Weird Stories of the Year - 2005

A taxi driver in Dallas, Texas, was prosecuted for sprinkling dried faeces on pastries in a grocery shop. Customers had complained that the fresh-baked items smelled and tasted like manure.

A 29-year-old woman in the UK admitted that she had not washed her hair in 11 years.

A traffic warden slapped a parking ticket on a car which had its dead driver slumped at the wheel outside a shopping mall in Sydney, Australia. The warden failed to notice the man inside and issued the parking fine two days before the body was discovered.

Odd fish with human faces caused a sensation in South Korea. They were actually mutants born of carp and leather carp - but they looked really scary and spooky.

A straying couple in Jordan both started sizzling affairs in cyberspace. But the bad news for both is they found out they were married to each other.

A British bank had to apologise to a customer after they sent him a debit card bearing the name "Mr Dick Head". Very embarrassingly for the card owner, he did not spot the mistake until he tried to buy something at a supermarket.

A parcel that vibrated and made strange noises sparked off a bomb alert in a German post office. Workers contacted the owner, who was forced to explain the contents - they turned out to be an inflatable sex doll.

A cat chewed the toes off the right foot of an elderly woman with senile dementia while she was asleep at a home for the aged in Japan. Workers found the 88-year-old woman bleeding from her feet, with all the toes missing from her right foot. Paw prints of a cat were found on the floor of the room.

A giant 13-foot (3.9m) python exploded after attacking and attempting to eat an alligator. Rangers in the Everglades National Park, Florida, found the snake lying dead with the 6-foot (1.6m) alligator protruding from its middle.

Dog lovers mourned the death of Sam, the world's ugliest dog. Sam became a celebrity after winning an ugly pet contest in the US twice. When Sam died, its owner said: "I don't think there'll ever be another Sam. Some people might think that's a good thing."

A sparrow nearly ruined a world record attempt at dominoes when it flew in through an exhibition centre window and knocked down 23,000 tiles. Organisers shot the little bird, causing an outcry. As a tribute, the bird's body will be displayed in a museum.

A court in Ontario acquitted a man of sexual assault charges because he suffered from "Sexsomnia" and was, as he claimed, asleep at the time of the incident.

Good Evening Ananth,
the "old saying" which you just made up about laughter is a bit of good advice.
It reminds me of someone who always finished a posting on this website with:- you don't give up laughing when you grow old, you grow old when you give up laughing. I think this is so true.
Keep Smiling
John

Hello John,
How are you - keeping well, I am sure. I have been told by a lot of people that I had a great sense of humor and also realsied ,when I contracted Cancer that as there was no way I could turn back the clock of life - it was making it easier if one kept smiling and sharing the reason to smile with others. What you said is equally true and I really wish more and more people would subscribe to this rather then talking all day and night about cancer. Though I understand this is a cancer forum - I am all in favor of helping people but people also must help themselves as this is one way to forget problems and have a good laugh (even if the joke is one oneself).
Keeping your post in mind - I have this strong feeling you will never ever grow old!!!
Take care and and warm regards,
Ananth

TALKING CLOCK

Proudly showing off her newly leased downtown apartment to a couple of friends late one night, a drunk Female yuppie led the way to her bedroom where there was a big brass gong hanging on the wall.

'What's that big brass gong for?' one of the friend's asked.

'Issss nod a gong. Issss a talking clock' she drunkenly replied.

'A talking clock - seriously?'

'Yup.' 'Hmmm (hic).'

'How's it work?' the second friend asked, squinting at it.

'Just Watch' she said.

She picked up a hammer, gave the gong an 'ear-shattering bash ' and stepped back. Her three mates stood looking at one another for a moment in astounded silence.

Suddenly, a voice from the other side of the wall screamed 'For f*#k's sake, it's ten past three in the f*#king morning!!!'

Just loved that one Trev!!!
Keep posting some more like the Kevin - the rooster one.That was just fantastic.

Love and hugs,
Ananth
