'Pregnant' man's antics leave South African court stone cold Mon Nov 27, 12:08 PM ET

JOHANNESBURG (AFP) - A young South African has been fined by a local court for playing hooky from work and trying to cover it with a fake gynaecologist's certificate attesting he was pregnant and needed a week off.

A magistrate's court in Vereeniging, near Johannesburg, fined 27-year-old Charles Sibindana 1,000 rand (140 dollars/107 euros) for the brazen forgery, the SAPA news agency reported Monday.

Sibindana stole a medical certificate from a health centre used by his pregnant girlfriend but was apparently unaware that only women consulted gynaecologists.

Magistrate Bruno Van Eeden jokingly warned Sibindana "not to walk around faking sick letters from gynaecologists."

I know you are trying to discourage the use of the word 'moron' on the CE forum, but I can't help it. This

Yeah, but like I said in the other thread, it's kind of nice to have an article posted we can all laugh at. I got this from the Oddly Enough on Yahoo. I'd love to see a few of these types of items posted in the CE forum each week.

Thats what OT forum is for. CE is for serious people to talk about serious things.

Please show me where that's a written rule. Certainly we can all benefit from a good laugh now and then.

Are you serious? We can laugh? Well, funny posts have been placed on here before. I just can't remember a funny one other than that.
