A man who said he was "tired of walking" stole a steamroller
and led police on a chase that never went over 5 mph. Fina-
lly, a police officer walked up and jumped onto the machine,
forcing the man to stop.
A businesswoman was at work one day in San Francisco when a
colleague saw her take out her credit card and slide it into
the 3.5-inch floppy drive on the computer. Her colleague
asked her what she was doing and she explained that she was
shopping on the Internet.
A 23-year-old woman was arrested at the Salt Lake City air-
port hotel when she tried to pay for her visit with three
$16 bills.
A man who installed windows in skyscrapers was showing his
customers how strong each pane of glass was by getting a 10-
foot running start and jumping against the windows from the
inside. However, the windows must not have been as strong as
he thought: one shattered and he plummeted 27 stories to his
death.
Two Texas men tried to rob an ATM by attaching the ends of a
chain to the front of the machine and the bumper of their
truck. When they pulled, the bumper fell off the truck. The
men then panicked and fled the scene, failing to notice that
their license plate was still on the bumper.
