Doesn't come with spell-check
-Those things don't come with erasers, you know...-
Chicago, IL resident Michael Duplessis is suing a tattoo parlor for "emotional distress from public ridicule." It seems that in 2005, he wanted 'CHI-TOWN' (pronounced 'shy-town') tattooed on his chest. Except he didn't get the popular civic nickname, he got 'CHI-TONW' tattooed on his chest. Attention to detail is very important in a tattoo artist. (AP)
-He's a Great AmericanTM-
Sean Hannity has been warning his audience that Hillary Clinton could be elected president. Yeah, that's a huge revelation. According to media critic Brian Lowry, "More people would recognize this, Hannity lamented recently to his listeners [of his radio show], were the public not preoccupied with trifles like Anna Nicole Smith and Britney Spears, leaving it to committed patriots like him to educate them." What did Sean open Hannity & Colmes with on FOX News the night after his radio rant? The news that Anna Nicole Smith is still dead and can't be elected president. (Variety, via TVNewser)
-More nuts with swords-
Hilton Head Island, SC resident Elvis Javier Polanco was in the hospital facing charges after breaking into his ex-girlfriend's place with a sword. Unfortunately for Elvis, her roommate, Louis Delgado Hernandez, also had a sword. What followed was something I imagine looked less like a scene from Robin Hood and more like a couple of idiots knocking shit over with swords. Polanco suffered a cut on his arm and was disarmed by Hernandez, who no doubt snatched the sword away while shouting, "Aha! I have you now!" (AP)
