Listener Daniel spotted this on a blog & emailed it to us… Seems the customer at a fast food restaurant was talking on the phone while he placed his order.  During his phone conversation he happened to speak the number 16.  And yes, you guessed it, the guy ended up with 16 No. 4 combo meals!  It was so great everyone in line started clapping."

 

19-year-old Michael Black of Scranton, Pennsylvania, is facing charges of making a false police report.  He suffered a concussion and cuts on his body.  He told police that three men jumped him, stripped off his shirt, slashed his chest with razor blades and struck him in the head.  Later, he admitted that he'd actually left his home angry about "personal issues," stripped off his shirt, and cut himself on thorny branches as he ran through the woods shirtless and punching trees until he slipped on some ice and hit his head. So at least we know he's telling the truth about having "personal issues." 

 

And now, how not to insulate your house: A man in Redland City, Australia, got the inspired idea to insulate his family home by filling the attic with… his homemade mixture of foam scraps and shredded cardboard.  He'd just about finished when he accidentally dropped his cigarette into it. He and his parents escaped the ensuing blaze, but the house was destroyed.  Fire investigators said that the fire was "not considered suspicious." They don't suspect there was any intelligence behind it.

 

 

It was supposed to be her perfect day, and that would've been the perfect end to her perfect day… but in Hyannis, Massachusetts, Marissa Ann Keene and her new husband Timothy spent their wedding night in separate jail cells.  He was charged with disorderly conduct, and the bride was charged with assault and battery with a deadly weapon.  Police say they got married at town hall, split a bottle of champagne, drove off for their honeymoon, and then the bride tried to run over the groom's former girlfriend and her son in a parking lot.   

 

IF THEY ONLY HAD A BRAIN!

======================

If you’re going to drive drunk, it’s best not to call attention to yourself by – say – driving off from a gas station with the pump handle still sticking out of your fuel nozzle. Cops stopped a 46-year-old man in SOUTH BEND, INDIANA and gave him a sobriety test.. Which he flunked. Cops returned the hose to the gas station, but had no estimate of damage to the pump.

 

In a related story, three guys from Phoenix – all in their 30s – devised an elaborate system to steal gasoline. They had a van with a false bottom and all the stuff necessary to open a gas station’s fuel tanks and siphon out gas.  They even had tanks capable of holding around 450 gallons. So, they pulled into a gas station and put their plan in motion.  What they didn’t count on was an alarm that told the attendant one of the underground tanks was losing gas. The attendant called cops. When they opened the back doors to the van, they found one of the guys passed out from the fumes. All three were arrested.

 

A man lost his hand after being dragged by a commuter train two weeks ago in Southern California. So it might surprise you to learn that a train has hit the same guy again. Police say the man claimed he fell from the platform onto the tracks at the Irvine, California station and was hit by a northbound train. The man was taken to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries and will receive a "check-up from the neck up."

  

I think we just found the poster child for “bad decisions” in LINCOLNTON, NORTH CAROLINA – Richard Peterson’s been sentenced to three days in jail for violating probation by leaving the state. What was so important that the 30-year-old simply had to leave the state? It was to appear on The Jerry Springer Show. A video clip shows him ducking punches from his girlfriend who’s a bit upset that he cheated on her with a stripper. While the two are fighting, the stripper was twirling around a stripper pole on the set. Peterson was on probation for marijuana possession and resisting an officer.

Denise Rutledge of FLAGLER BEACH, FLORIDA was really missing her imprisoned boyfriend, so she drove out to the jail for a conjugal visit. Guards had to inform the 45-year-old woman that the jail doesn’t offer conjugal visits. Since she was acting just a little strangely, one of the deputies followed her back to her car and gave her a field sobriety test.. which she failed. She was three times over the legal limit

 

Just before midnight, last Friday, a couple called police to report someone had stolen the safe out of their home in BLOOMFIELD, NEW JERSEY. Officers came to the house and found a busted door, some other traces of burglary …oh, and they also found the couple’s marijuana growing operation. The homeowner and his girlfriend were arrested. Still no word on the safe.

 

At least when the toaster goes bad, all you get is burnt toast Lori Corderro, of Medway, Mass. was lucky her cell phone caught a weak signal when her Toyota Yaris got stuck in a ditch after her GPS led her astray. She had traveled to Maine using a GPS to get directions but kept getting lost. She finally gave up, decided to head home and entered her home address in the system. That's when her GPS directed her to drive down a snowmobile path.

 

It was clearly the wrong room for a suspected graffiti vandal to target. Sheriff's officials say 22-year-old Joshua Vasquez was arrested after he tried to deface a glass door leading into a City of Commerce, CA meeting room where over 100 Los Angeles County sheriff's deputies and police officers were attending a training class. The officers could see the young man through the glass door, but he could not see them. Parker says Vasquez began to open the door to etch the inside when he suddenly saw dozens of officers running toward him. Parker says Vasquez turned and fled with at least 40 officers in pursuit. He tripped and fell a short distance away and was quickly taken into custody.
- Guess he didn't hear that "Pants on the Ground" song.
