Woman sits in jail for 50 days because of cat urine
Cat urine kept Cynthia Hunter in jail for 50 days. Hunter, 38, was arrested for petty theft and possession of a controlled substance. The theft charge came after she was accused of stealing from a Brandon Wal-Mart store. The controlled substance charge came because deputies found a vial containing a yellow substance in her purse and thought it was methamphetamine. Hunter was released Thursday, after lab tests found the substance was cat urine, as Hunter had claimed all along, court records show. Hunter told a deputy the dehydrated cat urine was for her son's science project, according to a court transcript. The deputy, though, did a field test for drugs and the substance came back positive for methamphetamine, according to court records. » Article here

Women from LA and Miami are the kinkiest in bed.
New York women have among the naughtiest tastes of women in the country, according to a new survey. While 8 of 10 New York women polled said they would consider using handcuffs or a blindfold during a sexual encounter, more than half - 55 percent - say they already have. Six out of 10 admitted to having hot hookups with a guy on the first date.
Overall, Gotham gals come in third as the naughtiest ladies in the 10 cities polled. That's behind the luscious ladies of Los Angeles and the magnificent mamas of Miami. Four out of 10 say they have gone to a bar without wearing any underwear. And while nine out of 10 consider themselves to be "nice," eight of 10 of those girls admit they have a "naughty side." With that in mind, when asked about the "naughtiest" hook-up location, the 1,244 women polled listed a chicken factory, a Christmas-tree farm, the Eiffel Tower, a nun's car and Grandpa's 80th-birthday party, among the more notable responses.
95 percent of the women polled nationally said they would rather endure the pain of a Brazilian bikini wax to hooking up with a guy who smells. » Article here

75-Year-Old Woman Smashes Up Comcast Office With Hammer
"Have I got your attention now?" asked Mona Shaw of the Comcast payment center employees as she smashed their keyboard, monitor and telephone. The 75-year-old woman was outraged after multiple delays and broken promises surrounding her Comcast Triple Play installation. Her little scene got her arrested for disorderly conduct and an apology from Comcast and assurances that her installation would be taken care of promptly. But Shaw had enough, she's switching back to Verizon. "It's totally not like me to do stuff like this," said Shaw. "But it is so irresponsible and so disrespectful. I can't think of any company reacting that way. It's like they got you in their clutches and they'll do what they damn well please." "What the hell, I'm 75," she added. » Article here

Vodka drip saves poisoned Italian
Australian doctors revealed yesterday that they drip-fed an Italian tourist a steady dose of vodka over three days to save his life after he poisoned himself. The 24-year-old man was taken to a north Queensland hospital two months ago after he swallowed a large amount of a potentially-fatal substance found in antifreeze in an apparent suicide attempt.
Doctors at Mackay Base Hospital decided the best method of saving the unconscious man's life was to reverse the effect of the poison, ethylene glycol, by giving him pharmaceutical-grade alcohol. Dr Pascal Gelperowicz said that once the hospital's alcohol supplies ran out doctors sent out for a case of vodka and the unusual drip was set up. "We quickly used all the available vials of 100 percent alcohol and decided the next best way to get alcohol into the man's system was by feeding him spirits through a nasal-gastric tube," Gelperowicz said.
His colleague Dr Todd Fraser said the patient was given about three standard drinks an hour for three days in the intensive care unit. The patient regained full health and was discharged from hospital after 20 days.
