Going Rogue One 0

A former employee of a Florida vending machine company dressed up in a Chewbacca costume and stole money from a pair of kiosks he previously maintained, according to cops who arrested the “Star Wars” devotee for grand theft.

Guess he figured he wouldn’t be noticed . . . .

Plans for Trump's new Air Force One with Donald Trump modifications:  Trump standing in doorway saying,

The Seattle Times wonders how canceling the order for new planes creates jobs. Meanwhile, Noz points out that the reason for Trump’s dissatisfaction with plans for Boeing to design and build the new planes is obvious. Here’s the gist:

Some Trump voters seem surprised to find out that he is exactly who he has been for his whole public life.

Droning On 0

Once more, it’s only a matter of time . . . .

From a high-rise rooftop on the west side of the Schuylkill, a 20-year-old Drexel University student allegedly operated a flying camera drone recklessly all the way to the Ben Franklin Bridge, and it nearly collided with a police helicopter Wednesday evening.

At one point, Joseph Roselli allegedly flew the drone as high as 1,500 feet, which is restricted for use by Philadelphia International Airport.

Roselli was charged with risking a catastrophe and recklessly endangering another person, court records show.

Aside:

I was in my local drug store the other day. They had quadcopters for sale on the toy rack.

Thinking is a lost art.

Twits on Twitter 0

Daniel Ruth doesn’t get the fascination of twitting.

From my distant observation it seems nothing very much good comes from twittering, or whatever you want to call it. Exhibit A: There is a 70-year-old man who looks like a paranoid traffic cone, who has been known to tweet at all hours of the wee morning attacking former beauty queens and, according to the New York Times, starting nearly 300 idiotic feuds with various people, places and things with the possible exception of the Future Farmers of America. We’re not exactly in Algonquin Round Table territory here. We’re not even in Alfred E. Neuman’s ZIP code.

Clowns to the Left of Me, Clowns to the Right of Me, Clowns in Authority 0

Coulrophobians will get a temporary sigh of relief this month in Kemper County, Miss., where a new ordinance makes it illegal for people of all ages to wear clown costumes, makeup and masks.

Since Monday, people have had to put their clown act on hold and will not be able to dress as one until after Halloween, on Nov. 1.

The stupid, it burns.
