Funny? Or frightening?
A Ukrainian saboteur…pigeon?
In Baldwin, Florida, a semi-trailer truck was involved in an accident on I-10 Westbound at US-301 here…leading to a spill of its cargo…officials said that everyone needed to BEE careful…
Apparently Tik-Tok IS useful for individuals who don’t know how to…what?
In Manassas, Virginia, traffic got snarled to a crawl this past Monday morning… and you’ll never guess why…

Have a GREAT weekend, folks! Have a happy Cinco de Mayo!
