happy birthday to you

i like to read the 'eye openers' when i get the express, pretty funny stuff. anyways in yesterday's paper, an 82 year old guy called the cops on his neighbors. apparently it was always someone's birthday. he would hear the happy birthday song at "irregular intervals and at all hours." so the cops came to investigate and found the problem. he had one of those singing cards on his windowsill - only he didnt know it sang. breezes coming in through the window would open the card just enough to start the music and kill the dude's nerves.

this other dude got thrown back in jail after he was released. why?? because he had stolen his prisoner t-shirt as a souvenier. i mean, really?? who needs a memento from prison?? is your criminal record not enough for you??

*uh... it's pretty universal
