A Man's Bad Day: Stuck in Mud, Rescued by Copter, Then Arrested.

Posted by Alex in Crime & Law on January 3, 2006 at 5:37 pm

What did this man do to get rescued by helicopter? Here’s the story:

Thomas J. Bruno allegedly agreed to pay a male prostitute to have sex with him near a wastewater treatment plant off Wolfe Neck Road. But the two, who had met in a bar earlier that night, got into an argument and the sex act never took place, he told police.

Bruno got lost while trying to leave the area, so he called 911 with his cell phone about 4 a.m. … At the time he lost contact, he reportedly had lost his shoes in mud.

When troopers found him nearly four hours later, he was stuck in mud up to his waist. Police used night-vision goggles to locate his vehicle, then followed his footprints about two miles to where he was stuck.

Jared Six's Ink Blot Art.

Posted by Alex in Arts & Crafts on January 3, 2006 at 2:02 am

Jared Six’s Ink Blot Art will reveal your inner silliness.

This inkblot looks like a female Dinosaur who blames her parents for her problems. (See how she points an accusing finger at each parent on either side of her?) The lady dinosaur is also “incubating” another little dinosaur (see her tum), and this baby will also grow up to blame her parents, and her grandparents, for all her troubles. (If you look closely you can see that the baby is already in “the finger-pointing business”.)

Bye Bye Rudolph?

Posted by Alex in Pictures, Travel & Places on January 3, 2006 at 1:01 am

Spotted in San Francisco by Neatorama reader Strange de Jim:

Magnet Health Services in San Francisco’s Castro district had an all-you-can-eat reindeer barbeque the day after Christmas. Rudolph’s nose tasted just like chicken, and I still have a warm comfy glow in my tummy.

(Thanks Strange!)

Update 1/2/06 – Strange de Jim said:

After the all-you-can-eat reindeer barbeque, what was left for Magnet Health Service in San Francisco’s Castro? It’s elf-help therapy.
