Friday Fun

- The Ponoka News police blotter. Read it!

Excerpt:

This weeks [sic] most unusual complaint referred to a Scrabble game, gone horribly wrong. A woman reported that she was having a friendly game of on-line Scrabble with someone, she believed to be a kindly, grandmotherly type. During their “chat” she was provided instructions as to how to set up and activate her web-cam (it came with her new PC) so that they could see each other as they played and chatted. The web cam was fired up and “oh dear!”, Granny looked like an ugly man. In fact, given that she had an Adam’s apple, she probably was an ugly man. This she found to be a little weird. What really mortified her was the second man, standing behind Granny, madly tugging on a part of his lower anatomy, commonly believed to cause blindness. The proper term for which is potentially a “Triple, Triple word score” if positioned just so.

Someone give that officer a book deal.

- Which came first? The chicken or the egg? 'How two philosophers and a farmer cracked an age-old conundrum'.

- This says it all, doesn't it?



- Activists are rewarded with an ear in Hungary. Could have been worse, I suppose...

- A Happy Taxpayers Association? Wacky Finns!

- Namibians are happy too, although for different reasons:

LANGSTRAND, Namibia (Reuters) -- Half of Namibians voting in an informal radio survey believe the day Angelina Jolie gives birth should be declared a national holiday, an honor usually reserved for kings, queens and national heroes.

Every country needs a 'labor day'.
