Couple in custody ties the knot
UPPSALA, Sweden (UPI) -- It was a case of double handcuffs when the car theft trial of a Swedish couple became courtroom nuptials in Uppsala criminal court.
The 42-year-old man and his 26-year-old girlfriend were waiting for a verdict in their trial Friday when they asked court personnel if they could pass the time by getting married, Aftonbladet reported.
The couple had a wedding planned for Monday, but decided to push up the date since they were in a courtroom anyway, Judge Jan Ulmander told The Local.
"I marry people in court the whole time, but it is unusual to be asked to marry people who are on trial," he said.
Unfortunately, the honeymoon will have to wait since the groom was sentenced to two months in jail. The new bride was convicted of being his accomplice but did not receive jail time.

Do fish drink water?
Moped Bill
Bristol, Connecticut
Dear Moped Bill:
Some fish drink the water they swim in, while others absorb it through osmosis. It just depends on whether the fish lives in freshwater or saltwater.
The MadSci Network explains that fish need to keep a certain concentration of salt in their bodies. Marine fish need to worry about preventing water loss, because they already get plenty of salt. They drink sea water, and their gills process the water but remove the salt. In fact, some saltwater fish lack properly functioning kidneys, in order to help avoid losing too much water.
Freshwater fish have the opposite problem: They need more salt. They absorb water through their skin and have effective ways of excreting excess liquid to maintain the salt they need.
Some fish have developed the ability to exist comfortably in both freshwater and saltwater -- the salmon and bull shark are notable examples. Bull sharks have been found far up the Mississippi and Amazon rivers, much to the surprise of people who believe sharks are found only in the salty, salty sea.

Condo burns as man shops for extinguisher
CHANDLER, Ariz. (UPI) -- An Arizona man's condo was nearly burned up while he ran off to Wal-Mart to buy a fire extinguisher.
Maricopa County authorities said 19-year-old Jonathan Zaltel of Chandler apparently started the blaze himself while cooking up a batch of methamphetamine in his closet using a toaster oven.
The Arizona Republic said the hapless Zaletel tried to put out the stubborn fire with water and window cleaner before deciding he needed a proper extinguisher and headed off for the local Wal-Mart.
The condo sprinkler system went on while he was gone and doused the flames, but Zaletel was arrested by police who were on the scene with the fire department upon his return.
"When you know the fire department is going to kick the door in no matter what, it wasn't very smart on his part," observed Deputy Doug Matteson.
No word on whether Zaletel used the express line to check out.

Hi bunny, Hi bobcat...
Mitch Walter, a water plant worker in Cape Girardeau, Missouri, was making his rounds at the treatment plant. While in his golf cart, a cute, fuzzy bunny jumped in. Awwwwwww. Then the 25 pound bobcat that was chasing the cute, fuzzy bunny jumped in, and the bunny jumped out. Walter shoved the bobcat out of the cart, but that ended with him getting scratched a lot, and a round of rabies shots.

Crafty Sisters of St. Francis
A man is driving down a deserted stretch of highway when he notices a sign out of the corner of his eye.... It reads:
SISTERS OF ST. FRANCIS
HOUSE OF PROSTITUTION
10 MILES
He thinks this is a figment of his imagination and drives on without a second thought.... Soon he sees another sign which reads:
SISTERS OF ST. FRANCIS
HOUSE OF PROSTITUTION
5 MILES
Suddenly he begins to realize that these signs are for real and drives past a third sign saying:
SISTERS OF ST. FRANCIS
HOUSE OF PROSTITUTION
NEXT RIGHT
His curiosity gets the best of him and he pulls into the drive. On the far side of the parking lot is a stone building with a small sign next to the door reading:
SISTERS OF ST. FRANCIS
He climbs the steps and rings the bell. The door is answered by a nun in a long black habit who asks, "What may we do for you my son?"
He answers, "I saw your signs along the highway and was interested in possibly doing business...."
"Very well my son. Please follow me." He is led through many winding passages and is soon quite disoriented. The nun stops at a closed door and tells the man, "Please knock on this door."
He does so and another nun in a long habit, holding a tin cup answers the door... This nun instructs, "Please place $100 in the cup then go through the large wooden door at the end of the hallway."
He puts $100 in the cup, eagerly trots down the hall and slips through the door pulling it shut behind him. The door locks, and he finds himself back in the parking lot facing another sign:
GO IN PEACE.
YOU HAVE JUST BEEN SCREWED BY THE SISTERS OF ST. FRANCIS. SERVES YOU RIGHT, YOU SINNER..

Mrs. O'Connor Wants a Divorce
"Well, Mrs. O'Connor, so you want a divorce?" the solicitor questioned his client. "Tell me about it. Do you have a grudge?"
"Oh, no," replied Mrs. O'Connor. "Sure now, we only have a carport."
The solicitor tried again. "Well, does the man beat you up?"
"No, no," said Mrs. O'Connor, looking puzzled. "I'm always first out of bed."
Still hopeful, the solicitor tried once again. "Well, does he go in for unnatural connubial practices?"
"Sure now, he plays the flute, but I don't think he knows anything about the connubial."
Now desperate, the solicitor pushed on. "What I'm trying to find out are what grounds you have."
"Bless you, sir. We live in a flat -- not even a window box, let alone grounds."
"Mrs. O'Connor," the solicitor said in considerable exasperation, "you need a reason that the court can consider. What is the reason for you seeking this divorce?"
"Ah, well now," said the lady, "Sure it's because the man can't hold an intelligent conversation."
"Oh, no," replied Mrs. O'Connor. "Sure now, we only have a carport."
The solicitor tried again. "Well, does the man beat you up?"
"No, no," said Mrs. O'Connor, looking puzzled. "I'm always first out of bed."

How to Call the Police When You're Old and Don't Move Fast Anymore...
George Phillips of Meridian, Mississippi was going up to bed when his wife told him that he'd left the light on in the garden shed, which she could see from the bedroom window.
George Opened the back door to go turn off the light but saw that there were people in the shed stealing things. He phoned the police, who asked "Is someone in your house?" and he said"no". Then they said that all patrols were busy, and that he should simply lock his door and an officer would be along when available.
George said, "Okay," hung up, counted to 30, and phoned the police again.
"Hello, I just called you a few seconds ago because there were people in my shed. Well, you don't have to worry about them now cause I've just shot them all." Then he hung up.
Within five minutes three police cars, an Armed Response unit, and an ambulance showed up at the Phillips' residence and caught the burglars red-handed.
One of the Policemen said to George: "I thought you said that you'd shot them!"
George said, "I thought you said there was nobody available!"
