Do you want to be a gigolo?
Malaysian men promised that, for a fee, they can become well-paid gigolos. It's the old
dream job scam. One sucker
"was told to meet a client at a city hotel. He waited for hours until he spotted a Western women who seemed to be searching for someone. 'I thought she was my client so I approached her and introduced myself. To my surprise, instead of receiving words of welcome, I got cursed and insulted,' he told the daily."
Dumb Robber #1
Forgets to bring bag for money as he robs bank. Consequently ends up dropping most of the money during the getaway.
Dumb Robber #2
Man attempts to hold up bank. Finds out the building he's in is not a bank. He thought it was because of the presence of an ATM machine.
Lost Candy Bars
If you're a fan of
Lost, you might want to try some Apollo Candy Bars, being
distributed at events across the country. The Apollo Candy Company is a subsidiary of The Hanso Group, which should be familiar to
Lost fans. I should add Apollo Candy to my list of
Lost-related hoax websites.
Church ponders possible balloon hoax
On July 23 the Gibbsville Reformed Church in Wisconsin released 600 balloons into the air. Attached to the balloons were tags saying, "When you find me, please send a note to my church." The Church soon received word from Indiana and Kentucky of found balloons. Then a tag was returned to them from China. The pastor is suspicious:
"We're thinking it may be just somebody's idea of a joke, which puts us in a little bit of a bad spot. Just the fact that it wasn't signed was somewhat suspicious. There's probably some good sermon (material) in here somehow."
Comments
Hmmm, was the newspaper in which the ad appeared in mentioned? Then again, I hardly get my news off the papers nowadays.

Hmmm, It's part of the "The Lost Experience" game I keep hearing about. Then again, I'm not into Lost either.
It's interesting to note, tho, that "Apollo" is also a very real confectionary here in Malaysia.

"I even drank lots of essence of chicken,"
Wow, does that help in anyway? Or do you just get chicken breath?
Sure, it's a machine for making Anti-Tank Mines. They're the latest fad in bank security. Much better than the more usual caltrops.
And the "Dumb Robber #1" link doesn't seem to want to work for me. Is it my computer messing up again, or is the link doing odd things?
