Latest Wendy's Finger News

Life in San Jose, California sure ain't dull. First there's the story of Anna Ayala who claimed that she found 1½" of female finger in her bowl of Wendy's chili during a March 22 family visit.

Ayala was subsequently arrested at her Las Vegas home on charges alleging attempted grand larceny of millions of dollars, potential trade, lost by Wendy's since Ayala's claim broke in the news.

Seems that no one working for the Wendy's chain has lost a finger and experts who examined the digit said that it didn't appear to have been boiled up in the chili. Added to that Anna Ayala appears to have instigated about a dozen other compensation claims in the past.

Fact remains that, hoax or not, it was a real finger and must have belonged to someone. You would think that in this hi-tech age of DNA testing ..... Well maybe not.

Brings a whole new slant to Wendy's claim to be "keeping in touch with the community."

Today there's a report in SFGate.com about San Jose police shooting and killing an 80 pound mountain lion trapped up a backyard tree by a woman's two pet dogs. Pet dogs!

Police said they decided to kill the animal because tranquilizer darts would not take immediate affect. I don't know about that - they bring rhinos down with them and they weigh a lot more than 80 pounds. Sure you had a tranquilizer gun with you guys?

Found a really nice story in rahrahfeminista2 - Like a dali painting. Washing machines at work! How many hours a week are these people expected to work or do they get snowed in regularly? Nice bit of Colin Powell name dropping too. The blog's also indirectly how I came across this picture from the Denver Channel. Left click on the picture to get the sequence.
