Every morning for the past five years, someone would drive by my house and throw a copy of the local newspaper in my driveway. I never saw this person, because I’m not one to get up much before 9am. Most of the time, the paper would make its way from the driveway to the garage [...]

Readers of this morning’s Wilkes-Barre, PA Times Leader and Citizens Voice newspapers, were shocked to learn that an elephant killed his groomer in between shows at the Irem Shrine Circus that is currently playing at the Kingston Armory. According to published reports, “Dumbo” the African elephant, fatally injured the groomer after being startled in the [...]

I can’t think up one of my two-title-titles for this post. I can’t even muster up enough words to express my angst for the justice system in Luzerne County.

The former football player who got knocked in the head one too many times, plead guilty to accepting a bribe from a developer. In return Skrepenak can spend 3 to 4 years in the lock-up. [...]
