Winnie the Pooh Arrested

What is Winnie the Pooh up to these days? According to Japanese police, it appears that our favorite winsome little bear is committing assault and armed robbery. Unlike most fairy tales, this one does not have a happy ending.
In August Tokyo police arrested Masayuki Ishikawa, a 20 year-old man who attacked and robbed two people because they had the nerve to stare at his Winnie-the-Pooh costume.
At the time of his arrest, he was in the company of two costumed friends; one a panther and the other a mouse. Apparently the threesome had donned the costumes because they ran out of clean clothes.
Police told reporters that “It’s uncommon to see people dressed up like this, so the victims were watching them. Then the perpetrator came up and said, ‘What are you staring at?’”
In true Winnie-the Unpooh-like fashion, Ishikawa and his two cohorts beat up the two unfortunates and stole 160 dollars from them.

BoneTown Blues

The maker of a new adult videogame called BoneTown says it is creating a “new industry”
Console manufacturers Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft refuse to license Adult Only-rated games for development on their systems, leaving the PC as the only viable alternative for companies that want to develop “porn games,” but even those endeavors face significant obstacles from retailers, most of whom won’t stock AO titles. As a result, the only practical way to market and sell the games is online.

The Ultimate Speed Bump

The local government in ShanXi province, China, decided they had enough of people speeding on their highways.
In an effort to stop speeders once and for all, they built a 100 foot long and 2 foot high winding speed block in the middle of the Jing Zhuang highway.
Unfortunately for the drivers, the speed bump is so narrow that a large number of cars end up scraping against the side even when driving careful. The speed bump has also taken the 2 lane highway down to a single lane, which has resulted in daily traffic jams.

Armless Man Caught Driving with His Feet

Zing Shen, a 42 year-old man with no arms, was recently caught driving with his feet in Beijing.
Zing told police that ever since he lost his arms in an industrial accident several years ago, he had used his feet to steer his vehicle without difficulty. He has no arms from the elbows down.
“He had an automatic so did not need to worry about changing gears and said he had put a lot of practice into learning to control the steering wheel with his legs. He said he was actually even more careful now with driving than he had been before he lost his arms. He was surprised when we arrested him.”
