British Gov. Seeking Mud Wrestlers for Good Clean Fun

Nottingham, UK - A Government job center is looking for a few nice girls to put on bikinis and wrestle in the mud. The job pays £10 an hour and free transportation is available.

Mind you it isn't anything dirty, just good clean mud wrestling. Employers insist that the job is 'not porn' or 'adult work', but involves 'light-hearted mud-wrestling' for a website. The advertisement appeared on a DirectGov website asking for women who are "bubbly and confident" to mud wrestle for a pay-per-view website.

Claire Hunter, 27, of Nottinghamshire, said: 'I think this is demeaning.

'If I wanted to star in a seedy per-per-view mud wrestling contest I would expect a lot more than £10 or £15-an-hour."

Phantasia Leisure, the company running the ad, assures applicants that the pay does meet the countries minimum wage requirements and ads that a tax credit may be available. The company also runs casinos, wedding discos, singers, bands, novelty acts, fairground rides, and a limo service. Read all about it

It's Africa, of Course There's an Elephant in the Jacuzzi!

It was late in the evening and all the bustle had calmed as guests were turning in for the night. One guest was surprised by noise on her patio, going to investigate she found an elephant drinking from the jacuzzi. Fortunately our vacationer had camcorder in hand. She got several minutes of the precarious pachyderm, now named "Troublesome," sucking the tub dry, that's right dry.

Actually that very jacuzzi had been drained several times in the weeks proceeding Troublesomes big debut. Plumbers had been called more than once to resolve the issue only to leave puzzled when no leak could be found.

Susan Potgieter The Lodges owner said: "When I first saw the photograph of her drinking I couldn't believe it. And then it dawned on me of course an elephant was drinking it.

"It was something of a relief because we had been trying to work out why the pool had been draining so quickly for weeks but couldn't find a leak anywhere.

"When it was empty in the morning we first called a plumber, but they could not work out why it was draining either." Read all about it

State of California to Run Ads on Citizens Cars

California - In a page straight from pulp science fiction, state legislators are considering a bill that would utilize digital technology to run advertising on licence plates. The idea is to replace the old school licence plates with modern digital ones. The new plates would display a registration number while the vehicle was moving but run ads when the vehicle stops for more than four seconds.

The author of SB1453 says California would be the first state to implement such technology if it decides to adopt the plates on a large scale. Supporters say license-plate advertising could generate much-needed revenue in the state which is facing a $19 billion deficit. Read all about it

Pauls Dead, No Wait He's Not, No Wait ...

At a news conference in 1969 Paul McCartney announced that the rumors of his death had been "greatly exaggerated," but had they been? Joel Gilbert of Highway 61 Productions has another theory. On July 5th of 2005 Highway 61, a company that specializes in Bob Dylan documentaries, received a set disks recorded by the late George Harrison. On the disks Harrison claims that Paul McCartney did in fact die in a traffic accident on November 9th of 1966.

As the story goes Paul and John Lennon had a disagreement causing McCartney to storm from the studio. While driving along in a tither he picked up a female hitchhiker. As the two proceeded on their way the girl recognized Paul and threw herself on him in a dazzle of hugs and kisses, causing him to crash the car. Paul died.

Later the remaining Beatles were contacted by MI5 and asked to come to the scene of the crash. MI5, acting on the idea that Paul's death would lead to wide spread suicide among British youth, hatched the plan to replace McCartney with known look-alike William Campbell.

The young ladies identity was also changed and she was ushered into a life of mystery in order to protect the secret of Paul's death. Many years later the woman, now called Heather Mills, contacted William Campbell, AKA Paul McCartney, threatening to go public with the story unless he married her, so he did. Read all about it

Constable Charanjit Meharu was among those investigating the crime. Meharu is a Native American who obviously does not look like he speaks french, but he does. In fact the constable is fluent in seven languages. Meharu listened closely as the woman detailed her crime.

A Coke and a Smile

Coca-Cola plus Mestos equals a fizzy fountain. Students at China's Chenchung University took advantage of this fact to win a place in history via Guinness World Records. 2,175 students from the University, dressed in raincoats, assembled on the schools basketball court and waited patiently while a countdown timed the event. When the buzzer sounded they dropped the candies into their sodas filling the air with thousands of sticky geysers. The previous record of 1,911 simultaneous geysers was set by students of the School of Business Administration in Turiba, Latvia, in 2008.

Zhang Bofa, vice dean of the university's tourism school, said a lot of preparation went into the successful record bid.

"We tested two ways of putting in the mint candies. One was to drop them through paper pipes and the other was to use skewers. After numerous tests, we chose the latter," he said.

"We ordered 2,450 packs of sweets from a local supermarket, and the day before the event, we had to unwrap them all, put them on skewers and then wrap them again to stop them melting in the heat."

Saudi Arabia Wants to put Breast Milk on the Menu

Saudi Clerics say it's indecent for women to spend time alone with men they are not related to. Which is problematic for women who work. The solution, breast milk for everybody.

Some supporters of the plan say it should be pumped into a glass and consumed from there. Other experts in Islamic law say that for decency sake the milk must be suckled directly from the breast. The debate rages on, but one thing the men are not disputing is that drinking from a woman's breast is a good idea. Read all about it
