`A hydrofluoric acid spill has forced the closure of a significant portion of the downtown Phoenix area this morning. [..]
About 330 gallons of hydrofluoric acid leaked from a truck that was heading north on Seventh Avenue from Interstate 17, officials said. The truck turned east on Monroe and stopped at about Fifth Avenue.
Hydrofluoric acid is highly corrosive, but does not produce any toxic or harmful fumes, officials said.’
The “officials” are “officially idiots”. The minimum lethal dose for humans is 50 ppm in air over 30 minutes. By my calculations, 330 gallons would be enough to kill 982,586 people, if ingested.
`There’s no getting around it. At some point in your career, your patience will be tested with a stupid client who is so clueless that you’ll question your sanity, career choice, and the future of mankind.
You may have dealt with one already, one that just stuns you like a deer in headlights. Dumbfounded to utter anything but an “uhhh…”. Some clients have no concept of reality. They make up their mind, just to change it again to an even more hideous decision. And will end up blaming you for the mess. Can we honestly blame the client? Sure we can…’
`An operator said that the man was extremely shy to talk about such an intricate occurrence. His voice was trembling when the operator was asking him for details. As it became known, the young man was having a session of sex games with his girlfriend. It suddenly occurred to the girl to use a vibrating electric toothbrush in order to experience an absolutely different kind of pleasure. The enterprising lovers decided to turn the toothbrush on, and the girl carefully forced it inside the man’s rectum. It just so happened that the toothbrush slipped out of the girl’s hands because of abundant lubricant that she had applied on the “extreme vibrator.” The dental-care device made its way down the rectum alone. It became impossible to take the toothbrush out as a result of such a daring sexual experiment.’
`Michael Warner, a 58-year-old machine shop owner, had a long history of alcoholism, but couldn’t ingest alcohol because of medical problems with his throat, said Lake Jackson Police detective Robert Turner. The wine enema was a way he could become intoxicated without drinking alcohol, Turner said.
“I heard of this kind of thing in mortuary school in 1970, but this is the first time I’ve ever heard of someone actually doing it,” Turner said.
[..] “We’re not talking about little bottles here,” Turner said, “These were at least 1.5 liter bottles.”‘
`During his daily sports report last week on Wild 4 News, the Estero High junior and another student were recapping the girls soccer team’s 8-0 shutout win against North Fort Myers. The script, pre-approved by their TV production teacher, said that the team really kicked some booty.
Then Devlin, wanting to inject a little energy into his broadcast, responded with a quick-witted joke:
“I love booty,” he cracked.
Instead of a laugh, though, Devlin’s statement got him called into the administrative office.’
`The scriptures clearly indicate that neither Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, faithful Job, the Apostles, Jesus nor any other human bearing God’s favor himself owned a cat. Should we simply assume that this is a mere coincidence? Surely not! This was most likely because they didn’t want to be like the pagan contemporaries of their respective days who showed no regard for how God feels about owning a cat. In harmony with the pattern set by the faithful prophets and worthies of old, it would therefore not be fitting for the true Christian today to own a cat. [..]
The question of how to dispose of one’s unwanted cat is a serious matter. Would it be proper to hand over such a creature of Satan to a person of the world? We see no immediate problem with this, as such a person is already immersed in the wicked ways of this system of things, and so a beastly companion would be a fitting one indeed.’
`An asteroid expected to fly past Earth in 2029 will be visible to the naked eye, scientists projected Thursday. [..]
The 2029 event will be the closest brush by a good-sized asteroid known to occur. The rock will pass Earth inside the orbits of some satellites. No other asteroid has ever been clearly visible to the unaided eye.
The asteroid is roughly estimated to be a little more than 1,000 feet (320 meters) wide.’
`A newlywed Cambodian husband caught by his wife in bed with the family dog angered her even more by proclaiming his love for the dog and asking for a divorce.
Police said the 24-year-old husband was found by his shocked 20-year-old wife in a passionate embrace with the dog, a two-year-old mongrel bitch.
The wife became even more upset when the man confessed he loved the dog more than her [..]’

`A man says a traffic ticket a state trooper gave him is for the birds — or at least for flipping the bird. Stephen Corey, 42, filed a federal lawsuit because he says he had a First Amendment right to flip his middle finger at the trooper in July.
Trooper Samuel Nassan III gave Corey, a flight attendant from Pittsburgh, a ticket for following another vehicle too closely, then wrote him up for giving “an improper hand signal while passing my patrol car, namely middle finger up,” according to Corey’s lawsuit.’

` The disc is to be taped or glued to the bottom of your car’s gas tank. Promoters say it significantly increases gas mileage and improves air quality. They don’t say how it works, beyond claiming it sends “holographic frequencies into the gas tank and changes the molecular structure of the gasoline.”
“It doesn’t work,” says Dr. Terry Parker, a physics professor at the Colorado School of Mines. Parker and graduate student John Dane of the chemistry department tested the device for 9News.
“It’s clear that it’s just a sticker and nothing else,” Dane said.’
