News Funnies...

Some news headlines that cracked me up today...


FRENCH COMMUTERS RAN HEAD-ON INTO A LOCAL POLITICAL STAND-OFF TUESDAY AFTER FEUDING TOWNS REDIRECTED ROAD MARKINGS TO LEAVE TWO BUSY ONE-WAY STREETS FACING OFF AGAINST EACH OTHER.

The mayor of one town got peeved at all the traffic coming into his town so made his town's portion of a busy highway a one-way street, sending traffic into the next town.  When the mayor of the other town realized what was happening he did the same thing, sending traffic back to the other town.  National police had to be called in to solve the gridlock.

It's like something out of the Simpsons - Springfield versus Shelbyville!



ZAMBIA PRESIDENT RUPIAH BANDA HAS ORDERED SCORES OF MONKEYS REMOVED FROM THE GROUNDS OF HIS OFFICIAL RESIDENCE, AFTER ONE URINATED ON HIS HEAD DURING A PRESS CONFERENCE.

So far, 61 of the 200 monkeys that live on the State House grounds have been relocated to outside parkland.  One monkey peed on Banda while he criticized the opposition leader during a press conference.

I guess the monkey wears different political stripes!
 


CONNECTICUT MAN PUTS PARENTS FOR SALE ON CRAIGSLIST

51-year-old Michael Amatrudo posted an ad that read, "Perfectly good parents- $155 OBO. Got lots of use out of these guys over the past 50 years but it's time to move on. Excellent overall condition. Still plenty of life left in them...."  It was all a joke.  He just thought it would be funny given all the other strange things you can find on Craigslist.  He got calls from all over the U.S.  Most knew the ad was a hoax though a few were interested in a new Mom and Dad.  As for Armatudo's parents - they weren't the least bit surprised.

"I wasn't shocked. All my kids have had a sense of humor. We loved it!" said Arlene Amatrudo.
