Nev. Man Castrates Himself to Lower Libido

 

Fri Jan 21,10:22 AM ET Strange News - AP

 

RENO, Nev. - A 50-year-old Reno man who was hospitalized after he castrated himself told police he learned of the procedure on the Internet and did so to lower his libido. The man, whose name was not released, called 911 at about 1:30 a.m. Monday and asked for help because he could not stop the bleeding from a self-castration operation, police said.

 

Reno police and medics responded to the man's home and he was taken by ambulance to the hospital.

Washoe Medical Center officials cited privacy issues on why they could not release any information on the man, including his condition. But police said hospital officials confirmed Wednesday the man successfully castrated himself.

 

"The man obviously needs some sort of counseling," Reno police Lt. Ron Donnelly told the Reno Gazette-Journal.

Meter officer scalded by coffee in 'parking rage' incident

 

Associated Press

 

January 21, 2005 PARKRAGE0122

 

BOSTON -- A Boston parking meter attendant is recovering from bad burns after a man angry over a 55-dollar ticket allegedly threw hot coffee at her.

 

Christi Noviello says she saw a Hummer parked in a loading zone and a woman in the passenger seat. Noviello tells the Boston Herald she gave the woman a chance to move the vehicle before writing the ticket. But when the driver came out of a Starbucks, Noviello says he became enraged. She says the man -- identified as Francois Youhanna -- wouldn't accept the ticket and flung his cup of coffee in her face.

 

Youhanna claims he accidentally spilled the coffee on the meter maid after slipping on some ice. He was released on personal recognizance after pleading innocent yesterday to a charge of assault and battery with a deadly weapon -- the hot coffee.

 

 

Another bizarre story happened in Boston :rolleyes:

Texas Billboards Feature Osama, Arafat

 

Fri Jan 21, 1:49 PM ET Strange News - AP

 

FORT WORTH, Texas - A Texas radio station has sparked some controversy by erecting not-so-flattering billboards featuring al Qaida head Osama bin Laden (news - web sites), former Iraqi President Saddam Hussein (news - web sites) and late Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat (news - web sites).

 

The signs say "Two down, one to go," an apparent reference to Arafat's death and Saddam's toppling by a U.S.-led invasion last year. There are also signs that have bin Laden alone that say "Some people want you dead." There are about 20 signs around the Dallas-Fort Worth area.

 

"We wanted to get people's attention," said Lon Bason, general manager of KLIF-AM talk radio station. "We knew this would strike a chord."

 

On that score, he's apparently succeeded. The station has received hundreds of e-mails and phone calls commenting on the signs. Bason says the comments are split between positive and negative.

 

One billboard along heavily traveled Lyndon B. Johnson Freeway in North Dallas was moved after a nearby funeral home objected, Bason said.

 

One of the billboards was erected above the Texas Hereford Association's building. The manager of the cattle association, Jack Chastain, was not amused.

 

"I'm a strong Republican and a strong Bush supporter," he said. "But I'd like to believe we're above that. I'd like to think we have more class. That looks to me like it's low-class."

 

Bason was unrepentant.

 

"We knew some people would be offended by them. But they prefer to ignore the facts of the world we live in these days," he said.

 

 

Very bizarre one indeed :rolleyes:

 

 

Go figure:.................

Newspaper Sacks Reporter Over Fake Yahoo Baby

 

 

BUCHAREST, Romania (Reuters) - A Romanian tabloid said on Monday it had fired a reporter for making up a story about a couple who named their son Yahoo as a sign of gratitude for meeting over the Internet.

 

Bucharest daily Libertatea published a story this month saying two Romanians had named their baby for the popular Web site and printed a picture of his birth certificate. The news was published internationally, including by Reuters.

 

"It was the reporter's child's birth certificate, which he modified," said Simona Ionescu, Libertatea's deputy editor-in-chief. "We fired him."

 

She said Ion Garnod, who had worked for the paper for several years, had admitted inventing the story to look good.

 

"If it were real, it would have been a good story indeed," Ionescu said.

 

Garnod was not available for comment.

 

 

Oddly Enough huh :confused:

Swedish clean teeth campaigners to host Valentine's Day smoochathon

 

Mon Jan 24, 4:23 PM ET Health - AFP

 

STOCKHOLM (AFP) - Sweden's state-run pharmacy chain said it would host an attempt to break the world record for the longest kiss as part of a campaign to improve dental hygiene.

 

US couple Louisa Almedovar and Rich Langley have held the record for the longest smooch -- 30 hours, 59 minutes and 27 seconds -- since December 5, 2001.

 

The Swedish kissathon will take place on Valentine's Day (news - web sites), February 14, and will be broadcast live on the website of Apotheket, company spokesman Andreas Rosenlund told AFP.

 

The selected couple will undergo rigorous training ahead of D-day, including following a healthy diet, brushing their teeth under medical surveillance and learning to use different types of dental floss.

 

Apoteket points out that a peck on the cheek demands the use of 12 facial muscles while a French kiss sets 34 different facial muscles in action.

 

During an open-mouthed kiss, two individuals on average exchange 40,000 parasites, 250 different types of bacteria, along with varying amounts of salt, fat, protein and other organic substances, according to Apoteket.

 

Since a kissing couple also burns about four calories per minute, the Swedish pair should burn at least 7,436 calories if they want to break the world record.

 

 

Very bizarre story huh :rolleyes:
