“Today’s lesson will be different…”
A Florida man was arrested and charged with lewd and lascivious behavior after police found him naked in an elementary school classroom, allegedly with an array of sex toys and marijuana.
…
When officers arrived at the scene, the man reportedly “quickly clothed himself” and started to run away. Police caught up to him, but the man — eventually identified as Joe Franklin Urias, 34 — put up a fight that resulted in one officer getting punched in the face. After gaining control of Urias, backup arrived and the suspect was taken into custody.
I’m going to go out on a limb and say he hadn’t smoked the marijuana yet.
Saucy woman raises cane over Rasing Cane sauce.
Keeling was arrested and charged with strong arm robbery and booked into the Pinellas County jail.
Keeling posted $2,500 bail and bonded out of jail.
Demanding a few extra hot sauce packets sure was worth it.
I suspect, since she grabbed the lanyard, she was trying to read the manager’s name, so she could Karen her way up the corporate food chain to get free stuff.
Jebus. It’s not like there aren’t a thousand copy-cat recipes for Cane’s sauce, which isn’t all that IMO. She could have made her own in the time it took her to drive back, get into a fight, get arrested and then get bonded out. Including the wait time for the sauce to meld.
Apparently those dumb-sounding reminders you get on desiccant packets that come with bottles of vitamins, drugs and such not to eat the packets, aren’t so dumb after all.
Putting these articles in because apparently the authors have never heard of the word “kilogram”.

But it looks like so much more when you say 1,000 grams!
Or maybe they know that readers in Fort Wayne, Indiana may not understand a “kilogram” but know what grams are, so just saying “1,000 grams” reduces the number of confused and angry responses they receive.
And, according to police, it has a street value of 2 billion dollars. Maybe
It is a bigger number.
Yeah, I noticed many years ago that they always give the street value, in the form of the value if sold in the smallest likely amount: one joint or whatever at a time.
I can’t help but be reminded of the poem “Smart” by Shel Silverstein.
There’s an urban legend that when A&W rolled out a 1/3rd lb burger back in the '70s or '80s to compete with the McDonald’s Quarter Pounder, that it sold poorly because the typical customer didn’t realize 1/3 was bigger than 1/4.
I don’t know if it’s true, but it wouldn’t surprise me.
There’s a similar urban legend about a German pro football player who was in contract negotiations. His club offered him to raise his salary by a third, but he declined with “no, it has to be at least a quarter more”.
I think a Doper fired a contractor who said the ⅓ hp motor on his garage door opener wasn’t powerful enough, and that he needed a ¼ hp motor. Can’t remember the poster’s name.
