Happy Halloween

Only in Alberta... This was in the Calgary Sun .... the
title of the article was "Best Comeback Line Ever."

In summary;
The police arrested Ward Branham, a 22-year-old white male,
resident of Lethbridge, Alberta, in a pumpkin patch at 11:38 p.m. on
Friday. Ward will be charged with lewd and lascivious behaviour,
public indecency, and public intoxication at the Calgary courthouse
on Monday. The suspect explained that as he was passing a pumpkin patch
he decided to stop. "You know, a pumpkin is soft and squishy
inside, and there was no one around there
for miles. At least I thought there wasn't," he stated in a phone interview. Ward went on
to say that he pulled over to the side of the road, picked out a
pumpkin that he felt was appropriate to his purposes, cut a hole in
it, and proceeded to satisfy his alleged "need."

"I guess I was just really into it, you know?" he commented
with evident embarrassment.
In the process, Ward apparently failed to notice a police
car approaching and was unaware of his audience until officer
Brin Taylor approached him.
"It was an unusual situation, that's for sure," said officer
Taylor. "I walked up to (Ward) and he's...just working away at this
pumpkin. "Taylor went on to describe what happened when SHE approached
Ward."I just went up and said, "Excuse me sir, but do you realize
that you are screwing a pumpkin?"

He froze and was clearly very surprised that I was there,
and then looked me straight in the face and said... "A pumpkin?
Damn...is it midnight already?"
