News Morning Newsdome: Boozy news-y
Posted by Bobby Feingold @senorbobby on Thu, Nov 5, 2009 at 5:43 PM
>> Give pees a chance: A 19-year-old university student may be jailed after being photographed urinating on a war memorial poppy wreath. If a drunken Brit can't publicly pee without being hassled, then there's really no point in living in England, now is there? (Reuters)
>> More wonderfully boozy news: The annual Todo Santos Cuchumatan horse race in Guatemala was ruined when riders and onlookers consumed copious amounts of homemade moonshine, leaving some riders to fall off their horses and many tourists to drunkenly stumble through the nearby village. I've never wanted to go to Guatemala so badly. (Reuters)
>> Brigitte Harris, who chopped off her father's penis and sautéed it after he allegedly has raped her since the age of three, is now taking cooking classes in prison. And here I thought revenge was a dish best served cold. (the New York Daily News)
>> Obama totally embarrassed his daughter Malia when he revealed that she made a 73 on a science test. If he's trying to revamp "No Child Left Behind," he's not doing a very good job. (the New York Times)
>> And finally, coming out of the Florida panhandle: A baby who had been missing for five days was found alive under her baby-sitter's bed, and the parents may have known about it. At least that baby's dad didn't tell the whole world she got an F on a test! (AP)
