This story isn't necessarily weird -- but this 81-year-old pervert is definitely weird. And of course it happened in Florida. The old creep needs some heavy medication -- and maybe a straitjacket.

This Salt Lake City couple allowed their two-year-old to help them shred junk mail. In retrospect, that may not have been their brightest decision.

In January, a Museum Of Selfies opened in Glendale, California. It was temporary. Inexplicably, it was also popular. It now has a permanent home in Hollywood. The Museum Of Selfies opens October 12 at 6757 Hollywood Boulevard. Adults and children can pay $25 and $20, respectively, to look at hundreds of tiny pictures of narcissistic schmucks -- and I just know they'll take selfies of themselves at the Selfie Museum!

Stan Lee, who co-founded Marvel Comics and co-created Spider-Man, Thor, the Hulk, the Fantastic Four and many other characters, died November 12 at 95. I know not how anyone could confuse movie director Spike Lee with Stan Lee but I guess not everything is black and white.

I think the people at PETA are as crazy as a loon and as dumb as a dodo bird. If they honestly expect us to clam up and not use "anti-animal" phrases, they're beating a dead horse.

While this news is discouraging, I still hold out hope that tic-tac-toe, arm wrestling and Pokémon GO will someday be included in the Summer Olympics.
Olympic leaders cool to the idea of adding video games to their Games
Los Angeles Times, Dec 8 2018 12:55 PM
How far will Olympic leaders go to attract a younger audience? For now, at least, they seem to be drawing the line at video games. Not long after expressing interest in e-sports, representatives of the Olympic movement issued a statement today explaining that "a discussion about the inclusion is premature." Their decision emerged from a major summit in Lausanne, Switzerland, where attendees expressed numerous concerns. They found some games too violent to be compatible with Olympic values and worried that the industry is too fragmented to accommodate an international governing body. They also balked at referring to video games as a "sport."

Tokyo man marries computer-generated hologram
CNN, Dec 29 2018 12:19 PM
Akihiko Kondo doesn't have the air of a rebel. This year, however, the bespectacled school administrator bucked conventional norms. He married a hologram. Kondo's November wedding to cyber celebrity Hatsune Miku -- which is not legally recognized -- provoked mixed reactions in Japan and abroad. Some were dumbfounded by his choice of a three-dimensional laser image over a human. Others congratulated him. But the 35-year-old, whose spartan home on the outskirts of Tokyo is dotted with plush Miku dolls and paraphernalia, doesn't care what others think. He simply did what made him happy.

Florida city commissioner resigns following complaints she licked men's faces, groped them
NBC News, Feb 7 2019 10:50 AM
The city commissioner of a small beach town in Florida has resigned after being censured amid complaints she allegedly licked her male co-workers' faces and groped them during meetings and events. Nancy Oakley, who served as Madeira Beach city commissioner from 2007 to 2013 and again from 2017 to 2019, submitted her letter of resignation Tuesday. The Florida Commission on Ethics found that Oakley violated the state's ethics code by "misusing her position by exhibiting inappropriate behavior toward city staff."
