CLEMSON - Immediately after a wedding, more than 300 people are
attending the reception. The groom went on stage to talk to the guests,
and thank them for attending. Many guests traveled quite a bit in order to
attend the ceremony. He especially wanted to thank the bride's and
groom's families for coming.
He also showed appreciation for the gifts everyone brought, and he
wanted to return the favor by offering everyone a small gift. He then
instructed the attendees to reach under their seats, where they will find
a manila envelope taped underneath everyone's chair.
I assume there was a moment of shock and curiosity since nobody
expected this. The guests started opening the envelopes, where they
discovered an explicit 8x10 picture of his best man having sex with his
brand new wife. (he must have gotten suspicious and hire a private
detective)
The groom stood on the stage, completely quiet, just watching the
reaction of the crowd. He did not say one word for at least two minutes,
after which he suddenly turns towards his best man and said F**k You,
then turns towards the bride and said F**k You, then he said: "I'm out of
here." as he started exiting the building.
The next day he got the marriage annuled. "While most of us would have
broken it off immediately after we found out about the affair, this guy
goes through with it anyway," said Ron Gilliams. "His revenge: making
the bride's parents pay for a 300 guest wedding and reception, letting
everybody know exactly what did happen, and trashing the bride's and
best man's reputation in front of friends and family," added Ron.
PETERBOROUGH, Canada -- Gerald Dixon, 26, of Oshawa walked into a
Bank of Montreal branch and claiming he was armed with a gun robbed
$2,600 (Canadian). He was arrested the same day when he returned to
the same branch and attempted to make a $2,000 cash deposit.
Dixon was found guilty and sentenced to 6 and-a-half years in prison.
CORONA, Calif. -- Retired minister Oswald Miegr, 85, attempted to stop
an 800-ton train, moving at a speed of 50 mph, when his Oldsmobile
Cutlas stalled on the tracks. Mieger waved his flashlight and stood in
front of the train. The train engineer blew his horn and hit the brakes but
was unable to stop before killing the man.
-Neighbors in Reading, England, called the police when they heard loud
screams coming from a nearby house. When police arrived at the scene
they broke down the door. Inside the house they discovered a deaf
couple in their 30's who switched off their hearing aids while engaging
in a wild act of lovemaking.
-Marco Zagni of Milan, Italy, tried to win his ex-girlfriend back by
swinging Tarzan-style into her bedroom on a rope. In his attempt, he hit
the floor so hard, he knocked himself uncounscious. Apparently he did >not
ain any sympathy from his ex-girlfriend, Louisa Pietra. "How could I
marry somebody so stupid?" she said.
NORFOLK, Va. -- Thomas Passmore cut off his right hand because he
thought it was possessed by the devil. The 32-year-old was working on
a construction site, when he thought he saw 666 on his hand.
Associating this with a demonic sign and obeying the Biblical instruction
If thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, he sliced off his hand with a
circular saw and completely detached it from the rest of his body.
Doctors at Sentara Norfolk General Hospital wanted to reattach the hand,
but Passmore refused to allow the surgery. He believed that by allowing
the surgery he would go to hell. The confused doctors contacted a
judge, who advised them of granting Passmore's wishes and not
reattach his hand.
Now Passmore is suing the hospital and the doctors over the loss of his
hand. His lawsuit claims the hospital should have contacted his parents
or his sister to overrule the judge's decision. He also claims that the
hospital did not tell the judge that he was incompetent.
-A Zimbabwe man was arrested for having sex with a cow. He claimed
he was affraid of contacting AIDS fom a human partner, so he
developed a special, monogamous relationship with the animal. During
his court appearance, he expressed his deep affection and love for the
cow. He also recited marriage vows and promissed to be faithful while
serving his nine month jail sentence.
A Christchurch [New Zealand] hairdresser was concerned that the
behaviour of her client seemed a little odd, especially as they were
alone in the Salon late in the evening. When his hand began making a
rythmic up and down motion under cover of the 'cape' she brained him
with a handy hair dryer, and managed to render him temporarily
unconscious. She called the police who arrived impressively fast,
before the pervert awoke. The cape was thrown back to reveal . . . the
pair of glasses he'd been cleaning.
A Chicago man said he had a good reason for recently ignoring a 40 mph
speed limit, running several red lights and then leading Chicago police on
an 11-car, high-speed chase for three miles through the downtown
area. The man's excuse? He was late for an appearance in traffic court.
