Bostonist is looking back on the year in weird, silly, or just plain creative crimes. Yesterday, you met some pugnacious bowlers, but you haven't seen anything until you meet a certain postal employee, overeager college students, and an exceptionally creative gravedigger.

7. Going Postal. A postal worker didn’t honor her profession when she nearly hit a detail officer. Police realized why. She was driving while on the cell phone and "with a cigarette in one hand and a pen and a credit card in her other hand." She also tried to punch an officer when she was getting arrested.

6. Hey! My Roommate's Got Weed! Having weed in college probably makes a person much more popular. But not everyone needs to know about that weed--especially not the police. One overeager Northeastern student yelled out his window that his roommate had some stash in his room. Only it never occurred to him that BPD officers might hear him. The students wound up getting kicked out.

5. Put That in Your Pipe and Smoke It. Speaking of smoking, one man was arrested not for what he smoked but how he intended to smoke it. A Fitchburg gravedigger swiped a skull from the job, obviously thinking no one would miss the body parts. He thought the skull would make for a nice ashtray (Hello! Eye holes!). Yorick could not be reached for comment.

All charges alleged until proven under law.
