   Three weird-news items with 'grams   
   03 Mar 24 15:02:28   
   
   From: LG-usteen@asdf.fi   
      
   I'll start with a rather obvious and throwaway anagram.   
   Thinking about this recent hero of Anna's News Clippings makes my head   
   hurt.  In other words,   
        Brian Pare = Brain rape!   
      
   The background:   
   Fact-checking is good, isn't it?  On this principle, Canada's Brian   
   Pare, 30, decided to test officials' claims that climate-change-linked   
   dry conditions have produced an especially severe fire season in   
   Quebec.  Believing that the government had set numerous forest fires   
   itself, he hypothesised that the land isn't really that dry.   
   Therefore, he set 14 fires, expecting them not to spread.  They did,   
   prompting several evacuation orders.   
     Thanks in part to a tracking device attached to his vehicle after   
   he'd been found near one of the fires and 'demonstrated a certain   
   interest in fires', he was arrested and has admitted his guilt.   
      
      
   Second is this piece of work:   
   Florida anger-management counsellor Travis McBride's search for local   
   homeless man Clinton Dorsey led him to a Deland woman's home, where,   
   livid, he claimed that Dorsey had set out a jarful of glass to harm   
   nearby dogs.  A few hours later, the woman reported having witnessed   
   McBride find his quarry - and shoot him.  Authorities recovered the   
   corpse held in the boot of the 46-year-old therapist's hatchback, and   
   his employees at Starting Point Mental Health will cover his duties   
   while he is being held in jail.   
      
        Travis Michael McBride = Mild, I bitch & rave & scream   
        Travis Michael McBride ~ raved "Blame _him_, critics!"   
      
      
   Finally, I can tell nearly this entire story via anagrams:   
   The parents of a Wisconsin boy were displeased with the attention he'd   
   received from his teacher, who had given him a Glock for his 13th   
   birthday.  Sifting through his mobile phone's message history while he   
   was asleep, they discovered that the teacher, 35-year-old Tyesha   
   Bolden, had also sent him a picture of her bare chest and professions   
   of unconditional love.  Once detectives entered the picture, Bolden   
   told school supervisors that she'd let the boy stay at her home, later   
   admitting that sex was included.   
     She stated also that she had called an end to the illicit relations   
   by refusing to supply a second handgun alongside the cash the boy had   
   requested.  She nonetheless faces the prospect of 40+ years in prison.   
      
     Tyesha Bolden   
     ~ leads boy, then...   
     ~ A bed? Honestly?   
     ~ "Yeah, let's bond!"   
     ~ Nest held a boy.   
     ~ Teen + lady = bosh!   
     ~ Hone bad style   
     ~ loads, then "Bye!"   
     ~ Ban (yes, he told   
     ~ also, by the end).   
     ~ Last bed, honey!   
      
      
   --   
   A n n a  S h e f l  - For email, substitute 'usenet' for its anagram   
     - "Never eat more than you can lift."  --Miss Piggy -
