I have so many things I want to say about this but will just stop here: that is NOT how you alleviate an anxiety attack. It's just not.

Florida country radio morning-show hosts Val St. John and Scott Fish are currently serving indefinite suspensions and possibly worse over a successful April Fools' Day prank. They told their listeners that "dihydrogen monoxide" was coming out of the taps throughout the Fort Myers area.
I want to be the person who answered the phones at the utility company that day!

Sciencewoman thinks that this was a pretty clever prank. Everyone should take basic chemistry. The fact that the radio personalities would get suspended or lose their jobs because the public couldn't figure out an obvious, basic science formula makes me sad.

Glad to see they're now back on the air.

So weird... but so hilarious.

Nicolas Cage Photoshops Invade Campus:
http://onwardstate.com/2013/04/10/ni...invade-campus/

Quote:
They say every great movement begins with one big idea, one innovator, one iconoclast. But in the case of “Operation Cage on Cage on Cage,” which swept Penn State’s campus by storm this morning, it was the work of six stalwarts that started the mania and confusion.

If you went to class today (a big if, I know, considering the weather this afternoon) you probably saw a barrage of 8.5×11 pieces of paper clad with various photoshops of Academy Award-winner and oft-chided actor Nicolas Cage. There was Hippolas Cage, Picleaus Cage, Hillary Clinton Cage, and every other conceivable variation of the actor’s face photoshopped on anything imaginable.

The former voice of Charlie Brown in the old CBS Peanuts specials has pleaded guilty to stalking and threatening his ex-girlfriend, along with the plastic surgeon who performed a breast augmentation on her before they broke up (he wanted his money back after paying for the surgery):

I heard of this prank being done multiple times over the last couple decades. Nice to see people haven't gotten any smarter over the years.

Pippi Longstocking is coming into your town....

Quote:
"Pippi Longstocking" actress Tami Erin was arrested after she allegedly got into a fight with her roommate over pizza, police said.

Erin, best known for her title role in the 1988 movie "The New Adventures of Pippi Longstocking," was arrested Thursday on suspicion of assault, the Contra Costa Times of Walnut Creek, Calif., reported.

Erin was placed under citizen's arrest by her roommate, a man whose name was not released, after the two began fighting shortly after a pizza was delivered to their apartment, Walnut Creek police said. Officers said they were not sure what caused the fight, but a neighbor called the police after hearing Erin's roommate call for help.

Has anyone heard of the fad of "Condom snorting"? Here's a video. And yep, your tax dollars may be supplying the condoms (so that teens don't get diseased or pregnant) used for this trend.

Drunk driver crashes while having sex; leaves ejected lover on the road then hides behind cactus

I feel that the title of the article is all that needs to be said.

^^^Just stop at the title. I made the mistake of reading and LITERALLY, each sentence made it worse.

Don't know if this counts as "news", but I just got an emergency alert notification from my town because apparently residents are approaching rabid woodchucks and they wanted to remind residents not to approach wildlife of any sort, rabid or not..


You think? Honestly, who approaches foaming woodchucks?

Then I hear that Miss USA is from my hometown. Such a random day.
