D'IBERVILLE, Miss. (AP) — A man in southern Mississippi is accused of trying to walk out of a D'Iberville grocery store without paying for food items he'd stuffed into his cargo shorts including live lobsters.
Police Chief Wayne Payne says 35-year-old Nathan Mark Hardy was arrested Saturday after allegedly being caught stuffing food into his cargo shorts — two bags of jumbo shrimp, a pork loin and two live lobsters.
Payne says Hardy, of Biloxi, tried to escape by throwing the pork loin at employees at the local Winn Dixie but fell while running away. He was arrested at the scene.
The shoplifting charge is a misdemeanor, but Hardy remained jailed Wednesday in the Harrison County jail with no bond pending a hearing on a probation violation.
Martin Kessman, Overweight Man, Sues White Castle Because He Can't Fit In Seats
A 290-pound man is suing the White Castle fast food chain because, he claims, their seats aren't built for a person of his size. Stock broker Martin Kessman took legal action last week, 2 years after complaining to the corporate office about the size of the stationary booths at White Castle's Nanuet, N.Y., location.
According to the Kessman, White Castle responded with three �gvery condescending letters," each of which included a coupon for three free hamburgers, but "the cheese was extra," he notes in his lawsuit. White Castle also sent Kessman plans for for how they were going to modify their booths, but no adjustments had been made as of last week.
Kessman's beef is unique to White Castle -- he claims to have no issue with seating at other fast-food establishments or on airplanes.

Another frivolous lawsuit...so does this fool sue the airline companies too when he can not get his wide load to fit in the seat? Or does he fly cargo with the chickens in the back? He probably does b/c he thinks they constitute the in flight "snack."

LOL.
He can't fly in cargo, 'cause he can't fit through the cargo X-ray machine.

Dude, you better believe it...a long time ago I was flying on business with a colleague from work...this guy was the fattest, shortest guy I had ever met...he actually had to ask for an extension because the seatbelt on the plane wasn't long enough to span his girth. Dayem.

I heard/read stories of some people having to buy two plane tickets because of their size.
Seemingly drunk Swedish moose found stuck in tree.
(09-08) 07:38 PDT STOCKHOLM, (AP) --
A seemingly intoxicated moose has been discovered entangled in an apple tree by a stunned Swede.
Per Johansson says he heard a roar from his vacationing neighbor's garden in southwestern Sweden late Tuesday and went to have a look. There, he found a female moose kicking about in the tree. The animal was likely drunk from eating fermented apples.
With the help of police and rescue services, the 45-year-old Johansson later managed to set the moose free in part by sawing off tree branches.
But the animal appeared confused and wandered into Johansson's garden, where she was still resting Thursday.
Other neighbors in the Goteborg suburb Saro had seen the animal sneaking around the area for days. Johansson said the moose appeared to be sick, drunk or "half-stupid."
Penn Forgets To Tell Students That Their Prof Died
The school year got off to a rocky start for one class at the University of Pennsylvania.
According to Under the Button, Professor Henry Teune's political science class convened last week only to be told that their professor had passed away over the summer.
Incredibly, the students received notice during class -- in the form of an email -- that their professor had died. (Click over to Under the Button to read it.)
The Daily Pennsylvanian reports that Teune, a much-loved professor, had worked at the college since 1961. He was 75.
