Cheating husband punished publicly

Shame can be a powerful punishment. Just ask the guy who had to stand on the corner in Tysons Corner, Va., Wednesday morning.

You know, the guy wearing the sign that said, "I CHEATED. THIS IS MY PUNISHMENT."

He told a passerby that he cheated on his wife -- and she found evidence of it on his cell phone. So the wife doled out a rather creative punishment: He had to stand at the intersection during morning rush, wearing the handmade sign.

People reported seeing him as early as 9 a.m., and his presence was discussed on several of D.C.'s morning radio shows. A little before 11 a.m., his wife texted him and said he'd been out there long enough. He removed the sign and skedaddled.

Leesburg Pike in Tysons Corner is one of the most traffic-clogged arteries in the area, making for maximum viewing pleasure.

Tongueless man arrested in emergency room after rape victim bites back

MURRIETA, Calif - A Southern California man will stand trial in the rapes of four women, including one alleged victim who authorities say bit off the tongue of her attacker. The Riverside County District Attorney's Office said Monday that a judge in Murrieta ordered Ronald Douglas McGowan, 32, to trial after a preliminary hearing on 12 felony counts, including rape, forcible rape, assault with a deadly weapon and assault causing serious bodily injury. Prosecutors say one of the victims bit off part of McGowan's tongue in self-defense during a June 5 rape at her apartment. McGowan, of West Covina, was arrested at an emergency room where he went for treatment. His tongue could not be reattached.

joke #2 LOL

Did you hear the one about the guy who was visiting the zoo? After looking at the various exhibits, he ended up at the gorilla cage. Interestingly, every time he made a move..no matter what he did..the gorilla would imitate him exactly. He'd scratch his head...the great ape would do like-wise. He'd screech..the gorilla would screech too. Then scratched his eye..the gorilla went beserk. It broke out of it's cage and nearly beat him to death before zoo personnel could capture and subdue the beast.
Later at the hospital as he was recovering from his injuries he was visited by the head zookeeper.
The zookeeper inquired, "what did you do to make the gorilla so angry?"
"I don't know" replied the man. "I was just doing different things and the gorilla was imitating my every move until I scratched my eye like this" and the man pulled his lower eyelid down, as if to scratch it.
"Ohhhh my God", the zookeeper said. "That's f**k you in gorilla talk."
The zookeeper departed and the man plotted his revenge on the gorilla. The next day he went to a nearby deli and bought a huge roll of sandwich salami and a big knife.
He returned to the gorilla cage. He dupicated all of his previous manuevers. Each time the gorilla copied his move to the letter. Now was the time to show that gorilla who's smarter, the man thought. With that he stuck the giant salami into his pants, as if it was his very own salami and began to whack at it with the big knife.
He looked over at the gorilla, hoping to sense some anger from the gorilla. Alas, all he saw was the gorilla pulling at his lower eyelid.

a joke

A man boarded an airplane in New Orleans with a box of frozen crabs.

A blonde female crew member took the box and promised to put it in the
crew's refrigerator, which she did.

The man firmly advised her that he was holding her Personally responsible
for the crabs staying frozen, and proceeded to rant at her about what
would happen if she let them thaw out.

She was annoyed by his behavior.

Shortly before landing in New York , she announced over the intercom to
the entire cabin, 'Would the gentleman who gave me the crabs in New
Orleans, please raise your hand?

Courthouse Mooner Not Charged

A prosecutor's attempt to charge a Stockton California woman with a sex crime, one that could have required a Megan's Law registration for allegedly mooning an elderly couple in a San Joaquin County Superior Court elevator, was denied by a judge Tuesday.

Deputy District Attorney Stephen Taylor had sought a misdemeanor indecent exposure charge - along with a felony counts of attempting to dissuade a witness and elder abuse - against Katherine Patterson, 58, for exposing her right buttock and thigh to Donald and Nita Reinhart as they were leaving a court appearance in an embezzlement case. In that case, the Reinharts alleged Patterson's daughter-in-law bilked their charter bus company of $240,000 in cash deposits more than six years ago.

Judge Franklin Stephenson did not agree with Taylor's assessment that the mooning was a sexual affront as described in case law, nor was it elder abuse. He did, however, uphold the felony charge of attempting to dissuade a witness.

Nita Reinhart, 69, testified Tuesday about leaving the courtroom and walking with her husband into a courthouse elevator. Before the doors closed, Patterson and her daughter-in-law and granddaughter joined them.

Reinhart said Patterson stood next to her and then mooned the couple, pulling her pants down and exposing her right thigh and buttock.

Patterson said, "They can just kiss my a-s-s," according to Reinhart, who chose to spell out the word in court rather than say it. She said she was more embarrassed by the mooning than anything.

Reinhart and her husband had planned to leave their business to Patterson's daughter-in-law before they discovered the alleged embezzlement. Reinhart, who is frail and under a doctor's care, walks with a cane and took the witness stand with the help of a bailiff. Patterson's attorney, Richard Gibson, asked Reinhart how much of the defendant's backside she saw in a series of questions that appeared uncomfortable for Reinhart.

Stephenson did require Patterson to stand trial on the felony charge of attempting to dissuade a witness. Testimony by the Reinharts indicated that Patterson had frequently made "childlike" facial gestures at them in the hallways of the Stockton branch of the San Joaquin County Court building over the course the six-year-long embezzlement case.

"She would laugh and smirk at us. She would put her thumbs to her ears and wag her fingers at us," Donald Reinhart said on the stand. "She'd stick out her tongue at us."

Taylor argued that the behavior was essentially a case of bullying toward an elderly couple. He said the constant "tongue-wagging and finger-waving" was a contrived plan to intimidate the Reinharts from coming to the courthouse. Taylor said Patterson's husband, David Patterson, continued the intimidating behavior Tuesday when he appeared in the courtroom despite a restraining order against him filed by Nita Reinhart, prompting Stephenson to toss him out of the courthouse.

"It's like a bunch of kids, and it's just ridiculous behavior that shouldn't be put up with," Taylor said.

Stephenson dismissed the charge of elder abuse, agreeing with defense attorney Gibson, who argued the prosecution did not present evidence that the Reinharts were in physical danger or were placed in declining health by any of Patterson's alleged actions.

Naked passenger arrested on flight from Oakland

Authorities say a St. Louis-bound Southwest Airlines flight was forced to return to Oakland International Airport after a male passenger stripped, hit another passenger and fought with crew members.

Alameda County sheriff's deputies say flight 947 returned Thursday morning after 21-year-old Darius Chappille of Oakland allegedly exposed himself to the female passenger sitting next to him and punched her in the face.

Lt. Howard Jacobs says flight attendants and other passengers then subdued Chappille, as he disrobed. He was apparently completely naked when sheriff's deputies arrested him.

Chappille and the woman were taken to the hospital for minor injuries.

A Southwest Airlines representative says the flight took off from Oakland again around 10:16 a.m.
