A good day for:

Hell's angels, with the opening of a charity shop in Aalborg, Denmark, for jailed members. The shop sells Hell's Angels T-shirts, sunglasses, lighters and hashish pipes to raise money for imprisoned bikers. The use of hashish is illegal in Denmark, but there is no ban on pipes.

A bad day for:

Showgirls, which is the sole nominee in the "Most Boring Sex Film" category of the Boring Institute's 11th annual film awards. According to the institute's citation: "This film, filled with gorgeous, naked women, was spoiled by a totally unnecessary plot and dialogue."
