...and now for the local news.
Anything cute, bizarre, weird, funny, being reported by your local anchor team today?
Here, they are interviewing a man that lost 80 pounds walking from the arch to New York City...
Yessterday, a "Big Foot" report, with a photo...hmmmm...okay...now I do believe big Foot, or MoMo exists...cuz any idiot who would don a gorrilia suit with 115 heat index to commit a fraud, would be dead in minutes ....maybe that will be the leading story tomorrow moring

Re: ...and now for the local news.
This wasn't local and it wasn't too funny, either, but I saw that rig chase in California on the news the other night. The one where they turned the corner and tipped it. I noticed the kid/guy on the corner ditch his bike and haul ass. After the rig stopped, he came back, got his bike, jumped on it and hauled ass again! I don't know why, but that was just so damn funny to me! I pointed it out to everyone and we were all bustin' out laughin'! After that, the newscasters pointed it out. Made it even funnier!

Re: ...and now for the local news.
There was a segment on the news last night about all the metal plates on the road in downtown Dallas. The gas companies are replacing the lines and people are bitchin' about having to drive over the metal plates. They'll eventually resurface the roads when they're done. What made me laugh and nod my head in agreement was what one guy had to say.......
"I have more things to worry about than a metal plate in the road."

Re: ...and now for the local news.
We finally got some rain here, 2-4 inches of it, the news showed a geyser that went 15 feet into the air, from a man hole cover. And of course they had to report on the man hole covers that went missing.

Re: ...and now for the local news.
Yesterday a man was taken into police custody for attempted suicide. He was wearing five layers of clothing in the mist of the record breaking temperatures (100+ degrees). He tried to explain that he did it to keep cool. Police were not amused. He plans to sue the police for everything. Apparently it is true, by wearing numerous layers of clothes on days hotter than average body temperatures (98.6), will keep your temperature at your body temperature. The air between the layers acts as an insulator, keeping your body from overheating. Police reported that they were unaware of this and claim no responsibility for the man's incarsaration...

This is a fact. When working in foundries, we would often wear "long john" winter undergarments to help disapate the heat. it not only maintains the normal body temp, but if you do sweat, it is dissapated better.

A father stabs a man to death after he was told the man had molested his 2 year old daughter. This man would walk in his backyard naked, exposing himself to anyone who cared to see.

Well, a guy is caught on tape, repeatedly kicking the window of a car to break into it...but because he didn't damage the car or actually make good with his attempts to break in to it...the police will not pursue the matter..even though that area has been a major target for a rash of auto break ins and theft.....

The local news story this morning that made me scream "WTF" outloud...
Godfrey, IL -- A ban on tattooing and body piercing has stirred a controversy after officials of the Godfrey Fire Protection District in Illinois decided on the ban Monday. It prohibits future firefighters from having body piercings or any visible tattoos. Firefighters from that district and others are speaking out against the ban.
******************************************
Oh really now....does anyone care whether the fireman risking life and limb to rescue your personal property or family and loved ones from a burning building has a tattoo or a pierced nipple??????

Re: ...and now for the local news.
Dateline Richmond, VA _Stephen Murmer, an art teacher was suspended from his position by school officials for his "art". Some of his paintings go for as much as $600, some less. He creates his floral & abstract "art" by "butt-printing". He applies paints and then plasters his naked posterior and genitals against a canvas. He did not do this in the company of any of his students, it's more of a sideline with him for extra income, but the school board got wind of it (so to speak).

the she got a package left on her doorstep...with the dogs head inside. the police have a suspect in custody..and if found guilty, he will be charged with commiting terrorist threats, among other charges.
why on God's green earth, would anybody do something like that? that is just sick and twisted.
the gilr said that she felt better knowing that there was an arrest made...felt like it was safe to walk around the neighbor hood again.

Re: ...and now for the local news.
Thats been going on for a long time, the ancient Egytian tombs all of them. Here in the states, there was a case of a man going to indian cliff dwellings & cutting out huge chunks of wall to get the paintings on the wall.I like to hunt indian artifacts, but just ground search. I don't do graves, even though I know the graves are loaded with goodies. I accidently uncovered indian graves twice, both times I've covered them both back up, never telling anyone where they were. Was tempting though, one grave had 1,000's & 1,000's of clamshell beads & jewelry. I don't do graves.

So far, it's a total of 124 bronze vases stolen.
They did catch one guy, he had 28 vases in his possesion, 8 intact, 20 he had already melted down.
He's such a weasel, and I'm sure he's weasel enough to cough up the name or names of his weasel buddies.

Re: ...and now for the local news.
Ha!!!Stupid tweaker!!!!
*************************************
SEDALIA, Mo. -- A woman was arrested after police said she dialed a wrong number and told a police detective that she wanted to buy drugs.
Detective Phil Stewart said he was sleeping last Thursday morning when he got a call on his cell phone from Tammy Banks, 41, of Sedalia.
The call was a wrong number, but Stewart was suspicious, so he said her friend wasn't around and then asked the caller what she needed.
"That's when she told me she wanted half a gram of meth," Stewart told KMBC's Marcus Moore.
Stewart, who has been a drug enforcement officer for six years and has executed about 250 warrants, agreed to help.
"I just said, 'Sure, I can do that for you,'" Stewart said.
Moore reported that Stewart's partner, Detective Cameron Egan, met the caller at a neighborhood park.
"Still driving over there, I was thinking, 'There's no way this is going to happen. It's too funny," Egan said.
Egan said he took $40 from Banks and gave her a fake bag of meth.
"She was relaxed, smiling," Egan said.
Banks was quickly arrested.
"I wish they were all that easy -- it would make our job a lot easier, that's for sure," Egan said.
Banks was charged with attempt to posses a controlled substance. She is being held on a $5,000 bond.

Re: ...and now for the local news.
Up north on a Indian res. two little boys went missing last Nov. FBI was called in, at first they suspect a possible kidnapping, anyway, they have been searching this whole time around the kids home, scent dogs pick up their scent and led to searchers to the boys bodies. It looks like the little boys, I believe ages 4 and 7 wondered off drowned in the near by lake. Good news is the parents now know what happened to their little boys.
