Mike Pingree has a fun article in every Sunday Boston Herald called
Through The Looking Glass and it features Dumb criminals
and their even dumber crimes as well as oddball happenings from around the globe.
Its usually good water cooler chatter or bar talk.
Each column has about 9 stories.

HOPE I'M NOT IMPOSING: A burglar, apparently hopped up on methamphetamine,.
broke into the home of a Baptist minister in Wichita, Kan., during church services,.
and made himself right at home. He stayed for two hours during which he watched the movie.
"The Karate Kid,'' spent time in the hot tub, and tried on several outfits, settling on sweatpants.
Even when the minister's wife arrived and frantically called the police, he continued to rummage.
around. The minister came home and took a pistol form his safe, and, with the help of several.
parishioners, managed to subdue him.

Speaking of time-wasting sites, here's an interesting one. Cute, but very time-wasting.

Yeah, I got sucked into it for about half an hour last week. Strange, but fascinating.
