Received a new car from George Clooney

August 21, 2008 - 4:42 pm No Comments

George Clooney is on vacation in Italy. While driving he accidentally shunted a woman’s car from behind.

He accepted the blame and wanted to pay the woman for repairs. When she went to collect her vehicle from the repairers, she got a nice surprise. The movie star had bought her a new replica of her Lancia Ypsilon model. The cost of the car was £14,000.

There was even a note of apology on the windscreen, saying: “I’m so sorry. Hope you’ll forgive me. George Clooney.”

How lucky is she. Met her favorite actor and got a new car. :)

Stabbed over piece of cake

How tasty must a cake be for you to stab another person over it?

Two Italian pensioners ended in a fight over who would get the last piece of cake at an all-you-can-eat buffet.

When a 70 year old Niccolo Bruno grabbed the cake a second pensioner, Alfredo Mancini 62, stabbed his knife into the unfortunate Bruno at the food counter of a restaurant in Novate Milanese, northern Italy.

Mancini was then arrested when he tried to hobble out of the store on a walking stick and is facing jail on charges of bodily harm.

Bruno was taken to hospital but later released after doctors treated the stab wound.
