News that you can't use....

We all hear about real news,bad news,but I thought I share some not so real,or whacky news of the day.

Man.Slow Modem Should Burn In Hell.......

Officails responding to a complaint of smoke one morning
were led to a barbequuing his computer modem in his
back yard. The 39 year old from Janesville,Wisc, told
police he was sick of it operating so slowly,and decided
to grill it up to make it work faster.
His wife told police this isn't his first time he'd destroyed a modem in anger.
Previous instance,she says have involved
smashing them out of windows. Police extinguished the smoldering modem,but
were unable to save it. The dial-up device was unfortunately a totol loss.

This was from a tabloid,what will people do for money.
