I think it's bullshit. I just can't see something like that not getting discovered untill some kid gets his clothes cut up. It's also Star Wars, Since when do bullies use Star Wars to bully people? :lol:

Damn I think I saw this thread before then Crash_Wildebeest started another one. So, I'm putting a link to this great story here. Just so's you don't miss it. It's Great. Onion said so. I said so. Middle of page, post #16 "customers cook up trouble with fake penis."

I also just posted this one in its relevant thread, but it's pretty good, so >link<. "Renowned Doctor Falls for Internet Scam."

So which thread are we supposed to use now?
I guess Crash_Wildebeest's was gaining more momentum until I just now put the brakes on.

No answer -- so since this one's already bumped higher than the other, I guess I'll post this here:

Professor Allegedly Shows Explicit Video
Friday, March 3, 2006
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. - A criminal justice professor at Grand Rapids Community College has resigned after showing a video in class of a man having sex with a pig, students and a faculty representative said.

A school administrator confirmed that Samuel Naves, 47, resigned Feb. 17, but would not comment on why he left.

However, students and a faculty leader said the resignation had to do with the video. They said Naves was teaching an introductory criminal justice class earlier this year when he was going through video files on his computer.

The video appeared on a projection screen and students begged Naves to show the 10-second footage, according to the accounts.

Faculty association president Fred vanHartesveldt said the incident occurred this year. He said Naves was known for a blunt teaching style.

"His pedagogy was to teach real life," vanHartesveldt told The Grand Rapids Press. "His classes were very earthy. Some students took to that very well, and some students didn't."

Naves, who had worked at the college since 1997, declined to comment to the newspaper.

Woman Enters Exhibit, Elephant Smacks Her
Friday, March 3, 2006
WACO, Texas - A 25-year-old woman climbed past barriers and into an elephant's zoo exhibit, then crawled out with minor injuries after the 6,000-pound animal smacked her with its trunk.

"That's how an elephant reacts to something they would perceive as a threat," said Cameron Park Zoo director Jim Fleshman.

After saying she wanted to play with the elephant, the woman climbed over a 3-feet-high wood-and-wire fence, scaled an 8-foot-tall artificial rock structure and bypassed an electric wire before jumping into the exhibit Thursday afternoon, Fleshman said. A moat extends around most of the exhibit.

After the woman got out, fire and emergency crews took her to a hospital with minor injuries, including scrapes on her side and arm. Waco Fire Capt. Greg Kistler said the woman, whose name was not released, was visiting the zoo with a child and another woman.

The exhibit contains two female African elephants that have been at the zoo at least nine years. Only one of the elephants struck the woman.

Both animals were stressed after the incident and were moved to a private area for part of the afternoon, and one didn't want to return to the exhibit even later in the day. But both were back for visitors to see Friday, Fleshman said.

"They're not used to somebody being in their space," he said.

^ Actually, she taught the kid an important lesson. :roll:

Looks like I've relegated myself the task of "Rathergood News Editor."
Hm. Ratherokay.
Today's Headlines:

Growing Aussies Need Sturdier Toilets
Monday, March 6, 2006
SYDNEY, Australia - Sturdier toilets may be on their way in Australia to cope with the country's increasingly obese population.

Standards Australia, a nongovernment group that establishes safety and design standards, is considering recommending strengthening loos for larger users, a spokeswoman said Tuesday.

Obesity levels have been rising for years in Australia.

Standards Australia spokeswoman Kate Evans said the current industry standard for toilet seats is just 100 pounds and that the group is looking to increase it to 330 pounds.

Experts will examine the seats "from the perspective that people are getting bigger," Evans said.

Steve Cummings, a committee member for Standards Australia and head of research and development at toilet maker Caroma Dorf, told Sydney tabloid The Daily Telegraph that toilet seats need to be strengthened for larger Australians.

"If you are going to sit on it, you want it to hold you," he said.

A few tidbits from www.newsoftheweird.com :

Ironies
Jacqueline Dotson was seriously injured in an accident near Winchester, Ky., in February that police say happened when she lost control of her SUV and ran several other cars off the road before overcorrecting, which caused the SUV to roll over a guardrail and land upside down. A rescue crew labored an hour and a half with the "jaws of life" to extricate her from the vehicle, but one of her arms was already free, severed in the accident and lying on the road, still grasping a cell phone. [WLEX-TV (Lexington), 2-3-06]

The Litigious Society
After two boys at PS 14 in New York City taunted a 5-year-old classmate in January three times by grabbing his privates, school officials held a hearing and referred the boys for guidance counseling. Unsatisfied, the younger boy's parents in February filed a lawsuit against the already-budget-challenged New York City school system for $6 million. [New York Post, 2-5-06]

Massachusetts inmate Joseph Schmitt, 41, filed a lawsuit for $70,000 against the Department of Corrections in December for restricting his ability to continue his writing career from lockup. Schmitt, now in civil detainment (as exceptionally dangerous) following completion of his sentence for child rape, previously earned up to $20,000 a year writing pornography (including at least one piece on child sex) and sees no reason why he can't return to that line of work. [Boston Herald, 12-27-06]

About four years back The Sun did a little column on an American lawsuit against Disney World. A waitress spilt hot coffee in his lap and scoulded his cock. They had to pay around $300,000 dollars (not exactly sure cause it was so long ago), $40,000 of which went to his wife cause they couldn't get it on for a few months.

Toilet Paper Dispute Overflows Into Fight
Wednesday, March 8, 2006
CHARLESTON, S.C. - An argument over toilet paper overflowed into a fight, sending one motel maid to the hospital and another to jail.

The maids at the Siesta Motor Lodge in North Charleston armed themselves with a plunger and mop after accusing each other of taking toilet paper from each other's cleaning carts, North Charleston police said.

Deloris Smith, 47, is charged with assault and battery of a high and aggravated nature. A magistrate set her bail Friday at $5,000.

The argument began about 9:40 a.m. Thursday in the motel's laundry room. The 52-year-old maid wounded in the scuffle said Smith grabbed a mop and hit her on the arms. She was taken to a hospital with minor injuries, police said.

Smith said she was defending herself from her co-worker's plunger.

Cat Comforts Grieving Orangutan at Zoo
Thursday, March 9, 2006
PANAMA CITY BEACH, Fla. - Tondalayo, a 45-year-old Sumatran orangutan, and T.J., a stray tabby cat, became an inseparable duo after a zoo employee introduced them late last year.

Stephanie Willard, Education Director at Zoo World in Panama City Beach, said Tondalayo was depressed since losing her mate two years ago.

Her age prevented her from moving to another zoo or taking another mate. The ducks and turtles swimming in a moat around her island were not enough, Willard told the Panama City News Herald for Thursday's editions.

When the sweet-natured orange cat wandered into Willard's life, the solution became clear.

"It's an unbelievable match," Willard said. "This has worked out a lot better than I expected it to. She's got brighter eyes now. He's brought a lot of light to her."

Zookeepers named the cat, T.K. - short for "Tondalayo's Kitty."

They play together, cuddle and sleep together each night. They have been together constantly for more than a month.

"He's perked up Tonda more than anything," Willard said.

[Sorry, no pictures :? :( ]

The two Giant Pandas at Chang Mai zoo got it on for the first time in their two years together a month or so ago. Our front page consisted of a blow by blow account of their foreplay and fucking. To start the male wasn't interested and kept pushing her away but she wasn't having any of it and persevered (the slut).

Love to sell Nirvana back catalogue
Troubled rocker COURTNEY LOVE is cashing-in on the legacy of her late husband KURT COBAIN by selling a 25 per cent share of the NIRVANA back catalogue.
The former HOLE frontwoman currently receives a substantial amount in royalty payments from airplay and sales of Nirvana songs - including smash hits SMELLS LIKE TEEN SPIRIT and COME AS YOU ARE - after acquiring the rights following her husband's suicide in 1994.
Love confirms, "Its not a fire sale or anything but I'm selling 25 per cent of the catalogue for quite a lot of money." (AS/WNSMI/SC)

Wonder why she needs the cash? :roll:

Now back to some entertainment news of the good variety!

The Notorious Bettie Page to be in theatres this spring
2006-02-21

Bettie Page fans will soon have a new opportunity to look into her life and career. “The Notorious Bettie Page,” a dramatic biopic written and directed by Mary Harron, will open on April 14, 2006.

Bettie Page remains the ultimate pin-up icon of all time. She appeared in magazines, on record albums, playing cards and more. She was a centerfold for Playboy magazine in 1955. Her “girl next door” image, combined with her innocent smile and perfect figure captured the hearts of many, and today her fans continue to follow her fascinating life and career.

The film will chronicle the life of Bettie Page, as she challenges the traditionalism of the conservative 1950s and faces a Senate committee investigation on juvenile delinquency. Gretchen Mol stars as the legendary pin-up queen. Co-stars include Lili Taylor, David Strathairn and Jonathan M. Woodward.

The film is not endorsed by Bettie Page.

Although this^ was pasted from her official site.
