Hot Dogs, An Old Lady & A Wedding
Speaking of dogs, we go from Fredericksburg, Virginia to East Point, Michigan where Inez Starks got herself into a confrontation 3 years ago with her daughter and the police, during which time, Starks claims she was bit on the butt by a German Shepard police dog and sustained nerve damage. She sued the dog. You read that right. She didn't sue the police department. SHE SUED THE DOG!!!!!!! My hat's off to Judge David Viviano. Not only did he NOT award her any damages. He hit her with a $500 fine for filing such a stupid, frivolous lawsuit. I wish more judges would do this. She might have had a better shot if she pleaded insanity due to brain damage from that bite, if you know what I mean. So the lesson we've learned here is that filing a frivolous lawsuit can come back to bite you in the butt.
DUMB CRIMINAL ALERT
Shelia Quinn brought this one up this morning. A 19-year old would-be thief pulled a a gun on an older man in the men's room of a hotel. The problem was that the older man was a retired police chief AND there was currently a police convention going on in the hotel. This dope barely made it out of the building. Remember, robbery is like real estate................location, location, location.
Finally, the world's oldest living woman has been found. She's 130 years old.
She doesn't look a day over 120. Her name is Sakhan Dosova. She's from Kazakhstan (Isn't that where Borat was from?). She is the mother of 10. She claims she's never been to a doctor in her life (She would've outlived them all anyway). She also says she never eats sweets and that she's addicted to cottage cheese (I'd rather die at a normal age). She attributes her longevity to her sense of humor (Yeah, she looks like a real cut-up, doesn't she? At a party, the first one with a lampshade on her head). She was born on March 27, 1879. They no longer give her a birthday cake because it's considered a fire hazard (Alright, I made that part up). When she was born, Queen Victoria still had 22 more years to rule in Britain. It was also the same year Stalin and Einstein were born. Sir Arthur Canon Doyle published his first story, and the same year Edison invented the light bulb. Despite her age, Dosova says she remembers details of her childhood. In fact, I was flattered when she was being interviewed by the media a few days ago and she told them that she remembers very clearly that when she was in grammar school, Denny More sat right in front of her.
