This story of a fellow who couldn’t spell Robert Taylor is even funnier than the story of Coronica Jackson, or something, which I swear we posted about, but I can’t for the life of me find it on the blog. I do have to give Amos Ashley some credit. At least he didn’t pick an …

Stripper…Of The Right To Have Kids
It’s pretty sad when I can read a story about a chick leaving her kids alone while she goes off to work as a stripper at night and think “Meh, is that really weird anymore?” I’ve written about similar stories and been all enraged. But it happens so often, parents neglecting their kids, leaving them …
The Dead Art Of Nicknaming
Nicknaming is definitely a lost art. I think everybody other than those in charge of nicknaming people knows that. The stuff that passes for good nicknames now is pretty lame, usually consisting of little more than letter from your first name-2 or 3 letters from your last name. Most of the time I just try …
I Guess Fort Wayne Doesn’t Have Baals
It’s sad that a fellow who apparently was a really good mayor and was well-liked will never have his name on a government building just because his name is Harry Baals. The poor sap probably was made fun of all his life, and now this.
A Bad Touch Off The Old Block
There are a couple things of note inthis story.The most obvious is that it’s all about a father and son who both face child molestation charges in different towns in the same State. What you may not have immediately noticed is that the son, Robert D’Ginto Jr, is said to reside on Badman Road. That’s …
I Guess It was Beyond Help From Tuning
Thanks Ann for this one. Now that’s just weird. Suddenly, out in the middle of Biscayne Bay, there’s a piano! Nobody knows how it got there, all they know is someone placed it on a sand bar at the highest point to make sure it doesn’t go under at high tide. How the hell could …
Aaaa! There’s A Moron On The Loose!
I wonder if Joseph Moron and Bryan Scott Moron are related. Well, one of them only ended up being a drunken fool, while the other one sounds like quite the vicious individual. Well, I can’t blame him for being a little bitter. Can you imagine having the last name Moron? Imagine the jokes, the ridiculing. …
Name.Fail
Hmmm. I think the good folks at Research In Motion could have thought a little harder when they picked their careers website. I mean, come on, rim.jobs? Seriously? Or were they going for shock value? I have to admit I haven’t forgotten where I would look if I were interested in working for RIM.
If You Had Dreams For These Kids, They Died Today.
Let’s start with a soundtrack,shall we? Ok, picture this. You’re a kid, about 12 years old. You notice a blue cube on top of a filing cabinet in a classroom. What do you think you should do? If you respond by saying nibble on it, you’re not alone, and you’re also very very dumb. It …

What Would You Like On That, Sir? I’ll Have Some Peppers And Some Forgery Charges.
Sometimes that whole if at first you don’t succeed, try, try again thing isn’t the best strategy for living your life. It most definitely wasn’t in the case ofWilliam Peppers,who was bound and determined that no matter what, he was going to get himself some Edwardo’s pizza. He almost did, aside from the part where …
