I like weird news and Reuters and Yahoo! have plenty of it. So, I've started this topic where you can post links to weird, bizarre, wacko reports. Here are two for today:

Ya know, DK, I always check out the weird and wacky news listed by Yahoo every morning and I think hmm.gif maybe I should post this. Then I think, naaah maybe not. No one will be interested. Guess I've been mistaken, huh? Then again, my brain is spinning around so fast these days ...

The nacho cheese guy worries me. At a game a while back my husband ordered the nachos. He unfortunately got bumped into and in the process, the cheese left a chemical burn on his hand. Not a burn from being too hot, a chemical burn. After that, we refuse to buy anything with the nacho cheese. What would that do to the poor man's naked body? I shudder to think.

As for the Czech story, I'll bet that guy never violated the law again!

It's tough being a druid nowadays! And yes, Veca, swords have been given names throughout history (example, Excalibur, King Arthur's sword.)
