Ciudatenii

The following is from the British Sunday Express giving Gongs (medals) for dubious distinctions

1.To John Bloor, who mistook a tube of superglue for his hemorrhoid cream and glued his buttocks together.

2.To Henry Smith, arrested moments after returning home with a stolen stereo. His error was having tattooed on his forehead in large capital letters the words "Henry Smith." His lawyer told the court: "My client is not a very bright young man."

3.To Michael Robinson, who rang police to deliver a bomb threat, but became so agitated about the mounting cost of the call that he began screaming, "Call me back!" and left his phone number.

4.To Paul Monkton, who used as his getaway vehicle a van with his name and phone number painted in foot-high letters on the side.

5.To Julia Carson, who as her tearful family gathered 'round her coffin in a New York funeral parlor, sat bolt upright and asked what the hell was going on. Celebrations were short-lived, due to the fact that Mrs. Carson's daughter, Julie, immediately dropped dead from shock.

6.To poacher Marino Malerba, who shot a stag standing above him on an overhanging rock -- and was killed instantly when it fell on him.

7.To the passengers on a jam-packed train from Margate to Victoria, who averted their eyes while John Henderson and Zoe D'Arcy engaged in oral sex and then moved on to inter-course ... but complained when the pair lit up post-coital cigarettes in a nonsmoking compartment.
