WEIRD SIDE E-ZINE
Issue #52
<><><><><><><><><><>
EDITORS NOTE
<><><><><><><><><><>
Dear subscribers,
Welcome again to your favorite E-zine.
A few people where upset about the Bonsai Kitten web site
that was featured in last issue.
I would like to make this clear; the Bonsai Kitten web site
was a HOAX! There where no animals injured. I'm sorry if
I offended some of you, it was not my intention.
I only wanted to point your attention to this site, because I
found it rather "weird", so it qualified for this newsletter.
After all, if I don't mention the weird, who else will? :-)
So do NOT harm your pets, they deserve to be treated
with all your respect.
Thanks for being here again! Enjoy the read!
Dirk Dupon, your editor

NEW SITES

* The Museum of Hoaxes
A hoax is a deceptive act or scheme that plays upon the
credulity of others. Yes, people have been fooled since
ages! This database covers hoaxes about "The Piltdown
Man", the "Swiss Spaghetti Harvest", and stories about
lost cities and ghosts:

* The Gnarliest Torture Devices of All Time
What was the worst aspect of life during the European middle
ages? Heinous personal hygiene? No. Disease and famine?
Hardly. The worst thing about medieval life was the unwavering
evil of the Christian "justice" system and the tools of torture they
employed. Go see the top 20 at:

* The Force of Darkness
Talking about torture, if you've ever considered joining the
"Forces of Darkness", this is your guide. Evil always needs
more agents for its unholy army of the night, and by joining
you can rest assured that your remaining years will be spent
pursuing the 'good' things of life: lust, greed, debauchery,
the slaughter of hapless innocents, etc...

Handcuffs are primarily used to capture criminals, but they

WEIRD NEWS
-------------------------------------------------------------
Two 5-year-old girls have been suspended from their
kindergarten class after handling a handgun that one
of the youngsters carried to school in a purse. The
principal said: "I've told the kindergarten teachers: No
more purses. You hate to do that, but it's just another
measure. We can't always control what the children
bring in." (St. Paul Pioneer Press)
Amsterdam, Netherlands. Airport authorities found a dead
body of a Russian man who had fled the country to evade
rape charges. Because of the condition of the body, police
theorizes he try to stow-away in the jumbo-jet's wheel-well,
froze to death during the flight and fell out when the wheel
hatch opened just prior to landing. During their investigation
of the incident, they checked out the airplane and discovered
a second body in one of the wheel-wells. This second man
was also wanted on rape charges.
A couple from Cambridge is putting their son through MIT
and their daughter through the University of California by
gathering cans in the back alleys of L.A. neighborhoods.
"We're working 365 days a year," says the dad. "There's
no rest." For more than a decade, he and his wife have
collected about 45,000 cans a month, earning them on
average between $1,400 and $1,600. (Boston Globe)
White Plains, NY. An unusual property scam has landed a
former tenant in jail. The man, who had been evicted from
the rental home for failing to pay rent, posed as the home's
owner and "sold" it to an unsuspecting couple. Since he
was away on business, the house's real owner didn't make
the discovery until nearly a month later. The former tenant
collected some $30,000 from the couple he duped into
buying it. As it turns out, the bogus landlord has a history
of grand larceny ...having been recently released from prison
for a similar scheme. The home's "new owners" were given
a week to move by the man who really owns the house.

FAMOUS QUOTES
------------------------------------------------------------
"No, the best way to prepare is to write programs, and to
study great programs that other people have written. In my
case, I went to the garbage cans at the Computer Science
Center and I fished out listings of their operating system."
- Bill Gates
"Programming today is a race between software engineers
striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs,
and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots.
So far, the Universe is winning."
- Rich Cook
"I went to a job interview the other day, the guy asked if I
had any questions. I said yes, just one, if you're in a
car traveling at the speed of light and you turn your
headlights on, does anything happen? He said he couldn't
answer that. I told him sorry, but I couldn't work for him
then."
- Steven Wright

USER TIP

How to save email from Outlook or Outlook Express into a
Word document.
If you received an email and have tried copying it into Word
and the margins are all screwy, try this:
Open your email in either Outlook or Outlook Express and
click on the File menu and select "Save As". Choose the
location where you want to save it and where it says "Save
as Type", select "text only (*.txt)" and give it the name of your
choice.
Now, open MS Word, select"Open" and where it says "Files of
Type", select "text files (*.txt) and browse to the location where
you have saved this file. Once you have it opened, hit Ctrl+A
to select all the text (after deleting any parts you don't want to
keep).
Next, go to your formatting toolbar at the top and you will see a
white box that says "Plain Text". Drop this down and select
"Normal". Now the email will have all of your default paragraph
styles and font styles. Now, go to the File menu again and
select "Save As" and in the dropdown box where it says "Save
As Type", select "Word document (*.doc)" and you're done!
