DATE FOR HIRE
A desperate Chinese university student posted an ad on campus somehow it ended up on our Cutting Room Floor.
He's looking to "rent" a girlfriend for 10 days so he can show her off to his parents over the Lunar New Year holiday.
The physics student is offering what comes to about 130 dollars.
The advertisement said the woman should be "an honest, kind and similar-aged girl with a diploma."
The student says his parents had been pressuring him to find a girlfriend, but he's been studying too hard and has had no time to meet a potential partner.
GREASE LIGHTENING
An Ohio high school lunch period was disrupted earlier this week when a student, covered in... grapeseed oil... ran around screaming and flailing his arms.
The 18 year old used the oil to keep from being caught... so police used a stun gun on him... twice.
School officials reported that Killian was a good student.
And, there's no indication of substance abuse or a medical problem.
BUFF BOWLING
Perhaps that student was looking for the Old Town Bowling Center in Maine.
Members of the Bare Nekkid Mainers regularly rent out the alley...and all they need are shoes.
Since they can't go skinny-dipping this time of year bowling seemed like a natural alternative.
Here's Mike Ritcheson, a truck driver... one of the self-described naturist nudists, who belong to an international organization and participate in nudist events throughout the year.
At a previous event, a man apparently ignored the signs and entered the alley with his 8-year-old son to stumble upon a man in the buff playing pool.
He called police but they found no violations.
HEADLESS GYMNAST
Finally this morning...we turn to the world of sports for our photo of the day. A Venezuelan gymnast loses her head during her floor routine.
