February 17, 2002 THAT'S 12 OR LESS! WHAP! GET IT? WHAP! A woman took 13 items
into a 12-items-or-fewer express checkout lane at a Massachusetts
supermarket, and the woman behind her in line took issue in no uncertain
terms. A LITTLE HELP HERE! A 8-month-old female moose climbed onto
the deck of a home in Anchorage, Alaska, then stepped over a low railing
onto the next-door roof of a shed where flowers are stored. But the
fiberglass roof couldn't support the 400-pound animal, and three of her
legs punched through. The beast dangled 8 feet off the ground for the
next three hours until rescuers got her out. AND ANYWAY, IT WAS FAR MORE INTERESTING: A candidate for
governor of Ohio was being interviewed on a Cleveland radio station,
when his hosts interrupted the discussion to judge the annual Breast
Fest contest. Five women came in to have their boobies examined and
compared. The candidate claimed he had to wait until the contest was
over to leave because he didn't want to make a scene. BLASPHEMOUS? WHY WOULD ANYONE THINK THAT? An architecture
student at Penn State University turned a bathroom stall into a Catholic
confessional booth complete with red velvet curtains, a red light and a
side window with a metal screen. He received an "A" for the
class project. HEY DRIVER, YOU'RE GOING THE WRONG WAY: A 15-year-old boy and
two adults ordered a limousine to pick them up in Buffalo, N.Y., and
gave the number of a stolen credit card. Unfortunately for them, the
rightful owner of the credit card had already reported the theft. Mike Pingree
writes another Looking Glass column
in the Boston Sunday Herald. You can read it by clicking here: |
