A collection of news and stuff you have heard that make you go "ooooooohhhhh dear".
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/8360095.stm?lsA Texas driver has driven his $1m Bugatti Veyron into a saltwater marsh, after apparently being distracted by a low-flying bird.
The driver said the pelican swooping into sight caused him to drop his mobile phone - and he swerved into the water when he reached down to pick it up.
Police say they do not know if the car can be salvaged, but the driver was not injured in the incident.

A man goes to a party and has too much to drink. His friends plead with him to let them take him home. He says no he only lives a mile away.
About five blocks from party, the police pull him over for weaving and ask him to get out of the car and walk the line.
Just as he starts, the police radio blares out a notice of a robbery taking place in a house just a block away. The police tell the man to stay put, they will be right back and they hop a fence and run down the street to the robbery.
The guy waits and waits and finally decides to drive home.
When he gets there, he tells his wife he is going to bed, and to tell anyone who might come looking for him that he has the flu and has been in bed all day.
A few hours later the police knock on the door. They ask if Mr. Joe is there and his wife says yes. They ask to see him and she replies that he is in bed with the flu and has been so all day.
The police have his driver's license. They ask to see his car and she asks why.
They insist on seeing his car, so she takes them to the garage. She opens the door.
There sitting in the garage is the police car, with all its lights still flashing.
True story: Told by the driver at his first AA meeting.

"Women can't play football, what about the blood rule ?"
Oh dear.

See those charges were withdrawn and the matter thrown out of court today with costs awarded to the child, once again signs of over zealous cops

I reckon it probably scared him enough not to steal
anything again.
And now I wait for all resident psychologists to tell me it will be totally opposite and he will end up being in and out of prison.
