Stealing Bases

William Lopez a 21 year senior at NYU got kicked out of his graduation at Yankee stadium for attempting to run the bases. Apparently the students were instructed to stay off of the field but he couldn't resist. He made it all the way to third base, while being cheered by the crowd, but he was apprehended before he made it to home plate.

Dearborn Girl Sells 17,323 Boxes of Girl Scout Cookies

15 year old Jenifer Sharpe. I really don't think its fair this girl is like 15 years old. I guess she spent a shit ton of time sitting on street corners selling the stuff. She said that she wasn't doing well going door to door anymore. Let's just think about this for a second. A 15 year old teenager is on the street corner selling cookies to men driving home from work. Can you even be in the Girl Scouts when you are that old. Full story if you dare, after the break.

The Something Store!

For $10 you get something mailed to you. Just about anything. They wont send you drugs or alcohol though (i see a chance to pick up their slack on this one). Some people get really awesome stuff like mp3 players and robot alarm clocks. Other people get lame shit like a music CD from some band nobody has ever heard of. I can't wait to see what i'll get.
