There was a programme on TV last year or so about people like this (my g/f loves watching weirdo TV programmes). Had some American woman who married/was in love with a fence. A wooden barrier, not a dealer in stolen goods.

Almost as strange as the dark side forum.
 
Haha, I saw that programme. Proper bizarre, but in some ways life must be a lot easier if you are in love with an inanimate object.. sex life must be a little odd though 8o
 
Anyone seen the channel 4 documentary on beastiality? There's a bloke who's married to his horse and he gives his horse 'Maregasms' his word, not mine. Weird stuff.
 
Prof. Nutt's article for The Sun

Wasn't expecting this one but found this on his twitter:

Article by me in today's Sun. Shame about the headline but read the rest and come to your own conclusions http://bit.ly/aPkg4B

I think now even The Sun is allowing the veiws of someone who is impartial to drug use (and abuse) there is a definite shift in the publics veiws on how drugs should be controlled. Naturally The Sun threw in a horror story right next to it :p but at least it's a (small) step in the right direction on getting the public to question the 'war on drugs'.

Thoughts?
 
Dutch coffee shop fined 10m euros

A Dutch court has fined the owner of the Netherlands' biggest cannabis-selling coffee shop 10m euros (£9m, $13.3m) for breaking drugs laws.

Owner Meddie Willemsen, who was tried along with 15 staff of the Checkpoint coffee shop in Terneuzen, was also sentenced to a 16-week prison term.

He was convicted for keeping more than the maximum tolerated amount of 500g (18oz) of drugs at the cafe.

Checkpoint served up to 3,000 people a day before being closed last year.

On a couple of occasions, police found 200kg (440lb) of cannabis when they raided the coffee house.

Willemsen was sentenced to 16 weeks in prison, but was released as he had already spent the time in jail ahead of the trial.

He and his staff were convicted of breaking drugs laws, exporting drugs and membership of a criminal organisation.

The 10m euro fine was lower than the 28m euro fine prosecutors had asked for because of the "role of the authorities" in allowing Checkpoint to grow unchecked.

"Checkpoint could not have expanded as much as it did without collaboration from the municipality of Terneuzen," a court statement said.

The town, close to the Belgian border, put up road signs showing the way to the Checkpoint and built a car park near it to reduce traffic congestion in town.

Though technically illegal, the Netherlands decriminalised the consumption and possession of under 5g (0.18oz) of cannabis in 1976 under an official "tolerance" policy.

no such thing as too much weed...
 
I can't find the link right now but there was a bloke in Aberdeen who was due to go to court for fraud and knew he was going to get sentenced to two years, so on the day of his trial he planted a fake bomb outside the court and called in a bomb hoax. Genius!
 
You guys must spend hrs trawling through crap - but to find jems like above must make it all worthwhile!

Thanks for the giggle
 
A man in West Yorkshire has managed to snap some stunning photos of the Earth from space using a compact Canon digital camera and a hot air balloon kit that cost him just £500.

Robert Harrison, of Huddersfield in West Yorkshire, constructed his space photography kit using off-the-shelf components that cost him around £500. He mounted a standard, four mega pixel Canon digital camera to a hot air balloon. The camera was hooked up to a small, Linux-based computer that was set to wake up the camera at set intervals and snap a picture. A GPS unit allowed Harrison to recover his camera when the balloon eventually came back to Earth.

The resulting photos are so stunning, that NASA has apparently been in touch with Harrison to learn how he managed to capture such high quality images so cheaply. Several galleries of photos can be seen at Harrison’s Flickr page, while his blog contains details of his various launches and the hardware used to construct his clever hot air balloon rig.
