Eye catching doll on the corner

Sometimes you just have to do it yourself. Lin Chen has a house on a corner where there is a traffic light that people blow through all the time. She knows it is dangerous and has caused accidents, but she cannot get the police to pay extra attention on her street. So the 67 year old Chinese woman used her creativity and find a way to make nearly every passerby slow down or stop at her corner. Lin invested in a blowup sex doll that came with its own skimpy outfit. To add to the effect she tied the plastic woman to the tree at the corner. Now almost everyone slows down at least to look. “I thought that drivers would slow down if I could give them something worth looking it.” The unusual speed reducing method appears to be working, with police reporting a decrease in the number of accidents in the area. “It isn’t a method we would use, but we can’t say it isn’t working,” said a police spokesman. Police are a little leery of blow-up dolls because the Shandong Province last month sent 18 officers who spent almost an hour rescuing a blow-up doll from a river, mistakenly thinking it was a drowning woman.

An MTA (NY Municipal Transit Authority) manager claims an inflatable doll that’s been riding shotgun in his Kia Telluride is there “for the company” — and not to skirt HOV restrictions, as his coworkers suspect. Giulio Divirgilio, a general superintendent at the MTA Buses department, pulled into his Brooklyn office building early Wednesday morning with the blown-up dummy plopped in the front seat like “Otto Pilot” in the 1980 comedy “Airplane!” Confronted by the NY Post outside the East New York building, Giulio denied he had the inflatable suit-sporting businessman in tow to illegally cruise in lanes reserved for high-occupancy vehicles. “I don’t use it for the HOV,” the $122,000-per-year government official insisted. “I use it for someone to talk to.” One union official said, “It’s unbecoming of a manager. We laugh, but what else is he doing in secret that we don’t know about?” The MTA said they are investigating the plastic pal. Gulio may have to get a note from his psychiatrist and declare Otto an emotional support dummy.

Will the Real Dummy Please Stand Up?
AT&T fired President John Walter after nine months, saying he lacked “intellectual leadership.” He received a $26 million severance package. Perhaps it’s not Walter who’s lacking intelligence…

It’s time to elect a ventriloquist for President.
