I am a lover of weird. I like humans because they are entertaining. I believe stupidity should be painful. I think the color pink needs to be banished from existance. I like to play with guns, bows, and knives.

Wife Used Dog Shock Collar To Keep Porn Addicted Husband in Bed

A German woman admitted to keeping her husband in bed at night by locking a dog shock collar around his neck.

Tuesday on a popular daytime women’s TV show in Germany women discussed the extremes that they have gone to to keep their spouses from spending all of their time looking at porn on the Internet. One lady who chose to wear a mask so not to be identified told of how she had to padlock a dog’s shock collar around the neck of her husband to keep him from getting up.

He used to sneak down stairs and get on the computer for hours she said. It was effecting his performance at his job. He would fall asleep at work. “They even called me at home to see if I would take him to the doctor for his sleep disorder not knowing that he had been up all night masturbating to porn”.

The woman described how she kept the controls for the collar on her night stand and would set the range for it to go off at 3 meters. The husband agreed to wear the collar at first but she caught him sneaking it off one night. Thats when she started locking it to his neck.

The couple was willing to do anything to save their 12 years of marriage.

Kindergartner Charged With Felony Tantrum

On March 28, Desre'e Watson, a 6-year-old kindergarten student at Avon Elementary School, had a bad morning. She cried. She wailed. She kicked. She scratched. She hit a teacher. That's what the police say, anyway.

The police? That's right. To subdue the unruly kindergartner, school officials phoned Avon Park's police department ("committed to enhancing the 'Quality of Life' of the community"). When the cops arrived, young Desre'e attempted to resist arrest by crawling under a table. But Avon Park's finest pulled her out, cuffed her, put her in a police cruiser, drove her to the county jail, and charged this 50-pound menace with a felony and two misdemeanors. The police report is below.



"When there is an outburst of violence," Police Chief Frank Mercurio told a local news station, "we have a duty to protect and make that school a safe environment for the students, staff and faculty. That's why, at this point, the person was arrested regardless what the age."

Man With Sword Confronts Burglars, Gets Shot

Man With Sword Confronts Burglars, Gets Shot
Three Men Enter Home Wearing Ski Masks, Dark Clothing


POSTED: 12:19 pm MDT October 3, 2005
UPDATED: 6:50 pm MDT October 3, 2005


LONE TREE, Colo. -- A 20-year-old man in Lone Tree is recovering from his injuries after he confronted three burglars in his home with a samurai sword and was shot in the leg.

The man is in stable condition at a local hospital. Police have not released his identity, 7NEWS reported.

The Douglas County Sheriff's Department said a woman called 911 just after 12:30 a.m. Monday, saying that her boyfriend was jolted awake by a noise inside the home. The woman said when her boyfriend went to investigate the noise, he saw three masked men rifling through the house, grabbing money and other valuables.

When the masked men fled the house through a side door in the garage, the victim then grabbed a sword and went out the front door to confront them, 7NEWS reported. That is when one of the burglars turned around and fired a single shot at the victim, authorities said.

Neighbors said they heard a loud noise that sounded like fireworks and then they saw the burglars flee in a dark sedan.

"I saw two guys getting into a dark vehicle, I believe it was black, and they were heading north on Mercury Drive with no lights on," said a neighbor, who wanted to be identified only as Robin.

Police are looking for three men, described as a black man, a Hispanic man, and a white man.

The Hispanic suspect is said to be a husky or overweight man about 5 feet 6 inches tall, 150 pounds, with brown hair and dark black eyebrows. The black suspect was described as thin man with a light complexion who was about 5 feet 11 inches tall and between 130 to 140 pounds. The white suspect was said to be muscular, about 6 feet tall, and 150 to 160 pounds.

They were wearing ski masks and dark clothing from head to toe, including black gloves and black windbreaker pullovers, deputies said.

Investigators would not say how much money was taken or what valuables are missing. The home intrusion occurred in the 13000 block of Mercury Drive, near Park Meadows Mall.

Others who were in the home at the time were not hurt. The victim rents the home with three other men.

Investigators believe that the victim did not know the burglars and the crime was random.

Neighbors are a bit alarmed that burglars could be so brazen.

"It's scary. Maybe they were trying to get into my house and my dogs scared them off. I don't know," said Robin.

Deputies believe that the intruders entered the home through a side door connected to the garage.

Anyone with information regarding this incident is asked to call the Douglas County Sheriff's Office tip line at (303) 660-7579.

Raccoon back on the menu at fundraiser

Raccoon back on the menu at fundraiser
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

HIBERNIA, Ind. -- HIBERNIA, Ind. (AP) After a four-year absence, raccoon is back on the menu for the Hibernia Community Building's annual fundraiser. LaVeran Lorenz, 86, has agreed to resume cooking duties for the March 24 event - with a little help with the cleaning. "It's not like cleaning a chicken, I'll tell you that," said Dina Woods, one of Lorenz's neighbors who agreed to learn how to clean raccoons for cooking.

Allus Franklin and other hunters in the town on Hibernia Road off Indiana 62 about 20 miles north of Louisville, Ky., have bagged 103 raccoons for the event. "When they told us, we'd already caught 40," he said.

"It's the biggest day in Hibernia, I think," Woods said.

But Lorenz, who had handled much of the raccoon cooking duty for every fundraiser since the early 1950s, begged off after the 2002 event. The 21 members of the Owen Township Homemakers since have prepared chili and ham and beans for fundraisers, but people have pleaded with the cook to bring raccoon back to the table.

Helen Sue Sneed, a daughter of Lorenz's, said she wasn't surprised her mother agreed.

"It's what keeps her going," Sneed said. "She enjoys being around people. That's a big part of it."

Turkey will also be served for those who don't have a taste for the wild meat, along with dressing and gravy, parsley potatoes, sweet potatoes, green beans and rolls.

Franklin said raccoon meat's flavor is similar to pork.

"You'd be surprised," he said. "People like them."

Swiss accidentally invade Liechtenstein

Swiss accidentally invade Liechtenstein

Fri Mar 2, 8:51 AM ET

ZURICH, Switzerland - What began as a routine training exercise almost ended in an embarrassing diplomatic incident after a company of Swiss soldiers got lost at night and marched into neighboring Liechtenstein.

According to Swiss daily Blick, the 170 infantry soldiers wandered just over a mile across an unmarked border into the tiny principality early Thursday before realizing their mistake and turning back.

A spokesman for the Swiss army confirmed the story but said that there were unlikely to be any serious repercussions for the mistaken invasion.

"We've spoken to the authorities in Liechtenstein and it's not a problem," Daniel Reist told The Associated Press.

Officials in Liechtenstein also played down the incident.

Interior ministry spokesman Markus Amman said nobody in Liechtenstein had even noticed the soldiers, who were carrying assault rifles but no ammunition. "It's not like they stormed over here with attack helicopters or something," he said.

Liechtenstein, which has about 34,000 inhabitants and is slightly smaller than Washington DC, doesn't have an army
