Brilliant, but sad. The bus stop, in front of the Benrath Senior Centre in the western city of Düsseldorf, is an exact replica of a standard stop, with one small difference: buses never stop there. The purpose is to "trap" Alzheimer patients that wander away from the hospital. "They know the green and yellow bus sign and remember that waiting there means they will go home.” The result is that errant patients now wait for their trip home at the bus stop, before quickly forgetting why they were there in the first place."

"Warren E. Strickland, 31, of Fairbanks, pleaded guilty to disorderly conduct Tuesday for throwing a double-decker taco at a manager of the Taco Bell restaurant on University Avenue." The great thing about this...the exact same thing played out at a MacDonald's in Portland...I just happened to be in line at the time.

There are a couple of high-tech companies that are famous (or infamous, El Guapo) for asking seemingly bizarre questions during the interview process. Personally, I have had a few interviews at companies with a similar flair for the obscure. Glassdog.com, an anonymous employer review website, has collected some of its favorites for 2009. Does anybody have any favorite interview questions they would like to share?
