Lady Wakes Up After Being Clinically Dead For 18 Hours

May 22, 2008 · 7 Comments

And she seems to have no damage to her heart.

The miraculous recovery of a woman who had no neurological function for 18 hours is baffling to the woman’s attending physicians. They performed a ‘heart cath’ on the patient on Wednesday, May 21, to determine the level of damage to Val’s heart. They found no blockage or damage. She has been sent on to the Cleveland Clinic to further investigate what appears to be an electrical problem within her heart.

If You Want To Get A Gun While Buying A Car

May 22, 2008 · Leave a Comment

This car dealer in Missouri is the place for you.

“This thing has taken off. Sales have quadrupled,” said Muller. The store sells both used and new vehicles including General Motors and Ford products.

Every buyer so far “except one guy from Canada and one old guy” has elected to take the gun, Muller said. Muller recommends his customers select a Kel-Tec .380 pistol.

“It’s a nice little handgun that fits in your pocket,” he said.

Muller said the promotion was inspired by Illinois Sen. Barack Obama, who is vying with Hillary Clinton to be the Democratic nominee for the presidential election in November.

“We did it because of Barack Obama. He said all those people in the Midwest, you’ve got to have compassion for them because they’re clinging to their guns and their Bibles. I found that quite offensive.”

“We all go to church on Sunday and we all carry guns,” said Muller. “I’ve got a gun in my pocket right now. I have a rifle in my truck. We’ve got to shoot the coyotes out here, they’re attacking our cows, our chickens. We’re not clinging to nothing. We’re just damn glad to live in a free country where you can have a gun if you want. This is the way it ought to be.”

Apparently, the fruit from one tree can induce a state in animals that mirrors an alcohol-induced stupor.

If You Plan On Riding Your Bicycle In Germany While Intoxicated

May 22, 2008 · Leave a Comment

Prepare for the consequences.

The country’s highest administrative court was ruling on the case of a man near Berlin whose licence was taken away after he was caught cycling with a blood-alcohol level four times the legal limit.

Medical tests found he was a heavy drinker and probably often in no state to cope with road hazards. The council appealed when a local court overruled the decision to revoke his licence.

Meanwhile other offences now look set to attract significantly stiffer sentences after Chancellor Angela Merkel’s cabinet approved a raft of new measures aimed at reducing road deaths. A government spokesman confirmed that drink drivers could from 2009 face fines of up to €3,000 ($4,720), double the current maximum, and a penalty of €2,000 for jumping a red light.

When Printing The Berlin Phone Book

May 22, 2008 · Leave a Comment

At least put the correct city picture on the cover.

Some 700,000 new Berlin phone books are now available at local post offices, but the image on the cover is a young man with his laptop in front of Munich’s city hall, instead of Berlin’s famous red brick city hall, known as the Rotes Rathaus.

“Two images were switched,” TVG Verlag publishing house spokesperson Frank Wenz told Berlin daily Der Tagesspiegel on Thursday, in what he called a “very regrettable mistake.”

TVG Verlag worked together with Deutsche Telekom Medien GmbH to produce telephone books for Berlin, Munich and Hamburg. Wenz told the paper that TVG Verlag discovered their error only after the books had gone to print.

“We apologize to all Berliners who are disturbed by this,” Wenz told the paper.

The Berlin phone book comes in two volumes, but only the L-Z book bears an image from the wrong city. The A-K volume features a photo of Berlin’s main train station.

“Sometimes you can’t see the forest for the trees,” Wenz told Der Tagesspiegel.

Kenny Williams Is Not A Happy Camper

And it seems as though he no longer enjoys working in the American League.

“If I ever leave this job or if I ever get fired,” Williams says, “I’m not coming back to the American League. I’m going to the National League. You’ve got a fighting chance over there.”
