Dog loses control of car, causing crash
On a whim on Saturday evening, a woman let her pet dog drive her car along a street in Hohhot, capital of the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region.
As a result, her car crashed into another car on the road.
Under the mediation of traffic police, she had to fork out a large sum of money for the driver of the damaged car for repairs.

Man sets himself on fire in Moscow
MOSCOW - A man doused himself with flammable liquids and set himself on fire on Red Square Sunday before dozens of shocked tourists, Russian news reports and witnesses said.
The man made no statements or gestures before the incident, which occurred around 4 p.m. in front of St. Basil's Cathedral, Russian news agencies said, citing police sources. Police extinguished the flames just moments after he set himself ablaze.
Several minutes after the incident, witnesses said the man was lying on the ground face down, surrounded by metal police gates. He appeared to be alive, moving his legs as a police officer administered first aid. Police cars ordered tourists back from the scene.
ITAR-Tass and RIA-Novosti cited paramedics as saying that he was hospitalized in critical condition and that police were trying to identify him.
Security has been tightened around Red Square in recent years, with much of the famous cobblestone area routinely blocked off by guards and police, and tourists having to pass through metal detectors.
However the area immediately in front of St. Basil's Cathedral, renowned for its brightly colored cupola domes, is relatively open to tourists.
Thieves have their cake but can't eat it
BERLIN (Reuters) - Two men broke into a supermarket depot in Germany and left with just a cake, authorities said on Tuesday.
"Sometimes people just come up with crazy ideas," said Hermann Schwichtenberg, a spokesman for police in the northern town of Itzehoe. "Now we've seen everything."
Police arrested the two men, aged 29 and 41, shortly after the late night break-in and recovered the stolen cake. A search of the men's flat uncovered no more loot.
See, it just goes to show, "people are STUPID everywhere"! Not just here in the good ole USA, like the people that want to rebuild their homes in BELOW SEA LEVEL New Orleans. Or the government trying to get displaced New Orleans natives to come back and try again. There is a plethora of "stupid people" all over this planet.
