1. A couple of giant turtles that have been together longer than anyone alive can remember underwent marriage counseling after their hard-shelled romance hit rock-bottom, but to no avail. Bibi and Pondi, the Australian Zoo residents who have been side-by-side since birth 115 years ago, can no longer stand to share a cage without nipping bits of the other's shell, according to zoo personnel. Apparently, Pondi just decided it was time to play the field.
2. Speaking of a little promiscuity, a Gwinnett County jury awarded the widow of an Atlanta police officer $3 million after her husband died while having a threesome with a woman (not his wife) and another man back in 2009. Apparently, the fornicating fuzz was only 40 percent responsible for his own death after his doc failed to warn him strenuous activity, such as the ménage à trios he was in the midst of, could be hazardous to his health given his heart condition.
3. A hitchhiker scribing a book about the kindness of America was shot, apparently at random, while thumbing a ride on the side of Highway 2 in Montana. Cops arrested a 52-year-old man for the crime a short time later, but it seems there may still be a glimmer of hope for the presumptuous memoir: a passing motorist was the first to stop and offer help. Here's to the road less traveled?
