- One actual homeowner claim form stated that a broken window was the result of voodoo.

- A homeowner living in Roswell, New Mexico attempted to bring his home insurance claim to court for failing to cover the housing damages supposedly caused by a UFO attack. Needless to say, the case was laughed out of court.

A registered dietician from New York has died while choking on a taco. He had a reputation of being harsh on his clients if they are foods that are high in fat. His daily routine would involve speaking to obese clients about how their diets were terrible. He would apparently lie to them and tell them that he never eats tacos or anything of that sort. Unfortunately, he has been exposed to be dishonest through his death.

This registered dietician was hungry at about 11pm on Sunday night and he Read the rest of this entry »

When we watch crime shows on television, we are often treated to complicated cases in which the criminal leads the detectives down a windy road of twists and turns until finally, the criminal either slips up or the detectives have a brilliant or lucky breakthrough. However, in real life, low-level criminals are certainly not the brightest of people. The same critical lack of judgement that causes them to pursue a life of crime is the same one that causes them to make monumental errors in their attempts to pull off Read the rest of this entry »

Which one of us haven’t been on a trip and the must need to go is really a must need to go and you can’t hold it any longer? Of course, we all have but where do we stop?

Recently, a New Jersey man had been trying to rid his apartment of insects using wild, uncontrolled bursts of insecticide to exterminate the vile bugs. Everyone should be relieved to know that he made a great deal of progress in his efforts but somehow destroyed 80 percent of his apartment in the explosion that followed.
