India Hires Monkeys to Guard

India has begun using monkeys to guard the Commonwealth Games in New Delhi.  New Delhi has a problem with monkeys interfering with there business.  Due to the Langurs size and "fierceness", other monkeys fear them and will not bother the games.  Apparently the Indian's can't handle the attacking monkeys, so they outsourced the jobs to the Langurs.  The Langurs don't complain, despite their extremely low pay.  New Delhi prays that they don't form a union and turn against their employers, because they are fierce and scary

"Case of dumb and dumber"

That is the quote stated by Detective Sgt. Andrew Beams after two men stole a 5 foot python and a lizard.  The suspects were caught when they decided to bring the python to McDonalds.  If i was to steal a python, the first thing i would have done was taken it to McDonalds too.  Thank god these guys did it first, now I know never to take my stolen python to a McDonalds cause i will be caught.  According to this drawing, pythons do actually like cheeseburgers:

Python Eating Cheeseburger

Again I'm not sure which is worse, the fact that someone decided to bring their stolen python to a McDonalds, or i actually found a picture of a python eating a cheeseburger.

Homeless Man Breaks Into Home

A homeless man in Beaverton, Oregon, broke into a home, and from the hot tub, called police to ask for hot chocolate, towels, and a hug.  Police say he claimed he was the sheriff, but the man later admitted he wasn't the sheriff.  The man said he needed the towels because he had been in the water for 10 hours, and all of his towels got wet.  Because of this, he needed hot chocolate with marshmallows and a hug.  The man claimed he had been yelling for an hour and a half as well.  I'm not sure which is more impressive, the fact that this guy actually figured out how to break into a house, or that he stayed in a hot tub for 10 hours, especially with no dry towel or hot chocolate.

Golfer causes fire with iron

It's not that funny, but I think it's post worthy.  Some golfer, who asked to be un-named, took a shot from the rough with his club, struck a rock, caused a spark, and set 12 acres of the course on fire in California.  150 firefighters were called to the scene, and helicopters dropped water from the sky.  Police say that the mystery golfer would not be charged for the 12 acres of damage, but I can't imagine he will be welcome back to the club. But, hey, atleast his game is hotter than Tiger's.

Hello

Hello everyone, my name is Tommy Chalk.  I was born in Frederick, Maryland, and still live there today.  I am 18 years old and I go to Frederick Community college.  I am just taking my general ed classes, and have no idea what I want to major in yet.  I took this class because I thought it sounded interesting and cool.  I work at a retirement home as a waiter, and it may not sound like a good job, but I think it's great.  It is right across the street from where I live, so I have a 25 second commute to work.

I have always been a big fan of Bob Marley, but I really like all types of music. My favorite movies are Blackhawk Down and The Hangover.  I've seen Blackhawk Down about 20 times, and The Hangover is the funniest movie ever.  I'm a huge sports fan, and can sit and watch anything.

By doing this blog, I will post various things about the media, most likely the media's interpretation about these funny events.I've always enjoyed reading about funny or dumb news around the world.  I'm gonna try to find funny events and put it in the blog, and I hope you enjoy it.
