Ok, what’s with all the badly-shipped heads without the proper papers? You’re shipping human parts! You’re going to get questions, so, Duh, have the paperwork available! First we had this truck of heads, and now we have this box of full and partial heads on a plane. And the strange part is the truck was …

Hot And Ready…To Go To Jail
I guess we can add Nathan Jay Seidel and Tyler Joseph McLaughin to the list of folks not meant to commit crimes. They called for a pizza, and when the delivery man arrived, they pulled a gun on him and demanded his money. He gave them two pizzas, money and his cellphone…but then Seidel dropped …
I’ll Hit You Tonight, With A Downtown Train
Why do we still have people wearing headphones while crossing train tracks? I know in one case, they’re not sure if he was wearing headphones, but in another that just happened not too long before these last two train deaths, the guy was definitely wearing headphones. I feel sorry for the folks driving the Maple …

Wayfinding Basics Survey
Jen sent me this request for participation on how us blinks get around, so I figured I would put it up here so anyone who is interested could participate. It doesn’t appear to have a deadline, and I think at least everybody in North America could participate, as it says zip or postal code. The …
Trauma To The Groin
I was looking at the search queeries, and someone’s looking for the guitar chords for Heywood Banks’s song “Trauma to the Groin.” Well, damn you, now you’ve put the song in my head. So, while I don’t have chords for ya, here’s the song. Ya know, with all the traumas to the groin we list …
Senseless Census Violence
The story of a rather large nutcase holding a census-taker against his will gives me chills just because it’s scary, but it also gives me the chills for a more personal reason. I know my mom was an enumerator for some elections stuff when I was little, but I could have sworn she did census …
These Kids Have Been Without A Mom For A Long Time Now
This story makes me so sad. I can’t imagine what these kids have been through. I’m glad the older one had the brains, and guts, to call the cops. I guess one day, their mom decided she’d had enough of her two boys, 11 and 6, and was going to leave them behind in Arizona …

Tears Of A Clown, Because They Scare All Those Around
Remember that study a couple of years ago saying that British kids were afraid of clowns? Well, I guess British adults are afraid of clowns too, so much so that John Lawson Circus has introduced a service to help them get over their fear. Yes, they have a clownselor on site to help them get …

Stick ‘Em Up, Or I’ll Make You All Sticky
What a dope. I guess, at least Jose Alejandro Romero had something in the waistband of his pants, and it was sort of a gun. Too bad it was only a caulking gun. And did he think a good accomplice would be a transgender prostitute? That’s kinda a memorable accomplice. I guess the cops haven’t …

We Say: The Charges This Time
Remember that firebombing of an Ottawa Royal Bank? Well, here’s who got charged with the incident, and they’re not the demographic I pictured. • Roger Clement, 58, of Ottawa, charged with arson causing damage, possession of incendiary material, using explosives with intent to cause property damage, and mischief. • Mathew Morgan-Brown, 32, of Ottawa, charged …
