Weird true BUT

In Chicago City Hall hangs the picture of every Windy City mayor but one — the longest serving chief executive, Richard M. Daley.

Sitting Mayor Rahm Emanuel says his office is trying to get Daley, who was in office for 22 years, to come back for a big ceremony.

But a source close to the former mayor said, “Nobody wants a ceremony for a photo. That’s crazy. Who would say yes to that?”

This joyous reunion was 27 years in the making.

A retired Bethlehem, Pa., paramedic, who once performed mouth-to-mouth on a premature newborn, recently met that now-adult patient for the first time since.

A.J. Heightman, 62, and Rodney Barron Jr., 26, had an emotional reunion that included Barron’s newborn.

Barron Jr. said, “He saved my life. It was wonderful that he got to meet my son.”

Bookworms are welcomed — but book bedbugs, not so much.

Five books inside the Carson City Library in Nevada had to be removed after bedbugs were found inside them.

Another 34 have been quarantined as a precaution.

Llama on the loose! Massachusetts state police praised the cowboy skills of one of their troopers after he lassoed a llama running down a highway.

Trooper Matthew Kane grabbed a rope, fashioned it into a lasso, slung it around the llama’s neck and led the animal to safety.

Resistance to Canadian authorities is really futile.

Manitoba officials took back Nick Troller’s personalized “Star Trek” license plate over fears it would offend indigenous people.

Troller was forced to hand over “ASIMIL8,” a reference to the evil alien Borg. His license-plate holder reads, “Resistance is futile.”

Ry Moran of the Canadian National Center for Truth and Reconciliation pointed out, “Indigenous peoples [in Canada] have been forcibly assimilated through really extremely destructive means.”
