Man uses "talking dog" to snag free meal
A penniless patron attempted to get a free meal from a restaurant by claiming his dog could talk!
The incredulous manager agreed to give the "talking dog" a shot, so the pooch's owner then asked, "What covers a tree?"
"Bark", replied the mutt, a dachshund/chihuahua mix.
"What is on top of a house," the patron again asked, and the dog answered "roof!"
The manager, sensing a scam, stepped in with his own query. "Who's the greatest player in baseball?" He asked.
The dog replied, "roof!"
At that, the man — and his pet — were ejected. Just then a Fun Times reporter stumbled upon the dazed pair picking themselves up off the sidewalk.
Seeking an explanation, the dog wryly responded, "I fink I should have said "Babe Roof."

Purse Snatcher Foiled — by Man Dressed as a Giant Coconut

Artist's conception of South Florida superhero Captain Coconuts BOYNTON BEACH — A local shopper got more than she bargained for when a wannabe purse-snatcher was scared off — by a man dressed as a giant coconut!

"I was shopping for stuff for my daughter's newborn when this thug comes up to me and grabs my purse," the unidentified woman told the Fun Times. "Suddenly a huge coconut steps out in front of him shouting 'halt, thief!'"

Artist's conception of South Florida superhero "Captain Coconuts"

"The crook dropped my purse and fled screaming," she said. "Since he didn't get my stuff I didn't bother calling cops." She added that as he left, the coconut guy referred to himself as South Florida superhero "Captain Coconuts."

"He was wearing a cape, had a big "C" on the front of his suit, and carried a bag full of coconuts," she said. "That sure spooked the purse-snatcher — and me too, I must say. That look strikes fear in the hearts of anyone."

If her story holds up, "Captain Coconuts" joins a burgeoning list of "real life superheroes" sprouting up across America, donning bizarre, colorful costumes to fight crime. "Orlando (Florida) boasts a costumed crime-fighter known as "Master Legend," says a local cartoonist, "so it makes sense that South Florida would eventually get its own home-grown superhero, whether they want it or not."

According to Fun Times research, these colorful comic book-style vigilantes are generally kept in line by professional law enforcement agencies who show little tolerance for freelance crime-fighting. "We'll bust this guy if he's caught breaking laws, no matter what the reason," said one professional. "He'd make a great coloring book character, and that's about it."

But at least one such character, Orlando's "Master Legend", received a sheriff's commendation for his assistance during a 2004 hurricane.

No "Captain Coconuts" sightings have been reported since the alleged purse-snatching incident, however the South Florida Fun Times is keeping an eye out for him, and hopes you do too. Report Captain Coconuts sightings here.
