April 4, 2004 I DON'T KNOW WHAT'S BEST FOR ME: After drinking beer and cider for some hours at a bar in Eskilstuna, Sweden, a woman downed five shots of tequila in five minutes. She then threw up and was rushed to the hospital. She is suing the bar for serving her too much booze. JUST LET THE DEER AND THE ANTELOPE PLAY, OK? Six teenagers drove their sport utility vehicle into the forest near Interstate 90 in Gillette, Wyo., to chase a herd of antelope, zig-zagging around them and scaring them half to death. They were charged with harassment. REALITY RADIO: A disc jockey who had not been paid for some
time seized control of his radio station in Bucharest, Romania, and
demanded over the air that he be paid, threatening to jump off a balcony
if he were not. DON'T LET THE TERRORISTS WIN: A Kentucky senator running for
reelection remarked in a speech that his opponent, an Italian, looks
like one of Saddam Hussein's sons. INTELLECTUAL HONESTY: In order to get pay increases, six teachers in Lawrenceville, Ga., obtained phony post-graduate degrees from St. Regis University, an online school in Liberia. No study or test-taking were required for the master's and doctorates, only a check. The teachers are being asked to give back their raises.
