Coke snorting and rough sex with a stranger in a hot tub? Wouldn't be strange news at all in New Orleans. Too bad that he died, though.

Happily retired since 2009, at age 61. Best years of my life by far!

Weatherman, dog collar, dope and a hot tub? That's just Tuesday night in most places.

Now here is something you don't see every day.

Gumby Botches Robbery Of San Diego 7-Eleven « CBS Los Angeles

Claymation characters robbing the c-store? Now that's some weird reality for you.

I guess I live a pretty dull life. But at least I know where I'm gonna wake up the next morning.

I'm not proud to say that with the exception of the Gumby story, I'd already read these other stories on the computer today. I seriously need to stop looking at the news.
Or read about the economy or something.
