Poland Launches Nationwide Manhunt For Alleged Flatulant
Nah, I didn't misspell that. It's either a real word or it should be.
Police in Poland have launched a nationwide hunt for a man who farted loudly when asked what he thought of the president.
Hubert Hoffman, 45, was charged with "contempt for the office of the head of state" for his actions after he was stopped by police in a routine check at a Warsaw railway station.
He complained that under President Lech Kaczynski and his twin brother Jaroslaw, the country was returning to a Communist style dictatorship.
When told to show more respect for the country's rulers, he farted loudly and was promptly arrested.
He was let out on bail but didn't show up for arraignment.
Now he's a flatulent fugitive, squeaking poofs to power.
I guess Poland's a little annoyed that no one's making Polish jokes anymore.
