Goron_3 Posted December 30, 2006 Posted December 30, 2006 meh my year was alright. Only real good thing that came out of it was that i made a couple of more mates at school and that my GCSE results were good. Otherwise, bring on 07!
bob Posted December 30, 2006 Posted December 30, 2006 My year was ok i think. I got a really cool job in the summer, and got paid lots I went on holiday with my gf to Paris and spent pretty much all the money i earnt. Had quite a good year at uni. Went and saw the awesome Muse. Can't really remember much else that happened to be honest. Hopefully more memorable things will happen next year.

Haden Posted December 31, 2006 Posted December 31, 2006 Heres some classy storys from 2006 source (http://today.reuters.co.uk/news/articlenews.aspx?type=topNews&storyID=2006-12-31T133530Z_01_N28218357_RTRUKOC_0_UK-YEAR-ODDITIES.xml&pageNumber=0&imageid=∩=&sz=13&WTModLoc=NewsArt-C1-ArticlePage3) Some real classics here BERLIN (Reuters) - From the Turkish Airline workers who sacrificed a camel at Istanbul airport to celebrate a job well done to the German who invented snug spray-on condoms, the world was full of offbeat news in 2006. While "Miss Israel" Yael Nezri was exempted from carrying her assault rifle in the Israeli army because it bruised her beauty queen legs, "Mr. Switzerland" Renzo Blumenthal lured lonely women who hate football to his country for the World Cup. Careless thieves once again made headlines round the world. A burglar in Germany left behind a vital clue -- his finger tip. "We usually find finger prints but it's not every day that the thieves leave the original there too," a police spokesman said. It took only a few hours to track down the thief. A Jordanian salesman was arrested for trying to fleece a money exchanger with a fake ID card bearing a Brad Pitt picture. In Vienna, burglars fled after finding eight severed human heads. A dentist had stored the mummified heads for research. Village leaders in India ordered 150 men to dip their hands in boiling oil to prove their innocence after food was stolen. An Australian man stopped for drunk driving threatened police with a live snake he picked up off the road. In Cologne, a plastic surgeon cheated out of payment by two women using fake names gave "Wanted" pictures of their enlarged breasts to police. "It's probably the most unusual 'wanted' poster police ever had," wrote top-selling Bild newspaper, which helpfully published life-size pictures of the boosted breasts. There were tragic moments too. In Hanoi, a Vietnamese man famous on a national TV programme for his ability to resist electric shocks was electrocuted while fixing a generator. In Rio de Janeiro, a Brazilian man died when he tried to open a rocket-propelled grenade with a sledgehammer. STRANGE LOVE The political year began with a bang when U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney accidentally shot a friend on a quail hunt. In Hungary, Prime Minister Ferenc Gyurcsany sparked rioting by admitting he lied to win a general election. Prime Minister Tony Blair's wife Cherie pretended to slap a cheeky teenager for a photograph but was questioned by police after child protection officers reported her. In Bangkok, Thai coup leaders banned go-go girls from dancing near tanks and posing for photos with soldiers because they were distracting the troops. Random acts of bad judgement in 2006 included: the Philadelphia man who pulled a gun on his 7-year-old son's American football coach to demand more playing time; and in Koblenz, Germany, a woman who was caught driving her dead mother across country to save on mortuary transport costs. Two women working at the German Labour Office got into trouble for writing emails at work moaning about their dull sex lives -- and sending the exchange to thousands of co-workers. A pilot of Air Canada's Jazz subsidiary got locked out of the cockpit after stepping out to go to the washroom. Three doctors in India were caught by a TV camera agreeing to amputate healthy limbs of beggars who wanted more sympathy. Love had its strange moments too. Two prisoners in an Ivory Coast jail got married after falling in love through the peephole in an iron prison door. And in Finland, a court ruled against a woman in her 20s who charged a 74-year-old man 25,500 euros (17,200 pounds) to fondle her breasts on 10 occasions. "Based on general life experience, it is indisputably clear that a 25,500 euro charge is disproportionate to the compensation in question," Judge Hasse Hakki told Reuters.
