The bullets and wierdness were whizzing through the air this week. Third Place goes to Pennsylvania College Student With License to Carry Firearm Exchanges Gunfire With Alleged Robber. That is a long headline. How about this instead? Potential Victim Shoots Predator? Or Student Wounded Resisting a Robbery? Or Student Wounds Robber, 2 Accomplices Flee? Congratulations to […]
Ok, I’ll admit that this week’s Third Place Story is not for the faint of heart. Man in Virginia Uses Cable to Decapitate Self After Argument With Ex-Wife. This guy really put a lot of thought into this. He and his ex-wife were having a domestic dispute. He went out and attached a metal cable to a tree,
Third Place this week goes to that lovable dictator, Muammar Qaddafi, for this headline, Qaddafi’s Crush? Condoleezza Rice. Rebels searching his palace found a photo album dedicated exclusively to Secretary Rice. He referred to her as his, “darling black African woman.” While I’m guessing it must be a little creepy to have a nutty dictator

The Philadelphia man told police that he worked for the CIA. Witnesses said the smell coming from the house was unbearable. There were numerous dead animals mixed among the living that contributed to the
Animal stories were big news this week. Third Place goes to this one from South Africa. How about this for a fun afternoon? Great White Shark Jumps Into Research Boat in South Africa. The 1100 pound shark jumped into the boat and started thrashing around, destroying the fuel line. The boat had to be towed back
It was another tough week of choices for our judges, but they managed to pick out three stories that got their attention this week. Coming in at Third Place was: Would-Be Robbers Stopped by Gun–Toting Homeowner. This took place in North Carolina where two predators kicked in the door to Jerry’s house to rob it.
The winner this week will come as no surprise to anyone who has watched the news, read the news, or just listened to other people’s conversations. But before we talk about Casey Anthony, there are a couple of other stories that at least deserve a mention. How about this one? “Coney Island Bathroom Workers Ration
