| May The Force Be With You - If You Are Over 18.. Posted: 22 Dec 2008 05:05 AM CST
A Star Wars lightsaber has been banned by bankrupt retailer Woolworths because idiotic bosses fear it could be mistaken for a gun! Despite being in the midst of last Christmas ever, the chiefs at the Midlands branch are restricting the sale of lightsabers to anyone under the age of 18. We are imagining now, the look on the face of a shop owner when told to empty the cash till with a lightsaber glowing in front of them..not the scariest robbery attempt of all time. Wonder how many will be glowing in the audience in the O2, brandished by dangerous 9 year olds? Related Posts |

| Introducing The World’s Most Unlikey Terrorist Posted: 22 Dec 2008 04:26 AM CST
Dave Vaughan, AKA, PC Konk the Clown stopped as a suspected terrorist - wearing flashing police helmet and red nose..Most terrorists aiming to wreak havoc in mid-air will spend months if not years planning how to sneak on board in the least noticeable way possible, fake passports and very low key outfits to help blend in. PC Konk the Clown didn’t do a very good job of it. Mr Vaughan, had been booked by Variety Club Midlands to perform for disadvantaged children on a one-hour circular flight known as the Search for Santa. So he went in full costume, complete with his flashing helmet, red nose and size 48 boots. Not surprisingly, he set off the alarm and guards forced him to strip down to his shorts and T-shirt. He was ordered to hand over his plastic handcuffs that he bought from the Early Learning Centre. “I showed them my police clown identity card, which had my picture next to my credentials as a member of the Criminal Insane Department, but I don’t think that really helped.” A Birmingham International Airport airport spokesman said: ‘PC Konk certainly did a great job of keeping everyone at the airport entertained. However, he was required to give in his handcuffs in line with national security regulations.” Related Posts |
