Odd News Friday

I just remembered that a long time ago I dubbed Fridays on CandyceLand as "Odd News Days." I love funny, odd, quirky stories about human nature, and there is never a shortage of options to share. Here is one that falls under the category of "What Was He Thinking?"

"An eastern Pennsylvania man was charged after he allegedly broke into a home, cut his hair and prepared fried chicken before being discovered. The man was charged with breaking into the home in Easton, about 50 miles north of Philadelphia. According to court documents, the homeowner returned home Sunday to discover him watching TV and cooking chicken.

Authorities said the man threw a rock through a front door window to get inside and appeared to have rummaged through every room in the house. He also took a shower. The man faces burglary, criminal trespass and other charges and was being held on $15,000 bail." (YAHOO News)

I wish the article were longer and included the reaction of the homeowner to this home invasion. Did the owner taste some of the chicken? Was it good? Was the burglar watching the Food Network while preparing the meal? Will the thief be charged with stealing soap and shampoo as well? And how about that haircut? Was it an attractive style for the features of his face?

Inquiring minds want to know. :-)

  1. I'm with you Candy. The homeowner reaction/conversation with the intruder would be interesting to learn.
