In The News:

This Guy Loves His Beer!

Bill Bramanti will love Pabst Blue Ribbon eternally, and he’s got the custom-made beer-can casket to prove it. “I actually fit, because I got in here,” said Bramanti of South Chicago Heights.

The 67-year-old Glenwood village administrator doesn’t plan on needing it anytime soon, though. Until he “kicks it”, he has other great plans for his coffin...like the party he recently had for friends where he filled his silver coffin - designed in Pabst’s colors of red, white and blue - with ice and his favorite brew.

“Why put such a great novelty piece up on a shelf in storage when you could use it only the way Bill Bramanti would use it?” said Bramanti’s daughter, Cathy Bramanti, 42.

Man Breaks World Record For Holding Breath:

Who knew it was possible, but Magician David Blaine recently held his breath for an astonishing 17 minutes! Of course, there have been plenty of other people to hold their breath that long, but they were DEAD! This guy actually survived the stunt and was able to speak with Television host, Opera, shortly after.

This was no trick or goof; just good old fashioned breath holding. Well, maybe not old fashioned... he floated in a giant fishbowl-like structure, designed from acrylic, that cost him about $200,000 dollars to build. But, beside that space-age holding cage, it was ALL DAVID!

Just Joking:

Wedding Poll:

At a wedding, the D.J. polled the guests to see who had been married the longest. The winners were then asked, “What advice do you have for the newlyweds?”

The wife quickly responded, “The three most important words in a marriage are ‘You’re probably right’.” Everyone then looked at the husband.

He said, “Yeah, she’s probably right!”

Amazing Watch:

A man walks into a bar and sits down next to a beautiful woman.

“I just got this amazing watch,” he tells her, “it can reads alpha waves, and can tell me what a person is thinking.”

“What does it say about me?” asked the woman.

“It says you want to go out on a date with me.” said the man.

“Sorry,” said the blonde, “I think your watch is broken.”

“Hmmm,” said the man slowly examining the watch, “It seems to be running an hour fast...”

Pirate Tales:

A seaman meets a pirate in a bar, and talk turns to their adventures on the sea. The seaman notes that the pirate has a peg-leg, a hook, and an eye patch.

The seaman asks, “So, how did you end up with the peg-leg?” The pirate replies, “We were in a storm at sea, and I was swept overboard into a school of sharks. Just as my men were pulling me out, a shark bit my leg off.”

“Wow!” said the seaman. “What about your hook”? “Well”, replied the pirate, “We were boarding an enemy ship and were battling the other sailors with swords. One of the enemy cut my hand off.”

“Incredible!” remarked the seaman. “How did you get the eye patch”? “A seagull dropping fell into my eye,” replied the pirate.

“You lost your eye to a seagull dropping?,” the sailor asked incredulously. “Well,” said the pirate, “it was my first day with my hook”
