He was kinda asking for it...
This guy was apparently all decked out in camouflage and standing in the street when the car hit him... smart. [Burlington Free Press]

Inmates' big chicken dinner lawsuit dismissed
A Burlington, VT judge dismissed a lawsuit by three convicted criminals over some bad chicken one of them ate. The main dude, Christopher Butts, 52, of Dayville, Conn., who served time for driving while intoxicated with death resulting, alleged he bit into a reheated piece of frozen chicken in November 2005 and felt a pus-like substance squirt into his mouth, then saw what appeared to be the animal's digestive tract in the chunk of meat. Chris got sick, vomited, convulsed and... gasp... no longer enjoys chicken, according to court papers. Two other convicts "ate meat from Butts' box" and, although they didn't really get sick... got sick just thinking about how sick they could have become. All three acted as their own lawyers and wanted cash dollars. The judge said no dice... get back in your cells. [Burlington Free Press]

Vermont prisoners riot after being told they can't sleep all day
What? It's jail, not vacation... get these fools up and over to the license plate shop, rock pile, chain gang or whatever it is they are supposed to do in there. Damage to television sets, tables, and sprinkler heads? Screw 'em. Put them all in cells with concrete floors with a hole in the middle for a toilet and then see if they'd be willing to go to work. Seriously... it's the prison's own fault. [WPTX.com]

PETA wants Ben & Jerry's to switch to human breast milk
In a sane and logical bid for publicity, the folks over at the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals sent a letter to Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield, co-founders of Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream, urging them to replace cow's milk they use in their ice cream products with human breast milk. "PETA's request comes in the wake of news reports that a Swiss restaurant owner will begin purchasing breast milk from nursing mothers and substituting breast milk for 75 percent of the cow's milk in the food he serves," the statement says (original post here). Anything for publicity, right guys? [Click2Houston]
