Poles pay tax bills with blood

February 24, 2008 By: Bolkie Category: funny, medicine, odd, weird 3 Comments →

 

Medical The phrase: “Those bloody taxes !” is getting a very funny meaning in Poland nowadays.

From now on it is possible to pay your tax bills by donating blood in Poland. Everyone who donates a liter of blood can now deduct 45 euros from their tax bills. Hospitals are giving out certificates to blood donors for every liter of donated blood.

Then one simply puts this certificate with his tax application, and 45 euros is deducted from their tax debt.

“One of my friends is an accountant and he told me about this new procedure,” says Dariusz Gryka from the town of Bialystok. ” I have donated my blood three times now. I can say it is definitely worth it !”

Latvia The rabbit of Latvian president Valdis Zatlers is dead. Lisis, as the bunny was called, was a  famous celebrity in Latvia. Lisis came to fame after president Zatler had told the press that he viewed his rabbit a full member of the presidential family.

It is speculated that Lisis was suffering from depressions after the family moved to the presidential palace last year. He longed back to his old home.

Although the Zatlers allowed Lisis to roam free around the palace, the little animal saw his new home as a golden cage.

The First Rabbit was never really able to cope with his celebrity status.

Cemetery burial plot is lottery grand prize

February 23, 2008 By: Bolkie Category: funny, odd, politics, sad, weird No Comments →

 

italy_flag In the Italian town of Marano, close to Napels, a very interesting lottery is being  organized. First prize is a burial spot on the local cemetery.

The town’s cemetery is completely full at the moment. That is why an emergency cemetery is being built in Marano. Though that new graveyard will only have enough spaces for 48 people.

The city administration is concerned that people might be starting to bribe city officials, as to obtain an exclusive resting place.

This made them decide to start the  rather odd lottery, of which the winner at least gets buried properly.

Though this is still a temporary solution. Work has begun on a much larger cemetery. The new graveyard will have space for over 1.000 burial spots.

A Saudi newspaper reported this today.

Among other things, the culprits are guilty of ” wearing improper clothing, dancing and playing loud music.” Cannot have people dancing in a mall, now can we?

This can be read in a statement by powerful Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice.

The religious police, or Muttawa, are considered to be the guardians of the ultraconservative Sharia laws. If you do the crime, these guys make sure you do the time.  One of their most demanding tasks is to keep the male population strictly separated from the female population, as demanded by law.
