“Man Pays Wife’s $25,000 Bond In Cash”

This headline seemed so stupid I had to read the accompanying article. A woman being charged with running a national prostitution ring had her husband post her bail in $1, $5, $10, $20, $50, and $100 dollar bills. This is almost as bad as posting your bail in change. Yong Williams of Cheviot was arrested in Covington (naturally) on charges of driving prostitutes across state lines and laundering her pimp earnings. You know, because just laundering money isn’t bad enough. Her husband listed sources of money as family and friends, I suppose all of those clients who support you could be considered friends? However, the icing on the cake to this story comes from John Doe No. 20, an out of state minister. He complains that the female who performed a paid for sex act on him talked on her cell phone the entire time. He says, “I don’t expect them to be interested, but they could pretend.” Better yet John Doe No. 20, you could be a minister who doesn’t pay for sex. I hope he at least took off the W.W.J.D. bracelet for this, because I’m pretty sure Jesus wouldn’t pay for sex.

“Dispute Over Planned Parenthood In Westwood”

Ok, this new Planned Parenthood is scheduled to open about 2 miles from another Planned Parenthood. Parents aren’t protesting the OLD Planned Parenthood, just the new one because it will be a negative influence on the kids in the neighborhood. Apparently just being in Westwood isn’t a bad enough influence on the kids? As a former resident of this upstanding community *insert laugh here* I get to say these things.

“Expect These NFL Teams To Miss The Playoffs Again”

The boys at Yahoo! Sports have come up with a mind-blowing list of teams that they think will miss the playoffs this coming season. This list includes: New York Jets, Cleveland Brown, Kansas City Chiefs, Detroit Lions, Arizona Cardinals. Who compiled this list, a 5 year old?! Was someone at the water cooler like, “Hey guys, I’ve got an idea…let’s predict that the 5 worst teams in the NFL won’t make the playoffs”. DUMB. Picking no brainer teams isn’t very edgy, this list is as ridiculous as picking the Falcons vs. Ravens for next years Super Bowl match up. Lame, Yahoo!, lame.
