A man, decidedly dirty and hot, utilized a public fountian to take a nice cool bath - naked of course.
A crowd of tourists admiring the historic 17th century Baroque fountain were surprised to see a man strip and wade into the fountain in the middle of the day. He now faces criminal charges.
The fountain is at the base of Rome’s Spanish Steps and seems to be a draw for troublemakers. Two weeks prior to the naked swimmer, another man was arrested for driving his car down the steps.
I gotta get out more…one more reason to visit Europe. sheesh!

A mother in Tennessee, fed up with her daughters antics and bad behavior, has forced her to stand on a street corner holding a sign that states, “I don’t obey my parents, I’m a liar. I steal from my mom. I have a bad attitude.” This all stemmed from an incident from Sunday morning.
Tashara said having to wear her offenses was eye-opening.
“It might even work,” she said. “I’m gonna start (behaving better) because I don’t want to be standing out here with everybody looking at me like I’m crazy with this sign.”
Sure this might work…as long as her sign matches her shoes!

In Tokyo, a new nursing home for elderly dogs is available to those who cannot spend the time needed for round the clock care of their ailing, elderly pups.
Owners will pay the equivelent of $800 a month to have veterinarians and residents administer care and medical attention. With the increase in better health care and balanced diets for pets, the rate of elderly dogs has increased dramatically.
Hey, it’s not fair! I want to be pampered and have a pretty coat too!

Always remember to loan an old man money if he asks- especially if it’s Richard Johnson of Davenport Iowa!
Apparantly, Mr. Johnson asked his 81 year old neighbor for a loan so he could go and gamble and she refused - since she had already loaned him some money previously. He didn’t take kindly to that response and promptly beat her with a hammer!
The maintenance supervisor, Fuller, heard the commotion and calmed down the elderly man and called the police. Fuller said that as they waited for help, Johnson told him: “I’m old. What are they going to do, lock me up?”
The neighbor was treated for injuries and released.
I don’t know about you, but if an old man from a mental home asks me for money, I am going to run!

This rocks! A Spanish hotel chain is running a competition where stressed execs can smash hotel rooms to let off some steam - and act like a rock star!
The hotel is allowing 30 people to be armed with a mallet and a hard hat and can destroy any part of the 146 room building as it is being prepped for refurbishment. The destruction shall commence on July 3rd.
I think ALL hotels going under re-modeling should do this!

In Delcambre Louisiana, the mayor Carol Broussard has decided it’s not ok to wear saggy, baggy pants. The idea behind this is that when worn, more often than not, people can see your underwear or other “parts” that is considered a violation of un-dress code.
Broussard’s advice for people who like their pants to hang low: “Just wear it properly. Cover your vital parts. I mean, if you expose your private parts, you’ll get a fine. If you walk up and your pants drop, you get a fine. They’re better off taking the pants off and just wearing a dress.”
The fine is currently listed at $500.
It should be more, I mean after all, what if the boxers that are exposed has skid marks - who wants to see that?

In an attempt to outdo his own son, a 43 year old German man leaned to far out on the balcony to win the contest, loses his balance, and falls from a second story building.
He was flown in a helicopter with serious injuries but survived.
This was an almost Darwinian moment!
