A Romanian convict's legal action against God was rejected, because prosecutors could not find God's address. Pavel Mircea, who is currently serving a 20 year sentence for murder, launched the action against God two years ago. "God and I closed a contract when I was baptised and God did not respect his part of the deal," said Mircea. "He was supposed to protect me from all evils and instead he gave me to Satan who encouraged me to kill. " Mircea also demanded financial compensation for money spent on candles and church services. But Romanian prosecutors have decided to drop the case after two years. "We could not find God's address," a spokesman said. "He has no home address. "

A convicted cop killer skipped his own dinner on the eve of his execution and instead requested jail authorities to deliver vegetarian pizzas to any homeless person located near Riverbend Maximum Security Institution. Although the request was denied by jail authorities citing their policy matters, the wish didn't remain unfulfilled, thanks to several volunteers who came forward and donated pizzas to homeless shelters across Nashville. The pizzas started pouring in at the homeless shelters across the town right beginning Wednesday morning when Nashville's Oasis Center received a delivery of 17 pizzas from a Minneapolis, Minnesota, radio station, CNN. com reports.
