Around The Weird: Bizarre News Briefs

Albany, GA (WFN) -- Peanut butter is good with jelly but even better with gallstones. According to a new Harvard study, a tablespoon of peanut butter each day cuts the risk of gallstones by 15 percent.

WASHINGTON -- Does your U.S. Congressional Representative resemble you? A new study based on annual financial records found that 123 of the 435 members of the House of Representatives made at least one million dollars last year. Meanwhile in the Senate, one in three senators are millionaires. By comparison, less than one percent of Americans makes a million bucks or more.

COLUMBIA, Tenn. -- Dogs often assist cops in criminal investigations, but it was a herd of cows who recently helped nab a murder suspect in Tennessee. During the manhunt for Parker Ray Elliott, a state parks employee who was searching near a farm in Maury County noticed a bunch of cows looking in the direction of a wooded area. When police searched the brush, they found the suspect. Parks employee Shane Parker tells "The Tennessean," "I knew those cows should have been looking at me, since I had just come in the area, but they were looking over into the woods, so I knew that's where he was."

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. -- Sheriff deputies smoked out a Grand Rapids man for marijuana possession after the 29-year-old emptied a bag of buds out of his pockets during a courthouse security check. Security at the Kent County Courthouse in Grand Rapids, Mich., asked the man what was in the bag and he answered "It looks like weed." The man was let go after explaining he took the pot from his son, who found it while doing yard work. However, law enforcement officials are looking into his story, reports the "Grand Rapids Press."
