Weirdest news you have read
in your local newspaper:
A 19-year-old man stands on busy street corner holding a white sign with
big, bold, black letters that reads simply, "Free Hugs."
"I am just a regular teenager who believes this is something good
for humankind," he said, never dropping the sign he held up for passing
motorists.
Why horror?
Raising
three young kids you can’t get away from it, I mean what’s more horrific than
cleaning off oddly looking satanic symbols written in crayon on flat painted
walls.
Here's a photo. (seen on Interview main
page)
“INEDIBLE NOT INTENDED FOR HUMAN FOOD”
You have 112 words. Go.
I’m
heading down the freeway with all my kids in tow; from the back seat rings,
“Don’t touch me!”
“He started it!”
“I didn’t do it!”
As I
contemplate the length of drive ahead of me, I notice a tanker truck off to my
right. What an unusual warning sign and
in duct tape no less.... hmmmm, duct tape, wouldn’t
that be useful right about now... Not for human consumption? What could
possibly be in a tanker with that kind of sign...?
“Mom, she’s kicking me!”
“Stop it!”
“OW!”
Maybe it
is the liquefied brains of moms who have to drive in a small vehicle with three
kids in the back.
