Meet Scarface And His Owner Scartorso
There is so much about this story that makes me go “wow.” First, somebody had a pit bull and they named it Scarface. To me, this sounds like they think of him as kind of mean. Maybe picking the name was random, or he had a weird scar on his face for some innocent reason …

There’s Gold In Them Thar Holes
The story of Leston Lawrence, the former Royal Canadian Mint employee accused of pocketing nearly $180,000 by keistering gold pucks has been all over the news today. But in all the coverage, one fact, albeit quite a childish one, seems to have flown under the radar. Lawrence’s trial, on charges that include theft, laundering the …
Hey Officer, Check Out My Baton
I’m not even sure where to start with this, so I’m just going to lay out what we have here. We have a fellow who admitted that on at least two occasions, he exposed himself to municipal bus drivers in Seattle. As a result of this admission and the conviction on two counts of indecent …
