this is a true story...


A city councilman in
Utah , Mark Easton, had a beautiful view of the east mountains, until a new neighbour purchased the lot below his house and built a new home.


The new home was 18 inches higher than the ordinances would allow, so Mark Easton, mad about his lost view, went to the city to make sure they enforced the lower roof line ordinance.


The new neighbour had to drop the roof line, at great expense.


Recently, Mark Easton called the city, and informed them that his new neighbour had installed some vents on the side of his home.


Mark didn't like the look of these vents and asked the city to investigate.


When they went to Mark's home to see what the vents looked like, this is what they found...

This video is NOT for real, however the story from Melbournes The Age is. Melinda Gates recently revealed that Bill has banned all Apple products from their home. Imagine that,

"Dad, can I have an ipod?"
"No son, here have a Zune instead."
"I hate you Dad!!"
NB. When you go to the story check out the picture of the iPod amnesty bin at Zune HQ. Also Melinda's quote, 
"Every now and then I look at my friends and say, 'Ooh, I wouldn't mind having that iPhone,' ",
Thats got to hurt Billy Boys feelings now, just too too funny!

Never mind ventriloquists like Keith Harris and Roger DeCourcey. What about Professor Stephen Hawking? I saw him on telly blathering on about galaxies for hours and I never saw his lips move once. Genius

FORT PIERCE, FL -- Told McDonald’s was out of Chicken McNuggets after paying for a 10-piece, a local woman called 911...Three times."This is an emergency, If I would have known they didn't have McNuggets, I wouldn't have given my money, and now she wants to give me a McDouble, but I don't want one,” Latreasa L. Goodman later told police. “This is an emergency."The McNugget meltdown happened last week at a McDonald’s in the 600 block of North U.S. 1 and ended with Goodman, 27, getting a notice to appear on a misuse of 911 charge, according to a recently released police report.Goodman told investigators she tried to get a refund for the 10-piece McNuggets, but the cashier told her all sales are final."I called 911 because I couldn't get a refund, and I wanted my McNuggets," Goodman told police.The cashier told police she offered Goodman, of the 2400 block of South 25th Street, a larger portion of food for the same price to make up for it, but said Goodman got “irate,” the report states.Goodman reportedly yelled, "I don't want a McDouble and small fry," the cashier told investigators.Dispatchers for 911 told police Goodman called the emergency number three times and on each occasion was told an officer was en route.“Goodman maintained the attitude ‘this is an emergency, my McNuggets are an emergency,’” the report states.McNuggets, introduced to the McDonald’s national menu in 1983, are sold in more than 100 countries and, unlike the McDouble, are often dunked in barbecue or hot mustard sauce.Goodman’s 10-piece selection has 460 calories and 29 grams of fat.

MCDONALD'S STATEMENT:"Satisfying each and every customer that visits our restaurants is very important to us.Regarding this isolated incident, we apologize for the inconvenience caused.In the event that we are unable to fill an order, a customer should be offered the choice of a full refund or alternative menu items. We regret that in this instance, that wasn't the case.We want to correct our mistake. We will be sending the customer her refund, along with an Arch card for a complimentary meal on us.We never want to disappoint a McNuggets fan or any McDonald's customer.Customer satisfaction is our top priority."
