I was just listening to this week’s episode of Innovations from The Global Voice and they mentioned a really, really cool contest! I don’t know if I have enough talent or creativity to produce an entry, but maybe I’ll try. I want the prize damn it! Here’s the deal. They want everybody to try and …
I Know Steve Said Guys Don’t Like Weddings, But…
What the hell is in the air? Now, a groom just heaved himself off his hotel balcony while on his honeymoon. No apparent warning, nothing.

This story of non-emergency 911 calls brings up a couple of questions. First, what kind of a name is Hee Orama? It makes me think she’s a great big gigglefest. Second, why did she suddenly start calling 911 for stupid reasons? First it was about a guy lying about marrying her, and then about stuff …
You’ve Got Bills, We’re Multiplyin’?
I know bill collectors can sometimes go to great lengths to get what they’re after,but this right here is a bit much. Not only did George Herron pull out the old I’ll make your debt disappear if you do something for me line while visiting a woman’s home to discuss a payment, but he then …
