Yes, we’re (still) in the middle(?) of a pandemic…but (apparently) you (still) just can’t “shelter” stupid… look at what has (still) happened to these guys and gals…
In the Bronx, New York, Leonard Shoulders, 33, was waiting for a bus… when, without warning, the sidewalk on which he was standing gave way… and Leonard fell approximately 15 feet into the sinkhole that formed… in the process suffering a broken arm and a broken leg… but that wasn’t the worst of it…
You may have heard the saying that an attorney that represents themselves has a fool for a client… well, in Littleton, New Hampshire, Lisa Landon, 33, who wasn’t an attorney, and didn’t represent herself… but did manage to get charges of drug possession and stalking against her dropped… though her methods were unusual, to say the least…
In Laguna Beach, California, they say that good fences make good neighbors… but what do you do when the netting over a million-dollar, 10-foot-high sculpture blocks your view?… Why, apparently you blare the “Gilligan’s Island” theme song on a loop at all hours… at least if your name is Bill Gross…
In Yichun City, Jiangxi Province, China, Ruan Liangming, attained a new Guinness World Record… and there’s a lot of “buzz” about it… because it isn’t his first…
In Salem, Oregon, Claire Poche, a senior health adviser for the Oregon Health Authority, found out the hard way that there is a time and place for everything… but this was not the time for… well, this…
In Canberra, Australia, Annabelle Brett was getting ready to start her day about 6:20 am… when she got a message from her Tesla app that said the vehicle was going for a spin… well, her Tesla does have a semi-autonomous driving feature… but as Annabelle wasn’t in the vehicle, the alert was a bit disconcerting… Well, she sent a friend to check… and they spotted the car being driven out of her parking garage… and decided to give chase… and alert police… Courtesy of the aforementioned Tesla app, Annabelle decided to have a little fun with the alleged thieves... placing a speed limit on the car… rolling down the windows… and honking the horn… Eventually they lost sight of the vehicle… and when they caught up to it, the thieves were gone… but they didn’t have much trouble tracking them down…
Have a GREAT weekend, folks! It’s Halloween tomorrow, and while there may be fewer (no?) trick-or-treaters, be sure to keep an eye out. Oh – and don’t forget this is the weekend when many get/have to “fall back.”
