   Two more news 'grams

   Two more 'grams from the latest crop of Anna's News Clippings stories:   
      
      
   In Torpoint, Cornwall, Derek Nash found an invoice for the equivalent   
   of 20 euros in his five-year-old son Alex's school bag.  The boy had   
   chosen to visit his grandparents instead of attending a schoolmate's   
   birthday party at a ski centre, and the invoice, passed on by a   
   teacher from the other child's mother, was for the 'no-show'.  Nash,   
   who explains that he didn't know how to contact the birthday boy's   
   mother to report his son's cancellation, has refused to pay the   
   amount, and action is pending in small-claims court.  The birthday boy   
   no longer plays with Alex at school.   
      
     Derek Nash = He's narked.   
      
      
   According to UPI reports, Michigan bakery worker Ruben Giovanni   
   Gramajo is charged with putting the wrong kind of nuts in granola-bar   
   mix.  The deed was caught by security cameras and the Hearthside Foods   
   quality-control system.  Gramajo, 22, later told the police that   
   he'd put nuts and bolts in the mix in order to 'get a break from   
   work'.  He has his wish: at least for now, he isn't to set foot near   
   his employer's facilities.  He is being charged with placing harmful   
   objects in food, a felony in this case.   
      
     Ruben Giovanni Gramajo = Given marijuana bong or ...?   
      
   (Dunno what else might have led him to consider this a good idea)
