Greetings fellow Bizarros:
Police have apprehended one of the mysterious and dangerous
Seattle ninjas when the would-be warrior managed to impale
himself on a metal fence earlier this week.
Around 11:15 p.m., officers responded to a call from a
41-year-old man who said he had been assaulted. It turns
out the older man, who was heavily intoxicated, tried to
go into a sports bar. The younger man, who isn’t a bar
employee, barred the man from going inside–for some
reason–and an argument between the two men escalated
into a fight.
At one point, the men chased each other in the street.
In an attempt to get away, the younger man “thought he’d
basically be able to jump over this fence, and he didn’t
quite make it,” a police spokesman said.
As a police account of the incident notes, “Clearly he was
overconfident in his abilities.”
As police arrived to search for a suspect, one officer heard
the 25-year-old’s screams and found him stuck on the fence
with the metal spike jutting out from his buttock. The man
was bleeding profusely.
He was taken to Harborview Medical Center. Questioned at the
hospital, the man told police he believed he was a ninja.
Bizarrely,
Lewis

————- Man, 96, holds pre-emptive wake ————-
BEAVERTON, Ore. – A 96-year-old photographer in Oregon
said he decided to plan and hold his own wake prior to his
death so he could attend the event. Hugh Ackroyd, 96, said
he held the wake for family and friends Sunday at the
Beaverton home of friend Edda Sigurdar, The Oregonian
reported Monday. “Well, why not?” Ackroyd said of leading
his own wake. “Why bother when (I’m) dead?” Ackroyd, a
father of two whose wife died about 12 years ago, sat in
his padded wheelchair and greeted his friends as they
arrived for the event. He said one of his favorite items
at the wake was a wreath bearing a ribbon reading:
“Eventually, Hugh, rest in peace.” “It’s quite
magnificent,” Ackroyd said of his wake.

———- Explorers seeking South Pole whiskey ———–
BRISBANE, Australia – The head of a New Zealand expedition
said his team is attempting to retrieve whiskey that
explorer Ernest Shackleton took with him on his South
Pole expedition. Expedition leader Al Fastier said crates
containing the whiskey were abandoned by the British
explorer during his failed 1909 journey and are currently
frozen in ice in Antarctica, The (Brisbane, Australia)
Courier Mail reported. Fastier said his expedition team
will use special drills to gain access to the trapped
crates and he hopes to procure a bottle of the McKinlay
and Co. whiskey. Even if the expedition is successful,
Fastier said he has no intention of drinking what he might
recover. “It’s better to imagine it than to taste it. That
way it keeps its mystery,” he said. The Courier Mail said
Whyte & Mackay, the company that owned the now-defunct
McKinlay and Co., has asked for a sample of the whiskey
so it could attempt to replicate it.
