Greetings fellow Bizarros:

There have been a lot of bizarre inventions for the sake of
health and weigh loss. I was watching a program just the
other night which described how radium (yes, the radioactive
element) was widely sold in all sorts of quack health pro-
ducts from the early 20th century, like the 'Revigator'
which was a water jug impregnated with radium in order to
invigorate your drinking water, or a butt plug made with
radium which was supposed to stimulate a man's prostate.
I'm not making this up. They showed actual samples from
the 1920s.

But I recently came across a product that our sister company
PulseTV.com picked up which is a lot safer than a radium
butt plug, and certainly a lot more fun.

It's the Wireless Gaming System. If you have ever seen a Wii
then you know what The Wireless Gaming System is.

This Wireless Gaming System provides exercise while you
play... Your body gets a good workout. It is played with
a console that is plugged into your TV and two wireless
controllers that cause your animated self (essentially a
cartoon that reflects your movements) to swing, punch and
kick in competitive games, like tennis, ping pong and
boxing. Or hone your skills in games like baseball, golf,
bowling or soccer.

So before you blow a couple hundred bucks on a Wii check
out The Wireless Gaming System for $19.99!

FEATURES:
- 40 Games in All (11 sports and 29 arcade).
- Includes Console & 2 Wireless Remotes
- Third Generation Gaming

----------- Police use stun gun on nude jogger -----------

WEST MELBOURNE, Fla. - Florida police said they used a
stun gun to stop an 18-year-old nude jogger who repeated-
ly refused to halt. West Melbourne police said an officer
responded to a report of a man running nude at about
7 a.m. Monday and spotted Zak Anthony King of Palm Bay,
Fla., running along a street wearing nothing but swimming
goggles, the Orlando (Fla.) Sentinel reported Thursday.
The officer pulled up alongside King and repeatedly told
him to stop but King did not comply, police said. The
arrest report said the officer told King he would use his
stun gun if he did not stop running and King was quoted as
replying, "Why would you Tase me?" However, King did not
stop and the officer used the stun gun to stun King, who
fell to the sidewalk. King received treatment for minor
injuries at a hospital and was given a notice to appear
in court on charges of resisting arrest without violence
and indecent exposure.

------------ Grandma's ashes mistakenly sold ------------

FORT WALTON BEACH, Fla. - A Florida woman said a potted
violet containing her grandmother's ashes was mistakenly
sold at a yard sale. Piper Gaffrey of Fort Walton Beach
said her husband was running the sale before she arrived
last week and she soon found the potted violet holding
the ashes of her grandmother, Marjorie Potts Gaffrey, who
died in February at age 99, had been sold, the Northwest
Florida Daily News reported Thursday. Gaffery said she
posted a message on her Facebook page asking whoever
purchased the flower to take good care of it and she was
surprised to receive a message in return from the buyer.
"Fortunately, it was (bought by) someone who knew me,"
Gaffrey said. "I was just glad to have her back."

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> READER COMMENTS <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

Lewis, I've been a subscriber for years, and although I enjoy
the newsletter, I'm going to unsubscribe. I learned to deal
with the sales pitches, but when I want political commentary,
I'll refer to a more reliable source. I want bizarre news,
not your political views. Thanks, though, for the laughs for
all those years! -Nancy
[And once again politics ruins a beautiful relationship.]


Lewis, Per the armored car money, I would return the money
because honesty is a part of my way of life and I answer to
a higher calling, like Hormel Hot Dogs. Just don't ask me
why I use a fake name when posting on the internet. -Rugratz


Having sex in a dumpster isn't the weirdest place I've ever
heard of; my friend claims she once had sex in a graveyard.
-C.J.
[People will do a lot of things to spice up their sex life.
I doubt the 'occupants' minded much. It just doesn't sound
very comfortable to me.]


Hey Lewis. Is Lulu for real? Seriously, a cop who will strip
down and go swimming in a stranger's pool (and drink, no
less!) while on duty is at best brazenly corrupt, and at
worst mentally ill. Either way he shouldn't have gun and
badge. -Evil
[I wouldn't say corrupt, necessarily. Incompetent, certainly.]
