A new take on raising a family - Mr and Mrs Winklemeyer have 4 children, the youngest of whom is 5. They became happily married in the summer of 2002, and had three kids, like many happy American couples do. They put their kids in sports and sought to raise their kids with a healthy, effective parenting style. Then the unexpected happened, Mrs Winklemeyer became pregnant again with her youngest son, Tyler. This was a major surprise to them and admittedly, not a pleasant one. Their finances provided for 3 kids, and no more. They began to prepare and by the time Tyler was born, they had developed a plan. They would use their savings (originally for retirement) to feed and nurture the new born, but with the intention of it not lasting 18 years. The legal required age for parents to stop caring for their children is 18. They decided to celebrate Tyler's birthday at an accelerated rate, so that he would believe he was 18 years old, when he wasn't; effectively relieving them of their parental duties many years in advance.

Magician Turns Himself into Police, is Now Cop
WASHINGTON—Tuesday morning the police department was met by a man, Richard Thompson, demanding to turn himself into the police. He entered police headquarters at 9:20 AM wearing a white dress shirt, black slacks, and a top hat; and started causing a scene. After a crowd gathered, he raised up a circular curtain over his body, completely hiding himself for 5 seconds, then dropped the curtain revealing he was now a police officer in full uniform. After the stunt, he confessed that he had secretly completed the training required to be a cop, had tailored a custom uniform for himself, and used his prior knowledge of magic to pull it off. He could not be charged with impersonating an officer (a felony), because he had become one in front of everyone, leaving no doubt of his legitimacy.
