Not that I'm judging here but I'm starting to think I'm doing life ALL wrong: TMZ claims TLC offered the "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo" family a significant raise after just two episodes. Supposedly, they recognized that it was going to be a hit, and rewarded the family by bumping their pay from $5,000 to $7,000 per episode . . . to between $15,000 and $20,000 per episode

Random Stuff that'll make ya go...whaaaaa...
I'm sure 99.9% of the Chinese restaurants in this country are making good, clean food, and not getting caught for LEGENDARY health code violations. But it only takes that ONE story to make you suspicious of all of them and the Red Flower Chinese Restaurant in Williamsburg, Kentucky just became that story. Last Thursday afternoon, a woman named Katie Hopkins and her friends were eating at the Red Flower, and saw two workers wheeling in a garbage can. They were trying to be slick, but Katie spotted a large animal sticking out of the can. The workers wheeled it into the kitchen, trailing BLOOD behind them. Katie called the health department, and when a health inspector got there, he found out they'd just wheeled some ROADKILL into the kitchen. A dead deer, to be specific. The restaurant tried to explain that the dead deer wasn't going to be served to customers . . . it was for the owner and his family. As you'd expect, that excuse did NOT work. The Red Flower was shut down IMMEDIATELY. They can reopen if they pass the state's most rigorous health inspection, and prove they've sanitized the restaurant.
I hear ya man, this happens to me whenever I have a run in w/ management: Yesterday, a math professor at Michigan State University was teaching a freshman calculus class when he suddenly had some kind of NERVOUS BREAKDOWN. He started screaming, swearing, and then STRIPPED NAKED. Eventually the campus police got there and took him to a local hospital for an evaluation. He hasn't been charged with any crime
You guys know I don't fly b/c I'm scared crappless to do it and here's another reason why: On Saturday AND yesterday, American Airlines flights to Miami had ROWS OF SEATS come LOOSE during the flights and start sliding around the plane. Both flights made safe emergency landings. The sliding seats were blamed on subcontractors who didn't properly reattach the seats after maintenance.
