Weird News
At least one judge in recent years accepted the defense of mistaken sexual intercourse when a man enters a dark bedroom and initiates sex with a woman he believes is his sexual partner, only to discover that it is another resident of the home. In a recent case, Paul Chappell, 31, raised the defense at his trial in Sydney, Australia, claiming that he (reportedly intoxicated) erroneously stumbled into bed with his new girlfriend's female housemate. Since the housemate's boyfriend was elsewhere in the house, she assumed that the boyfriend had decided to come to bed and that it was he having sex with her.
A three-year study at the PET Center at Arhus Hospital in Copenhagen, Denmark, reported in March, affirmed that the designer drug Ecstasy can cause depression in pigs.
Drawing heavy fire from critics in March was a Cdn$150,000 (US$135,000) grant from the Ontario government to researchers at Laurentian University, for the purpose of studying the sex drives of squirrels

I think I will go into the business of writing grants to study depressed pigs and horny squirrels....easier than trying to sneak into Ty Pennington's bedroom and claim it was an accident.
I can see it now, Carrie, CEO of Depression and Horniness Inc.
Instead of S&M it'll be D&H- are you more depressed when you are horny, or does being horny create depression?- not you personally, just thinking of the title to my grant...
Okay, Carrie, CEOD&HWTF.
