Doesn't look very appeased to me
-Covering all the bases-
After experiencing electrical problems on one of its two 757s, Nepal airlines was quick to reassure passengers that its planes are safe. "The snag in the plane has now been fixed and the aircraft has resumed its flights," said a spokesperson for the airline.
But it never hurts to be absolutely sure and the airline has reportedly "sacrificed two goats to appease Akash Bhairab, the Hindu sky god." That ought to take care of everything. (Reuters)
-Headline of the day-
"Man reportedly naked in town." You'd think there'd be at least one naked man in any town at any given time. But the problem was that the guy was outside. Surprisingly, Portsmouth, ME police couldn't close the case, no one was arrested, and the naked man may still be naked and at large. (SeacoastOnline.com)
-What part of this seemed like a good idea?-
Christopher Billie of Flagstaff, AZ was arrested and charged with auto burglary after stealing flowers out of the back of a hearse -- while the funeral was going on. Police were called after a funeral director watched "Billie opened the hearse door, climbed inside and began grabbing flower vase," according to the report. He was "detained by the mortician until officers arrived."
Christopher Billie, really lowering the bar on what a drunken asshole is capable of. (AP)
-I think he's getting too old for this-
18 hours into his Labor Day telethon, an 81 year old Jerry Lewis got a little goofy -- and not in a good way. According to the report, "In the midst of a typically Lewis-ian rant in the 18th hour of his Labor Day telethon, France's favorite comedian swayed, trying to dodge the cameraman, then introduced a 'family member' as 'the illiterate fag,' then remembered, seemingly, that he was on live TV... stopped himself and tried to move on."
He also raised $63 million for muscular dystrophy, proving good and bad can exist in the same skull. Lewis has apologized. (TMZ)
