Toni Tramel, 31, of Owensboro, Kentucky, was arrested for public intoxication.

But as she was changing into an inmate's uniform at the jail, she is alleged to have sprayed breast milk into the face of a female deputy who was supervising her.

The officer had to undergo decontamination due to the potential bio-hazard.

Tramel now faces a felony charge of third degree assault on a police officer, with a bond set at $10,000.

No use crying over spilled..........never mind!!!

Is this the saddest looking creature on the planet?

These sad-looking creatures, which grow up to lengths of 12 inches, live at depths of 900m.

They spend most of their time gently floating around waiting for food to pass in front of them and because they live so far from the sea surface they're not often seen by humans.

However, increasing levels of deep-sea fishing in Australia and Tasmania for crab and lobster mean that the sulky sea-dwellers are being dragged up with other catches in increasing numbers.

These gelatinous masses may not be much to look at, but the world would be a less interesting place without them, so let's hope the Australian's don't kill them off.

In a recent survey I read, ten percent of respondents stated that they would interrupt sex to answer a text message, instant message, or phone call ...

Whatever happened to unplugging the phone?

Whatever indeed!
It used to be called coitus interruptus I guess it should now be textus interruptus

The first text message (or 'telenote' as it was originally called) was sent on 3rd December 1992 by Neil Papworth to colleagues at Vodafone and said 'Merry Christmas'. The commercial launch of SMS took place in 1995.

isn't polygamy the state sport there?

Tue Jun 12, 2007 7:16am EDT(Reuters) - Polygamy, once hidden in the shadows of Utah and Arizona, is breaking into the open as fundamentalist Mormons push to have the practice decriminalized on religious grounds.

The following are five facts on modern U.S. polygamists:

* The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, as the Mormon faith is formally known, practiced polygamy before the Civil War and then banned it in 1890 when the federal government threatened to deny statehood to Utah.

* In 1879, the Supreme Court said the First Amendment did not protect polygamy. In Reynolds v. United States, Chief Justice Morrison Waite wrote "Polygamy has always been odious among the northern and western nations of Europe, and, until the establishment of the Mormon Church, was almost exclusively a feature of the life of Asiatic and of African people." In Utah today, polygamy is a third-degree felony punishable by up to five years in prison, but the law is rarely enforced.

* Joseph Smith, founder of the once-isolated sect now based in Salt Lake City, Utah, took at least two dozen wives, say historians. His successor, Brigham Young, had about 20.

* Today, the Mormon church distances itself from about 40,000 breakaway Mormons in Utah and nearby states who practice polygamy illegally, as well as the many excommunicated Mormons in polygamous marriages who still identify with the faith.

* The largest known U.S. polygamist sect is the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, with an estimated 10,000 followers. Dressed in 19th-century clothing, the group is led by Warren Jeffs as "President and Prophet, Seer and Revelator". Jeffs is awaiting trial in Utah on charges he was an accomplice to rape for using his authority to order a 14-year-old girl against her wishes to marry and have sex with her 19-year-old cousin.
