Do you read the
News of the Weird? I love the site, but can't recall ever linking to it, so consider this my overdue recommendation. Bookmark the site if you enjoy a weekly dose of capsule descriptions of bizarre news, and while there aren't any hilarious ones this week,
this one made me laugh. After all, how often do you hear a quote from a funny district attorney?
Elijah Walker, 35, who pleaded guilty to cocaine possession in Cincinnati in June, resisted complying with the state requirement that he also give up a DNA sample, in that he feared the state would use it to create a clone of him. (Said the prosecutor, reassuringly, "I'm not sure the state really wants another Elijah Walker.") [Cincinnati Enquirer, 6-30-05]
