.... Posted July 16, 2003 Share Posted July 16, 2003 ? Aboard a Detroit-to-Boston Northwest Airlines flight, two passengers were handcuffed after they were spotted by air marshals "talking loudly to themselves" and "acting very strangely." Later, it was identified as praying. ? In Wisconsin Rapids, Wis., a man who got a 7-inch-long french fry at a Culver's restaurant instantly wrapped it, ran home and posted it on eBay, unofficially listed as the world's longest french fry. Within minutes, the bidding had reached $23. /edit as was posted here...went for $202!!!! ? On a lake in St. Paul, Minn., on July 4, rescue officials had problems reaching an injured man who had fallen in the water and begun to drown after other boats wouldn't move because they didn't want to lose their spot for the fireworks show. ? In Houston, a nightclub stripper who performs lap dances for men at $25 apiece was asked by a reporter what she thinks about while performing -- a fantasy? pornography? -- and she said she only thinks about how many more lap dances she has to perform to pay for her cats' veterinary bills. ? At a court hearing in Statesville, N.C., a 64-year-old store owner appeared on assault charges after he spanked a 9-year-old who had shown up in his store and taught his store's pet parrot to say the f-word. ? In Fairfax, Va., a high school shop class that, as an assignment, spent two years building a 6,500-square-foot home that had three dens, five fireplaces and seven bathrooms finally finished and hoped also to get their asking price -- $1.4 million. ? At a hospital in Birmingham, Ala., surgeons using an electric instrument to cauterize a blood vessel on a woman's face apologized after it got too close to an oxygen mask and her face caught on fire. ? In Duluth, Minn., after getting up to three telemarketing calls a day for weeks from an auto-glass business, a homeowner got revenge by calling them back every five minutes for two straight days, to say he still was not interested. ? Several 4-H camp counselors in Roanoke, Va., were dismissed after being accused of arranging fights between children, then charging admission and taking bets on which one would win. ? In Los Angeles, after a scene in the blockbuster film, "Finding Nemo," claimed that flushing pet fish down the toilet will lead them to the ocean, sanitation officials reported "a major increase" of fish in the sewage system as well as up to 70 calls to RotoRooter centers asking for help in getting residents' toilet lines unclogged. ? A drunken man in Lakeland, Fla., who fell asleep in his car in his girlfriend's driveway was awakened and asked to move it. Then, he also was charged with drunken driving. When trying to back up, he accidentally rammed her car and pushed it through a wall of her house. ? In Ann Arbor, Mich., after a homeowner's septic system failed and had not been repaired for two years, health officials were called in to remove 110 five-gallon pails of human waste the family had neatly lined up out in the back yard. ? While on a safari in Africa and posing for pictures in front of two African elephants that were eating leaves from a tree, President Bush and wife Laura suddenly became rather embarrassed -- when, as the White House later put it, one of the elephants "suddenly developed an altogether different urge" and "made a serious reproductive attempt." Finally our own monthly favorite: ? Along Interstate 35E near St. Paul, Minn., a motorist who had set the cruise control on her minivan and was baffled why it was building up speed anyway, looked down to see it was the raccoon that had sneaked into her vehicle and was stepping on the accelerator.
