Take a respite from arguing about politics policy. Let's talk about something we can all agree upon: The beautiful human being that is Vice President Dick Cheney.

Demolition 101
Stinson Bailey from Benton, Ark, wanted to demolish his building and received city permission to do so. Looking at the task, he decided that a much more efficient means of demolition would be to use fire in lieu of the traditional sledgehammers and such.
After all, he'd been whacking away at the job for two days and still the building stood! So Stinson set the building aflame, totally forgetting that fires of this sort need to be...what's the word....contained.
A district fire chief noticed the burning, and let Stinson know it was a bad idea and that he was calling a fire truck to put out the fire. According to the fire marshal, "The people at the scene told him that he shouldn't be concerned about the situation and he should come back later."
He followed their recommendations and upon return, found three additional houses ablaze.
Stinson was charged with reckless burning and disorderly conduct. In his defense, Stinson states: " I would've been all right if the wind hadn't changed."

So waaaaay back in 1994, a guy only identified as John Doe was having a fun bedtime romp with his then-girlfriend. Apparently, she attempted a gymnastics move, landed 'awkwardly' on him and...uh...broke his thingy.
In spite of immediate emergency surgery and rounds of medication and counseling, John is still having troubles. You know. Troubles. He decided therefore, to sue her.
His case has already been thrown out by Salem District Court and Essex Superior Court, but John is determined, and has filed yet again in the Massachusetts Supreme Court. He doesn’t care if it takes a CENTURY, though. He’s going to keep on fighting for truth and justice…no matter what.
Like mom always said, it's all fun and games until somebody gets hurt.

Kills Bugs Dead
Walter Mueller, a 36 year old genius from Schleswig-Holstein Germany, doesn't like bugs in his home. So the other day he closed up all the windows to his apartment and began spraying extra strong insect-spray.
He sprayed and sprayed. Spray spray spray.
Satisfied that he was now bug-free, Walt sat down at his computer to surf the web for a bit. Upon turning the computer on, a spark ignited the aerosol spray and KA-BOOM went the windows! The explosion blasted through his home and word is that debris flew up to 100 meters away!
Mueller, with the luck of the stupid, escaped pretty much unscathed. His neighbors' apartments were also damaged, and the streets were closed for hours due to the mess.

Look Out William Shatner
Much like Tupac Shakur, Pope John Paul II is pumping out music hits after his ultimate demise. Someone out there decided that it would be wise to put the pope's poetry to a disco beat and kick it out to the common populace.
Right now, his " Roman Triptych" is sitting firmly at number 3 in the Polish charts. At least 7 other pontiffy songs are in the top 40.
The Roman Catholic Church is not thrilled, and has issued a 'warning' that some of the albums that have John Paul on the cover are...using his popularity to make sales.
SAY IT ISN'T SO!
