bikes and mayhem
Let’s start with an update on this guy:
Better to be in an Iraqi prison with the whole world knowing you’re the shoe-thrower than in as just some guy. But still, better to be on a beach somewhere.
OK, on to bikes and not-bikes. The first one is applicable to lots of places other than Portland:
And this one is just dumb. Note to GM and Segway: there’s already a two-wheeled vehicle out there that’s cheaper and doesn’t require any energy source you weren’t born with. Also, people who use them tend to develop hot-looking asses. I’m just sayin.
I promised you a zombie the other day, and it’s not even an Easter joke:
It was believed Ntsente had been shot dead in 2001 during taxi-related violence between the Ncedo and Border taxi associations.
Ntsente claims the gunmen were in white minibus taxi – and that he saw it all happening. “During the shooting I saw myself standing on another side watching a person who resembled me being shot in the forehead, right knee stomach and spine.”
Ntsente said his badly injured “duplicate” was taken to St Barnabas Hospital in Libode . “I witnessed this person dying. The body was taken to the hospital’s mortuary where (it was) cut open to remove internal organs before it was kept in a fridge.”
Ntsente claims he even witnessed his night vigil and funeral and was then taken by “four female witches” to a dark forest where he met “lots of other abducted people”.
“We mostly drank blood and ate izinsipa (used sorghum) and wild berries. I was released after witches said I was too powerful for them to make me do evil things,” he said.
Assorted other mayhem:
- Metairie man says stranger chewed, swallowed after taking bite out of his arm
- Lenin gets it in the end
- Sword attacker sliced off victim’s left hand
A MAN who had just had his hand severed with a samurai sword punched his attacker in the face with the stump, a court heard yesterday.
And two more cases of robbery fail:
- Automatic door thwarts woman’s attempted $1,200 theft at Schnucks
- Man cries after attempt to rob liquor store fails
