There's a reason for the wink...

Ah, the fine line between anatomy and, well, anatomy. Church-goers are incensed by a rather questionable depiction of the Savior, although not everyone agrees.

Seeton said the portion of the crucifix in question is meant to be Jesus’ abdomen “showing distension” — not a penis.

Seeton said, “I’ve had people who have vocally said that that’s what they see there. I’ve had people who have been just as vocal who said that’s not what they’re seeing there.”

“I think he’s an 8-year old child and he’s doing what 8-year old children do.”

Be that as it may, I still think there’s a definite question of exactly how an eight-year-old third-grader managed to get his hands on 78 bags of heroin.

Twelve-year-old Frankie and her mother were arrested for trespassing in a U.S. senator’s office. At least in this case the mother was punished as well.

Espeland (the mother) was told that if Frankie didn’t leave the office, she would be arrested for criminal trespass, according to the police report. Espeland allegedly told police she wasn’t going to tell Frankie to leave, and “felt it was important for her daughter to be arrested for the cause.”

…I believe that’s what we would call child abuse, folks.

What truly baffles the mind is the fact that she was able to get onto the landing strip with her “weapon“.

I use quotation marks as, against an airplane, she might as well have simply been throwing rocks.

checkbook?

Though most of us haven’t had to use a “dog ate my homework” excuse since elementary school (and some of us not even then), this woman seemed to think her claim reasonable enough.
