Recently in Florida, USA, a 47 year old man by the name of Carlos Gutierrez was arrested after making false 911 to police because the casino's slot machines had 'stolen his money'.

He not only called 911 from the casino he was in, but also again from outside the casino and hotel.

While elsewhere in Florida around the same time, a Jacksonville man called 911 to complain that a Subway restaurant forgot to put the sauce on his spicy Italian sandwich!

MOWED DOWN!!!

July 29th 2008 12:55
Lawnmowers can be annoying at the best of times - especially if you're having a lie in on a Sunday morning and the neighbour decides that 6am is an appropriate time to start cutting the grass, but one man from Milwaukee recently discovered that an annoying lawnmower can get you into much more trouble - particulary if you also happen to be armed with a sawn-off shotgun!

Having spent the morning drinking, (as we all do!) he decided at some point to attempt to mow the lawn.

Having been asked the other day whether we, as Australians, live in actual houses? (As opposed to what I don't know - tents perhaps???) I've decided to list some of the most common questions asked by visitors to Australia as were pointed out recently by one of our tourism websites.


Q: Does it ever get windy in Australia? I've never seen it rain on TV. How do your plants grow? (UK)

You probably thought george W. Bush was the only US president to make faux pas such as "You're free. And freedom is beautiful. And, you know, it'll take time to restore chaos and order—order out of chaos. But we will."

And of course my personal favourite,"Too many good docs are getting out of the business. Too many OB/GYN's aren't able to practice their love with women all across the country."

black cat on a pole
Over in Georgia, a man by the name of Carl Miles once possessed a 'talking' cat.

He would take his cat out to street corners where the cat would say "I Love You" and "I Want My Mamma". Both he and the cat would then collect money from passers-by.

OK, so I'm really running out of time in our sorting and packing to move overseas, so I'll leave you with a simple bit of George W. Bush humour (that's 'humor' for you Americans) that I know you all love so much.

MOBILE, Ala. (AP) - There's no use crying over spilled milk, but spilled soda has been a nightmare for one man. Eric Burns Overstreet was put in jail in September after entering the Mystik Stop & Shop, paying for a fountain drink and spilling three cups of it onto the floor.
