A skin graft gone wack. The owner of this particular leg nipple claims it's just like a real one and responds to "rubbing".

Manute Bol to embarrass himself again for charity

This time the 7 ft. 7 in. Bol will become The World's Tallest Jockey. Past money-raising stunts have involved Bol playing hockey and boxing The Fridge on Fox's Celebrity Boxing.

But it's for charity, so that makes it okay, right?

Scariest Mug Shot. Ever.

JUNE 25--Meet Dion Milam. The 30-year-old California inmate may be the scariest looking criminal TSG has ever seen. Milam, who wears "Aryan" and "Honor" tattoos above his eyebrows and a swastika tat on his neck, was charged yesterday in a methamphetamine case (his brother-in-law allegedly tried to mail the drug into the Stanislaus County Jail, where Milam is being held on a murder charge). The below mug shot was taken earlier this year following Milam's arrest in the murder case. Milam, who pulled a gun on sheriff's deputies, got roughed up a bit as he resisted arrest.

Saving Private Lynch

The Iraqi man who tipped U.S. Marines to the location of American POW Jessica Lynch said Thursday he did so after he saw her Iraqi captor slap her twice as she lay wounded in a hospital.

"A person, no matter his nationality, is a human being," the tipster, a 32-year-old lawyer whose wife was a nurse at the hospital, said in an interview at Marines' headquarters, where he, his wife and daughter are being treated as heroes and guests of honor.

Bonsai Kittens

Some reporterette at the Akron Beacon Journal has her undies in a bundle over the Bonsai Kittens Site.

>>The so-called "lost Eastern art" was perverse and sickening. Seal a kitten in a jar, where its developing bones would warp into the shape of the container. Maintain life via drugs and tubes. In three or four months, you'd have an "aesthetically pleasing, custom shaped" Bonsai Kitten.<<

Uh, ignore the fact that it's a five year old internet hoax.

Sentencing Today

The charges against the five former SLA members relate to the April 21, 1975, bank robbery of Crocker National Bank in Carmichael, California, in which Myrna Opsahl -- a 42-year-old mother of four who was depositing money for her church -- was shot and killed.

Opsahl's husband was a doctor who was called to the emergency room that day only to find his wife dead on the operating table.

>I couldn't find a current news story to go with this, but the five former members of the SLA are being sentenced today for this crime. They disappeared in 1975 and lived generally unremarkable lives since until they were captured, put on trial and convicted last year. Newspaper heiress Patty Hearst drove their getaway car and was granted immunity in exchange for testimony. Here's hoping they rot in the slammer...

Waron. As in War+Moron-Mor= Waron.


Paul West didn't take the federal government's terrorism alert lightly. By Wednesday, half his entire 19th century farmhouse was covered with plastic to protect his family from a chemical or biological attack. He planned to finish the job Thursday. West paid $250 for 3,500 square feet of plastic and other supplies Wednesday morning.

"Why wait?" West said. "If there is an attack, how are you going to get the plastic?"

A Case of Strange Book-Keeping

Like so many authors, David A. Vise, an award-winning reporter for The Washington Post, wanted to create big buzz for his recently published book. He promoted his work on just about every radio or television show that would have him, including "Today," Don Imus's show and "The O'Reilly Factor." He made personal appearances around the country. He created a Web site advertising the book and its author.

But unlike other authors, Vise also bought between 16,000 and 18,000 copies of his own book from an online bookseller, Barnesandnoble.com, and then returned most of them in a confusing series of transactions. This unusual tactic has prompted suspicions that he was trying to manipulate bestseller lists by creating phantom sales, which Vise firmly denies.
