    Kidnap suspect leaves money to victim's family

    has anybody been paying attention to that story about the california gal that got abducted by a close family friend after he killed her mom and then he got shot in the idaho woods? and he left his life insurance to the girls dad's mom? something is not right here. i'm guessing it's one of those 'if i can't have her nobody will' tragedies, with a twist. i bet a dna comparison of the family friend, mom, and abducted teen would have a lot in common. but that kind of stuff happens all the time.

    here's the strange part: they press keeps following her around taking photos like she's lindsay lohan going to a nightclub. c'mon people, she's a teenager. on the other hand, if your family has been through a tramatic event and you want some privacy and don't want that kind of exposure it's best not to run around like lilo on a saturday night.

    what a crazy world.

    FOX News - World - Latest Headlines - Mexico ships 1st load of best tequila to China - Page 1 of 1

    The shipment of more than 70,000 bottles contains nearly 14,000 gallons of 100 percent blue agave tequila, considered the best quality.A Friday ceremony in Guadalajara marked the departure of the $412,000 shipment for the Pacific port of Manzanillo. Mexico says the shipment will arrive in China in 25 to 35 days.
    70k bottles... 25-35 days... hmmm.

    now i'm no expert, but i do have some experience with tequila. and boats.

    i bet that delivery docks a month late, at minimum 60 bottles short, and with at least two extra undocumented hispanic gals. just saying.

    ONE-MAN CLUSTER BALLOON ATLANTIC OCEAN ATTEMPT!

    Early this morning Cluster Balloon Pilot Jonathan Trappe launched his cluster balloon flight attempt to cross the Atlantic Ocean.

    He certainly has more guts than I do to attempt such a thing. He has multiple trackers and the links are on his webpage, www.clusterballoon.com as well as below. He has promised updates to his Facebook page through his journey, though if he is not able to do so it is certainly understandable.

    I wish him good winds and a safe, dry landing somewhere in Europe.

    Delta reviewing video to determine how boy hopped flight to Vegas - CNN.com

    this 9 year old boy apparently got himself to the airport on 2 consecutive days, stole some luggage, ate for free and skipped out on the bill by convincing the vendor to watch the stolen luggage while he went to the bathroom, made it through security, took a flight to vegas without
    a boarding pass, and wasn't discovered until just before landing.

    now there are a whole lot of unaswered questions here and he may need to polish his technique a little, but i'm betting this kid has a bright future.

    Yep. I'm thinking a Democrat President or Senator.

    i was thinking a used car salesman or a wall street banker, but it's hard to tell any of those four apart.

    seriously though, that boy's parent has some answering to the authorities to do. i would recommend just saying 'that's right he flew to vegas on his own, i raised him to be resourceful and independent!' when she asks 'but how did you know where he was or if he was ok?' then you say 'i'm a parent, i always know where my kid is and if he's ok, you're a parent too so you understand, right?' if she is a mom you walk out of there scot free. if she says 'no, i'm not a parent' then you give her a wink and ask 'so, do you want to be one?' 9 times out of 10 you leave with a date, in handcuffs if you're lucky.

    I have no idea if James ever had a hand in raising any of his progeny.

    Now think about this a little. Most of us of a certain age could have gotten away with this due to the fact our parents let us roam around. A big city like MSP, I don't know. Lot's of us got up to mischief of some sort. Many of us didn't live in a city.

    Whatever the future holds for this young person. I doubt it includes corporal punishment. Parental Child Services in both states will prevent that. No matter what the parents are like they are now subject to a life of scrutiny.

    I am sure that eventually TSP will blame it on the government shutdown, though it happened before 1 Oct.

    Perhaps MaCaulay Culkin is to blame or perhaps any such producers, directors or any others involved in such films.

    What would "Lesus" do? He would probably spell-check his work.
