News of the weird

Miscellaneous Musing by Judy @ 6:55 am PDT

It’s a weird news day this morning. From the side blog:

In Berlin, a drunk fell asleep in a sex shop until after the store was closed. He was picked up by police when he set off the alarms trying to get out. Police say he “provided evidence” that he was not a burglar. I’m not sure I want to know what that evidence was. :lol:

Police in a wealthy Vancouver, British Columbia, neighborhood are looking for three female theives who only steal expensive wines.

Exeter, England, claims to harbor as many ghosts as citizens.

News of the weird must have risen to the top of the Reuters RSS feed this morning.

Or maybe it’s just that I haven’t had any sleep for a week, and after having the permanent crown put on my tooth yesterday I still feel like I’ve been kicked in the jaw several times.
