    So... global warming, talk of recessions, unrest in various countries around the world and chavs.
    At the minute, there seems to be a number of depressing issues in the news. How about we look at the more cheerful and bizarre news stories?
    http://uk.news.yahoo.com/rtrs/20080222/tts...-1d9e349_2.html
    This story made me smile. The idea that a man could think he could just walk into a school and have no one notice is laughable.
    So has anyone else got any stories?

        What do you mean, no one noticed? The article says they were screaming at him.

                            That's pretty hilarious. I'd probably scream too if some 40-year-old guy came running into my school dressed like a chick.

                              I would point and laugh and wait for something even funnier to happen. But nevertheless, that was a funny story.

                              I found this amusing: http://news.aol.com/story/_a/singapore-sto...212172409990001

                                    Oh man! XD That's hilarious! Too bad the "Breaking News" on Fox or CNN can't be that light hearted.

                                    I actually think I'm going to print that out and show it to my teacher. He likes to joke about his senior moments.

                                          This is one I found while searching under "stupid criminals"

                                          "A BURGLAR who knocked on his victim's door before he crept in through an open window was caught after he left behind medication with his name on.

                                          Heroin addict John Beckwith provided police with another valuable clue at the scene -an imprint of his training shoe on a window sill.

                                          He checked by knocking on the door if anyone was in, but unfortunately, the lady did not hear that.

                                          But the 28-year-old was left as shocked as Ms Simmonds when he walked into her bedroom and found her sitting on a bed having an afternoon cup of tea. He was as surprised as she was by the confrontation.

                                          A court heard yesterday that Beckwith thought he was breaking into an empty house because homeowner Jane Simmonds did not answer his knocks on the door.

                                          "He would like to apologize for the distress he caused that lady." "

                                          Wow. What a polite young criminal! XD

                                            That was funny. It was extremely stupid for him to leave medicine with his name on it. lol

                                              I thought that was a great story. I remember seeing that yesterday and thinking, 'that's a great thing to do.'
