Eagle Ray Jumps Out of Water and Kills Woman

Thursday, March 20th, 2008

A 55 year old Michigan woman was on a Florida boat with her family when an eagle ray jumped out of the water and struck her.  Reports indicated the woman fell backwards, striking her head, which caused a severe head trauma and her death.

Early reports on this developing story indicated that the Eagle Ray’s defensive barb was lodged into the woman’s neck.  However, these reports are unfounded.

The woman, whose name has not been released, apparently died before help could arrive.  Other occupants of the boat include her mother, father, and sister.

According to experts, it is quite natural for eagle ray’s to launch themselves out of the water.  They do so to flee a predator or to dislodge parasites.  It’s not clear whether the boat could have startled the eagle ray and caused it to go airborne.

Wednesday, March 19th, 2008

An Elyria Ohio woman, Victoria Landis,  believes the bag of frozen fish sticks she bought was a sign from above.

“I went to cook them one day and I poured them out into the pan and there were three kind of fused together in a way that made three mini crosses, and the way they fell on the pan it looked just like the hill where Jesus was crucified,” she said.

Victoria Landis did not have the heart to cook the fish sticks, so she placed them back into the bag and put them into the freezer.  Even though this woman did not have the heart to bake the fish sticks, she has found enough courage to auction them off on eBay.

Pennsylvania DOT Sign Advertises Live Nudes off I-78

Sunday, March 16th, 2008

Taxpayers know all too well that their tax dollars get wasted in a variety of ways.  But using taxpayer owned equipment to advertise a strip club has to be a first.

A temporary electronic PennDOT sign was apparently tampered with and was programmed to visually display “Live Nudes Exit 45.”  The sign sat on I-78 and exit 45 is for Route 863 in Lehigh County, Pennsylvania.

A motorist headed to work saw the sign in the eastbound shoulder.  He indicated it took him a minute or two to comprehend what he had just seen.  At that point he called a friend, and his friend urged him to double-back and get a picture of the road sign.  That’s exactly what he did.
