Imagine that...

A society that has such good public transportation that they could even CONSIDER this:

EU to ban cars from cities by 2050

Cars will be banned from London and all other cities across Europe under a draconian EU masterplan to cut CO2 emissions by 60 per cent over the next 40 years.

Run! Dear god, RUN!

Beware of the dwarf!

Stockholm, Sweden (AHN) - Travelers using long-distance buses are being warned to take extra caution after Swedish police said cases of thieves using midgets in robbing long-distance coaches is on the rise.

Police said the thieves are able to steal from the unsuspecting bus passengers by sneaking the dwarves into the luggage holds in sports bags and once they are inside, the midgets out from the bags and sift through the luggage of the train passengers.

Once they have collected their loot, the dwarves sneaked back to their sports bags and just wait to be picked up when the coach reaches its destination.

Police said this modus operandi of the thieves have enabled them to steal thousands of pounds in cash, gems and other valuables over the past months.

Favorite target of the thieves-using-dwarves are Swebus buses, which services British passengers across Sweden.

"We have had reports about several thefts by dwarves on the stretch between Vasteras and Stockholm," said a spokesman for Swebus. "We're thinking of installing video cameras."

Definitely a good idea.

Finally!! We get a picture of the bus

That Bush and Cheney are determined to drive off the cliff. Apparently allows for flipflopping and changing the course wildly mid-flip!

Can we see if a steering wheel is installed? Or does it only make hard right turns?
