That’s Your Half
A Serb man halved everything with his wife, after the
court ordered him to share everything, literally. He sawed all of his
farm equipment with a grinding machine. He halved a tractor, tools and
he is also trying to figure out how to halve a cow. He gladly shared
everything with his wife, but he was angry for the fact that he had to
half his farm equipment.

Arkansas lawmakers repealed a 2007 marriage law that
could be interpreted that people under the age of 18 could get married
with parental consent, even toddlers. The Arkansas Legislature changed
the law so that it read girls could marry at 17 and boys at 16.
Is that a
Guitar?
Three men stole a Fender guitar from a music
store. One man slid the guitar into his pants and covered the top with
his sweatshirt. The other men acted as lookouts. My question is,
wouldn’t a guitar-shaped spot in your pants look suspicious and
wouldn’t the owners have noticed if a guitar was missing?
That’s Good Hiding
Place!
A man allegedly tried to conceal “crack” in a donut
box. The cops watched while the man removed the drug paraphernalia and
put it back. The police opened the empty donut box to discover the drug
inside.
Fighting Back
A Minnesota woman bit a pit bull, which was
attacking her dog. She bit the animal on the nose only after she could
not get it off her dog. The bite she inflicted drew blood.

for victims of the tornadoes.

This Week’s Read
“The House of Seven Gables” by Nathaniel Hawthorne. Hawthorne
writes about the decay of a family, a house and a society. Hawthorne
satirizes the 19th-century New England Society’s preoccupation
with class status. He makes fun of the aristocracy found in upper part
of New England society. The book uses decay to describe “physical
degradation and decay to mirror the spiritual decay the Pycheon family
suffers."
