Saw that bus story earlier this week. What I read was a bit more in-depth and suggested that the kid wasn't necessarily being an idiot and sticking his head out the top for kicks, but that it was extremely hot on the bus and they were trying to get some air. Not sure if that's true or not.

I have seen millions of DUI suspects over the years as a server in a restaurant. The answer is... yes.

I once sat on a bus for an hour waiting for a person that was already on the bus. Was very frustrating.

I went to grade school with a kid that was the youngest of 18 children. He had several nieces and nephews that were 4+ years older than him. It was bizarre.

My older brother was about to turn 25 when our half brother was born. If hed had a kid then suddenly that child wouldve been older than their uncle.

Not to make light of the guy's death, but the first line in that article is ridiculous:

A man accused of imitating an NFL quarterback in prayer has killed himself, authorities say.

Umm... I think he was accused of an actual crime.

That is just bizarre any way you look at it.
