Virtual Shooting, Real Blood
John Lockwood has done it. Not content with the virtual gore that video games provide to internet users, John has taken it a step further. He already has hooked up guns to the internet to let people sitting at their home computers shoot targets on his ranch in Texas.
Not satisfied with that, he now is setting up remote live game hunts. The idea is, virtual hunters pay him a sh*tload of money to allow them to control a camera and rifle pointed at a game feeder. When Bambi or Thumper comes along, click the mouse and SPLAT there goes the animal. For real. If the virtual hunter actually KILLS an animal like, say, a buck deer, rather than remotely wounding it, s/he will have to pony up some additional dollars.
John says "the technology for hunters keeps evolving, from bowhunting to high-powered rifles. This is just another step forward, another tactical advantage."
The president of the NY Bowhunters Association thinks a little differently: "Sitting remotely and pushing a button to kill another animal is nothing but perverse 21st-century slaughter."
Hmmm.

Well this is icky.
There's a bridge in Palembang, Indonesia, which is on the verge of collapsing and vehicles larger than one ton are no longer allowed to drive on it. Big whoop, eh? Here's the poop: the reason it's going to collapse is because for the past 40 some odd years, and the reason it is now considered to be a tourist attraction, is because people seem to enjoy peeing on one of its main support piers! They've peed so much that the support is giving away and now the bridge is slanting off at a terrible angle!
Azmi Lakoni, big wig with the highway and bridge department confirms: "it is a popular spot for locals to relieve themselves."
Oh ick!

Don't Try This at Home
24 year old former Kent, WA, resident and mensa candidate Philip Quinn decided to put his lava lamp on the stove to heat up.
It got really hot SIZZLE. And then it exploded. BOOM! Glass shard ZZZZZZZZZZIP! right into his heart. Phil staggered BUMP BUMP BUMP into his bedroom. And died CROAK THUMP.
The saddest part is, drugs and alcohol are NOT suspected as being involved in this act of fatal stupidity.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
For the Person Who Has Everything
Here's a coolio present you can buy for that special someone - one that will make him or her think of you every single month. Don't settle for the fruit of the month, or pie of the month, or flower of the month clubs: go for the Peanut Butter and Jelly of the Month Club!
Yes, for a mere $250 per year you can have one jar of peanut butter and one jar of jelly delivered to the door of your intestinally deprived friend. This includes not just run of the mill crunchy peanut butter and grape jelly. No! They even supply hot and spicy peanut butter and kudzu jelly.
I'm sure you're interested, so here's the website: www.lovepbj.com
Enjoy!

Pig pleasuring OK
Reality TV in England has hit a new low. Folks who tuned in to The Farm recently had the dubious honor of watching David Beckham's ex, Rebecca Loos, stimulate a pig for 10 minutes on camera in an attempt to fill a flask with semen.
Viewers were miffed, calling in with complaints ranging from shock at apparent bestiality to condemnation of the scenes as 'morbid and sordid'.
Channel 5 was taken to court for breaching decency standards, and have come out victorious. Apparently, this kind of activity is perfectly normal on a pig farm and happens all the time.
And, most importantly, the ruling stated :"We don't believe that the scene was degrading or harmful to the boar."
Now I know why that guy in yesterday's missive wants to go live in a pigsty for 3 weeks....

Mystery Woman Saves Child's Life
Shakirah Harley, 13 months old, was trapped in an overturned car Sunday morning in a canal down in Florida. An unknown woman stopped to help the family get out of the vehicle, and performed CPR on Shakirah. After making sure Shakirah was okay, and that the police had everything under control, said woman disappeared, not wanting or needing publicity for doing a really great thing.
Cool.
