Ice Cream With a “Personal Touch”

The folks at PETA–People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals–believe that using milk from cows to make anything–including good old ice cream–is just down right cruel. Give me a break here people. There are two things that cows are good for–MILK and MEAT. Okay, maybe there’s one more thing: pointing them out to your children when taking a long road trip. I really can’t think of anything else.

In any case, the freaks at PETA have sent a letter to the co-founders of Ben & Jerry’s Ice Cream, urging them to replace cow’s milk used in their product with human milk. Apparently, they got the idea from some restaurant owner in Switzerland who has started using human milk as a substitute for cow’s milk–I wonder if his customers are aware of this?

Father shares beer with sons, ages 2 and 4

Yesterday was my daughter’s birthday. She is now 4 years old–still not old enough to even consider drinking anything other than juice, water, milk, and maybe the occasional sip of dad’s Diet Coke. I received an interesting story about a real winner who wanted to–and actually DID–buy his kids–ages 2 and 4–some beer.

FOND DU LAC, Wis. (AP) A father who bought a beer for his 4-year-old son at the Fond du Lac County Fair and shared it with the boy’s 2-year-old sibling is cited after becoming belligerent when he was approached by police.

A woman working at a beer tent last July told an officer she thought the man was joking when he asked for two beers — one for him and another for his 4-year-old son.

When he was questioned by an officer, he told him it’s legal for underage children to drink in Wisconsin, as long as they’re with their parents. The officer countered that the boys weren’t old enough to know what they were drinking.

A police report says the man began yelling and swearing and was kicked off the fairgrounds.

The Fond du Lac County district attorney recently requested that the man be cited for disorderly conduct.

Assault With An 8-Inch Sausage

(from thesmokinggun.com)

Wielding an eight-inch sausage, Antonio Vasquez, 21, allegedly broke into a Fresno home Saturday morning, stole $900, and assaulted one resident with the pork weapon and tossed seasoning into another victim’s face. The bizarre crime is detailed in a Fresno County Sheriff’s Department report, the funniest document you’ll read this month.

According to investigators, Vasquez robbed the home of a group of farmworkers, two of whom were assaulted during the 8 AM confrontation. Santiago Cabrera told deputies that he was sleeping on the home’s front porch when he “felt something hit him in the face,” the report notes. Struggling to awake, Cabrera found “an unknown male bent over him. The male continued to strike him in the face and head area with a sausage.” Santiago, deputies reported, “said the sausage was about 8″ long.”

Another resident, Cesar Macias, recalled that he was sleeping on a futon in the family room when the intruder threw Pappy’s seasoning in his face. The Fresno-based Pappy’s specializes in “high quality all purpose spice blends, sauces and marinades,” according to its web site. Before fleeing the residence, Vasquez, for some reason, removed his shorts, which contained his driver’s license, credit cards, school IDs, and cell phone.

He ran into a nearby orange orchard, but was soon apprehended by a deputy who noted that the suspect was wearing “a white sleeveless tee shirt and green boxers.” However, cops were unable to recover Vasquez’s principal weapon. “I asked Santiago where the sausage was,” Deputy George Ozburn wrote, “he advised his dog ate it.” Facing a felony robbery charge, Vasquez in being held in lieu of $100,000 bail.

You Can’t Make This Stuff Up

The Wisconsin Hospital Association has “suggested” that Wisconsin hospitals not bill patients or insurance companies for certain mistakes made to patients while in treatment. If I were a patient and somebody left a medical instrument in my body, I would sue the pants off them.
