Talk about pig heaven!
A Michigan man, concerned about the heat wave, has installed a shower in the pigpen that holds his children’s three little pigs.
When Isaac Murray of Traverse City told wife Judith what he planned, she couldn’t believe it.
“I thought the kids should just go out and spray them a couple of times a day – that’s what 4-H says to do,” she said.
The shower runs automatically for two minutes every two hours, all day long.

A Florida couple has been denied their license to slur.
State officials have ordered Phil and Fran Lascola of Valrico to return the “2 Dagos” license plate they were issued for their BMW 18 months ago, saying some people feel it’s an ethnic insult.
“We’re Italians, we’re not slamming anybody,” said Phil Lascola, who is considering hiring a lawyer to challenge the state’s ruling.
“This isn’t a bad word. People call us dagos all the time,” he noted.

Cops say Chubby’s Pizza in South Lebanan, Ohio, was a real pizza joint. Its customers got pizza and pot to go.
All they had to do was order a pie with “special seasonings” and they got a hoagy bag packed with dope, said Warren County Task Force Commander John Burke.
Concerned because the pizzeria regularly caters to county jurors, cops made some undercover buys and bagged a longtime store employee on drug-trafficking charges.

The villagers in Dobratic, Bosnia, have put a beer-loving neighborhood bear on the wagon.
The 2-year-old bear developed a taste for the brew after he started gulping down the contents of discarded beer cans he found around the village.
No problem – except when he spent his nights drunkenly “singing” from a nearby meadow.
The locals tried giving him soda instead, but he wasn’t interested. They finally helped him kick the habit – and end his nocturnal singing – by getting him to drink non-alcoholic beer.

An Atlantic City man has complained to casino regulators about the sultry, leggy bikini-clad model who appears in several Trump Taj Mahal billboard ads, claiming they’re “offensive.”
“What does low-cut have to do with casinos?” asked Clarence Williams.
Everything, Trump says.
“She absolutely personifies the Trump image,” said Taj Mahal spokeswoman Suze DiPietro. “She’s exotic. She’s beautiful. I wish I looked as good.”
