I remember seeing a cartoon years ago in a newspaper. A big, burly biker-type guy was yelling at his tattoo artist who just finished his latest work of art on the biker's arm. The biker was screaming, "You idiot! I said I wanted it to say BORN TO LOSE." A close-up of the new tattoo showed that it read BORN TOO LOOSE. In a case of life imitating art, 18 year old Kimberly Vlaminck is suing her tattoo artist for $15,000.00, claiming that his English is so bad, that he misunderstood her, and after falling asleep in his chair, she woke up with 56 stars tattooed all over her face.

She IS a freak, a freakishly sound sleeper. Who sleeps through getting 56 stars tattooed all over your face? Unless she was drunk.........and if she was drunk, how could she be sure what she asked for.

Finally, this story in today's news is actually cute. Pam Peterson of Cornelius, Oregon, called police to report her husband, William Peterson missing.

She told police that he left for a fishing trip on June 6 and never returned. After an expensive and time-consuming search that wasted eight officer's time, the police discovered that William just moved out and hadn't bothered to tell his wife. He said he and her had an argument and that she told him if he didn't like living there, he should move out. So, he took her up on it. He left. As of this past Monday, he moved back in.

Since he apparently likes to take her up on these things, the next time they have an argument, she should say, " Hey, if you don't like it, go jump in a lake."

See if he takes her up on that one.
