Not all news is depressing. Just the news on TV.

I've been reading the news lately.

A donkey has been sent to jail in the Nile Delta in Egypt for stealing corn!
The donkey and its owner were both arrested by police after the donkey was found in possession of corn on the cob stolen from a field belonging to the local Agricultural Research Institute.
A special checkpoint had been set up to trap the perpetrators after the Institute’s director complained that someone was stealing his crops.
Later, a local judge sentenced the donkey to 24 hours in prison, whilst the owner escaped a custodial sentence and received only a fine of $9.



A hotel guest in the Netherlands received a nasty surprise when she visited the toilet in her room - a live 2.5 meter python!
The woman immediately alerted the local police, who discovered the snake had climbed up the drain from a room below.
After further investigation police found more snakes, frogs, salamanders, geckos and even a baby crocodile in the room below!
The majority of the rare animals were stored in boxes and bags, but two of the geckos had been walking around freely.
In total approximately 30 exotic rare animals were found.
Dutch police later arrested three men and a women, all from Rome, for trading illegally in rare animals.

30 animals? In one room? Plus 4 other people?! I just have one question. How did they sneek all those animals in the hotel room? I don't get it.
And one last one:


A 33-year-old woman in Wisconsin stole her daughter’s identity to enroll at school because she wanted to be a cheerleader!
Wendy Brown, of Green Bay, Wisconsin, allegedly used her 15-year-old daughter’s ID to become a student at Ashwaubenon High School. She attended cheerleading practices before school started and was given a cheerleader locker, and even went to a party at the cheerleading coach’s house.
She paid for the locker using a $134.50 check that later bounced!
Suspicion arose after she stopped attending school after the first day, prompting a truancy investigation that led to the discovery of her true identity.
Kim Demeny, a high school employee commented that she appeared older than a normal teenager, but had the demeanour of a high-school girl.
The woman told police she wanted to get her high school diploma and become a cheerleader because she didn’t have a childhood and wanted to regain a part of her life that she’d missed.
After further investigation authorities found that her 15-year-old daughter was living in Nevada with her grandmother who has custody of the child.

Hmmm. No comment.
