Woohoo! This is pretty good news. In a few days, I can go in to Tim Hortons and pay by debit! Yes! Yes! It’s always such a pain. If I decide I want Timmy’s, I have to make sure I have cash. What if I don’t know where the nearest bank machine is? What if …

Santa In Audio-Ho-Ho
Here’s a little something I got from Jen. But first, I have to ramble for a second. When I was a kid, I never did the letter to Santa thing the way most kids do it. Most kids write their letter, maybe they get a little help, they address it and send it off, and …
Helpin’ Out The Searching Folk

Now He Nose That Wasn’t Smart
All I found on this story was this little excerpt from a sports blog and an article you have to pay to see. But somewhere in Amherst, Massachusetts, a man tried to scratch his nose with a bb gun. It didn’t end well. A man at a Hobart Lane home who was trying to scratch …
Now They’re Ushering Her To Jail
Here’s another lesson, this one courtesy of Bonnie Usher of New Hampshire. If you’re going to rob a place, make sure your getaway vehicle is not sporting a vanity plate with your name on it.

Welcome To Drunken Donuts
Here’s a lesson, courtesy of an unnamed 22-year-old Vancouver, B.C. man. If you’re going to rob a donut shop and use a knife as a weapon, don’t do it while drunk, because you might fall on your own weapon. Needless to say, all he got out of the deal was a trip to the hospital …
Disease Transplant?
Good lord. Please don’t let our organ supply get so bad that our doctors start implanting diseased organs into patients awaiting transplants. A woman in the UK battling cystic fibrosis, for example, got a lung transplant. What they didn’t tell her was she received the lungs of a chain smoker. She didn’t make it long. …
We Take Communication For Granted Until We Can’t Communicate

This Idea’s Got Crash Written All Over It
I just saw a story about a personal aircraft requiring minimal training and no pilot’s license and my mind screamed nooo! It didn’t stop screaming when they referred to these things as “Segways of the sky.” Yeah, because we need people flying planes like they drive Segways. That’s comforting. I know that each of these …

He’s Just Putting On An Itchy And Scratchy Show!
I saw the story of Charles Lickteig, a supervisor of a sex offender treatment program, getting busted for exposing himself at a traffic light, and thought I should probably post it. Then I forgot about it. Plus I couldn’t think of much to say except hmmm…wonder how it’ll feel to be a member of the …
