Southern news of the weird

Posted by R. Neal

Make up your own jokes...

Item: An Alabama man was charged with indecent exposure after several women reported being approached by a man wearing see-through pants.

Item: [removed]

Item: A luxury mobile strip club/lap dancing operation was busted in the stadium parking lot at a Tampa Bay Bucs game, giving new meaning to the term "tailgate" party. (OK, so I spotted you one joke.)

OK, then.

here's the story:

'The morning after a Department of Veterans Affairs bureaucrat was accused of bilking more than $100,000 from taxpayers in a kickback scheme, he walked from his wooded Auburntown cabin, sat down in the back of his pickup truck, and shot himself in the chest, authorities say.'
