Kathleen Robertson of Austin, Texas, was awarded $780,000 by a jury of 
peers after breaking her ankle tripping over a toddler who was running 
inside a furniture store. The owners of the store were understandably 
surprised at the verdict, considering the misbehaving little toddler was 
Ms. Robertson's son.

As we waited just off the runway for another airliner to cross in front
of us, some of the passengers were beginning to retrieve luggage from
the overhead bins. The head attendant announced on the intercom, "This
aircraft is equipped with a video surveillance system that monitors the
cabin during taxiing. Any passengers not remaining in their seats until
the aircraft comes to a full and complete stop at the gate will be
strip-searched as they leave the aircraft."

There was a case in one hospital's Intensive Care ward where patients 
always died in the same bed, on Sunday morning, at about 11 a.m., 
regardless of their medical condition. This puzzled the doctors and some 
even thought that it had something to do with the supernatural. No one 
could solve the mystery as to why the deaths occurred around 11 a.m. on 
Sundays. So a World-Wide team of experts was assembled to investigate the 
cause of the incidents. The next Sunday morning, a few minutes before 11 
a.m., all doctors and nurses nervously wait outside the ward to see for 
themselves what the terrible phenomenon was all about. Some were holding 
wooden crosses, prayer books and other holy objects to ward off the evil 
spirits. Just when the clock struck 11..! . Pookie Johnson, The part-time 
Sunday sweeper, entered the ward and unplugged the life support system so 
that he could! ! ! ! use the vacuum cleaner.
