Money, money, money: Japan’s mystery money giveaway!
July 30, 2007
All right, besides high tech vibrators revolutionising the world, what the hell is going on in Japan?!
Someone, or some people, are getting way too happy and or way too crazy!
A few weeks after we reported the mysterious appearance of envelopes containing hundreds of dollars in men’s toilets across Japan, more startling news has reached us about Japan’s weird money mystery.
On Saturday residents in an apartment building in Tokyo have received a total of 1.81 million yen or $US15,210, with unmarked enveloped delivered to 18 letterboxes.
On Wednesday an envelope with one million yen was left in the mailbox of a 31-year-old woman in the western city of Kobe, and that same day, bills worth 960,000 yen were inexplicably seen “falling” in front of a convenience store.
So what the hell is going on in Japan?
Is one sole person responsible for these weird and random acts of ‘charity’?
Or are there various copy cat money givers?
And how do I get free money?
What the hell is going on?
So many questions, so few answers.
The Crazy News: Shot of the Week 
Yeah baby, she’s got it!
Well, well, well…What’s all this then?
German media are reporting on some very unusual activity occurring in the German town of Doemitz.
A 30-something naked blonde woman, as pictured above, was snapped on a digital camera by a stunned local as she left a petrol station convenience store wearing nothing but golden stilettos and a bracelet.
Nothing else….
And as you can see, she appears to be tattooed. Do tattoos count as clothing?
NO!
Or is she wearing some kind of body paint/body stocking? Either way, she’s looking mighty hot, on what was a mighty hot day in continental Europe.
The mystery blonde bought 6 packets of cigarettes from petrol station employee Ines Swoboda late on the sweltering Sunday afternoon and then returned to a waiting Ferrari F430, before zooming off.
“I wasn’t surprised because she’s come in naked before — she’s a very nice woman,” Swoboda said, adding none of the other customers were bothered.
Although some of the males in the store at the time were seen mysteriously despairing into the toilets afterwards, must have drunk too much beer on Saturday night…
Whatever the case, this naked blonde sure likes showing off her skin and those lovely tattoos, or whatever that is (help me out here).
Whatever the facts, it sure does look like she might have gained a hell of a lot more attention than she bargained for.
The Crazy News will keep you updated on any further naked developments…
Hot in Europe! Literally…
Meanwhile in Serbia, three tourists were arrested for cycling in the nude in a bid to beat the sweltering and deadly heat wave sweeping parts of the European continent.
Surprise, surprise one of the three nudes was a German, the other two Austrian.
All three men were fined 250 Euros each for disrupting public peace.
They must have thought the World Naked Bike Ride was on. One month too late fellas.

Expensive tastes: Dog eats US $800!
July 20, 2007
Naughty dog!
“She’s eaten lipstick, so lipstick gets all over the carpet, ball point pens all over the carpet, toothpaste, shampoo…she’ll eat a whole box of Kleenex if she can get it.”
Ahh yes, the humble dog.
One of the greatest, most loyal companions in human history. Well, in most cases. Some people choose to eat dogs rather than be their friends, sometimes both.
Pepper Ann is an eight-year-old black Labrador-German shorthair from Wisconsin, USA. And she eats everything she can get her jaw into.
On a trip to her owner’s mother’s house, Pepper Ann decided she would get on into an unguarded purse of a family friend. Poking her nose inside, she was lucky enough to come across $500 in fresh US paper bills.
Bad Doggy!
Pepper Ann’s owner, 50-year-old Debbie Hulleman was then forced to play the waiting game and sort through the naughty dog’s faeces and vomit. Amazingly she managed to recover $700, taping up the dozens of torn pieces and taking them to the bank for a refund.
You go girl!
Just wonder if Pepper Anne’s appetite subsided after chewing down on all those dollar bills. Why would Pepper Anne lose her appetite you ask?
Well, studies of US dollar bills over the years have come up with a surprising amount of evidence to suggest that up to 2/3rds of US paper money in circulation may contain traces of the recreational drug cocaine. Source: Urban Legends Reference.
Not that there would be enough of the stuff on the bills to have an effect, or would there? Apparently, cocaine effects can include loss of appetite. Not that I would know.
Maybe I should ask all round wild child Lindsay Lohan…She’s tanking faster than Enron stock that girl.
Party time!

Consumerism gone crazy?
Haven’t yet finished the shopping you wanted at Ikea, and the store looks like it’s about to close. Oh no! Guess you better head for the exits…Or do you?
No need to worry folks, you can stay in the store overnight, not a problem.
“It will be like an alternative hostel,” said Frode Ullebust, a company spokesman. “There will be the regular dormitory with lots of beds stacked up together. We will also have a bridal suite, with a round bed and a hanging chandelier, and the luxury suite, where customers can enjoy breakfast in bed.”.
Every night the 30 customers permitted to sleep over will be able to stock up on meatballs, Norwegian salmon and cranberry mousse as Ikea is offering free dinner and breakfast. “The shop opens at 10am so if they are lazy, people might get woken up by shoppers testing out their mattresses,” Ullebust said.
Customers will also be able to take their bedsheets home. “It’s a nice souvenir,” he added. “We will also give them bathrobes with the Ikea Hostel logo on, and some slippers, so they won’t get cold at night.”
Now that’s just plain awesome. How much for the luxury suite I should wonder? Sounds like one hell of an idea for a honeymoon.
The crazy new idea will be tested in two Oslo, Norway warehouses. No word yet on the concept catching on in other parts of the world.
Sure hope it does!
It all begs the question, where did this sleep over Ikea idea come from?
Well, I’ve got a sneaking suspicion it must have been from this recent Aussie comedy sketch…
