A Croatian man has admitted that he has not gone outside when it’s thundering for three years since lightning struck his penis.
Zoran Jurkovic of Vukovar was hit by lightning on his penis while riding his bicycle near the village of Perkovici during a thunderstorm in 2007, the  Croatian Times reports.
Jurkovic, who friends have nicknamed “Thunderous,†was hit by thousands of volts that melted his bike. The rubber tires saved his life, doctors said.
To get back at his friends for their teasing, Jurkovic tells them his lightning-struck penis now has extraordinary abilities. In actuality, he says he just happy it’s functioning properly.
Jurkovic lives with his mother and is not married. (What a shock)
No stealing this guy’s thunder.
Just drunks, not skunks, in the middle of the road
Pecica Mayor Petru Antal ordered the signs that depict the image of a kneeling partier next to a bottle of alcohol that says “Attention – Drunks†to be erected along the roads in and out of the town that has a vibrant nightlife, Ananova reports.
The mayor pointed out that drivers are at risk of running over local residents, who enjoy the town’s bars to the point where they are unable to take proper care of themselves on the way home.
“We have to target the drivers because by the time the pedestrians get into this state they are beyond caring,†Antal said.
He added that he believed the signs were a positive contribution and was not worried about the image sent out about the town’s citizens.
Salute!

An Australian swimwear company has developed the world’s first men’s briefs made from banana plants.
AussieBum spokesman, Lloyd Jones, said the underwear’s fabric is spun from the bark of the banana plant into soft, smooth material that is environmentally sustainable, Cairns.com reports. The fiber, sourced from Asia and knitted together in Brisbane, also is lightweight and offers strong moisture absorption.
Aussiebum previously had success in producing a range of men’s jocks that released residue into the skin to make the wearer feel revitalized, and undies designed to make mens’ packages appear larger through a specially designed pouch used to “separate and stop squashing.â€
Jones assured buyers that the new banana briefs are not mushy or squishy and do not smell like bananas. He said some people have been concerned that if they wear them, monkeys might follow them around.
A few dingoes maybe, but no monkeys.
