Greetings fellow Bizarros:

You're afraid of heights so you decide to face your fears by skydiving. Makes a kind of sense. In your underwear. Whaa?

On November 17 Jennifer Hoffman and Marisa Gallegos, founders of Esme & Eve Photography, along with five other brave women, plan to jump from an airplane near Lake Elsinore, California, wearing nothing but parachutes and their lingerie. The jump is part of Esme & Eve's "Be Bold. Take the Leap" initiative, in which they urge women "to face their fears, take a risk and push against whatever is holding them back from carrying out their dreams."

This will be the second skydive Hoffman and Gallegos are taking together, and this time around, they wanted to do it on a larger scale by inviting others to join. Gallegos admitted, however, that the idea to skydive in nothing but their skivvies was never part of their original plan.

When the pair arrived at the skydive location for their first jump last May, it was more than 100 degrees outside. Neither of the women was particularly excited about putting on the heavy, bulky jumpsuits, so they decided to go without.

"When we landed, it just hit us how powerful the experience was," Gallegos said. "We needed to come back and do it in a big way with a bunch of other women that have all faced certain fears and insecurities and moved past them. It's all about empowering them. Life is about evolving and moving past things so we can move forward."

They thought it was best to do the jump in their underwear because "it was more about baring your soul, and being OK with it, and not being ashamed," Hoffman said.

And it certainly doesn't hurt that both women are hot.

Bizarrely,
Lewis

*-- Tattoo parlor tiles floor with pennies --*
PITTSBURGH - The owner of a Pittsburgh tattoo parlor said she found covering her shop's floor with pennies was cheaper than buying tile. Mel Angst, owner of the Artisan tattoo shop, said she and a team of helpers spent about 300 hours gluing 250,000 pennies to the floor of her store, the New York Daily News reported Thursday. "Amazingly enough, we found it's a lot cheaper to just glue money to your floor than to actually buy tile. It's about $3 a square foot," Angst said. Angst said anyone who spent at least 30 hours helping with the floor will receive a complimentary Abraham Lincoln penny tattoo. "Some days it was just me. I think the most [people helping] we ever had was seven," Angst said. "But on average, three or four people a day for about 10 to 16 hours a day, for about three weeks straight, gluing these down."


* Suspected gang member arrested over tattoo *
MINNEAPOLIS - Police in Minnesota said a suspected gang member was arrested over tattoo of a pig in a police uniform being shot. Hennepin County prosecutors said Antonio Jenkins Jr. posted a picture on Facebook of a tattoo on his right bicep depicting a pig in the uniform of Minneapolis police Officer Jeffrey Seidel being shot through the head by a person, the St. Paul Pioneer Press reported Friday. Jenkins, a suspected member of the Bloods street gang currently on probation for armed robbery, was arrested Thursday and charged with making a terroristic threat for the benefit of a gang. "It's pretty crude and pretty direct. The officer works in the area. [Jenkins] sent it out on Facebook. That's a lot," Hennepin County Attorney Mike Freeman said. Jenkins allegedly told police the pig was wearing Seidel's uniform because he was angry at the officer over an August 2011 event. The criminal complaint does not describe the incident.

Have You seen this Lewis? "A Polish firm that makes coffins has angered the Catholic church by trying to drum up business with a calendar depicting topless models posing next to its caskets. One image from the 2013 edition of the calendar has a blonde model, wearing only a skimpy thong and with a snake draped around her neck, reclining on a coffin. In another, a woman wearing a crimson corset is depicted pulling out the heart of a man lying on a casket."

I keep getting upset over the Zombie bs.. then I think about Congress and the Senate.. and OK, we do need to be prepared in case these problems spread across the country. oh... wait.. they have... into state legislatures and local governments.. WE ARE DOOMED!! -Corky
[To equate politicians with zombies is an insult to zombies.]

With more and more folks dependant on the gov for their support its getting close to the magic mumber where there isn't enough people working to pay for the damn dems pets. Looks like we are all headed for slavery. -Biopeacock
[The one good part about being a slave is the job security.]

Lewis, The craziest thing about any zombie event is the IRS. I'm sure you've heard that the IRS has procedures in place to collect taxes after a nuclear war. The IRS has covered many, many apocalyptic scenarios. There are procedures for determining if a "zombie" is required to pay taxes, how much tax is owed and procedures for collecting those taxes. It is comforting to know that no matter what happens, Uncle Sam will always be there, funded off the backs of taxpayers (even if they be zombies). -David
