It strikes me funny sometimes the newspaper clippings I stash in the Tupperware bin under my desk.
I got a kick out of this one:
“A Florida man has been arrested for calling 911 several times to report that his mother stole his beer.” (June 2, London Free Press)
["Son, step back from the beer fridge."]
I can understand a mom stealing a beer from her son on occasion. Hey, it gets hot in Florida and sometimes it’s just easier to ‘borrow a beer’ than make the trip to the corner store.
But, how desperate (loaded, unbalanced, _________, insert another adjective here) do you have to be to call 911 to get police to arrest your mom?
How tough (ornery, loaded - as in packin’ heat - insert another adjective here _________ ) does your mother have to be to need the help of police to guard your beer fridge?
It takes all kinds.

What would a suitable punishment be for the son?
Got any words for the mom?
