Man Attacks Stain in Trousers...Destroys Apartment
Mon October 13, 2003 10:36 AM ET
MOSCOW (Reuters) - A Russian man may wish he had stuck with having dirty trousers after an imaginative attempt to purge a stubborn paint stain on them destroyed his apartment.
The unnamed Muscovite added a liter of petrol to his washing machine to help dissolve the stain, Itar-Tass news agency reported Monday, but the ensuing explosion wrecked his kitchen and demolished two internal walls.
Moscow police confirmed there had been an explosion in a south-eastern Moscow apartment, but would not comment on the cause.
Police Nab Vicious Crow by Getting It Drunk
Tue October 14, 2003 10:50 AM ET
BERLIN (Reuters) - German police apprehended a vicious crow which was attacking passers-by by getting it drunk on bait laced with alcohol, authorities said Monday.
The bird eluded its captors after attacking a woman and a young girl at the weekend until cat food soaked in high-alcohol fruit schnapps proved too tempting to resist.
"The crow was completely smashed," said a spokesman for police in the western city of Dortmund.
Police said the crow was sleeping off its hangover in a local animal home.
And a wonderful news item:
J.K. Rowling allowed German magazines that are sold by homeless on the street to publish the first chapter of HP#5 ahead of the German release date. That's wonderful. I'm glad she hasn't forgotten about the homeless. I hope sales are going good for them for this issue. They get to keep a large portion of the price paid for themselves. That's good. *nods*
Okay I'm done with my news spam now... I was really just looking for that news item about Roy that I missed when I had the volumn off on the tube. When I looked the report already was over >_<.
