Can't make this (stuff) up

Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

WOW! 16-Year-Old Casey Bishop Channels Judy Garland with "Over The Rainbow"

These two put her in the top 5:
Casey Bishop Lets LOOSE with Coldplay Song "Paradise"
Casey Bishop ROCKS THE HOUSE For Her Mama! ("Ironic", Alanis Morissette)

Remember, she never performed before AI :crazy: . Whether she wins or not, I think she has a career. Top 5 show on 5/16, Finale on 5/23.

Judges are loving on her!

(Is it legal for me to have a crush on a sixteen year old or just perverted? )

Most American headline and opening paragraph ever:
Denver man confronts beer drive-thru clerk with assault rifle

A man armed with an assault rifle confronted a beer store drive-thru clerk in Denver Sunday afternoon before threatening two police officers who had responded to the scene....
The only things missing are fast food and country or western music.

Oh, and he is Black and the cops shot him. Yeppers, Memorial Day. This is what they fought and died for.

Someone's Father's Day gift is gonna suck this year:
Teen pays it forward after dad dumps 80,000 ‘child support pennies’ at Virginia home

Avery Sanford said she didn’t know what to think when she saw a landscaping trailer pull up outside her Virginia home last month.

Moments later, more than 80,000 pennies were spilling into the street and on her front lawn.

“My mom came out and was like, ‘What are you dumping in my yard?’ “ Sanford, 18, told WTVR of the surprise visit by her dad, who she said she hasn’t spoken to in years. “She didn’t know who it was until he shouted, ‘It’s your final child support payment.’ “

Despite the “embarrassing” display, the teen and her mother got the coins cleaned up and decided every penny would go toward a good cause. Her dad’s final payment, Sanford said, will now benefit women and children who survived domestic abuse....

Man steals doorknob from historic GA lighthouse, is offered chance to return it with no questions asked.....instead he's arrested in IN a week later and the doorknob has been returned. Let this be a harsh lesson: the only knob you should hide and take across state lines is your own. This fucker just looks like a knob goblin.

Also, one knob in your shorts is enough, and a 155-year-old one probably won't do you much good, anyhow.
... A review of the lighthouse’s surveillance showed the man snatching the brass knob from the door’s exterior and sticking it in the front pocket of his shorts before leaving. Police posted the still image online, where it was shared nearly 3,000 times and garnered an abundance of tips in just 24 hours.

Even when you're old and gray that knob in your shorts can get you in trouble.

I don't know.....I read just today that Mike Pence and Mommy bought a million dollar plus house somewhere in the paradise of Indiana.....probably right on the beach. So that's pretty exciting.

Wow, yeah, "biblical"...

I saw a story about this on the evening news, but it was short on details. Thanks for posting the link to the Cape Cod Times article, it filled in a lot. Seems like that diver has had a number of close calls, including a plane crash in the jungle where two died but he lived, with injuries. He also used to dive for abalone off California, where great white sharks were a constant menace. He might just want to consider retiring.

Apparently the lighthouse is on Tybee Island...Where I been in the 80's. Savannah is lovely. Don't remember the lighthouse or any missing knobs. The drive from Augusta to Savannah was... interesting. Could have sworn I saw Boss Hogg along the way.

Virginia Tech football player accused of killing Tinder match after discovering his date was a man

... He did not know that Smith was a man when the two met and engaged in sexual activity during their first encounter at Smith’s apartment, according to Etute’s lawyer, Jimmy Turk.

On May 31, Etute returned to the victim’s residence where he found out that “Angie” was actually Smith, Turk said....
