Sorry for the delays in posting. I was overwhelmed with this weekend, but enough of that. This last weekend was a Japanese Culture Festival in Phoenix, which apparently meant that we needed a CosPlay display.  I will be uploading some of the photos that I took over the weekend.  There just seems to be something odd of a 6ft. cat wandering around a crowd of people…

Today’s stories were a tough batch to choose from, since there has been a lot of stabbing and maiming. As always, there are links at the bottom to the full articles. Also, if you want to you can leave a comment on this article. Happy Fat Tuesday!

Her Hair is Smoking

An Evansville woman decided that the easiest way to get rid of her lice was to wash her hair out with gasoline. A fire crew was called to the scene after the gas fumes were ignited by a water heater. She was taken to a local hospital and has suffered minor injuries. I can’t wait to see who she sues to buy her a replacement wig, while her hair grows back out…

Now You’re a Man

Adam Wilson of the ripe age of 16 was charged with assault and possession of marijuana after his arrest on Friday. His father took a 30 pack of Budweiser away from the kid sometime earlier in the week. For actually caring, his son rewarded him with a stab to the neck with a penknife. When the son asked the father to pay him for the 30 pack, Thomas Wilson (aka Father) refused, that is when the kid struck and then fled from the home.

Take Off the Hat or I’ll Stab You

A 58 year old father and 19 year old son got into an argument Sunday when the son refused to take his hat off while in church. The father upset, walked out to the car and grabbed his knife. He decided to prove that the lord works in mysterious ways, by stabbing the kid in the left butt check and then fleeing the scene. The son was taking to the hospital for treatment.

Damn that’s some Hot Stuff in that Trunk

Cincinnati Police have decided that they will try to use 1990’s terms to help people. Their new campaign for auto theft education starts tomorrow and the winning slogan is, “Lock it or lose it, put your junk in the trunk!”

Lt. Mark Biede of the Cincinnati Police department said, “Could be cd’s, ipods, briefcase, suction cup left on windshield, cell phone, when breaking into cars, if they got the charger they look for what goes with it also.”

This new campaign will look to include bait cars with cameras, educational e-mails, and more cops walking the beat and/or working undercover.
Now that is a horrible car robber, if he breaks into a car to steal a suction cup. They should just turn themselves in at that point.

The All-Star basketball weekend arrives in Phoenix, and I wonder if anyone really cares anymore. It used to be about the Slam Dunk Contest and 3 point Shootout, then the big game over the weekend. I wonder if this game is going to mean as much since the economy is in its rut. Well I found some interesting articles to share. As always links are at the bottom to the full article.

Teacher Hooks on side to make that Money…

Amber Carter from Bellefontaine, Ohio was arrested Tuesday in the parking lot of a motel in Central Ohio. She was charged with misdemeanor prostitution and a felony for “unauthorized use of property.” Authorities learned that Amber has been a fourth grade teacher for over 13 years. Amber would use the school’s computers to setup her afternoon appointments and would even skip the occasional class. I wonder if her rates varied by the class she was skipping?

Bellefontaine City Schools Superintendent Larry Anderson says officials are shocked. He says Carter never received a reprimand in 13 years at the district. She’s now on administrative leave.
