Weird but true
Talk about hay fever.
A seemingly harmless senior class prank at Durango HS in Colorado shut down classes for a week after 30 bales of hay were spread throughout the hallways.
The hay caused air-quality problems and will cost more than $100,000 to clean up.

A California woman peddling what she said was a moon rock certainly got the attention of NASA, which sent undercover investigators to meet her at a Denny’s in Lake Elsinore, Calif., to “buy” the alleged lunar material.
The agents offered $1.7 million, and when the woman produced it, federal agents grabbed her. It wasn’t immediately clear whether she was charged.

His midlife crisis hit home.
A British man turned his garage into a living room so he could spend quality time at home in with his bright-yellow, $60,000, 1996 Ferrari F355 Spider.
“Now the car takes pride of place in our home,” Jon Ryder said.

These “vicious” teens were punished for killing a chicken — for a school barbecue.
Two students planning a high-school cookout sparked a firestorm when one, who raises chickens at home, took two of the doomed fowl to Brooke HS in West Virginia for the cookout.
A teacher saw a student kill one of the birds and stopped the second slaughter.

That’s one way to keep the kids quiet.
A New Kensington, Pa., baby sitter allegedly fed a 12-year-old girl in her care and two other kids margarine-laced marijuana that she kept in a tub of I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter.
The woman apparently told the girl the green-speckled stuff she had put on the child’s toast was “parsley butter,” police said.
