Silly Things To Do In An Elevator

Hey, c’mon, we’ve all been in this situation - crowded elevator car, eyes down on your shoes or up watching the counter light move. Surely we can have more fun than that. And yes, some of these gags have been in circulation for a while, yet while not all are entirely original, they are indeed good for a few laughs. Put on your silly hat for this one, envision it actually happening, or even better, picture yourself doing some of this stuff.
This is just a goofy list for fun

From Missing To Murdered Photo Gallery

Aliahna Lemmon

Aliahna Lemmon, 9, went missing Friday on December 23, 2011. She and her sisters had been staying with neighbor/family friend Mike Plumadore, 39, while her mother, Tarah Souders, 28, recovered from the flu. Souder told police that Aliahna, who was hard of hearing and had Attention Deficit Disorder, needed supervision that her husband, who worked nights and slept during the day, was unable to provide. Plumadore, who had watched the children before, was the one who called to report Aliahna as missing. Police were concerned because there were 15 registered sex offenders living in the area where the girl had disappeared. On Monday, sadly, police found Aliahna's body and arrested Plumadore, whom they had already interviewed several times. He allegedly confessed to beating her to death with a brick, and then dismembering her body. He stored her head, hands and feet in his freezer, and dumped the rest of her remains in garbage bags. Though Plumadore has a police record in Florida, it does not include sex offenses. No motive has been established for the murder.

Karl Lagerfeld is not stranger to technology if we all think back to his pre-fall 2008 lightbulb shoe, which has undoubtedly inspired his footwear for the Chanel Couture fall 2011/12 show.

5 Strangest Deaths Of All Time

Life is full of the weird, the wonderful and the outrageous. People often overlook the fact that death can come in many forms. Here are a few of the strangest deaths that have occurred through the ages.

Molière

Born in 1622, the Fench actor and playwright Jean Baptiste Poquelin, better known by his stage name, Molière, was considered a giant of the comedy genre. Famed for his farces, Molière was a hero of the stage and, despite falling foul of certain religious groups, enjoyed immense popularity in his lifetime. (The King of France even agreed to be the godfather to his son!)

Unfortunately for him, he died the way he lived - being laughed at. The end came during a performance of his last play Le Malade Imaginaire, normally translated in English as The Hypchondriac.

Whilst he was treading the boards in the titular role, acting out to be someone pretending to be ill, he was struck by a very real fit of coughing and haemorrhaging and promptly died. Obviously, nobody moved to help him, putting the fit’s uncanny authenticity down to the craft of a master thespian, rather than pulmonary tuberculosis.

Thai Recipe : Son-In-Law Eggs

This past weekend, our neighborhood Ralph was giving away free eggs–a carton of 18 large eggs. Being the cheapo shopper that I am, I didn’t pass up the opportunity, of course. I have always loved eggs and I do shop at Ralph, plus more eggs mean I can experiment with some baking and make my favorite egg dishes such as the Malaysian Sweet and Sour Eggs, and Shrimp Omelet.

He's charged with the January shooting death of Brian Jones. Now he's having a little difficulty maintaining his courtroom decorum.
