The rules:
Post the text from a news story from either germany or florida, removing the place names. We need to guess which it is.
Sure, I guess. I've never played this game before. I think it might be limited to fortean or weird shit, though.
Just in case someone missed/forgot the theme song:
THINGS ARE SICK AND TWISTED
FROM TOO MUCH SUN AND NAZIS
SEX METH AND DEATH FETISHES
BOTH OF THEM HAVE ALL THESE
GUARANTEED NOT TO BORE 'YA
GERMANY OR FLORIDAAA
QuotePakistan discovers 'village' of ******* al-Qaeda insurgents...
My answer: GERMANY (because of the geographical proximity)
I say florida. The guy has a florida feel to me. Too warm.

QuoteNaturists will soon have their own 11-mile long trail for hiking in the nude and some enthusiasts have been trying it out before the official opening next May.
The person that runs a nearby campsite, has led the project to create the nudist trail overcoming some local protests by pointing out its potential boost for tourism.
"I think it's a great way to promote tourism here," the person said on Tuesday after a newspaper published a picture of two women wearing nothing but rucksacks on the trail. "There's already been a lot of interest in it."
Naturism fans have been monitoring progress of the trail in Internet chatrooms for months and a band of naked hikers took a test walk on the not-quite-finished trail in May.
The trail is being marked with special signs warning the uninitiated that they could encounter nude hikers.
i wonder how long we should wait to reveal the answer, you know, for us not to burn-out all the stories and also not make it too stagnant.
Id say to wait 2 replies at least...

QuoteOfficials say a man was airlifted to the hospital for treatment after he was severely burned during a fight over beer, cigarettes and money.
Ambulance company spokesman says the 47-year-old suffered "serious burns." The police chief told the news journal that the person was drinking in a home's backyard when the fight broke out Saturday afternoon.
Police chief said that during the scuffle, a 42-year-old dragged the 47 year old into a wooded area, poured gasoline on his face and lit a fire. Police Chief said a bystander helped put out the flame.
The 42 year old was jailed on 100,000 (currencies) bond.

It was on the front page of the paper.
Florida indeed it is. (sorry for taking so long to post answer)

A man is facing charges after authorities said he was naked and covered in feces when he broke into a resident's backyard and jumped into the pool. A police report shows 21-year-old person was charged with burglary to an occupied dwelling, disorderly conduct and misdemeanor theft.
The resident told police he heard the 21 year old crash through the screen of his pool and take a splash Saturday night. Authorities said the young man took a towel and fled. Police used a K-9 to track him to a home. He told police he had been drinking.
He was being held at the jail on 10,500 (currencies) bail. Jail officials said he did not immediately have an attorney.
Florida
Florida.
they don't have the same system with bail money in Germany, so that's kind of a giveaway.
Its amazing Squid turned out so normal, being the product of both Florida and Germany.
Perhaps they cancelled each other out.
Perhaps. I would have hoped for a synergetic combination, though.

Squid is normal? On what planet? :wink:
According to floridians I'm both a fucking lunatic and the devil.
THE. DEVIL.
According to me, they're all a bunch of fucktards dipped in hot melted shit. I'm surprised these assholes don't all die from forgetting to breathe.
I'd say I'm totally normal. As a product of my environment, I know exactly what not to be.

Florida. I can't believe that Germany would be quite so uptight about drunken naked cyclists.

Yeah, or anywhere else, really. That wouldn't rate either police response or a news writeup here. As long as they were wearing a helmet, they're pretty strict about that here.

Germany- they're strict as hell about their road rules
If it were Florida I would expect them to also have a child on the back of the bike and be high on meth and/or homeless.
Germany doesnt like public nudity like that, but then again, I don't see it happen there as quickly either so I'm going Florida.
German on holiday in Florida.
Germany (i wonder if it was a classy bike)

'Gang Of Retirees' Jailed Over Kidnapping
Three retirees who lost $1.4 million in the financial crisis and kidnapped their investment adviser in an attempt to recoup the money were convicted Tuesday, with their 74-year-old ringleader sentenced to six years in prison.
...After four days captivity, Amburn wrote a plea for help in a crude code – "Sell 100 Call Pol.ICE" – on the fax to his bank and was freed by police within hours.

BZZT, that took place in Germany
but it involved properties in Florida, so it's tricky!

A #### man apparently attempted to pay his water bill with an envelope containing 3 grams of crack cocaine, according to a #### TV station:
QuoteThe #### Water office was evacuated on Sept. 23 after the water-department employees called the #### <police department> to take a look at the envelope with the white powder, authorities said ...
According to the report, it is common for customers to drop off envelopes in the counter that contain their water bill payments.
But in this case, when the employee opened the envelope, there was no statement or writing on it. Instead, the envelope contained a clear plastic bag with 3 grams of crack cocaine.
The man was videotaped by surveillance cameras; <policemen> say he rode away from the water office on a bicycle.
Singing a happy tune, we hope.
crack? Gotta be Florida
