Greetings fellow Bizarros:

Do you remember the scene in the movie 'Fight Club' where the character Tyler Durden shoots himself in the mouth and survives? I always thought something like that happening was complete bullshit. That is until I read this story.

If this isn't an effective anti-drug lesson, nothing is. It seems a Florida teen who ate mushrooms and drank a tea made from mushrooms shot himself in the forehead so he could wake up from a nightmare he said he was having while awake.

17-year-old Steve Tilbury had consumed the mushrooms with some friends and he passed out after they had left his house. Tilbury later told investigators that when he woke up he felt like it wasn't real. Like he was awake in a bad nightmare and could not escape from his house.

So he made a decision only someone tripping balls would likely make, he got his father's .22-caliber rifle, went back to his own bedroom, and fired it into his own forehead.

Realizing that didn't do the trick, he wrapped a bandage around his head and walked outside where he asked a passerby to drive him to the hospital.

A deputy asked Tilbury if he wanted to kill himself and he said, "No, I just wanted to wake up from the bad nightmare. I am happy and I love my life."

Bizarrely,
Lewis

*-- Police: Suspect was upset by lack of sex --*
PALM BAY, Fla. - Police in Florida said a man arrested on robbery charges told them he was upset because his fiancee refused to have sex with him. Palm Bay police said James Seehaus, 25, used a white cloth to make his BB gun appear to be a real gun when he robbed a 7-Eleven store in Palm Bay June 28, Florida Today reported Wednesday. Seehaus was pulled over by a police officer responding to the robbery and the officer discovered the BB gun in the suspect's car and $55 in his wallet. Seehaus, who was identified as the robber by the store's clerk and another witness, said the $55 belonged to the convenience store, police said. Seehaus, who was charged with armed robbery and theft, told police he committed the crime because he was upset about his fiancee's refusal to have sex with him and he needed to buy car insurance.

*-- Man blames caffeine for groping --*
SEATTLE - A Washington state school bus driver said at his sentencing hearing he groped teenage girls and women because he had consumed too much caffeine. Kenneth Sands, 51, who was charged with five counts of fourth-degree assault, told the judge at his Tuesday sentencing he had consumed too much caffeine prior to the events of Oct. 18, KOMO-TV, Seattle, reported Thursday. "That caused a psychotic episode," Sands said. "My son-in-law and daughter had never seen that kind of behavior from myself." The Lewis County sheriff's office said Sands, a driver for the Rainier School District, was attending a volleyball game in Onalaska Oct. 18 as a spectator, not a driver, when he allegedly touched a 46-year-old woman's breasts three times and grabbed her buttocks when she tried to get away from him. He also allegedly grabbed a 15-year-old girl's buttocks outside of a bus after the game and slapped a 16-year-old girl's behind as she was boarding the vehicle. The sheriff's office said Sands got onto the school bus and touched a girl in an inappropriate manner before being kicked off by the driver. Sands was sentenced to 30 days in jail for each count.

*-- READER COMMENTS --*
My belief- UFO's are of this world, not extraterrestrial, they are of this planet. It all started in Arizona- dry, caves. ALL the dinosaurs were not wiped out. Some were able to survive and went underground and evolved. If you look at most pix- large eyes, lizard-like appearance...just think about it for a minute or so..... Would this be any less believable than some race a millennium away just stopping by for a probe or two? -Painindnek
[You could be right. The Nazis were experimenting with anti-gravity all the way back in the 40s. And as we all know, the United States recruited most of their best scientists after the war.]

Stan Nguyen is no fool. There's AC in jail and it's free. With any luck (for Mr. Nguyen), since he didn't actually hurt the AC repair man, he'll get a very light sentence and can spend the summer in jail, getting out as the weather gets cooler. I wonder if his heat works.
[Plus, there is the gourmet cuisine and all the free sex.]

Maybe evolution is a farce and humans are the aliens to this earth. Seems like it. We are the only species that seems to destroy the earth rather than live in harmony with it. Anyway, love bizarre news. You choose some truly telling news stories that show just how silly humans are and I'm one of them. -catt
[Is this L. Ron Hubbard?]
