Meet Patrick Tribett. The Ohio man was nabbed yesterday morning for "abusing harmful intoxicants" as he attempted to make a purchase at Bellaire's Dollar General Store. The 41-year-old Tribett, it seems, had been huffing spray paint and needed a refill.  Better still with the mugshot eh!! BTW this IS the pic of the guy just after police charged him  |

From The Darwin Awards ...
(February 1998) Matthew and his friends were sliding down a Mammoth Mountain ski run on a foam pad at 3am, when he crashed into a lift tower and died. His makeshift sledge of yellow foam had been stolen from the legs of a lift tower on Stump Alley. The cushion is meant to protect skiers who hit the tower, and the tower Matthew ran into was the one from which he had created his sledge. There's a moral in there somewhere.

NZ warning over hearse tax dodge
Transport authorities in New Zealand have vowed to crack down on motorists who dodge taxes by registering their vehicles as hearses. The scam emerged after a woman told a radio station that the manoeuvre saved her and her friends around NZ$125 ($77, £41) each.
Her car qualified, she said, because she used it to carry frozen chickens home from the supermarket.
As word spread, 40 people applied to reregister cars, a local website said.
Currently around 1,500 vehicles are registered in the low-charge "non-commercial hearse or ambulance" category, transport officials said.
Land Transport New Zealand has written to 937 possible scammers warning them to register correctly.
"Carrying groceries or dead animals in your car does not make it a hearse," spokesman Andy Knackstedt said.
He said offenders could be liable to a NZ$1,000 ($629, £330) fine.

From this week's Private Eye:
"The English football fans came into the station saying that they'd lost their hire car," a spokesman for the Cologne police told reporters, "and asking us to help them find it. They explained that they'd parked it in a side street, and had written down the name sign - 'Einbahn Strasse' - in their dairy so they'd be able to find it again after the match. But after the game, they discovered to their horror that every other street in the inner city seemed to have the same name. We explained to them that that was because 'Einbahn Strasse' is the sign we use to inform drivers that they are entering a one-way street. Then we set off in search of their car"
ROTFLMAO!!!

From BBC news ...
Backside firework prank backfires
A man suffered internal burns when he tried to launch a rocket from his bottom on Bonfire Night.
Paramedics found the 22-year-old bleeding, with a Black Cat Thunderbolt Rocket lodged inside him, when they attended the scene in Sunderland.
He suffered a scorched colon and is now recovering in hospital, where his condition is described as stable.
A spokesman for the North East Ambulance Service (NEAS) said the prank could have been fatal.
Douglas McDougal, from the NEAS, said: "We received a call stating there was a male who had a firework in his bottom and it was bleeding.
"He sustained fairly significant injuries in the fact that there's huge damage to that particular area."
'Beyond belief'
Mr McDougal added: "Potentially it could have been a fatal incident.
"There's a lot of major blood vessels round that area, so infection would probably be a huge problem for him.
"And also the body naturally produces methane gas, so combine that with the firework and the exploding effect with methane's flammability - it certainly could have been a lot worse than it really was."
A spokesman for the Firework Association described the bizarre prank as "beyond belief".
He said: "We have spent a long time working with the government to create laws that make fireworks safer and better for the public.
"This incident is very concerning but hopefully an isolated one."
Northumbria Police said they were aware of the incident, which happened in the Dame Dorothy Street area of Monkwearmouth, but are understood not to be carrying out further inquiries.
