Consumer Tip On
What Not To Buy!
News Brief

I went all out and spent 20 bucks on a watch. It's junk...absolute junk. I guess it must be an imitation of an imitation. At least it's right twice a day, but what do you expect for twenty bucks...a high performance timepiece ? For $ 49.95, you can get yourself the top of the line Timex, and it'll keep on ticking long after your heart gives out. Don't spend your hard earned 20 bucks on this junk. All those little dials that look fancy don't really work, and the sun position dial is crap. Looking for accuracy ? Look again, cause you won't find it here !!


Consumer Feedback:

"I knew it was crap when I got to work 1 hour late...the accuracy is far below what one expects."

"The little handles don't work, and it looks like a real crappy cheapo watch. "

Hijacker parachutes out of 747
Budapest -A hijacker parachuted out of a 747 at 28000 feet over the skies of Hungary. He was carrying a 25000 dollar ransom in a knapsack and leaped out of the plane, apparently in a planned sky dive to safety. However, witnesses on the plane saw the hijacker jump out the plane door and get sucked into one of the enormous engines. Body parts were ejected out of the exhaust and it doesn't seem likely that the hijacker made it safely to the ground. Witnesses on the ground did not see any parachute open. Residents of towns on the flight path reported finding american currency at various locations, apparently strewn throughout the countryside. Police also believe that the hijacker met his death in the engine of the 747, and do not expect to find any remains. Before jumping out of the plane, the hijacker's last words were - " Bet you thought I couldn't pull this off !".
