What's worse than dreaming about going to work naked? Losing your pants on a ski lift and having the photos appear on news websites.
The unlucky man was left hanging in the cold on January 1 when he fell through the chairlift seat at Blue Sky Basin at Vail Ski Resort.

The Smoking Gun, which carries photos of the embarrassing incident, reports the man became suspended over the snow when his right ski jammed in the chairlift. Somehow his trousers got caught too.

Apparently the 48-year-old man was stuck without his pants for around 15 minutes as fellow skiers took photos.

IF being dressed up as Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz wasn't bad enough, little Dinky Oldfield brought new meaning to the idea of a sick puppy last week, requiring an emergency trip to the vet after eating a "six-fingered latex glove". The jack russell, owned by 2GB midnight-to-dawn radio recruit and former One Nation mastermind David Oldfield, was rushed to Sydney's Manly Vet Clinic on New Years Eve by his wife Lisa.

Fearing for the dogs life, the one-time TV panellist pushed through the line to saying her "little scallywag'' needed help.

But after Dr Chris Watkins immediately pumped the six-month-old pups stomach, he didn't discover a glove, but six coloured condoms.

"David was cleaning out his office and left out a box of condoms given to him by a safe sex group in Canberra or something and the dog got into them when I was in the shower,'' Lisa said.
