Weird news stories!

I read the news online everyday. I'm addicted. I have come across some pretty weird stories lately and figured I'd share them.

Fort Pierce, Florida:
I know you all have heard of the lady who called 911 over the McNuggets! wow, I also heard on the Radio yesterday the full 911 call. What a nut! The thing that gets me is, as a district manager of a food establishment, is McDonalds didn't just give her, her money back. They were insisting she takes another food item, which she didn't want. That's why she ended up calling 911. yes she should have just called the regular non emergency police number, but hey I think McDonalds was ripping her off. I'd be pissed too!

Wellington, New Zealand:
Mall blaring Barry Manilow music to deter teens
This one cracks me up. As a Mall rat myself, I can see how this might work. after hearing Christmas music every year the day after Halloween, I can't stand it. it drives me crazy. Barry Manilow in a mall would be awful! this town has some unruly teens they want to not hang out at the mall so much. A group of teens regularly gathers, spreads graffiti, use drugs, get drunk, and intimidate other patrons of the mall. Good luck with this one, I think they need to hire some security or police to get these teens away...
