The most weird or stupid news story you heard today.

He was, kind of, then there's the follow up interview, the current one.

Coy no longer.

The guy's a nut, and his party is just as bad, but man...
You'll note that the sex he had with another man, that was gross, but sex with a mule he didn't seem to have a problem with.

When Ms. Posner died in March at age 67, Conchita and two other dogs inherited the right to live in her seven-bedroom, $8.3 million Miami Beach mansion, their comfort ensured by a $3 million trust fund.

The canines weren't the only ones who benefited from Ms. Posner's munificence. Seven of her bodyguards, housekeepers and other personal aides were left a total of $26 million under her will, and some also were allowed to live, rent-free, in the mansion to care for the dogs.

Now, in an attempt to revoke the will, Ms. Posner's only living child, Bret Carr, has filed a lawsuit against a bevy of his mother's former staff members and advisers alleging a dark intrigue. Household aides, he claims, drugged his sick mother with pain medications and conspired to steal her assets by inducing her to change her will and trust arrangements in 2008. Others, including his mother's trust attorney, he alleges, used their influence to bend her wishes. Mr. Carr, who was bequeathed a relatively paltry $1 million in his mother's will, makes the claims in a lawsuit filed last week in probate court in Miami-Dade County.

Wooooow. She either really loved those dogs or really hated her son. Or both.

Man if I hated my kids I'd screw with them too. But I'd probably just try and spend it all before I went.

I really get the feeling he didn't care what was going on in her house before he got shafted. Her will is valid and she didn't like you. All 20-odd staff members are not running a conspiracy. Apparently they took very good care of your mom and so she is returning the favor. Deal with it.

LONDON (AFP) – A cat which lost both back paws after a traumatic accident involving a combine harvester has regained a spring in its step after being fitted with prosthetic limbs.

In a groundbreaking surgery carried out by Noel Fitzpatrick, a Surrey-based veterinary surgeon, the custom-made implants "peg" the ankle to Oscar's foot and mimic the way in which deer antler bone grows through skin.

The prosthetic legs, called intraosseous transcutaneous amputation prosthetics (Itaps) were developed by a team from University College London, led by Professor Gordon Blunn.

There is a picture with the article. I saw another story that used the term "faux paws" in its headline

Menawhile, these guys tried to sell weed online for an iPad

^^^Can you imagine that cat's reaction when he woke up from surgery and looked at his "paws?" I'm imagining something like "Emporer's New Groove."

Not for the squeamish:

Cops: Ind. woman tries taking baby, stabs parents

The woman had a miscarriage, didn't tell anyone including her own husband, walked around for months with a pillow under her shirt, and then, as her original due date approached, she identified a couple with a newborn baby and tried to kill them and take the baby and pass him off as her own. What a psycho.

What gets me is that her husband apparently was completely fooled. For all those months, he never saw her naked or in her underwear, he never saw her dressed without her belly pillow, he never saw a used tampon or pad in the trash, he never drove her to her OB/GYN for a prenatal checkup, and he believed he was feeling the baby kick when she "jostle[d] a paintbrush she'd slipped inside the pillow". I wonder if he still would have bought it if he'd come home from work one day to find his wife standing there, month-old baby in her arms, walking around just fine instead of flat on her back in bed. Would he have even wondered why she didn't call him so he could be at her side when she gave birth?

The story isn't funny but your commentary is.

No, the story isn't funny. I feel sorry for her that she wanted to have a baby so badly but couldn't. She went off the deep end, though, and she needs to be locked up for a while and get psychological help.

The weird and stupid part, to me, is the fact that her husband was so dense that, when she stuffed a pillow under her shirt and told him she was still pregnant and wiggled a paintbrush around and told him it was the baby kicking - he bought it. For months.

I believe this belongs in this category because the first thing I thought after reading the headline was Office Space:

A Balinese teenager caught in the act of intercourse with a cow passed out on Friday when he was forced to marry the animal in a ceremony witnessed by hundreds of curious onlookers.

As the Jakarta Globe reported earlier in the day, Ngurah Alit, 18, an unemployed youth from the seaside village of Yeh Embang in Jembrana, was caught stark naked positioned behind the cow in a rice paddy field.

In his defence, Alit admitted to the act of bestiality but claimed the cow, which he believed was a young and beautiful woman, had wooed him with flattering compliments.

As part of a Pecaruan ritual, a ceremony to cleanse the village of the unholy act of a man mating with a cow, Alit was forced to "marry" the animal.

Alit, however, according to Detik.com, passed out surrounded by locals and police, who were attempting to prevent a number of journalists from covering the spectacle.

It is unclear whether or not he got to say "I do."

Alit's collapse prompted his mother to begin screaming hysterically, while other family members shouted at photographers not to take pictures.

"Poor kid. He's actually a quiet kid," said one villager.

As part of the ceremony, Alit's victim and new bride was drowned in ocean.

Alit, on the other hand, was symbolically drowned and bathed on the beach.

"Only his clothes were thrown into the sea," the villager said.

Village chief Ida Bagus Legawa declared that the village had been "cleansed" from the "defilement from the incident."
