A stranger on a strange day

Ft. Myers Beach FAIL = Lawsuit WIN?
Also from FMD Whitey-D, also from Fox Boston:
Nonetheless, FMB just opened itself to a lawsuit; unless there's criminal extracurricular activity, I don't see that the town has a leg to stand on.
FORT MYERS BEACH, Fla. - The town manager of Fort Myers Beach, Fla., is out of a job after the mayor and council members found out he was married to a porn star.I don't think holding it high was what you were doing with your head, honey...
The Fort Myers Beach town council voted 5-0 to fire Scott Janke "without cause."
Mayor Larry Kiker says he learned that Janke's wife is an adult film star, and the elected officials took the action a few hours later.
Kiker says the vote wasn't a "judgment call" on the activities of Janke, who he says has done a good job, or his wife. It was, says the mayor, a matter of "how effective he becomes" and how much "disruption" there is.
Adult Industry News recently reported that Janke's wife, Anabela Mota Janke, goes by the stage name Jazella Moore.
Janke says "our heads are held high" and that he and his wife "have nothing to be embarrassed about."
Nonetheless, FMB just opened itself to a lawsuit; unless there's criminal extracurricular activity, I don't see that the town has a leg to stand on.
DO. NOT. WANT!
This strange ore was unearthed by FMD Whitey-D, from Fox Boston:
MANCHESTER, N.H. - A woman was arrested in Manchester after flashing a police officer early Friday morning, police said.Ick, I wouldn't want something that looks like Tony Siragusa flashing me either. Tuck those tits back in, sweetie!
An undercover officer on patrol suspected the woman of engaging in prostitution near the area of Hanover Street and Beech Street.
The officer approached her and said the woman, identified as Lisa Bilodeau, of Manchester, made small talk and then exposed herself.
The officer identified himself and arrested Bilodeau.
Police said she fought back during the arrest.
Bilodeau was charged with lewdness and resisting arrest.

Opportunity knocks for Jeff?
LoveHoney UK is holding a sex toy contest, whereby the winner wins £1,000. The winner’s design will be made into a reality and will retain rights to the design. Pretty sweet, right? Plus, who doesn’t want to be that 80-year-old at the bar reminiscing with that time their Coo-cumber Dildo won the sex toy contest?Found on F-listed.

Bullfighting FAIL
I don't think fighting is what the bull wanted to do to that day. Wait for it: 0:25.

I cannot tell a lie...
ESPN sportsbabe Erin Andrews is indeed splendid and beautiful, naked or not.

Cost-effectiveness
Found on Jalopnik. Wait for it: 2:00...
Meh, tis interesting and all, though I'm not sure what the point was. The Nissan GT-R is some impressive engineering; even more so is the Bugatti Veyron (it's 1000 HP, after all, while the Nissan is 480). The problem, of course, is the tremendous leap in price...
Nissan GT-R: upwards of $80,000
Bugatti Veyron: upwards of $1.5 million
By contrast, a Ford Mustang can easily be had for $30,000 and retains roughly 50 to 80 percent of the performance of the GT-R, and 10 to 33 percent of the performance of the Veyron for 38% and 2% of the cost, respectively.
This, of course, depends on standards for comparison, of which I've left out one: fuel mileage.
Bugatti Veyron: 8 MPG city/13 MPG highway
Nissan GT-R: 16 MPG city /21 MPG highway
2007 Ford Mustang: 14 MPG city/ 20 MPG highway
I personally dispute the last figure; I have trouble getting it below 17 with hard, naughty driving, and I've achieved over 26 with 75 MPH cruise control.
Anyway, I suppose my point is that performance of particular pedigrees start to have prices beyond their gains. Doubtless, I'm definitely impressed by the achievements, but for a poor ol' Miner, I think I've more than gotten my money's worth with a little Detroit Iron.

Classic steel
From Uncrate:
Alternatively, there's also the New Soldier with locking, one-hand-open blade, some extra tools, and what looks like green synthetic handles. Don't have one, but it appears more modern and apt for campers, hikers, and hunters.
Take a trip back to 1891 with the Victorinox Swiss Army 125th Anniversary Heritage Knife ($495). Limited to just 1884 individually numbered units, the Heritage is a replica of the 1891 "Soldier's Knife" made by Karl Elsener for the Swiss Army. It features a large blade, punch, can opener, screwdriver, ebony hardwood handles, a certificate of authenticity, and will arrive in collectible commemorative packaging.If you're not a collector but want the same array of tools, there's the Soldier. I have one; slim, simple, elegant and very durable with its Alox handles.

Double trouble
Thanks to the generosity of Coed, there were many pairs of pressed pairs to choose from. Several included Lucy Pinder, who smashes nicely against Michelle Marsh, Chanelle Hayes, and Sophie Howard, which you can witness for yourself.
However, I give you the coupling of Ines Cudna and Aria Giovanni instead. Two great tastes that taste great together, TWICE!
