I didn't find it so entertaining, but it hasn't been so long since I was pumping gas and a young woman pulled up on the opposite side of the pump and started to open her gas tank with a lit cigarette in her hand.
My heart started beating VERY fast and I said (sternly) "Put out the cigarette"
She continued to puff and continued to reach toward her gas tank, so I said,
"Look dummy, you may not care whether you live or die, but I have kids. PUT OUT THE CIGARETTE."
She put out the cigarette immediately. I think maybe she was afraid of me -- just a little. She needed to be.

She needed to be a little more afraid of herself, too. |

Okey Dokey. This butthead didn't like his dinner - so he ate most of it, then told him to take it off his bill. Then when they refused, he walked out without paying for his meal, his date's meal or their coffees and desserts.
When the restaurant goes after him for his $46 meal, he hires a $500/hour attorney to defend him. Quote:
Jurors, who smirked during arguments early in the day, began to act perturbed after 5 p.m. — especially as lawyers fired objections and called for bench conferences with the judge. They finally got the case about 6:45 p.m.
The jury took less than a half-hour to find Paul not guilty.
| What a waste of court time!!!
Good think that I wasn't on the jury! The guy is a jerk. I wouldn't send him to jail for this, but what a friggin waste of time and money.
But at least he has principles. |

I wonder if he would have paid the attorney if he had lost? I suppose the lawyer knew enough to get his $$ up front, though.

Homeless man prefers cotton clothing to polyester, so he conducted his own fabric test by setting the clothing on fire. Who doesn't loathe polyester? Beings as it was in Walmart, it's lucky the entire clothing section didn't go up in flames.  |

Left Behind, Florida-style.
A woman riding behind on a motorcycle fell off while the rider drove away. I wonder if he figured he'd just get another one the next time he stopped?  |

2 Delray Beach priests took over $8.6M Quote: |
In a bold scheme carried out over decades, two respected priests are accused of stealing more than $8.6 million in cash from the collection plates at St. Vincent Ferrer Catholic Church to bankroll lavish secret lives that included steady girlfriends, investments in property in Florida and Ireland and gambling junkets to casinos in Las Vegas and the Bahamas.

Boy, I'll bet they feel stupid now, since Florida real estate prices are dropping like rocks.  |

I think letting him get by with a blood sample is too easy. I think they should get a urine sample via internal catheter

OMG, I am just dying here! No article, but there is a video on good old WFTV. A woman tried stealing another woman's purse. Inside a karate school. Where the owner of the purse is a - wait for it - karate instructor!
I love it! Stupid Florida criminals at their very best!  |

"Need a transfer?"
A 15 year old stole a bus, drove the route picking up passengers. Florida never fails to disappoint when you're bored at work!  |
