Here's 2 more......GEEK OF THE WEEK

(Should’ve used the howitzer...)

A Pennsylvania man missed a mouse he was trying to shoot and wounded his girlfriend instead. Police say Donald Rugg was trying to kill the rodent with a .22-calibre handgun when his girlfriend got into the line of fire and was hit in the arm. Cathy Harris is in stable condition in hospital. Police say they won’t charge Rugg, but advises against people shooting firearms indoors.

(Gas flusher.)

It’s the flush that ended in a flash and a bang. Officials in Salt Lake City, Utah report an apartment tenant wanted to get rid of some gasoline that had been leaking from his car. So, he caught the gas in a container and brought it inside and dumped it in the toilet. Big mistake. Authorities theorize the gasoline fumes were ignited by the pilot light of a hot water tank. The resulting blast destroyed the toilet and sparked a fire causing 75-thousand dollars U.S. in damages. All four people inside the building at the time managed to escape without injury.
