Gay Man Prevents Florist Friars


I’m a little behind on the postings but the one thing that sticks out about the last 6 days is that it has been a weird week. Especially when it comes to news. And by news I’m not referring to the constantly resurfacing rumor that Hugh Jackman is gay. Here are your weird news stories of the week.


Woman stops bullet with hair


KANSAS CITY, Mo. -Other than having a bit of a headache, a Kansas City woman was uninjured after a bullet fired at her ended up tangled in her hair weave. Police said the 20-year-old woman was in a convenience store parking lot late Wednesday when a man flagged her down and told her that her ex-boyfriend still loved her.

She replied, "Well I dont love him," then heard gunshots. She said she looked behind the vehicle and saw her ex-boyfriend firing a handgun at her. She stomped her accelerator and fled, then turned into another parking lot and called police.

She told officers she recently had ended an eight-month relationship with the suspect.
Police arrested the ex-boyfriend and his friend in a car.

Man Finds 35 Pounds of Marijuana in Car's Gas Tank
Wednesday, February 18, 2009


SANDY, Utah — A man who brought his newly bought car in to see why the gas gauge always read half full got quite a surprise: a stash of marijuana hidden inside.


A mechanic in Sandy who took a look at the gas tank discovered about 35 pounds of pot, which Sandy police say is worth about $35,000. The packages of drugs were wrapped in plastic and could have been in the tank for several months.


The Nissan Armada had several different owners and was once a rental car. Police are trying to figure out who stashed the drugs in the tank. Police say the current owner is not a suspect.
