Too Silly NOT To Be True!

Well there you are. I'm glad you survived the last minute shopping, getting stuffed with turkey and the Boxing Day Sale Madness. Sit yourself down, relax and enjoy a well earned mug of Arabica Joy Juice and a virtual mince tart, eh! Thought I'd get off the Christmas subject today with a couple little silly things that happened recently...though not to me, I might add.

(1) Police in Geraldton, Australia, reported that they had captured a thief they were chasing in the dark through a neighbourhood's backyards. As the thief came to a fence and leaped over it, he happened to land on a family's trampoline and was propelled backward, practically into cops' laps. Oops!

(2) Guy Black, 76, was charged in Turbotville, Pa., with threatening housemate Ronald Tanner with a chainsaw. Tanner, defending himself with the only "weapon" within reach -- an umbrella -- managed to pin Black with it as the chainsaw jammed. 

Most people who bring an umbrella to a chainsaw fight would be less successful, I'd say! But faced with some madman with a chainsaw, an umbrella would be better than nothing!

See ya, eh!
