Toronto Police Face Bizarre Scene
In what was considered nothing more than a common domestic disturbance call, Toronto police were baffled when they entered the suburban home of a 33 year old man today. Inside was the house owner, tied to his ceiling fan wearing nothing but a tutu, and with 42 dollar bills stuffed down his throat - the reason he had not been able to call for help himself. It was only the vigilance of concerned neighbours, hearing sharp cries some time earlier, which saw the arrival of the police.
Sources say the victim had also suffered several blows to his rear quarters with a blunt object, but as yet it is not clear what object. When reporters asked if the police has any suspects, they said the only description the terrified victim had been able to give of his assailant was something describing "a bat".
Detectives have very little to go on in this strange crime, as it seems more like a personal vendetta than a robbery; the man was apparently attacked in his own home, forced to undress, spanked and then tied to a spinning ceiling fan - a strange ritual indeed. Authorities have not issued any warnings to the public as yet, as they have no indications this was anything more than a one-time assault. They still encourage people in the area to be careful letting strangers into their homes.

Yeah, it's been going down the tubes for years now. Look at our president. For some entertainment, anyone ever read any Bushisms? Here's a nice one..."You're free. And freedom is beautiful. And, you know, it'll take time to restore chaos and order--order out of chaos. But we will." Yup, and he's doing a good job...Orfinn wrote:Yeat again if this is true, america have really fallen far

Not actually news,more of a facts.But still,quite bizzare.And funny
Im considering of moving to GuamBizzare facts of our world
In Lebanon, men are legally allowed to have sex with animals, but the animals must be female.
Having sexual relations with a male animal are punishable by death. (like THAT makes sense)
***
In Bahrain, a male doctor may legally examine a woman's genitals, but is prohibited from looking
directly at them during the examination. He may only see their reflection in the mirror.
***
Muslims are banned from looking at the genitals of a corpse. This also applies to undertakers;
the sex organs of the deceased must be covered with a brick or piece of wood at all times.
(a brick!??)
***
The penalty for masturbation in Indonesia is decapitation.
***
There are men in Guam whose full-time job is to travel the countryside and deflower young virgins,
who pay them for the privilege of having sex for the first time... Reason: under Guam law, it is
expressly forbiden for virgins to marry. (Let's just think for a minute; is there any job anywhere
else in the world that even comes close to this? And with that as the job, what could they give
you for fringe benefits?)
***
In Hong Kong, a betrayed wife is legally allowed to kill her adulterous husband, but may only do
so with her bare hands. The husband's lover, on the other hand, may be killed in any manner desired.
(Ah! Justice!)
***
Topless saleswomen are legal in Liverpool, England - but only in tropical fish stores. (But of course)
***
In Cali, Columbia, a woman may only have sex with her husband, and the first time it happens, her
mother must be in the room to witness the act. (Makes one shudder at the thought.)
***
In Santa Cruz, Bolivia, it is illegal for a man to have sex with a woman and her daughter at the same time.
(I presume this was a big enough problem that they had to pass this law?)
***
In Maryland, it is illegal to sell condoms from vending machines with one exeption: prophylactics
may be dispensed from a vending machine only "in places where alcoholic beverages are sold for
consumption on the premises." (Is this a great country or what? Not as great as Guam!)
***
If you yelled for 8 years, 7 months and 6 days, you would have produced enough sound energy to
heat one cup of coffee. (Hardly seems worth it)
***
If you fart consistently for 6 years and 9 months, enough gas is produced to create the energy
of an atomic bomb. (Now that's more like it)
***
A pig's orgasm lasts for 30 minutes. (In my next life I want to be a pig)
***
Some lions mate over 50 times a day. (In my next life I STILL want to be a pig...quality over quantity)
***
Banging your head against a wall uses 150 calories an hour. (Still not over that pig thing)
***
Humans and dolphins are the only species that have sex for pleasure.
(Is that why Flipper is always smiling?)
***
The strongest muscle in the body is tongue. (Hummm...I won't touch THAT one!)
***
The ant can lift 50 times its own weight, can pull 30 times its own weight and always falls over on
its right side when intoxicated. (From drinking little bottles of...? Did the govt. pay for this research?)
***
Butterflies taste with their feet. (Ah, geez)
***
An ostrich's eye is bigger than it's brain. (I know some people like that)
***
Starfish don't have brains. (I know some people like that, too)

I was just over at superdickery.com and he is still trying to recover from being hacked a couple of weeks ago. No updates since December -- I can hardly stand it. At least there are still StupidComics on misterkitty.org.

Back to the "real" news:
'Red Light' District Declares Open House
from: http://apnews.myway.com/article/20060217/D8FR3N8G0.html
AMSTERDAM, Netherlands (AP) - There may be no such thing as a free lunch, but occasionally there's a cheap feast for the eyes.
Several topless bars, peep shows and sex show clubs in Amsterdam's famed "Red Light" prostitution district have declared an open house on Feb. 18, hoping to shore up their reputation with local politicians who are calling for a crackdown.
"You can come in, have a free drink, look around," said Bob de Maan, spokesman for the "Banana Bar," which is known for its live sex shows.
"People think that this is something dirty, but now - it's an open house. They can see for themselves."
Prostitution in Amsterdam boomed during the city's 17th century Golden Age, when prostitutes catered to sailors on shore leave.
With its lingerie-clad women and red neon lights, the area in the city center became a major tourist draw in the 20th century. The Dutch government legalized prostitution in 2000 with an eye to making it easier to tax and regulate.
But problems have continued as the area acts as a magnet for pimps, drug addicts, petty criminals and human traffickers. A recent study found that despite health rules, about 7 percent of Dutch prostitutes have HIV, the virus that causes AIDs.
The open house came in response to proposals by the head of Amsterdam's largest political party meant to discourage women from marketing themselves in windows.
Several of the best-known institutions are opening their doors, in an idea supported by the Prostitution Information Center, the Sex Museum, and the Salvation Army which helps the district's many downtrodden.
