Bizarre News - December 5, 2015
Greetings fellow Bizarros:
We all need that little spark in our relationships. Some couples like to tie each other up. Some role play. Some swing with other couples. I won't tell you what my wife and I like to do, but I'm sure a lot of my readers have some interesting personal interests.
So as far as kinks go, the cross-dressing part of today's story doesn't bury the bizarre meter. The chaining up part is a little confusing.
Police have cited a man for disorderly conduct for allegedly chaining himself inside his car while parked outside a Pennsylvania drug store and dressed as a woman.
Police were called to a Walgreen's store about 11:20 p.m. when someone reported seeing the 28-year-old man chained inside the car.
When police arrived, the man told them he had restrained himself because he had come to buy his wife a drink at the store, but found it difficult to work up the courage to enter the store dressed as a woman. A police report says the suspect chained himself "to build himself up to going into the store dressed like a woman."
The man his charged with disorderly conduct "for causing a public alarm."
Bizarrely,
Lewis

*-- Florida woman's mystery illness traced to moldy breast implants --*
SHALIMAR, Fla. - A Florida woman misdiagnosed with lupus, arthritis and thyroid problems said a doctor found the true cause of her illness: moldy breast implants. Anne Ziegenhorn of Shalimar said she started experiencing symptoms including weight gain, vision loss and burning pain in 2011 and doctors offered a series of diagnoses including lupus, arthritis and thyroid problems -- all of which were later proven false. "I felt like that was it, I was gonna die, and the doctors were gonna let me die," Ziegenhorn told WEAR-TV. "After going through what I've gone through -- hundreds and thousands of dollars in medical bills, I've lost my career. It was taxing on our marriage," she told WPSD-TV. Dr. Susan Kolb, author of "The Naked Truth About Breast Implants," gave Ziegenhorn a different diagnosis that was later proven true: Her saline breast implants, which she obtained in 1998 and are in silicone shells, were covered in mold. "Silicone sickness in and of itself is one entity. And then you add the mold to it that we had, and then you've got two illnesses going on," Ziegenhorn said. Kolb said she has seen numerous cases of moldy implants, which often result from defective valves. "My experience in doing this for 30 years is that eventually everybody will become ill from their breast implants, unless they die sooner from something else," Kolb said. The doctor, who said she has implants herself, recommended women replace their implants every eight to 15 years for safety.
*-- Mauritanian president may have ended boring soccer match --*
KSAR, Mauritania - A championship soccer match in Mauritania ended early, some say because the country's president deemed the game too boring. Regulation of the Mauritanian Super Cup championship game prematurely ended in the 63rd minute after President Mohamed Ould Abdel Aziz reportedly sent the game to penalty shootouts. The match between FC Tevragh-Zeina and ACS Ksar was tied 1-1 when Aziz was said to have grown frustrated with the pace of the game and ordered that it be sent to a tie-breaker early. Tevragh-Zenia was awarded the championship after the highly controversial decision to go to penalty kicks early. As speculation began to swirl around the bizarre ending, Mauritanian soccer federation president Ahmed Ould Abderhamane denied Aziz's involvement in the decision in a written statement. "I deny in the strongest terms the intervention of the president of the republic," he wrote. "The decision was made due to organisational issues in accordance with the presidents and the coaches of the two teams."

About that woman, Brittany Leith, who had to go back for her purse, even though doing so put her in harm's way and at risk of being injured or killed: While this may not always apply to every person or situation, I think that what it comes down to is that people are incapable of quitting while they are ahead. They always have to try for that little bit more. -David

Yeah, but what if it was a Louis Vuitton?]
Hi Lewis, I sympathize with the guy in the domestic violence/spider story; I am the world's biggest sissy (according to my brothers) about spiders. But my "badass" brothers would be "girly screaming," too, if they had to deal with an AUSTRALIAN spider, some of which are big enough to catch and eat birds. That is a HUGE spider, and you can bet I would keep a two by four close at hand if I ever went to Australia.

With fauna like that it should be no mystery why Australians stay drunk most of the time.]
