Man Lassos Dogs Trapped In Canal
09/05/11 -- Wacky News
“Noya Deats’ routine walk along the Roza Canal turned disastrous Wednesday when her two dogs, Fawn and Nia, decided to take a swim. Despite signs warning folks to stay out of the canal, she said she’s let her dogs off their leash before without any problems. But once in the water, neither dog could get out because of the swift current. Unsure what to do, Deats ran alongside the canal to keep up with them while she called her husband, Matt, and the police. Noya had run about two miles when Matt, who works for Comprehensive Mental Health in Yakima, arrived. “I was almost throwing up at that time,” she said. “I was running and talking on the phone at that time.” Matt climbed down a canal ladder, his body half submerged in the water, and reached out to grab one of the dogs. He barely touched her collar as she passed by. Meanwhile, a Yakima County Sheriff’s deputy attempted to lasso the dogs with a rope. Although Fawn, a Labrador mix, seemed to be keeping her head above water, Nia, an Australian shepherd mix, was struggling, Matt said. “I was trying to figure out a safe way to try and jump in and grab them myself,” he said. “You feel hopeless — you don’t know what to do, how to handle it.” Then, roughly three miles from where the dogs had entered the canal — behind Roy Farms off Walters Road — a good Samaritan came to the rescue.” w/ photo

Massive Kid
09/04/11 -- Hilarious
“Despite being only 11-years-old, local kid David Bailey is absolutely fucking massive—just an absolute Mack truck of a boy—astonished sources. According to witnesses, Bailey, who reportedly hasn’t even reached puberty yet, has got to be well over 100 pounds, and, no shit, is probably close to 6 feet tall. Sources further confirmed that Bailey has always been a big boy, and that his parents, Rebecca and George Bailey, aren’t exactly the sort of people you would call petite. “Just look at the size of him,” mesmerized neighbor Kelly Hamilton said while watching Bailey shoot baskets in his driveway. “He’s not fat, either, just really… well, dense. No two ways about it, that kid is built like a brick shithouse.” “And the crazy thing is, he’s not done growing yet—not by a long shot,” Hamilton continued. ‘Christ almighty, would you just look at him? What the hell are they feeding him over there?” w/ photo
