Slow Tuesday

I hope others follow the example of a guy in China.

This has to be the funniest story I have seen in a long time.

Passer-By Pushes Suicidal Jumper

Chen Fuchao, a man heavily in debt, had been contemplating suicide on a bridge in southern China for hours when a passer-by came up, shook his hand — and pushed him off the ledge.

The passer-by, 66-year-old Lai Jiansheng, had been fed up with what he called Chen's "selfish activity." Traffic around the Haizhu bridge in the city of Guangzhou had been backed up for five hours and police had cordoned off the area.

Oh man, memories of Mel Gibson in Lethal Weapon. Quick fix to selfish activity for sure.


Speaking of China

I saw an interesting ad for a Chinese restaurant the other day.

It read "authentic Chinese food New York Style."



I know a lot of cops that would like to receive a call to head to the doughnut shop, but I bet several wanted to roll code 3 on this one.

Nudity complaint near Maine topless doughnut shop

VASSALBORO, Maine -Prosecutors will review a complaint that a waitress from a Maine topless doughnut shop was outside the business without a shirt on.

The Central Maine Morning Sentinel says a state trooper was sent to the Grand View Topless Coffee shop on Saturday after someone called in a complaint.

Rumor has it another officer was there and called in the complaint so his fellow officers would join him.



Man, kids are getting smarter at a younger age nowadays.

Boy Takes Wheel After Dad Passes Out

NORTH PLATTE, Neb. - A 6-year-old boy grabbed the wheel of his family's pickup truck when his father passed out from low blood sugar, keeping the vehicle from crashing until an officer could bring it to a halt, police said

The kindergartner steered the truck several blocks, even turning around when he entered a neighborhood he didn't recognize, until he was spotted by police.

North Platte officer Roger Freeze ran up to the moving pickup, reached through an open window and rammed the gearshift into park.

It's a guy thing - boys pay a lot more attention to driving.


Toddler buys earthmover in online auction

New Zealand -A New Zealand mom made some online bids on toys before napping. Then her 3-year-old daughter took over and bought a bigger plaything than expected — a huge earth-moving digger for a cool $12,300.

Pipi Quinlan made the winning 20,000 New Zealand dollar ($12,300) bid on the Kobelco digger with a few mouse clicks at the auction site TradeMe while her parents slept, the Rodney Times newspaper reported in northern New Zealand.

I guess the women like the heavy equipment. I think the women like to move heaven and earth.

Ok so today is another 7 A.M. to midninght shift so there will be no post tomorrow.
