called for security officers, who grabbed Rogozensky in the hallway. Rogozensky was arrested Sept. 2 and charged with obstruction of officers and giving false information. |

He flew 1st-crate to Texas
Ships self from Bx. to home By TRACIE POWELL in Dallas and DAVE GOLDINER in New York DAILY NEWS WRITERS Charles McKinley in Dallas jail cell yesterday, three days after stunning his parents and flooring deliveryman by popping out of air cargo box at journey's end. Charles McKinley wanted to fly home in the worst way. Leaving unpaid bills and bad blood, the fast-talking Texan packed himself in a crate and shipped himself from a Bronx warehouse to his parents' Texas home. Armed with a cell phone, McKinley, 25, completed the two-plane, 18-hour, 1,500-mile journey unscathed — but was arrested after he pried himself out of the wooden box Saturday. "I'm just a guy who really wanted to go home," McKinley told the Daily News in a jailhouse interview. "I wish I had taken a bus. Right now, I wish I had walked out of New York. "I would advise no one to ever do this," he told The Dallas Morning News. Law enforcement officials questioning McKinley labeled him a potential terrorist. "I never thought that I'd have a terrorist label on me," he said, adding that he couldn't help but "break down and cry when they did." McKinley said a friend talked him into riding along with clothes and a computer McKinley was shipping to Texas. Draped with a sheet, McKinley — who is 5-feet-8 and 170 pounds — hopped into a wooden box measuring 3-by-3 1/2 feet and 15 inches deep. He assumed it would be transported in a heated portion of a plane. At first, McKinley said, he worried about being discovered. But he got frightened when the temperature plunged during the second of his two cargo flights. "I was so scared," he said. "Nervous and scared." The head of the company that unwittingly shipped McKinley said he could easily have died if the crate had been put in an unpressurized cargo hold. "He took a hell of a chance," said Richard Phillips, head of Pilot Air Freight. McKinley was promptly jailed for 10 days on a warrant for passing a bad check, and the FBI was investigating whether he broke stowaway laws. But District Attorney Bill Hill said he could not cite any state laws that McKinley broke. "He violated the law of stupidity, if nothing else," Hill said. The weird tale started when someone from Metro Machine Technics of the Bronx ordered a heavy package sent to Texas. McKinley's buddy nailed him in Friday. Shipping company officials said he used his cell phone to direct a deliveryman to the crate sitting on a corner. McKinley said he didn't drink after 11 a.m. Friday to avoid needing a toilet. The 400-pound box was driven to Kennedy Airport, flown on a pressurized cargo plane to Fort Wayne, Ind., then on to Dallas. The trip cost more than $500. "He could've flown first class for that," Phillips said. Metro Machine will be billed, although company President Oscar Castillo insisted he doesn't know McKinley. Reaches the burbs Once in Dallas, McKinley's crate was picked up by deliveryman Billy Ray Thomas and brought to his parents' well-kept suburban home. Thomas got spooked when he spotted two eyes peering through a broken slat. He thought a body was inside, but seconds later McKinley pushed his way out. "He [nearly] turned red," McKinley recalled. "That's how scared he was." The prodigal son shook Thomas' hand and walked into his shocked parents' arms. His dad asked why he didn't take a bus. "I went inside, took a shower and had a big drink of water," McKinley said. "Then the cops came." Back in New York, friends warned to treat anything McKinley said with a grain of salt. Vivian Stokes, 47, said he ripped her off for months worth of rent in her Brooklyn home and racked up thousand of dollars in credit card charges, spun tales about family wealth and said his mother had died in a tragic car crash. McKinley's aunt Mary Carter said she spoke to the jailed stowaway's mother, Katie. "They're embarrassed. ... She's upset because her baby's in jail," Carter said. McKinley was already making plans for when he gets out of jail. "I know once this is over with, I'll probably go right back to New York," he said. He didn't say how. |

Crate-Man's in trouble....
Feds lower boom on crate man
By TRACIE POWELL in Dallas and DAVE GOLDINER in New York DAILY NEWS WRITERS For a while, it was just a crazy stunt. Now, it's a crime. Charles McKinley, the homesick man who shipped himself to Texas from the Bronx in a crate, was charged yesterday with being a stowaway on a plane. After spending most of the afternoon being quizzed in a Dallas jail, McKinley was expected to be taken into federal custody. He faces up to a year in prison. "I guess I'm going to have to get a lawyer," McKinley, 25, told the Daily News. "If anyone knows a good attorney, send him my way." As McKinley prepared to face the music, he struggled again to explain why he crawled into a small crate for a 1,500-mile journey. "I truly felt like I hit rock bottom in New York," he said. "I had to get out of there." Friends tried to make sense of his wacky trek, which started when a friend nailed him in and ended with his delivery to his parents' home. "I understand he's homesick and wants to go home, but ... wow," said Troy Felder of the Bronx, who occasionally let McKinley live with him. Echoing other acquaintances, Felder called McKinley a puzzle — a pleasant person who left a $400 phone bill and spun lies. McKinley said he was a bank loan officer, but he never went to work in the morning and left altogether for days at a time. Paul Parham, another friend, also said McKinley told tales of rich relatives and big-money jobs but struggled to find a place to stay. "He's been telling people too many lies," said Parham, 20, of Manhattan. "I couldn't handle it." McKinley said he called in the shipping order to UPS himself and was sealed in by another friend he said was also named Paul Parham. He gave a Bronx address and waited in the crate for the deliveryman. Authorities also were investigating how McKinley eluded security checks. "It certainly shows that we have more work to do on cargo security," said Homeland Security Department official Asa Hutchinson. "This situation could have led to disaster," added Jon Safley, president of the Coalition of Airline Pilots Associations. |
Come to think of it...yes, it could have led to a "disaster."
Don't want to talk about "scary thoughts," but if you think about it...imagine all the crazy things CERTAIN PEOPLE would do transporting themselves as cargo :eek: |
I don't remember exactly who this was, but didn't a slave do this to free himself? I remember discussing this in school, but I can't think of they guy's name. I think it was something like Henry "box" Brown, but I don't know. Does anyone know the man's name?

Did a quick search on Google.com and this is what I found:

Man kept wife's remains in backyard freezer...
Friday, September 12, 2003 Posted: 7:43 AM EDT (1143 GMT)
Rowlette told police he was keeping his wife's body frozen in hopes that someday science could bring her back to life. PHOENIX, Arizona (AP) -- A 75-year-old man stored his wife's body for nearly six years in his backyard, twisted and upside down in an old freezer, because he hoped she could someday be brought back to life, authorities said. When police went to Edwin Rowlette's home after receiving a tip from his daughter, they found dozens of cats along with feces and urine inside the house. The backyard, where one of the daughter's friends discovered the body, was cluttered with garbage, debris, insulation and furniture. Authorities found Marcia Lynn Rowlette's body packed in dry ice and insulation and stored along with the bodies of ten dead cats. Rowlette told police he used the cats for research. Rowlette was arrested last week on a felony charge of crimes against the dead. Investigators are trying to determine if he legally acquired his wife's body from a funeral home and whether he submitted the proper documents. "One of the areas that we're looking at is if he had committed a fraud in obtaining the body," said Prescott police Sgt. Michael Kabbel. Prescott, a pine-studded town of about 33,000, is located 90 miles north of Phoenix. Rowlette told police he was keeping his wife's body frozen in hopes that someday science could bring her back to life. Marcia Rowlette was wheelchair-bound and lived in a nursing home before she died Dec. 15, 1997:eek:, of respiratory failure. The 38-year-old woman had a history of rheumatoid arthritis and musculoskeletal problems. "She had a lot of congenital anomalies that made it difficult to do anything," said Karen Gere, medical investigator with the Yavapai County medical examiner's office. After her death, Marcia Rowlette's body was transferred to a funeral home. The body was released to the McCandless Research and Development Foundation after Rowlette submitted documents showing his wife's body was being donated for scientific research. Rowlette said he created the foundation in 1985 and calls it an organization that supports scientific research and humanitarian causes. Police are investigating whether the foundation is legitimate. The president of the Scottsdale, Arizona-based cryonics facility said to be storing the body of baseball great Ted Williams said he was unfamiliar with Rowlette's organization. Alcor Life Extension Foundation president Jerry B. Lemler also noted that cryonics is generally performed with liquid nitrogen, not dry ice, because liquid nitrogen is colder. "I hate to be the one to burst the bubble on this man's dream," Lemler said. "He had a dream that we share here at Alcor. But I don't think his methodology was very thought out." |
Mr. Rowlette ain't playing with a full deck. :eek: :eek:
On the real, it looks as if he has some psychological dysfunction, and should be evaluated. :( |
This mofo sounds weird. GROSS!!!

E-Spying on Your Lover Could Be Illegal - Experts
2 hours, 45 minutes ago Add Oddly Enough - Reuters to My Yahoo! By Elinor Mills Abreu SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - A company calling itself Lover Spy has begun offering a way for jealous lovers -- and anyone else -- to spy on the computer activity of their mates by sending an electronic greeting, the equivalent of a thinking-of-you card, that doubles as a bugging device. Computer security experts said the Lover Spy service and software appeared to violate U.S. law, but also said the surveillance program pointed to an increasingly common way for hackers to seize control of computers. Marketed as a way to "catch a cheating lover," the Lover Spy company offers to send an e-mail greeting card to lure the victim to a Web site that will download onto the victim's computer a trojan program to be used for spying. The Lover Spy software, sold for $89 for up to five computers, purports to record anything the victim does on the computer, including all keystrokes, passwords, e-mail, chats and screen shots and even turn on the victim's Web camera. The spy program discreetly sends the information to the Lover Spy server which then forwards it on to whoever paid for the software, maintaining their anonymity, according to the company Web site, which did not list contact information. "Lover Spy is being used today by private investigators worldwide, spouses and parents who want to protect their children," the site claims. "You don't need physical access to the computer," said Richard Smith, an independent privacy and security researcher in Boston. "It makes it so you can spy on anybody you want." "That would be a felony," said Mark Rasch, former head of the U.S. Department of Justice (news - web sites)'s computer crime unit and chief security counsel for security company Solutionary. "Loading a program onto someone else's computer without their authorization is patently illegal." "Yikes! That is clearly a wiretapping violation," Chris Hoofnagle, associate director of the Electronic Privacy Information Center, said when told of Lover Spy. "It sounds a lot like a commercial version of Magic Lantern," the controversial program the FBI (news - web sites) proposed a few years ago to remotely install a keystroke logger onto people under investigation, he said. Other spyware exists, such as eBlaster from Florida-based SpectorSoft, but it is installed manually and marketed for customers to install on their own computer, Rasch said. "Typically, you have a husband or wife who puts a keystroke logger on the home PC to monitor what Web pages the spouse is going to and what e-mails they're sending," he said. However, even installing a spyware program on your own computer may be illegal if it is recording the data of someone else without their consent, depending on the state in which the spying occurs, Hoofnagle said. Not only could the Lover Spy company be prosecuted for selling software that enables spying, but the person who pays for the service could face up to 10 years in prison and fines for actual damages under the federal Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, he said. Web sites that surreptitiously send programs to a visitor's computer are an increasingly security menace, said Chris Wysopal, research director at security consultancy AtStake in Boston. "The risk has always been there, but when the tools are really easy to use you are going to see more spying going on," he said. The only defenses are anti-virus software, which may be able to detect the spyware, and a personal computer firewall which can alert a user when the trojan tries to connect to the Internet to send data out, according to Wysopal. People should be cautious about allowing Web sites to run unknown code on their PC, he added. |
I guess all the cybersexy people better beware. :eek: :D :eek: :D

Tiger and Alligator Shared Apartment
Mon Oct 6, 9:59 AM ET Add Oddly Enough - Reuters to My Yahoo! NEW YORK (Reuters) - New York has been described as a concrete jungle, but one Harlem resident seems to have taken that literally as police were called in to remove a tiger and an alligator from his apartment. Tipped off by phone calls from neighbors, police on Saturday found the wildlife in the apartment of 31-year-old Antoine Yates, who faces charges of reckless endangerment. A police sharpshooter fired a tranquilizer dart through the window of the fifth floor apartment to subdue the tiger, which weighed up to 500 pounds (225 kg), according to an NYPD spokesman. Along with the tiger, believed to be a Siberian-Bengal mix, police found a 3-foot (one-meter) alligator in the flat. Yates was not on the premises when police rappelled down the side of the apartment building in their urban safari mission, but was found on Saturday night receiving treatment for animal bites at a Philadelphia hospital. At the request of the NYPD, Philadelphia police were dispatched to make sure Yates did not leave the hospital until New York officers arrived to bring him back to Manhattan, a Philadelphia police spokesman said on Sunday. The animals, who were moved to a New York animal shelter, will eventually be sent to a zoo in Ohio, according to Wes Artope, director of the New York City Center for Animal Care and Control. |
i really believe there should be laws in place to prevent the import of these "exotic pets" ie. wild, undomesticated animals to be used as "pets". what kind of idiot would have a 400 lb.-plus tiger and an alligater living in their home? at the very least, this fool needs to be evicted.
how some folks think the way they do is mindboggling:eek: |
Umm but I wanna know how did ol boy manage to have WILD KINGDOM in da projects!!?!?!?!?
|
This story is all over the New York City news. One neighbor said that she didn't have to take her kids to the zoo now because they saw a tiger and an alligator up close. It is one of those bizarre, "only in New York" stories.
|
Okay, how do you keep a 500 lb. tiger and a 3 foot alligator in an APARTMENT?! Were was the alligator kept, in the dayum tub...lol Also didn't the tiger need to be walked for exercise and to relieve himself. Who didn't notice a tiger roaring and coming in and out of an apartment? If the tiger didn't leave the apartment...ewww! WTH!!!
|
HC Dude was on television talking about how the tiger was like his brother - WTH?????? :eek: :eek:
Dude has some sandwiches missing from his "picnic basket". |
