I'll admit that the first bite of a Big Mac is pretty damn yummy.

(The second bite is less yummy, and by the 4th bite or so, it starts to taste gross. But that's just me.)

This guy ate his 25,000th Big Mac on Tuesday. It took him 39 years to the day to reach that milestone. Break out the calculator, and you'll see that he averages 1.75 Big Macs a day.

In the story, he says that in those 39 years, there were only 8 days that he missed eating a Big Mac.

On his first day, he ate 9 of them. It's his favorite food.

Japanese kewpie mayo is great mixed with tuna and Hellman's isn't bad either. Wouldn't touch any of the other brands though.

Rhianne 05-26-2011 08:28 AM

Manslaughter is a little different in Italy - any fan of motorsport will tell you that.

There is, pretty much, no such thing as an 'accidental' death in Italy - somone can always be found responsible in some small way and they are often convicted of manslaughter. It doesn't mean they're going to jail for twenty years.

When Ayrton Senna was killed at Imola in 1994 just about everyone faced that charge - the race organisers, the officials, the circuit owners, his team principle, his engineers, the designer of the car etc. In the end, from memory, only the head of the car design department was convicted and he received no punishment whatsoever.

> Johnstown, PA (GlossyNews) - Local and state police scoured the hills outside rural Johnstown, Pennsylvania, after reports of three animal rights activists going missing after attempting to protest the wearing of leather at a large motorcycle gang rally this weekend. Two others, previously reported missing, were discovered by fast food workers "duct taped inside fast food restaurant dumpsters," according to police officials.
>
> "Something just went wrong,"said a still visibly shaken organizer of the protest. "Something just went horribly, horribly, wrong."The organizer said a group of concerned animal rights activist groups, "growing tired of throwing fake blood and shouting profanities at older women wearing leather or fur coats," decided to protest the annual motorcycle club event "in a hope to show them our outrage at their wanting to use leather in their clothing and motor bike seats." "In fact," said the organizer, "motorcycle gangs are one of the biggest abusers of wearing leather, and we decided it was high time that we let them know that we disagree with them using it. ergo, they should stop."
>
> According to witnesses, protesters arrived at the event in a vintage 1960's era Volkswagen van and began to pelt the gang members with balloons filled with red colored water, simulating blood, and shouting "you're murderers" to passers by. This, evidently, is when the brouhaha began.
>
> "They peed on me!!!" charged one activist. "They grabbed me, said I looked like I was French, started calling me 'La Trene', and duct taped me to a tree so they could pee on me all day!"
>
> Still others claimed they were forced to eat hamburgers and hot dogs under duress. Those who resisted were allegedly held down while several bikers "farted on their heads."
>
> Police officials declined comments on any leads or arrests due to the ongoing nature of the investigation; however, organizers for the motorcycle club rally expressed "surprise" at the allegations.
>
> "That's preposterous,"said one high-ranking member of the biker organizing committee. "We were having a party, and these people showed up and were very rude to us. They threw things at us, called us names, and tried to ruin the entire event. So, what did we do? We invited them to the party! What could be more friendly than that? You know, just because we are all members of motorcycle clubs does not mean we do not care about inclusiveness. Personally, I think it shows a lack of character for them to be saying such nasty things about us after we bent over backwards to make them feel welcome."
>
> When confronted with the allegations of force-feeding the activists meat, using them as ad hoc latrines, leaving them incapacitated in fast food restaurant dumpsters, and 'farting on their heads,' the organizer declined to comment in detail. "That's just our secret handshake,"assured the organizer.

Independence Police Shoot At Concrete Alligator
 
Quote:

INDEPENDENCE, Mo.—
An alligator caused a lot of commotion for one Independence man Sunday when three Independence police officers shot at his concrete lawn ornament.

Rick Sheridan was working in his garage when he heard gunshots. He went around the back of his house to a pond, where he saw three police officers. The three officers had spotted the gator and were lined up on the bank, shooting at the large reptile.

The officer fired two rounds, and killed my concrete, ornamental alligator," Sheridan said.

After realizing their bullets were bouncing off the yard art alligator, police left. Sheridan says now he plans to patch up his wounded gator.

Quote:

A 40-year-old Bangladeshi woman cut off a man's penis during an alleged attempted rape and took it to a police station as evidence, police in a remote part of Bangladesh said, according to CBS affiliate KPHO.

The woman, a married mother of three, was attacked while she was sleeping in her shanty Saturday night, officers told Agence France Presse (AFP).

"As he tried to rape her, the lady cut his penis off with a knife. She then wrapped up the penis in a piece of polythene and brought it to the Jhalakathi police station as evidence of the crime," police chief Abul Khaer said, reported KPHO.

The woman has filed a case accusing the man -- who is also 40 and a married father of five himself -- of attempted rape, saying that he had been harassing her for six months.

The severed penis has been kept at the police station and the rape suspect was undergoing treatment in hospital.

"We shall arrest him once his condition gets better," Khaer told AFP.

:lol: No, I DON'T want 8 million, I want 7.9 million. Sheesh. Oh, 3 grand? I'll take it.

Maybe he figured the withdrawal slip would look less suspicious if he only asked for 7.9, or maybe he figured the bank would likely have 7.9 million lying around, but probably not have 8 mill lying around.

It's not even possible to carry $8 million. This is what $1 million looks like (Except you have to replace those singles with $100 bills.) $8 million in $100 bills would weigh about 160 pounds. They would need a very large wheelbarrow.

Bird-watcher wrongly arrested for possession of pot had sage in backpack

Quote:

Sheriff's Deputy Dominic Raimondi, 51, mistook Brown's sage for marijuana, then searched her car and found more. His field kit said the sage — purchased at an airport gift shop in Albuquerque, N.M. — tested positive for marijuana.

He did not arrest her that day in March 2009, but sent the 50 grams of "contraband" to the crime lab for a more definitive test.

Assistant State Attorney Mark Horn ordered Brown's arrest without having the sage tested, court records show.

Three months later, Raimondi showed up at the Massage Envy in Weston where Brown works and took her away in handcuffs.

"They arrested me in front of my customers, my boss, my co-workers," Brown said. She later was subjected to a body cavity search, a strip search and an overnight stay in jail.

A month later, Brown's attorney discovered that the sage had never been tested at the Broward Sheriff's Office crime lab.

"When I found out they didn't do a lab test, I was outraged," said her Miami attorney, Bill Ullman. "I raised hell about that."

On July 23, 2009, Ullman demanded that the sage be tested.

The lab test concluded that the dried sage was not marijuana at all.

The criminal charges were dropped.

Ullman said one apologetic prosecutor called him to say it was "scary" someone could be arrested under such circumstances.

"Our policy is to make sure the evidence is tested at the very least before trial," said Ron Ishoy, spokesman for the Broward State Attorney's Office. "Looking back now at this specific police report, it would have been the better practice to test the evidence before filing a formal charge."

Field tests are unreliable and can give a false positive, said John Kelly, a forensic drug test expert based in Washington, D.C.

Brown filed a civil lawsuit claiming public humiliation, mental pain and suffering. The suit accuses the Broward State Attorney's Office of negligence and malicious prosecution.

Circuit Judge John Bowman dismissed the case in January, saying prosecutors are given immunity from lawsuits in the course of doing their jobs.

The press should shine a huge spotlight on prosecutor fuck ups. These political appointees and elected officials should lose their jobs when they don't even try for a bare minimum of competency.

classicman 06-06-2011 08:45 AM

ZenGum 06-06-2011 07:54 PM

I think it should be like with doctors. A simple "adverse outcome" carries no blame, but failure to exercise due care counts as a form of neglligence or malpractice. This person was essentially raped by the cops and has no avenue for grievance. That is wrong.
