Bikini baristas arrested for allegedly exposing themselves for tips

The owner and three employees of a bikini barista stand called "Java Juggs" in Edmonds have been arrested for investigation of exposing themselves to customers for big tips, Edmonds police said Thursday. The bigger the Juggs the bigger the tips.

Sneaky Edmonds cops posed as customers in plain clothes and took video recordings of baristas exposing themselves, taking time to assure themselves the women's body parts being revealed were real.

"Some of the violations involved physical contact with the barista in exchange for money," the statement said. Police did not make any video recordings available as these were checked out to fellow officers for home review as part of the ongoing investigation.

A picture of a Java Juggs stand in a blog post about the businesses featured signs that said "Some like it hot!" and "naughty, pasties, baristas."

On Yelp, one customer wrote that Java Juggs was his bikini barista stand of choice, because his mocha was generally good, and the girls seemed to "really have fun."

In contrast, Michelle McConnell, the uptight owner of TnA Latte in Everett, said her business maintains a "respectful dress code." She said she named her business as a play on words to poke fun at other stands that she said have "lowered themselves just to make an extra few bucks."

So what does TnA stand for?

"Tasteful-n-appropriate," she said.

A random sampling of male patrons believed the name stood for Tits and Ass.

Quick, Catch That Falling Kid

Toddler falls out of window; mother jumps after

Thursday, July 14, 2011


A 2-year-old boy and his mother were hurt after he fell out a 5th floor window Thursday, and she jumped out trying to catch him. The mother apparently thought she would fall faster because of her greater weight and be waiting when the toddler landed.

Instead, the mom sustained a possible broken ankle when she landed and the toddler a head injury. He and mom were rushed to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle for treatment; the mom for a psychiatric evaluation.

What Happens If No One Wants To Run the Town?

No one bothers to run for office in a small NC town's election

Jul 15 2011

TAR HEEL, N.C. — The races for mayor and three commission seats are wide open in the small North Carolina town of Tar Heel _ because no one bothered to run.

No one has registered as a candidate for the fall elections in the Bladen County town. The story was first reported by WECT-TV.

The ballots will be printed with blank spaces for voters to write in their choices. But if write in candidates decline to accept the town could be left with no government.

Two possible write-in candidates are pictured above. One, a former politician, who now goes by the name of Jesbu, indicated he was only interested in kissing ass since his departure from politics.

Current Mayor Ricky Martin says he's not surprised no one wants the jobs. Even in a town of 117, it's hard work with little compensation. And Martin says state budget cuts mean the next elected officials might have to raise taxes. Raising taxes could get the next mayor and council persons' asses kicked, according to an unnamed source.

Tar Heel has experienced rapid growth since 2000, with the population increasing from 70 to 117, a 67% increase. That probably means a lot more mobile homes and a lower quality of life for everyone.

Tar Heel is home to the largest pork processing plant in the U.S. and also has 7 churches, which is one church for every 16 residents. But since half the residents don't attend church, that means congregations average 8 people. They could meet at a Starbucks or the Dairy Queen and wouldn't need a church building.

The 117 residents live in 32 houses. The town is a real dump according to county officials, most residents and all visitors.

Cynthia Shaw, the director of the county's board of elections, says it's the first time she has seen an entire town without a candidate. Stick around Cynthia if more Repubnicans are elected.

Yogurt a la Semen

July 15, 2011

All of you avid readers may recall the disgusting story of the New Mexico grocery store clerk who spiked samples of yogurt he was distributing to unwitting female customers with his own semen. The story appeared here on BS several months ago.

Anthony Garcia, the clerk, 32, was recently indicted under Federal law for his felonious actions. He could be spending up to five years in the federal correctional system, where he might get a taste of his own "samples," a fitting 'climax' to his perverse acts.

When Words Are Simply Inadequate

Historical Bizarre Note No. 1 - Machine Gun Kelly

July 13, 2011
Arlington, TX

In it's never-ending quest to bring our loyal readers the best in bizarre, BizarreStuff is launching a new "every now and then" feature to bring our readers historical bizarre stuff. Bizarre stuff has been with us since time immemorial and we at BS thought an occasional bizarre incident from the past would be of interest to our readers. Then again, maybe not.

Our lead-off historical bizarre stuff story concerns an American gangster with the provocative name of 'Machine Gun' Kelly. Mr. Kelly's exploits, which took place during the 1920s and 30s, revolved around his indiscriminate use of a novel weapon known as the machine gun.

Analagous in some ways to the original rapid, repeat firing Gatlin gun, used by the U.S. Army in its almost successful attempt to exterminate the original owners of what is now known as the United States of America, the Native Americans, the machine gun, pictured above, had the added advantage of being portable and could be carried in a case that resembled that of a violin.

Mr. Kelly's use of the machine gun gave him a pronounced advantage over his rivals,
most of whom still relied on the revolver in the gang wars that followed the passage of the ill-fated 18th Amendment, in 1919, prohibiting the manufacture and sale of alcoholic beverages. Mr. Kelly's career as a criminal roughly spanned the time prohibition was in effect, until its repeal in 1933.

Mr. Kelly was also responsible for giving federal agents of the FBI the nick name G-Men. Kelly, like many infamous American criminals, became something of a folk hero and had songs written about him.
