Heaven forbid I should ever live in a place like this.

A Florida man who lives in a 55-and-over gated community called cops last week after his two cars were spray painted with the words “No Kids,” apparent neighborly retribution for his four-year-old granddaughter occasionally staying at his residence.

Nuts for Dunkin’ 0

I hope I never want a doughnut this bad.

(And, if I did, it sure wouldn’t be a Dunkin’. It would be a Krispie Kreme.)

“An Armed Society Is a Polite Society” 0

Out in the hill country, it would seem that some think that more guns mean more safety.

After recently declining Bedford Sheriff Mike Brown’s request to place resource officers in all county schools, the Bedford (Va.–ed.) County Board of Supervisors is entertaining a new idea to make campuses safer: asking the state to consider legislation to allow school staff to carry concealed weapons.

I cannot picture my mother packing heat while teaching Algebra II.

Words fail me.

Scam Alert 0

A new scheme appears to be moving in just as many folks prepare to move out.

“Consumers are being scammed $10, $15, maybe $30 for changing their address online,” says Paul Krenn, US Postal Inspector.

The Post Office offers the service for free in person or a dollar online.

College Admissions 0

Reform is clearly needed.

Fire officials blame a flaming beer-pong ball for starting a fire inside a college student’s apartment in Bloomsburg.

The Press Enterprise of Bloomsburg (http://bit.ly/17mkggs ) reports the student was using a lighter to pop a dent out of the ball Friday afternoon when he dropped it.

If they actually do tie up traffic on the beltway, how the heck will anyone tell the difference from a normal beltway day?

Art Museums need not apply. John Aravosis reports:

Facebook today banned mention of a new art exhibition at Paris’ famed Musée d’Orsay impressionism museum, claiming that the exhibit violates Facebook’s “community standards.”

Ruh roh.

The exhibit in question, called “Masculin,” is a look at the naked male form from 1800 to the present.
