More Morons in the News
Two juveniles arrested after pizza ploy by police
Man, if cars ran on stupid, the debates in this country over drilling in Alaska and wind farms off the coast of Nantucket would be rendered moot.
But, it's not just morons in the news. Here we find one writing the news.
With an inch-and-a-half barrel diameter? I would think so!
UPDATE: OK, I know I had already signed off for the weekend, but in the interest of journalistic integrity, I couldn't let this important update wait until Monday.
The St. Louis Post-Dispatch has "corrected" their earlier mistake from the story above.
Yeah, THAT'S better.
UPDATE: The third time's a charm!
Pretty quick too. If only Dan Rather and CBS could be so efficient in the corrections department.
BOSTON (AP) -- A Boston police officer turned pizza deliveryman and nabbed two would-be robbers last night.
It all started when the owner of a Roxbury pizza shop told police he had just received an order from an apartment where his deliveryman had been robbed the week before.
So, according to police, an undercover officer decided to pose as a deliveryman and see what happened when he arrived with the pizza. A number of other officers were sent to wait outside.
Police said the "deliveryman" rang the doorbell and announced "pizza" several times. When the door opened and he stepped into the foyer of the apartment, he saw two people dressed in black, wearing masks and holding knives.
The officer revealed his true identity and arrested the suspects with the help of other officers who rushed in.

The blast from the 38 mm handgun produced a surprisingly strong kick, one that caused Audrey Sementilli to shake her head as she placed the pistol back on the counter in front of her.
