Around The Weird: Bizarre News Briefs

New York, NY -- Fathers aren't looking for big presents on Father's Day -- 29 percent say they'd be happy with an uncluttered garage. That's according to a survey by GarageTex which shows that another 28 percent would use the space for exercising, hobbies or to park the car.

KURAVSOVSHINA, Belarus -- The world's oldest living person has some words of wisdom for others striving for longevity: eat plenty of pig fat. Hanna Barysevich, who turned 116 last week, tells London's "Mirror" her philosophy on eating is: "Eat good meals -- eat pork fat, gherkins and potato, drink good vodka and wine."

PARIS -- A high tech pair of underwear has won the top prize at a Parisian inventors exhibition. The so-called "Adam's List" undies for men were created by a Bosnian man who claims they prevent sterility by providing ventilation and keeping the testicles from overheating. Judges at the Councour Lepan inventors' expo awarded the panties a gold medal.

LOS ANGELES -- "No Commies Allowed." That's the rule in Garden Grove, a Southern California city known as "Little Saigon" because of it's large Vietnamese population. The city council declared at a meeting on Tuesday that it "does not welcome or sanction high-profile visits, drive-bys or stopovers by members or officials of the Vietnamese Communist government."

WASHINGTON -- It may be tough news to swallow, but DK Publishing is recalling over 200,000 children's books because of a possible choking hazard. The noise makers attached to the last page of the books can become detached. One boy reportedly pulled the device from the book and put it in his mouth, but did not suffer injuries. The list of books include "Dinosaurs, Kitty's Adventure, On The Road, Puppy's Busy Day, Tractors, Trains, Emergency!" and "Trucks."
