Just stuff I've seen flickering past my field of vision lately that caught my eye....

midnightvoyager: did you know that the Wichita City Hall had a drive-thru? Neither did I. Missed this when it originally happened; I confess to being a bit shamefully impressed with how well he did; better than I have in most of my similar digital exploits.
A football player named Owen Schmitt got his first start for the Seattle Seahawks this weekend. Well, he missed the first snap after, as he ran out onto the field during pre-game introductions and apparently part of a tradition of his, he smashed his helmet into his forehead repeatedly, but this time with enough enthusiasm to...well, watch the video. Or don't, if you're not into crimson-streaked athletes (it's in HD). He got all patched up during the national anthem, though, and was back out on the field for the second snap. See also the brief interview with the Seattle Times: "Discussing the finer points of non-linear algebra with Owen Schmitt" -- Just kidding. No discussion of higher math here. It's more like a new program called, "Helmet: Friend or Enemy?"
"Nighttime...DAYTIME! Nighttime...DAYTIME!"
How drunk do you have to be to be unable to simply get more beer? At a quarter 'til 11 in the morning? On a Tuesday? The answer: this drunk. Though, in his defense, maybe he just took an Ambien.

"Uh...no."
"Well then, cheerio."
It says something about this town that *I* don't remember the guy plowing through City Hall. I can verify that it was the real deal, though.

I almost went to see that game between Seattle and Jax, glad I missed it for that exposition and the horrible score. *cries*
I have to believe that drunk guy had absolutely no memory of that event. Though I'll take a guy that drunk over a guy making a drive-thru in city hall. Wonder if he would have still been spouting like an idiot in the courtroom if he was up on vehicular homicide charges?
