Listen to this 911 call: Marijuana dealers get high and call police on themselves

True. It can depend on how much 'RAM' they have, I guess.

Oh, the jokes that can be made ab out that kind of thing... unfortunately they'd mostly be AUP-unfriendly. Or perhaps that's a good thing...

Stalin rejected the signing of a treaty with Mao after having Mao's excrement examined by a special "back-room" department.

By the sound of things, it was a top secret and rather smelly experiment.

This guy's got a good career ahead of him, I think.

Edit: Not a news piece, but just too good to pass up. I'll let the pic do the talking.

Trying to work out what you'd find funny in that story. I was thinking that maybe you'd judged her character based on extremely limited knowledge of her, but you wouldn't do that. Help me find the hilarity.

 

[Barra333]

I think the amusing part is that the candidate rose to the public eye by being a contestant on a redneck version of The Bachelor
