70 Year Old Man With Cane & Oxygen Tank Robs Mid-Town Store
Jul 13th
According to NYMAg.com “Here are the seven most awesome things about this otherwise standard shooting and robbery attempt described in the Post today:
1. The would-be burglar was in his seventies.
2. He was carrying a cane. And an oxygen tank.
3. Upon entering the midtown clothing store Sarar, he announced it was a stickup.
4. He fired several (missed) shots at the manager and a customer, yelling: “You want one? You want another one?”
5. No one was hurt, but eight suits were shot through, and one bullet landed in the jacket pocket of the last one.
6. Even though he was ambling on a cane and with an oxygen tank, he escaped …
7. … in a big, shiny black Cadillac.”

McDonald’s Places Condoms in Happy Meals by Accident
Jul 7th
Last week McDonald’s executives distributed over 5,000 Happy Meals with colored condoms instead of a plastic toy from the movie The Last Airbender.
The condoms were intended for the Provincetown, Mass. school system, which recently established a policy making them available for students of all ages; they were delivered to McDonald’s distribution center in Barnstable, Mass. in error.
Quote from the article:
| “They were so bright and colorful, they were mistaken for Happy Meal toys,” explained McDonald’s vice president of public relations Robin Anderson. “Unfortunately most of the workers there don’t read English, and they thought ‘Ribbed Latex’ was a character from The Last Airbender.”
“Who ever heard of The Last Airbender anyway?” added Jose Estevez, president of McDonald’s Distribution Union 8801, in defense of his fellow workers. The mistake led to an incident in a Brewster, Mass., McDonald’s, where more than a dozen 8-year-olds attending a birthday party Shrieks of horror ensued from several other patrons, and one elderly woman fainted when a condom balloon landed in her Filet O’ Fish. “She’d apparently never seen one that size before,” explained Brewster Police Chief Bradley Heffernan, who noted that there were some similar concerns when Congress instituted its “Cash For Condoms” program. The McDonald’s incident also caused problems in Provincetown, where the schools accidentally received the restaurant’s shipments of Last Airbender toys, and several were released to students who went into their school’s nurse’s office seeking condoms. |
