SINC SAYS: An inmate on death row in an Ohio prison got hold of some pills and overdosed on them just hours before his scheduled execution. Guards found him unconscious and rushed him to the emergency ward of a local hospital. Hospital medical staff have so far refused to release him saying that he is still in critical condition. Prison officials have stayed the execution, but only for a week so he can recover. Then they’re going to kill him.

The Things Our Readers Send Us Spring Is Just Around The Corner . . . Nindigully Road Train Burger The tiny township of Nindigully is located on the edge of the Queensland outback - 160km west of Goondiwindi, about 530km west of Brisbane, and approximately 70 km north of the Queensland/New South Wales border. Nindigully Pub is Queensland's oldest hotel, located in its original condition and position on the banks of the Moonie River. The licence was issued in 1864 after operating as shearers accommodation for the Nindigully Station. The "boom" town has now been reduced to just two houses, the pub, the old general store and the town hall, with a population of six! Nevertheless, it was voted the Best Country Pub in Australia in 2006 by 44 Australia magazine, and you can see why - it has become famous for its truckie's feed of the Nindigully Road Train Burger. This giant hamburger is served with French fries, onion rings and a selection of sauces, says it will feed 1- 4 people, and costs $36 - the meat patty alone is 1.2kg! How do you reckon you'd go?

I know, I know you think they stung him with excessive late charges, right? Wrong. They had him arrested.

A Hart To Heart Talk

SINC SAYS: A 60-year-old man near Chicago had a day he won’t soon forget during the last big snow storm. He had been over at his mother’s house and shovelled her walk when he felt a pain in his arm and chest. In denial that he might be having a heart attack, he got in his car and drove away. He had been having problems with his cell phone so he called his provider for assistance. That’s when he pulled into a convenience store and things got hairy. The cell phone rep got him the help he needed in a roundabout way. Oddly enough, her name was Hart.

... ... ...John’s NL reader sent along these shots of a new litter of Dachshund puppies, born last Tuesday. Left to right, are Joannie (named after Joannie Rochette), Monty, Bubbles, Sidney (aka Sid the Kid Crosby), and Lew. Joannie and Lew are over a pound, Monty, Bubbles and Sidney should tip the scales at about two pounds. ...March 9th - The Woman’s Show with Kate Ammar, Lisa B, Donna Jibaroo, Maria Reid, and Mary Thomas featuring an all woman’s open stage. This night is intended to show off all the talented of female musicians in and around our area. I have had the pleasure to watch, listen and play along with a lot of the great female performers we’ve met. Kate is a mostly choir trained singer who shows guts live and plays a little guitar and will show off some original material accompanied by the house band and her good friend and very talented Zara Domino on (guitar). I asked Kate (my daughter) to host this first time all ladies show and she is very excited for this evening to happen. Lisa B I have seen numerous times on drums and recently watched her play guitar and sing. Great touch drummer and we will use Lisa on drums, guitar and vocals through the night. Donna Jibaroo is a great funky blues style bass player who also sings and dabbles on drums and other instruments I am sure. I have had the pleasure to sit in at a couple of gigs with Donna and she showed off her great fronting talents at both gigs. Maria Reid was the first female drummer I got a chance to see at our open stages back in 2003. Great clock drummer keeping very good timing and always sticking to the meat and potatoes style to keep the time right for the rest of the stage. Maria also played along side Wayne Allchin in a band called backfire for a stint and last we spoke she was looking to put together her own act. Mary Thomas has to be on of the busiest ladies on the music scene and I am sure a lady a lot of the guys and girls would consider one of the leading vocalists in our area. Fronting the Mary Thomas band she also kept herself very busy on the open jam scene running her own open stages for over 10 years. Also had a stint hosting at the renowned Blues on Whyte. This girl lights up any stage I have ever seen her on and I think will bring in a killer set with the house band. ...I picked this house band to be the sit in and back up band for anyone who shows up to play and this night will be dedicated to my late mother Basma Ammar who was a hand drummer and would have been so proud to see this night for the girls. ...Every Tuesday night from 9:00 p.m. to 1:00 a.m.

SINC SAYS: Honestly folks, you can’t make up the kind of stuff we find on the web. There’s not much to tell about a woman getting a boob job either. That is unless something goes wrong, in which case we’re all over it. But beware finding your surgeon on the internet. This lady went in to have her boobs enhanced, but she came out with four instead of two. No, really.

During a patient's two week follow-up appointment with his cardiologist, he informed me, his doctor, that he was having trouble with one of his medications. ' Which one ?' I asked. 'The patch. The Nurse told me to put on a new one every six hours and now I'm running out of places to put it'. I had him quickly undress and discovered what I hoped I wouldn't see. Yes, the man had over fifty patches on his body! Now, the instructions include removal of the old patch before applying a new one. - Submitted by Dr. Rebecca St. Clair

Unless that is, you consider he is only 11 years old.

It doing so, they inadvertently turn into a military base and roar through the guarded front gate. A security guard opens fire and kills the 16-year-old passenger and wounds the driver. Now get this, the cops charge the driver with murder because his actions caused the death of his friend. Only in America.

Such is the life of a dog named Treo who sniffs out roadside devices to save the lives of troops in the field. Any dog that does that should get a medal. I just wish they hand’t named it the Dickin medal. ;-)

... ...A woman walks into the downtown welfare office, trailed by 15 kids. 'WOW,' the social worker exclaims, 'are they all yours?’ 'Yep, they are all mine,' the flustered momma sighs, having heard that question a thousand times before. ...All the children rush to find seats. 'Well,' says the social worker, 'then you must be here to sign up. I'll need all your children's names.' 'Well, to keep it simple, the boys are all named Leroy and the girls are all named Leighroy.' In disbelief, the case worker says, 'Are you serious? They're ALL named Leroy?' Their momma replied, 'Well, yes-it makes it easier. When it's time to get them out of bed and ready for school, I yell, 'Leroy!' An' when it's time for dinner, I just yell 'Leroy!' ... An' if I need to stop the kid who's running into the street, I just yell Leroy' and all of them stop. It's the smartest idea I ever had, namin' them all Leroy.' The social worker thinks this over for a bit, then wrinkles her forehead and says tentatively, 'But what if you just want ONE kid to come, and not the whole bunch?'

I ate machacado con huevos, a scrambled egg and dried beef dish, again with fresh dinner plate sized wheat flour tortillas. ...Machado means “shredded” in Spanish and for this dish the name has come to mean the shredded air cured and crispy beef that it contains. ...As a Panaderia customer, you pick up a large tray and a set of tongs and then help yourself to the bakery items behind sliding or hinged glass doors. When you have all you want or can afford (budget or health wise) on your tray you bring it to the cashier who will tally your order and move all of your baked goods to paper bags. ...Giant floor standing mixers and dough kneading machines with dangerous looking mixing arms were waiting for their next batch of ingredients. ...Jesus was up high for His best vantage point to watch over the bakers and bakery. These bakers start working while most of us are still sound asleep in our beds and not likely to rise for hours. Brownsville is not a particularly dangerous city and this Panaderia wasn't in a rough neighborhood. It just made all of the employees, both men and women, feel much better with the crucifix hanging there in a high central position. ...While he granted my request, I realized later I should have added “and from eating out of the bags that anyone else in our group may have.” ...Next was a small family owned tamale shop, Ybarra Tamales, in a house right along a busy highway service road in Brownsville. The store area itself was barely 15 square feet, just a little window counter at which fresh, literally homemade, tamales are purchased. ...Women had to travel with the men to prepare their food whether it was to the food growing fields or the battlefields. In what was probably a desperation move, someone figured out that they could put ground corn (an ancient staple food) and fillings if available, into something that had little other use, a corn husk. ...The chiles would not only give the tamales some flavor, but it would help preserve them for longer periods. The men could easily take them wherever they went and eat them whenever convenient, cold or re-heated directly over a fire or on a hot pottery surface. ...Consequently, they made a special place for tamales in all their festivities, particularly Christmas. ...Made with corn flour, chile sauce, pork lard and a variety of fillings, these are not food for the faint of heart. Many have tried to make them without the lard, but they just don't have the same appeal - sort of like drinking reconstituted powdered milk. ...Upon return to Chef’s house, we discover that while we were away the feral hogs were at play. ...The business discussions continue while I am trying to get some night shots of the house and yard. ... I take my tripod out and keep moving away and away again from the house trying to get the optimal angle. ...The taste trip to the Land of Texico is over for now and our team must split up in many directions the next morning. ... We all have much work to do in the next month before filming will start. I will be taking a few days to stop over in Oklahoma to visit a relative before I return to Calgary.
