=================================
LAS CRUCES, N.M. — Three children — ages 2, 4 and 6 — were briefly detained by
police after a neighbor saw them throw a bottle through a store's glass door,
then dart away with packs of Pokemon trading cards, police say.
Being A Transexual Is A Legal Handicap
=================================
A New Jersey appeals court ruling that transsexualism can be considered a
handicap under state law has raised questions — and hackles — over the legal rights
of people who change genders.
"I'm going to start wearing a hula skirt to work because now I know I'm
protected,"
First A Special Haircut, Now A Special Dental Treatment
=================================
The Scottish Prison Service has admitted flying a dentist to the Netherlands to
treat the man convicted of the Lockerbie bombing. The disclosure came days
after it was revealed that the SPS had dispatched a female officer to Camp Zeist to
provide Abdelbaset Ali Mohmed Al Megrahi with a haircut.
The UK Has Run Out Of Elastic!!!!
=================================
A church verger in the West Midlands is appealing for women to donate their
knicker elastic to keep the church clock going.
The clock, in the tower of All Saints Church, West Bromwich, stopped last week.
The verger, David Lord, said the clock's workings relied on a piece of string
and a piece of elastic.
Man Arrested For Overdue Library Book
=================================
His affection for "Green Eggs and Ham" cost an Ann Arbor man $200 and a trip to
the city police department Friday.
The 25-year-old was arrested about 2 p.m. on a warrant from Westland, because
he failed to appear in court July 6 to explain why in three years he hadn't
returned two children's books to the William P. Foust Public Library.
I'm Not Drunk, I'm Deaf... and drunk
=================================
When police pulled over Steven Bircoll one night in April, officers thought he
was drunk: He slurred his words, he smelled of booze and he refused to take a
Breathalyzer test, according to reports.
Bircoll has a different explanation: He's deaf. He didn't understand what the
Miami-Dade County officers were telling him. He says he thought he agreed to
take the breath test -- and the whole thing was a big misunderstanding.
