Breakin' The Law'I'd taken some mushrooms in a pub,' writes Allen Smithee, 'and things had got a bit odd. People turning into goblins, barstools into toadstools etc. I wandered off from my friends and found myself in a carpark. I noticed a huge liquorice allsort driving towards me and Bertie Basset got out. I kinda realised that Bertie was a policeman and my brain went into paranoid fast forward. I decided that I must be being arrested and said, "I'll just get in the back of your car, Officer" Bertie looked at me with disgust, "Not bleeding likely sunshine. Just piss off home ok?"'

those wacky japanesethis happened to a friend of mine who was spending his gap year teaching english in a japanese girl's school. (bastard - what happens next is probably karmic)
he was on his way to work on the tokyo subway and was picked up by the japanese police. they asked him where he was yesterday and he says had a day off. the day in question was the day of the sarin gas attack.
he explains he's teaching for a year before going to university. "what will you be studying?" "err.. chemistry". things get very intense all of a sudden (it turns out they were looking for a foreigner at the time), and he gets held for 24 hours while they check him out. luckily on his day off he'd gone to visit northern japan, so he had a pretty cast-iron alibi and they let him go.
