MIKE PINGREE'S
THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS
UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT: Within hours after the Aqua Clara Motel was shut down because it was a haven for prostitutes and drug dealers, it was taken over by Clearwater, Fla., police officers posing as prostitutes and drug dealers. Members of the local underworld simply assumed they were still dealing with real criminals like themselves, and were very surprised when they were arrested.
WHERE TO, GENTS? After stealing a video camera, a VCR, a stereo and some jewelry from a New York apartment, two burglars hailed a cab that happened to be driven by an undercover police officer who was patrolling the area.
SQUIRT, SQUIRT, SQUIRT, KA-BLAM! Police in Bangkok have been ordered not to carry water pistols during the four-day New Year festival, a time when police traditionally squirt each other in celebration of the imminent rainy season. The chief is afraid that his men will accidentally pull out the wrong gun.
OK, THAT'S SIX, CARRY THE ONE: The wrong team was declared the winner of the Iowa State Math Championship, because officials calculated the scores incorrectly. The judges were off by 60 points.
WHAT GAVE ME AWAY, OFFICER? A Florida jail inmate stole his orange prison jumpsuit when he was released and then, a few months later, wore it to a rock concert where many sheriff's deputies were providing security. After they grabbed him, the cops found out he wasn't even supposed to be there because he was sentenced to house arrest as a condition of his parole. He is back behind bars.
