Weird BUT true

A fallen-off-the-wagon Australian woman was busted for riding a horse to a bar allegedly while drunk.

The 51-year-old gal was allegedly guzzling wine from a bottle when cops caught her trotting to the Logan City Tavern in Queensland.

Police took both the horse and woman into custody.

The gal was jailed to let her sleep it off while her ride was led home. Now he’s in the can. A Louisiana man got so angry at his neighbor for trying to eat one of his canned Vienna sausages that he sliced her face with a knife, police said.

The beef began when the woman asked Donald Traylor, 58, of Union Parish, to share part of his canned meal and he turned her down, according to cops.

During an ensuing scuffle, he cut her on the right side of her nose and got busted, police said.

It was a hot piece of art, and it stunk to high hell.

A piece featuring rotting fish burst into flames at a British art gallery.

South Korean artist Lee Bul was showing “Majestic Splendor” — featuring dead fish bedazzled with sequins — at London’s Hayward Gallery when it spontaneou­sly combusted due to “preserving agents.”

Also, theartnews­paper.com reported that in 1997, “Majestic Splendor” was pulled from the Museum of Modern Art in New York City because its stench nauseated visitors.

A pastor was performing a baptism at a lake in Ethiopia when a crocodile charged from the water and killed him.

Docho Eshete, 45, was at Lake Abaya in Arba Minch when the croc struck.

A car owner in parkingsqu­eezed Hong Kong paid $760,000 for a single space at an apartment complex.

The 16.4-by-8.2-foot spot cost $5,360 per square foot — far more than the average price per square foot of an apartment in the city.
