When Pigott, 38, mixed a product called Real Kill Indoor Fogger with WD-40, it became a "flame-thrower" and melted the home's vinyl siding, according to a police incident report."" |

Quote : | "A Chinese man had to have his contact lenses surgically removed after he did not take them out for a year.
Liu, 40, started to wear contact lenses a year ago and never took them out because he found it difficult.
"I only have some eye drops for when they feel uncomfortable," he told Chutian City News.
Liu recently felt his eyesight was getting worse, so he bought another pair of lenses and wore them on top of the old ones.
But when his eyesight still didn't improve, he took another startling decision.
"I put a pair of used disposal contact lenses over the other two pairs in my eyes. By then, I was wearing three pairs of lenses," he said.
By the next day, Liu's eyes had reacted badly to his DIY eyecare and he finally sought medical attention.
A doctor was shocked to find the first lenses had grown into his eyes and surgery was needed to take them out." |

Quote : | "Anni Sheriffius said she was trying to wash off what she thought was dirt on her dog Jasmine’s ear when the ear fell off.
Sheriffius rushed her dog to the veterinarian to learn that the dog’s ear had been cut off by a dog groomer and super-glued back on.
“And I saw the ear float away, and it freaked me out,” Sheriffius said." |
I admit it, I laughed for a good 5 minutes.
Quote : | "Jasimine, a shi tzu, had to undergo treatment for an infection.
Sheriffius said she still has the ear in a plastic bag, and has been crying for weeks at the thought of someone hurting her dog.
Pierce County sheriff’s investigators are looking into possible criminal charges against the unlicensed dog groomer.
“Once they tried to hide it and glued the ear back on, that’s not good for the dog. There are all kinds of things that can happen, infection, it's cruelty to animals,” Det. Ed Troyer said.
The shop where Jasmine was injured, J’Raes Pet Grooming, appears to have shut down, KIRO 7 Eyewitness News reported.
“I’d like her never, ever to touch another dog, that’s what I’d like to see,” Sheriffius said." |
There are two morals to this story.
The first is: Don't take your dog to an unlicensed dog groomer or at least don't be shocked when something bad (like a cut off ear) happens because it is pretty much your fault.
The second is: If you decide to go into business as an unlicensed dog groomer then don't be shocked when something bad (like a cut off ear) happens because it is pretty much your fault.2/16/2007 9:14:05 AM |

Quote : | "A man seriously injured himself and caused a minor power outage in Allston on Sunday after attempting to remove a knife embedded in an electric cable on Dustin Street.
According to a police report, officers received a call at 10:01 a.m. of a possible electric shock situation near the corner of Dustin and Cambridge streets. On arrival, the victim told officers that an explosion took place shortly after he tried to pull the knife out of the cable, causing burns to his head, arms and torso. Passers-by dialed 911 on his behalf after seeing the victim stumble down the street in obvious distress.
The subsequent outage affected about 2,100 customers in the surrounding neighborhood. NSTAR spokesman Caroline Allen said that all customers were back online by 11:30 a.m.
Both police and NSTAR representatives doubt that the victim simply found the knife already embedded in the cable. They suspect he may have put it there himself.
“If a knife had been previously placed in the cable as the victim alleges, the outage would have happened earlier,” said Allen. “But the call for the outage came in at virtually the same time as the call to 911.” It is unclear whether the victim may have been trying to steal copper wire, or whether it was possibly a drunken prank. Police are investigating.
The victim was transported to Brigham and Women’s Hospital shortly after the incident and is currently listed in serious condition." |

The suspect was taken to a hospital, where he died from head injuries. Five passengers who were jostled when the bus slammed on its brakes were also examined at the hospital.

Posted: May. 20 9:55 p.m. Updated: May. 20 9:56 p.m.
SAN JOSE, Calif. — It was a big enough bummer for Kenneth Affolter when he was sentenced to more than five years in prison for making pot-laced treats and soft drinks. Now he faces the wrath of a candy giant.
The Hershey Co. has sued Affolter, 40, for giving his marijuana goodies names like Stoney Rancher, Rasta Reese's and Keef Kat. Each came in packaging similar to Hershey's Jolly Rancher, Reese's Peanut Butter Cups and Kit Kat candies, according to the Drug Enforcement Administration.
Hershey's suit, filed earlier this month in U.S. District Court in San Jose, accuses Affolter of trademark infringement, trademark dilution and unfair competition. The company is seeking $100,000 in damages.
Papers were served on Affolter on Tuesday while he was in a county jail awaiting transfer to state prison.
Affolter's lawyer, David M. Michael, said he was negotiating with Hershey.

Janesville police records indicate that Jason Stacy, 29, was seen speeding and driving erratically downtown shortly after 1 a.m.
According to an analysis of police records by WISC-TV in Madison, Stacy was stopped and given a Breathalyzer test that indicated a blood-alcohol level of 0.12 percent. The legal limit in Wisconsin is 0.08.
Stacy was ticketed for imprudent speed and failing to stay in the center of his lane. The officer didn't arrest Stacy but did prevent him from driving until a friend picked him up, the television station reported.
Around 3:45 a.m., Stacy's car hit a tree and burst into flames, deputies said. Stacy, who was alone and not wearing a seatbelt, was found about 50 feet away.
Janesville police declined to comment. The Rock County Sheriff's Department said it is investigating." |
