Weird news of the day.
Pedophiles on Facebook?
A rumor followed this wall post suggestion that the cartoon cause was originally sponsored by pedophiles operating on the social networking site in a ruse to attract young members to “friend” them with the bait being a friendly cartoon profile picture.
We’re watching this story and will update as additional details become available.
(UFOnews) Today the UK Archives have released over 4,000 new pages of close encounters with the third kind. See: http://ufos.nationalarchives.gov.uk/
What do two men seeing a lemon-shaped head on an alien have to do with the movie “Independence Day”? Maybe nothing “Maybe everything” says one researcher that found, in the UK, reportings of sightings closely corresponded with the release of major motion pictures featuring alien themes.
Look in the sky, but don’t tell anyone, or they will GET YOU!
(newsJAPAN) Giant squids have accumulated in vast numbers off the Sea of Japan, hampering seafarers and shipping lanes alike. Fishermen have redoubled efforts to keep nets clear with two fishermen unaccounted for since Sunday afternoon.
“It’s the worse attack we’ve ever seen” is the description of one Japanese fisherman (translated by Roger DeWalt, on location in a coastal village).
Countless fishermen are seeking government relief, attempting to head off desperation and bankuptcy in an already falling market.
(Israel) A woman bought a surprise gift for her mother, a new mattress, which unknowingly contained the mother’s life savings, apprx. one million dollars.
The money is now lost somewhere within three garbage dumps, amongst 2,500 tones of garbage that is dumped every day. The dumps have increased security to keep out treasure hunters and the woman, her mother and friends continue their frantic search. Who wouldn’t?
(MidNews) A homeless man was almost arrested at a metal recycling plant as he was selling 40lbs of copper.
It seems that the homeless man (name unavailable) was turning in more than 40lbs of flattened pennies retrieved from alongside railroad tracks, and when the clerk at the metal recycling shop realized what the medal was and the police were called.
“There was no arrest” said Sgt. Flaherty, spokesman for Midtown PD “but the appropriate authorities were called before that decision was made”. An insider, that wished to remain anonymous, reported that the FBI and Treasury agents were also called in, as the copper was “currency, despite it’s present condition” and destruction is outlined as a crime in the federal statutes concerning currency.
(BANGOR) A respected lawyer (EDITOR: hehe) with more than 3 outstanding traffic tickets had his vehicle “booted” with the expectation that he would call the police, pay his outstanding fines, and get on with his life.
Denver Boot
When the boot is placed on a vehicle “A large orange poster is stuck to the vehicle’s windscreen to notify the driver that the vehicle has been ‘booted’ ” says Officer McLure, “so it’s unreasonable to expect anyone to still attempt to move their vehicle when booted”.
The state bar is also expected to investigate “possible criminal activity” since the damage to the “boot” caused when the unnamed lawyer attempted to drive away could be charged as “criminal mischief causing felony damage to state property”.
