Va. Laptop Sale Turns Into a Stampede (http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20050816/ap_on_re_us/computer_frenzy)
RICHMOND, Va. - A rush to purchase $50 used laptops turned into a violent stampede Tuesday, with people getting thrown to the pavement, beaten with a folding chair and nearly driven over. One woman went so far as to wet herself rather than surrender her place in line.
"This is total, total chaos," said Latoya Jones, 19, who lost one of her flip-flops in the ordeal and later limped around on the sizzling blacktop with one foot bare.

Police seek diaper-clad man who pesters women Mon Aug 15, 1:43 PM ET

UK police said Monday they were searching for a man wearing just a diaper, who approaches women late at night and asks: "Are there any baby changing facilities around here?"

Cleveland police in northeast England said the latest incident occurred around 11 p.m. Sunday when he surprised a women walking her dog in a play area in Eaglescliffe, near Middlesbrough.

Police said no one had been assaulted by the man but described his behavior as bizarre and a cause for concern.

"There have been several reports of him having been seen in Eaglescliffe dressed only in a nappy and we are keen to trace him and speak to him," police said.

Pretty decent actually. My company regularly upgrades desktops and laptops and I'll tell ya, the stuff they sell to the employees for $50.00 are very clean and reliable.

I've been at this company for 6 years and in that time have had 4 *new* PC upgrades (and bought two used ones)! :buttrock:

Fisherman dies chasing fish that stole his pole!

BERLIN (Reuters) - A fish caught in an east German lake near the Polish border not only got off the hook but also lured a 46-year-old fisherman to his death, police in the eastern town of Eisenhuettenstadt said Tuesday.

A police spokeswoman said the fish pulled the fishing rod out of the man's hands and dragged it about 100 metres away from shore at the Kleinen Pohlitzer lake near Eisenhuettenstadt. The man took off his clothes and swam after the pole.

An eyewitness said the man reached the rod floating on the surface but then suddenly stopped moving. The witness, 54, swam out to help him and pulled the fisherman back to shore, where he was later pronounced dead, police said.

"I know it sounds like an incredible story but it really happened," an Eisenhuettenstadt police spokeswoman said. "It was apparently just an ordinary fish."

[cblakey1]

dont these people have any pride?

It's not a pride issue. It is the 'Murican way.. the haves and the have nots and keeping up with the jonses.

Eisenhuettenstadt
maybe it wasnt an accident - maybe he wanted to die cuz he could prounounce the name of the damn town he lived in

[Korann]

I like the part where it says "It was apparently just an ordinary fish."
