Ok, I finally made a background^^ but I'm still tinkering with the header banner though. If you have ideas about the Bootleg's design, please let me know.

Bootleg Ketchup!- Random Acts of WTF-ness!

*Bows* Sorry for not updating in such a long time. School deadlines and assignments have been cracking the whip upon me. Any who, that leaves a lot of news to catch up on for April, so this week will be a series of “Ketchup” articles with themes such as this one, which is about the intelligent decisions people make.

Soccer Star gets charged for stealing woman’s panties from seven years ago

A member of the J-League soccer team Kashiwa Reysol was arrested this week for sneaking into a 21-year old woman's home and stealing her panties seven years ago, after DNA from another incident matched him to the crime.
On September 11, 2001, he snuck into the woman's house in Kobe and stole her panties and cell phone. He was 19 at the time—a minor in Japan—so his name hasn't been disclosed to the press.
In March 2006, while the player was at Kawasaki Frontale, he was arrested for breaking into a Kawasaki home, but later released without charges. DNA he left behind at the scene of this incident matched DNA found at the scene of the Kobe case and led to his arrest.

RAWR! Man Angry, Man Beats Tulips!!


"Police on Thursday released images from a security camera showing a man chopping down tulips with his umbrella alongside a road here, following a spate of similar attacks in the city.
Police have launched a search for the man, who appears to be aged between his 40s and 50s.
The suspect, dressed in a suit and tie, was captured swinging his umbrella violently to lop the tops off tulips in planters near the Gunma Prefectural Government headquarters in Maebashi late on April 18.
At about 12 a.m. the following day, about 65 tulips from 18 planters were found to have been chopped down.
Altogether, roughly 1,900 tulips were cut down in attacks in Maebashi on April 9, 14 and 19."

Bleach Fetish?

Nope, I’m not taking about the series but about a man who has a fetish of throwing bleach onto inspecting woman’s crotches.

“In Sapporo, a mystery man has been spraying liquid bleach onto women's crotch areas in subways and shopping centers, leaving them befuddled with embarrassed in public. In the last month, there have been 15 attacks--last year around this time, there were several dozen which came to an abrupt halt when the media started reporting on it.

One woman noticed a strange guy putting a spray can into his pocket at the train station, then discovered a white stain on her pants minutes later”

Weirdo Arrested

"A man has been arrested in Hokkaido for putting on some make-up and a blouse and hanging out in a women’s public toilet:
Tsukasa Okazaki, 45, the banker from Monbetsu, Hokkaido, was arrested for trespassing. He admits to the allegations.
“I wanted people to see me as some sort of weirdo,” he told the police.

......Nuff said...there are too many puns that I could use for this statement....."
