Greetings fellow Bizarros:


Christmas just wouldn't be the same without a few assault stories. My favorite was several years ago when a man who got into an argument with a woman who cut in front of him in line while shopping on Christmas Eve was assaulted by the woman's boyfriend and three of his friends in the parking lot. But these stores are almost as good.

A dispute over a parking spot resulted in one man being stabbed with an ice pick in Springfield, Missouri.

The incident occurred in the parking lot of Chili's Grill and Bar, of all places. A police spokesman said the alleged stabber, an 18-year-old woman, was angry because she believed another motorist took her parking space. She allegedly used an ice pick to stab him multiple times.

The victim was taken to a hospital to be treated for non-life-threatening injuries.

The other incident occurred right next door to us in Joliet, Illinois. A Joliet man was stabbed in the head with a screwdriver by the husband of a woman with whom he was speaking with at a local bar, police said.

The 44-year-old man, who was not identified, sustained non-life threatening injuries.

The man was stabbed at about 2:05 a.m. early Sunday after he dropped the woman off at an intersection. The man told police that the woman's husband stabbed him after he dropped the woman off, police said.

Hmmm...strange man drops a woman off at an intersection in the middle of the night? I think there's a name for that.

Bizarrely,
Lewis

*-- Sexy fired worker blasts court ruling --*

FORT DODGE, Iowa - An Iowa woman fired for being "irresistible" to her boss says a court decision against her was unfair. Melissa Nelson told CNN, "The last couple of days have just been an emotional roller coaster. I'm trying to stay strong. It's tough. I don't think it's fair. I don't think it's right." An Iowa Supreme Court judge said the allegations do not amount to sex discrimination. Dentist James Knight, whose business is in Fort Dodge, fired dental assistant Nelson, an employee of 10 years, because she presented too much of a distraction and jeopardized his relationship with his wife, CNN reported Sunday. The Supreme Court affirmed a lower court's ruling that the employment termination did not amount to sex discrimination under the state's civil rights act. Knight's wife discovered in 2009 that Knight and Nelson were sending text messages to each other and demanded her husband fire Nelson, which he did in 2010, CNN reported. Knight told Nelson near the end of her employment that her clothing was "distracting," but Nelson said she wore scrubs at work, CNN reported. The court's decision said Knight told Nelson "if she saw his pants bulging, she would know her clothing was too revealing," and that Knight said in reply to Nelson's alleged comment about her infrequent sex life, "That's like having a Lamborghini in the garage and never driving it." In siding with Knight, Iowa Supreme Court Justice Edward M. Mansfield wrote on behalf of the court, "The issue before us is not whether a jury could find that Dr. Knight treated Nelson badly. We are asked to decide only if a genuine fact issue exists as to whether Dr. Knight engaged in unlawful gender discrimination when he fired Nelson at the request of his wife."


*-- Swedish town buys strip club --*

BARNARP, Sweden - Residents of Barnarp, Sweden, had been trying for years to close a local strip club without success, so they bought it, village officials said. The Cafe Musfaalan -- Mousetrap Cafe -- had been a source of noise, littering and harassment complaints since it opened, The Local.se reported. The last straw was the decision last month by the strip club's owners to change the name to Heaven "where we knead the buns together." "It has been a great inconvenience for residents in Barnarp," Commissioner Mats Green said. The community Friday ponied up 3 million Swedish kronor ($470,000) to buy the property so it could evict the tenants. No word on what the property will be used for next.
