This Mother-Daughter Prostitute Combo
 Mary Clark Duncan |
 Teresa Diane Duncan |
FORT PAYNE, Ala. — A 62-year-old grandmother arrested in a prostitution sting in Fort Payne has begun serving a two month jail sentence.
Last night, a Fort Payne municipal judge sentenced Mary Clark Duncan to 180 days, but suspended all but 60 days of the jail term.
Duncan’s daughter, Theresa Duncan, was also arrested August first.
The mother and daughter were arrested Aug. 1, after they allegedly both agreed to have sex with an undercover officer for $30 — at $15 each.
Fort Payne Police Chief David Walker said the sting was carried out after his office received several tips that the women were engaged in illicit activities.
“Prostitution is not something we see a lot of in the Fort Payne area,” Walker told The Times-Journal. “However, we are glad that something of this nature was brought to our attention, and were able to put an end to this operation.”
Walker said the majority of the Duncan’s clientele was believed to be Hispanics.
There were two men at the home at the time of the arrest, including Teresa Duncan’s estranged husband and Mary Duncan’s son. No charges have been filed against the men, Walker said, according to The Times-Journal.
Dwarf Glues Penis to Hoover
Sunday, August 19th, 2007A show called Circus Of Horrors lived up to its name when a dwarf accidentally glued his penis to a vacuum cleaner.
Captain Dan The Demon Dwarf was taken to hospital when he became stuck to the the machine after misreading superglue instructions.
The 42-year-old pulls the vacuum across the stage with his manhood at the Edinburgh Fringe production.
Its attachment came loose before a performance so he tried to glue it back on.
He left it to dry for 20 seconds rather than 20 minutes – and it stuck to him when he tried it out.
‘It was the most embarrassing moment of my life,’ he explained. ‘When I got wheeled into a packed A&E on a wheelchair with a Hoover attached to my willie, I just wished the ground could swallow me up.’
Staff at the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh managed to remove the attachment after an hour.
If you got stung in the ass by a bee over the weekend, please read
Monday, August 6th, 2007This weekend I was talking to a friend over the phone. My friend was on his IP-based home phone, I was on my shiny new iPhone. In the middle of our conversation there was a loud static screetch and then an evil sounding belly laugh. The laugh was not my friend’s though. It was a middle aged man who was apparently unaware that two dorks were now listening in on his conversation.
I said “Hello?”, and I heard my friend say “Hello?”, then he hung up. Left on the line were me, a middle aged guy and another person’s voice, which was garbled to the point I could not understand. They could not hear me. The man finished his belly laugh and then said “Yeah, my wife got stung on the ass by a bee!” The other person said something I could not understand and the man followed with another laugh, and then “Yeah, I’m sure I’ll be rubbing that tonight!”. He then exchanged goodbye’s with the other person and hung up.
Can anyone explain this? How was I hearing someone else’s conversation? Who was the woman he was talking to? Does the man’s wife have a nice ass? Was she at a picnic? Did said man rub said woman’s bum?
Now that this unknown man has shared a tiny bit of his life with me, I’m thirsting for more, and I’m willing to pay for it.
If anyone out there knows of a woman who got stung in the ass over the weekend, send them this way. I am offering one pound of delicious silly putty to whoever can point me to the belly laugher and his sore arsed wife. Spread the word, help me finish this story, get some free silly putty.
Marijuana is Cool
Wednesday, July 11th, 2007NYC musician/pot dealer Peter Dagostino (of The Pete Dag Band) is facing 2.5 years in jail after being caught with 88 pounds (!!!) of pot in several fridges in his apartment.
Cops found a list of “do’s and dont’s” from a criminal acquaintance that all respectable dealers should follow. The list included:
Here is the official website of the Pete Dag Band
Here is a video of the Pete Dag Band performing.
Some of the press is reporting that Pete’s recording studio business (www.b-reelstudio.com) may have been a cover for his drug dealing. Whether or not his music is any good or not is not for me to judge (it’s pretty bad), but it seems to me that the guy was taking the music thing pretty seriously. He’s been in the biz for over 30 years, and even once opened for Tiny Tim!!!
Finally, here’s the pic of his fridge:
Bride Attacks Groom with Shoe
Wednesday, July 11th, 2007LONDON - Scottish bride Teresa Brown had been dreaming of the day when she could beat her very own husband.
Police arrested the 33-year-old in the couple’s hotel room in April while her wedding reception continued downstairs, prosecutor Alan Townsend said Tuesday at Aberdeen Sheriff Court. She spent the rest of her wedding weekend in a cell.
The distraught groom, Mark Allerton, 40, staggered to the front desk, clutching a bloody towel to his head, Townsend said.
“He indicated that his wife had struck him over the head with a stiletto heel,” the prosecutor said.
Police found Brown, a real estate agent’s assistant, sitting on the hotel room bed, surrounded by broken glass.
Brown told police she and her husband had “been accusing each other of different things,” the prosecutor said, without going into details. Brown said she hit him on the head because he had taken a hold of her, he added.
Brown’s lawyer Stuart Beveridge said the newlyweds began throwing things at each other after an argument in their room turned physical. He said Brown had been on antidepressants at the time and had been drinking.
‘This incident has not helped’
“She and her husband are still together although this incident has not helped,” he said, adding she is receiving counseling.
Sheriff James Tierney let Brown off on the assault charge with a warning and fined her 250 pounds (US$505) for damaging the hotel room and ordered her to pay the hotel 500 pounds (US$1,150) in compensation.
Hilton Treetops management said in a statement that it was happy the case has closed.
“This has been a very unusual case,” the hotel said.
Man in Wheelchair Stuck in Grill of Tractor Trailer, Takes a 50 MPH Ride
Friday, June 8th, 2007
Benjamin Carpenter, 21, was crossing a Michigan highway in his wheelchair when he became stuck in a semitrailer’s grille and pushed for miles before the unknowing driver was pulled over, police said on Thursday.
Carpenter escaped unharmed, saying, “It was quite a ride,” police said.
Carpenter was attempting to cross on Wednesday when the light turned green and his wheelchair became hooked onto the front grille of the truck, which reached 50 mph during the 4-mile trip down Red Arrow Highway, Michigan State Police Trooper Michael Sinke said witnesses reported.
Carpenter was taken to a hospital as a precaution. He had been secured to his wheelchair by a seat belt.
Witnesses reported that the light turned green, so the truck took off, never seeing the wheelchair in front of him or the fact that it had attached to his front grill. When officers stopped the truck at a private business, Carpenter was in a calm state.
“The man spilled his soda pop, but he wasn’t upset,” said Sgt. Kathy Morton of the Michigan State Police.
Sinke said when he arrived at the scene, the man told him “‘Yeah, I’m fine. I just went for a little ride.’”
“He was surprisingly normal,” Sinke said.
About 4 p.m. Wednesday, a caller told police dispatchers, “You are not going to believe this: There is a semi truck pushing a guy in a wheelchair on Red Arrow Highway,” state police said in a release.
Authorities initially wondered whether the report was a prank call until others called with similar reports.
When the truck finally was stopped, the driver didn’t believe officers until he stepped from his cab and saw for himself.
“When he saw us, he was like, ‘What’s going on?”‘ Morton said.
“The truck driver had no idea,” Sinke said. “[He] was in a state of shock.”
Paw Paw Police Department Office Manager Susan Millek said their department got the initial call around 3:30 p.m. and Sgt. Kirk Goodrich and officer Tim McMeekan responded to the call. McMeekan said the incident was labeled a car pedestrian accident and he was prepared for a scene much worse than what he found.
“We were obviously relieved and shocked to see what happened,” McMeekan said.
He said the family was notified within a few minutes and because the man is an adult, the department called to have someone pick him up.
Officers who responded to the scene said the fact that the man was unharmed made this story that much more unbelievable.
“Just the way he was uninjured. It’s just unbelievable,” Sinke said. “Obviously someone was looking over him yesterday. I could go another hundred years in law enforcement and never see that again.”

New Loch Ness Monster Video Footage
Thursday, May 31st, 2007From CNN:
An amateur scientist has captured what Loch Ness Monster watchers say is among the finest footage ever taken of the elusive mythical creature reputed to swim beneath the waters of Scotland’s most mysterious lake.
“I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw this jet black thing, about 45-feet (15 meters) long, moving fairly fast in the water,” said Gordon Holmes, the 55-year-old a lab technician from Shipley, Yorkshire, who took the video this past Saturday.
He said it moved at about 6 mph (10 kph) and kept a fairly straight course.

Hogzilla II: Boy Shoots 1050 lb Wild Boar
Friday, May 25th, 2007Hogzilla is being made into a horror movie. But the sequel may be even bigger: Meet Monster Pig. An 11-year-old Alabama boy used a pistol to kill a wild hog his father says weighed a staggering 1,051 pounds and measured 9-feet-4 from the tip of its snout to the base of its tail. Think hams as big as car tires.
If the claims are accurate, Jamison Stone’s trophy boar would be bigger than Hogzilla, the famed wild hog that grew to seemingly mythical proportions after being killed in south Georgia in 2004.
