Man says he was forced to eat beard in mower spat
Man says he was forced to eat beard in mower spat

Associated Press November 12, 2010

A central Kentucky man says he was forced to eat his beard after an argument about a lawn mower got out of control. Harvey Westmoreland of Lawrenceburg told WLEX-TV that two men cut off his beard, stuffed it into his mouth and forced him to eat it.

Westmoreland said two former friends got angry as they tried to negotiate a price for a lawn mower they wanted to buy from Westmoreland. He said "one thing led to another, and before I knew it, there were knives and guns and everything just went haywire."

The two men pleaded guilty to charges related to the incident and will be sentenced next week.

2. Sounds about like Sunday dinners at the ex inlaws
Everything is peaceful the food is good and I never knew what exactly would set em off. One time the guns and knives came out and they all turned on me because I would not take sides.

10. We could use some good bakeries
in my area of NC. Dunkin Donuts just isn't doing it for me. I miss all the good baked available at my local bakery in NJ. I could have even stopped and tried those beauties when in the city.

Guess I'll just have to learn to bake. I love living in NC and baked goodies don't make up for the hell of living in NJ. oooops I better hide, lest some Joisey person be offended ;)
