TWO STORIES OUT OF WV

Ok, before I post this, I just have to say....why is it the wierdest and sometimes dumbest stories come out of my state. :(

FIRST STORY:
US MARSHALL SUES ZICAM FOR LOSS OF SMELL

William L. Seckman, 42, from Putnam County, WV is sueing the makers of Zicam because his loss of smell can put him in danger of unknowingly being exposed to Meth Labs. Seckman took the over-the-counter drug Zicam nasally, after which he lost his sense of smell and partial loss of taste. He is concerned because his job as a federal law enforcement officer can sometimes expose him to Methanphetamine Labs, which are harmful to come in contact with. Normally, an individual would be able to smell a Meth lab, its distinctive odor or ammonia or rotten eggs.

- I heard about this as a class action law suit. I heard there were alot of people who lost their sense of smell.

STORY TWO:
MAN ATTEMPTS ROBBERY WITH A LIGHTER AND PANTIES ON HIS HEAD

Inwood, WV
Recently a theif using a pistol-shaped cigarette lighter and blue panties on his face botched a robbery at a convience store. At first the cashier thought it was a joke and refused to give the man any money, so he ran to a Jeep Cherokee and drove away. He and an accomplice were stopped minutes later when police matched his vehicle with the description given.

- Here we go, another stupid story from WV. Why do we always have idiots representing us?
