How random is this?!?

A German student "mooned" a group of Hell's Angels and hurled a puppy at them before escaping on a stolen bulldozer, police have said.

    No, but exactly how is a bemused Hells Angel supposed to react to a mooning puppy-thrower? :?

    As soon as I saw the title of this thread, I immediately thought of this story.

    "What motivated him to throw a puppy at the Hell's Angels is currently unclear" has to be one of the greatest police statements ever.

    The Football365 website's mediawatch page is always a good source for these sort of things. Here's another one:
    'A teenager collapsed during his marriage to a cow he had earlier been caught having sex with after claiming it had flirted with him. Unemployed Ngurah Alit, 18, was seen in a Bali paddy field standing naked behind the animal. He claimed he believed the cow was a young and beautiful woman, and it had seduced him with flattering compliments. He was then forced to marry the cow to cleanse the coastal village of Yeh Embang of the bestiality.

    'But during the ritual Alit passed out as locals and police - drafted in to keep journalists at bay - looked on and his mother began screaming, according to Detik.com. One villager said: 'Poor kid. He's actually a quiet kid.' Alit quickly then became a widower when his new bride was drowned in the sea as part of the Pecaruan ritual. Alit was only symbolically drowned and bathed on the beach. Chief Ida Bagus Legawa declared that the village had then been 'cleansed' from the 'defilement from the incident'

    Maybe it was his way of apologising for the behaviour of his country during the war! :?

    It depends on how fat the Hell's Angel is and how flat his bike is. :lol:
    To err is human, but to make a real balls up takes a super computer.

    I know I shouldn't laugh. But...

    "A British woman who went to a Thai nature resort to conquer her fear of monkeys has been savaged by a pack of macaques."

    Today is an odd day for news.

    Macaques are well known for their ability to smell fear.

    Here's another one:

    Giant penis protest hits St. Petersburg

    In a piece of cutting political commentary, a group of artists have protested about heightened security in the Russian city of St. Petersburg by drawing a giant 220ft-long penis on a drawbridge.
    Measuring 65 metres (220 ft) long and 27 metres across, the big penis rises and glistens in the light whenever the bridge is raised to let ships pass beneath.
    'We have painted a giant phallus to show what the FSB and Interior Ministry are doing in terms of security for the (International Economic) forum,' Voina said in a statement. The FSB is Russia's main internal security agency, the successor to the KGB - and when the bridge is raised, the now-erect penis stands right beside its local headquarters.

    I love these stories, they basically fall into the category of 'there are more questions than answers'

    My favourite headline of all time was in the Galloway News when I lived in that neck of the woods (it was during the 1980s, except in Galloway, where it was the 1880s)
    "Man almost knocked off barstool in fight"
    It was the "almost" that raised it to the level of art.
