Pastor Caught Burglarizing Home on Christmas Eve
– December 28, 2010Posted in: Misc.
No this isn’t the most absurd story we’ve heard but the pastor’s excuse/reasoning is priceless.
Never has Serita Agnew’s faith been so shaken. Police told her that the person who stole fur coats and laptop computers from her home was not a random criminal… but her trusted pastor.
The alleged crime took place on Christmas Eve.
“I’m still having a hard time,†Agnew said. “I don’t know what it was about.â€
She said her pastor, Sandy McGriff, called her on Christmas Eve, shortly before the break-in. A short time later, police said a neighbor spotted the 52-year-old preacher breaking a window and climbing in. (C+D)

Justin Bieber, Dr. Dre Together at Last
– December 16, 2010Posted in: Misc.
This is awesome…this lil boy is making all the right moves to be one of the most successful people of all time at his age.
Just one short year ago, we’d never heard of inexplicably popular, puberty-dodging, Lego-haired pop homunculus Justin Bieber. A year down the line, the creamy-complexioned irritant still doesn’t have any body hair, but he does have Justbeats Solo: his own signature Monster Beats by Dr. Dre headphones.
The Justbeats Solo headphones are over-ear cans available in white and purple, which is little Jussy’s favorite color. The tortuously named iBeats by Dr. Dre Justbeats Edition are an in-ear version. The headphones come with a voice-activated remote control for hands-free chatting to BFFs when plugged into your iPhone.

Favre Won’t Play Again…
– December 14, 2010Posted in: Misc.
…unless the feeling in his hand comes back? Seriously? Can anyone say time to retire? I knew after watching him as a Jet that his days were numbered…but when does owning every QB record of all time get old?
After 297 consecutive starts over 19 seasons, one of the greatest individual streaks in all of sports, Brett Favre ran into an injury he couldn't beat and sat down.
The 41-year-old Vikings quarterback, who fought through broken bones, aches, pains and personal grief to play week after week, couldn't make it for the Minnesota Vikings in their 21-3 loss to the New York Giants on Monday night. Favre was sidelined by a throwing shoulder too damaged for even him to overcome.
"Seems like I been hurt a lot worse," Favre said after the game. "I can't believe something like this hasn't happened before."
