I hope that after the pistol-whipping hit the news, goomba’s isn’t doing so well. those words were spoken by me in January of this year after I read the story about that guy getting tooled by the owner of a pizzeria when he complained the place got his order wrong. Well, truer words were never …
There’s A Reason She’s Called A Guide Dog
I had a bus driver say something to me the other day that, no matter how many times I hear it, makes me raise my eyebrows. I was getting on the bus, and the driver said, “Wow, you do pretty well without that stick.” At first I just thanked him and sat down, wondering if …

James Coleman decided he would jog and tweet, tweet and jog, and so he was jog jog joggin’ along..and then…it happened! Clonk! Head meets tree, and he heard tweets of a different kind. …
I guess blow pops was taken…

Big Bozeman Wants To Watch You
Here’s a scary policy that I’m happy to say died a quick and merciful death. The city of Bozeman, Montana decided they wanted to have a real good look at applicants for city jobs. Included in the background check was a request for applicants to tell them about all social networking and web groups they …
Shoo, PETA, Don’t Bother Me
Ug here we go with more PETA bullshit. I think even flies can smell it and would consider it fine food. President Obama swatted a fly in an interview. PETA decided to seize upon this opportunity and bitch about it, sending him a humane bug catch and release fly trap. This reminds me of something …
