Jesus Christ gets run over!
Jesus Christ was hit by a car last week in Massachusetts when a woman driver failed to yield the right-of-way to a pedestrian at a crosswalk.
When police checked the man´s ID, they discovered that the man´s legal name was in fact Lord Jesus Christ.
Jesus miraculously escaped serious harm, receiving only minor injuries to his face, which he was treated for at a local hospital.

A Step Forward for Women´s Rights in Saudi Arabia?
Saudi Arabia: In a first seen as a significant step for the rights of women, King Abdallah and his son have posed for a photograph with a group of 40 Muslim women. In a society where gender segregation extends to separate entrances into the majority of buildings, the photo is seen as a symbolic message that men and women can mix. Since Abdallah became king in 2005 gender segregation has been slowly been relaxed.

Disney World Has Their Grammar Corrected by a Fourth Grader
Florida: Fourth-grader Hannah Estes has written to Disney World to point out their poor grammar after watching the countdown for the Primeval Whirl ride go 3 seconds, 2 seconds, 1 seconds.
"I learned in Ms. Bennett´s class that a singular number can´t be with a plural word, and so that´s what it was, and it wasn´t right," said Hannah.

Disney officials who received the letter, complete with photographic evidence captured on Hannah´s "little pink princess camera", acknowledged there was a grammatical problem and promised to rectify the situation.

Fair play to ya Biggins for posting those.

I sometimes read lots of other sites with interesting stories but I never thought of posting them on boards all the time to amuse people.

Keep up the good work and what not.

Snoopy Attempts to Break Relative Out of Wrong Prison

In the Isle of Wight, UK, a man dressed as the Peanuts character Snoopy and an accomplice have been detained after they attempted to break into a prison to free a relative.

Officials were concerned as the pair appeared to have a gun as they attempted to break down a prison door and threw concrete at prison officials´ cars. The gun turned out to be a water pistol, and their relative turned out to be at a different prison.

The two men are being held under the Mental Health Act. A prison source said "It’s not every day you see a giant cartoon dog go on the rampage," adding: "This has got to rank as one of the worst attempted jail breaks ever."

Airline Passenger Attempts to Enter Cockpit, Claims to Be an Alien Who Needs to Fly the Plane

A flight between Montana and Salt Lake City has made an unscheduled stop at Idaho Falls after a passenger claimed to be an alien and attempted to enter the cockpit to take over the aircraft, saying that he ´needed to fly the plane´.
The crew were able to restrain the man with the aid of a number of passengers. The Skywest Airlines Canadair CRJ-200 diverted a short time later to offload the passenger to waiting police. The flight resumed within 40 minutes.

Police arrested the man and charges have been laid. According to tests carried out by authorities he didn´t have alcohol or drugs in his system at the time of the incident.
