More Things to Worry About
Gildazio Costa, 54, was charged with domestic assault in Framingham, Mass., but the attack apparently came only after an "all-day argument" he and his girlfriend were having "over [what] the public library's operating hours [are]." Metrowest Daily News
The Way The World Works: Turns out (according to bankrupt Circuit City's headquarters) that ya need to pay bonuses to executives to keep 'em on the payroll not just during good times but also during flame-outs (because it takes an exquisite set of skills to help a company document the mess the skills caused). Richmond Times-Dispatch
Ephriam Bennett said he's not guilty of rousting the sleeping man, restraining him with duct tape, and kicking and stabbing him . . because it was self-defense (I mean, after I broke in to the home in the middle of the night, the resident insulted me and took a swing at me, said Bennett, and what was I supposed to do to protect myself?). Associated Press via Portsmouth Herald
The Federal Aviation Admin. revealed that hackers recently broke into its computers, but we can all relax because the only thing they might have gotten were employees' names and Social Security Numbers, i.e., hacked the old-fashioned way, without a CIP device. Washington Post
Mayor Jerry Oberholtzer of Snellville, Ga. (pop. 15,000, a suburb of Atlanta), is feuding with City Council Member (and code-violating landlord) Robert Jenkins and has asked the chief of police at least once to walk Hizzhonor to the men's room 'cause he's afraid Jenkins will beat him up. Associated Press via Yahoo
Amanda Gessner, 19, was charged with seven arson counts in Upper Darby, Pa., and was allegedly caught on video whistling while she worked, sorta (singing "The fire company is going to be mad at me"), enhancing her status as a Person With Issues. Philadelphia Inquirer
Loner-ranchers in the Wyoming sticks are getting ticked off at Scientologists because the contractors tearing up adjacent land appear to be working for the Church, possibly constructing an underground vault for stuff like the writings of Mr. Hubbard. Associated Press via Fox News

all-day argument PMS and booze just don't mix.
Circuit City When you fire all the employees that have been around long enough to know what they're doing and hire newbies for minimum wage you may just be a CEO!
Self-Defense Not Guilty! Oh.... wait.... he's not an illegal so Guilty!

All day argument: 3 easy steps to resolve this confilt
1: find phonebook
2: look up library
3: call and ask what their hours are!!!
Circuit City: I'm surprised they didn't just fire all the good accountants and hire some college interns to do it. But I guess saving money isn't as important in the final stages of bankruptcy.
FAA to hackers: If you are gonna hack our website, at least do it right. Here are some helpful hints...
Scientology: Sounds to me like they are building a giant nuclear bunker to prepare for the impending apocalypse. Holy Vault 13, anyone?

Scientology: Um, isn't there already a vault for Hubbard's writings? It's called the Fiction section of the library.

BikerPuppy - Watch what you say! You don't want to upset Tom Cruise.

maybe we'll get lucky and all of the scientologist will move into the vault. MI2 sucked anyway.

patty - I don't know about libraries all around the country but my local library doesn't just have books. They also carry CDs and DVDs as well as VHS. Great place to go if you don't want to pay to rent a movie.
