Man and his dog smells of “SHIT”
What started as a pleasant Midsummer’s Eve stroll had an unpleasant and smelly end for a man and his dog in eastern Sweden.
Thomas Sundberg and his dog Rex were walking near the Kramfors-Sollefte airport last week when Sundberg felt the ground give way beneath him.
Seconds later, man and dog found themselves nearly submerged in a hole filled with excrement. Fortunately, both Sundberg and Rex were able to escape from the slimy pool of filth.
"It stunk something fierce, I took off all my clothes off immediately then I called my wife and then ran naked to a nearby river where we jumped in the water to get rid of the worst of the shit. I just threw my clothes away."
The hole was actually a sludge lagoon maintained by Kramfors municipality to store and dry sewage from a number of wells.
Municipality representative Tomas Lundin promised to investigate the matter to determine why the area wasn’t properly marked.

Sonic blast shatters windshield
To the driver who threw a Sonic cup at an oncoming car on State Highway 5. Marilyn Mackey has some choice words.

Mackey was driving home to Anna from her part-time job about 9:45 p.m. Sunday when she heard an explosion. Soaking wet and covered in glass, she feared she’d been shot. "I couldn’t see anything," she said. "I was trying to figure out what happened."
The Anna police came. They found a piece of Styrofoam with a Sonic logo embedded in her windshield, which also had a softball-sized hole in it. They also found part of a shredded drinking straw. The car’s interior was covered with bits of glass and sticky soda.
"It’s not every day that you get a shotgun blast with Coke — it had a phenomenal impact," said Mackey’s husband, David, who photographed the damage.
Diandra Leslie-Pelecky, a professor of physics at the University of Texas at Dallas, looked at the photos and was surprised by the damage. But, she said, the cup, the straw and the liquid are pretty solid evidence.
