New York has all kinds of headline-stealing critters: bed bugs, the Bronx Zoo Cobra, the JFK turtles. Not to be outdone, this week a peacock escaped from the Central Park Zoo and perched on the window ledge of a tony apartment building on Fifth Avenue. When he got tired of gawking at the locals, he [...]

Check Yo’self

I’m an attorney and in the job I’ve been in for the past several years, I’ve seen all types of cases where people solve their problems with guns and knives. So not too much causes me pause. But today in the news there was a story about an off-duty McDonald’s manager who punched a woman [...]
Scratch & Sniff, then Snitch
Posted in strange news on November 13, 2010 | 1 Comment »
I thought this was odd when I heard it on NPR the other day. The Dutch are trying to curb marijuana production by passing out scratch and sniff cards so people can recognize the plants’ smell and inform authorities of illegal grow operations. Apparently rogue growers are really taxing local power grids. I guess the [...]

Apparently all you have to do is page him while he’s waiting for a flight out of the country. This week, Elias Abuezlazem was waiting for a flight to Isreal at Hartsfield-Jackson airport when he was paged. Abuelazem is suspected of stabbing several black men in Michigan, Virginia and Ohio. When ATL po-po were notified [...]

A man in Augusta is starting a basketball league for natural born white Americans only. Again, I don’t make this ish up. See here. The founder of the All American Basketball Alliance cites finger flipping and crotch grabbing as undesirable elements that have infiltrated mainstream leagues. Frankly, I don’t think it’s right to discriminate against [...]

HP face tracking software does not work for black people. HP has no idea why this is the case. Something tells me the HP testing department needs more melanin and a clue.

Ok campers, last week we learned that you may not be able to swim at the club pool in Philadelphia if you change the complexion or atmosphere–aka swimming while black or brown. This week in Gwinnett County, Georgia a woman was told she couldn’t breast feed her baby because there was no eating or drinking [...]
Praise the Lord and Pass the Amunition

Well, maybe not so fast. I heard a story on NPR today that there is a shortage of gun amunition. Because people are so afraid that Obama will tighten up on gun control, they’ve gone ape-shit trying to buy as many guns as they can and, along with it, the ammo. In light of the [...]

Santa has just reported that he is downsizing a third of his workforce. The job cuts affect elves and reindeer alike, including the beloved Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer.
