|    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 -        alt.anagrams FAQ: http://theanna.org/grams/        Weird news archive and more: http://theanna.org/              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
