Hey, when ya gotta go, ya gotta go. Down, that is...
A pilot narrowly missed highway signage to make a daring emergency landing on a major Florida road. Flight instructor Emily Shelton, 21, performed the skilful manoeuvre after smelling fumes in the cockpit and warning air traffic control: “We’re not making it to the airport.”
Cashcam footage shows the moment she glided under highway signs, avoided traffic and safely landed on the interstate. Emily, who has logged around 1,300 hours of flight time, had been taking a student on his first ever lesson when she reported the smell of burning fuel.
She told air traffic control: “Our oil pressure is dropping down into the red, and we do have fumes in the cockpit from the oil.” As the situation worsened, she warned controllers that they would not make it to the airport. She said: “We would like to go ahead and declare an emergency. We’re losing our engine. We are not making the airport; we are going down on I-10. We are lined up trying to avoid the cars.”
Controllers replied: “Roger. It’s at your discretion, safe spot as possible. We’ll get the vehicles out for you.” Truck driver Eric Jordan, whose dashcam recorded the feat, described the landing as a “miracle”.
Hey Bud - where's your ear buds, Buddy...
A long-shot Hawaii Democratic congressional candidate received a dose of brutal karma last week after he harassed beachgoers at the beach. Kirill Basin, 40, was caught on camera in his underwear, shouting and threatening people relaxing at Keawakapu Beach in South Kihei after a 61-year-old man told him to turn his music down.
At one point, he’s seen walking to a group of people to argue before retreating and saying: “I told him if he wants to go to the hospital, come here.” But his loud confidence would be silenced soon enough. He got into an altercation with a large tattooed man, and tried to swing a beach chair at him. Watch for the right cross.
But before he could finish his swing, the man threw a powerful right-hand punch and made contact with Basin’s face.The shot knocked the Hawaii Democrat out cold. The larger fighter rubbed Basin’s sternum until he awoke and made a declaration. “Watch your fucking mouth Haole boy,” he told Basin, using a pejorative term islanders call white people.
Knocked that fucker out cold. Well played, my Hawaiian friend.

They put TVs in the cars. Of course it was gonna happen...
BMW owners are tearing into the luxury automaker after it pushed an ad for the new “Spider-Man” movie onto dashboard screens in cars they had already paid tens of thousands of dollars to own.
The full-screen animation - delivered through BMW’s main Control Display - triggered an immediate backlash from drivers who accused the German automaker of treating privately owned vehicles like rented advertising space. “Paying 50-100k for a car, yet still getting ADs,” one furious Reddit user wrote. “Next we need adblocker for cars.”
Two things. I will never buy a car - like one of these, or worse, a TESLA that has a flat screen TV and no dials or switches. AND, I'm sorry if this may offend a couple of you guys that own a Beemer, but I have never met anyone - anywere - that owned a Beemer who wasn't a complete, textbook jerkoff. Juss' sayin - some of you may also agree with that sentiment...

Never heard of 'em, won't miss 'em, who's idea was that?
Salad and Go, the drive-thru chain that started in Arizona more than a decade ago, is closing all stores on Wednesday. The company made the announcement in an email sent to customers on Tuesday evening, citing “sustained pressure on consumer demand, past strategic growth challenges and rising costs.” “Today, Salad and Go announced that all Salad and Go locations will close permanently, with final guest service on Aug. 5, 2026,” the email said.
The fact that they survived through the whole COVID shutdown bullshit is surprising enough, but I wonder if that whole 'explosive diarrhea' thing contributed to their demise. Anyway, I wonder who the private equity geniuses were that thought this was a good idea and bankrolled the founders, who quit the company a long time ago. I must not be light enough in my loafers to grasp this whole concept, but seriously - there were people standing in a line at a place to pay a super-premium price for a bunch of rabbit food. It boggles the mind. Sorta...

I thought you'd like to see who was the original ‘Girl From Ipanema'. The song was released 60 years ago and believe it or not she was NOT invited to the opening ceremonies. That's impossible to even imagine.
This is Heloisa ‘Helo’ Pinheiro, the woman that inspired the classic bossa nova tune,. This is her - posing a few years ago for a picture in Sao Paulo, Brazil. THis was her ten years ago at the age of 79...
The quintessential Brazilian/Bosa Nova song was inspired by Pinheiro when she passed the songwriter - Jaoa Gilberto - in a beachside bar on the beach in Rio.
I had no idea Frank covered it.Just doesn't come off as good.

What a wonderful (and frugal) thing this is, don'tcha think? Well guess what: Do you live in Colorado or Nevada? That water isn’t yours. You can’t have it. And you most certainly cannot set out a setup like this one to catch what falls from the sky, you thief. Water laws are so strict in these two states that rainwater collection is virtually prohibited. The doctrine is written into the state’s Constitutions. All the rain is already spoken for. It belongs to someone else, and that someone else isn’t you.
And politicians wonder why they are hated so vigorously by so many of us...

You don't need an ID to vote, but wanna hunt wabbits?
Texas is adopting a major ID overhaul that will affect millions of hunting and fishing licenses. The new rules went into effect on Monday. Texas Parks and Wildlife Department are adopting strict new identity rules to ensure in-state license holders are actually Texas residents. Texans and other customers aged 17 and up must provide identification to get a hunting or fishing license.
The rule is meant to prevent fraud and give only Texas residents in-state pricing. The new requirement apply to most recreational hunting, fishing, and combination licenses.
They also apply to Super Combo licenses, which bundle several permits together for a lower price, and one-day fishing passes.
The requirement does not apply to youth hunting licenses, and those under the age of 17 don’t need a fishing license. For Texas residents, an unexpired Texas driver’s license or state-issued ID is acceptable – which includes both standard licenses or REAL ID...
He musta sold some Russian some bad cabbage...
A 52-year-old Ukrainian vegetable vendor named Yurii survived a harrowing attack in August 2026 when a Russian first-person view (FPV) drone hunted him through a street market in Kherson. Footage released by Ukrainian police showed the drone pursuing him around his delivery van before detonating.
The Attack in KhersonThe Victim: Identified as Yurii, a 52-year-old civilian from the neighboring Mykolaiv region who was setting up his produce stall with his wife.
A remotely piloted FPV drone zeroed in on Yurii, chasing and circling him as he tried to use his vending truck for cover. He recalled trying to hold up garlic and point at his vegetables to show the operator he was only a civilian, but the drone continued its assault and exploded nearby.
Yurii sustained a concussion, severe shock, and shrapnel wounds to his legs and back, but survived the blast. That drone had actually chased the poor bastard around his truck a couple of times before going off.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha condemned the event as a deliberate war crime.
Officials and human rights monitors noted that the attack fits a broader, systematic pattern of terror tactics in frontline areas like Kherson—locally referred to as a "human safari" — where small Russian drones have frequently targeted unarmed civilians.

Take a hike, you tattooed twat...
For the record, I Googled the phrase 'tattooed twat' and you honest to God don't wanna know what it came back with. Yeesh,
Anyway, here's some pick-you-you and make you feel good news. The lefty Canadian illegal immigrant bitch who smacked a teen in patriotic clothing on a New Jersey boardwalk is getting the boot back to Canuckland.
A Texas immigration judge ordered Kaitlyn Tracey to be deported back to her home country Tuesday – before the teen slapper entered a guilty plea on assault charges stemming from the ugly, Fourth of July weekend brawl at the Point Pleasant boardwalk.
Tracey, 33 – who attended a criminal court hearing in Toms River over the phone from a Texas ICE lockup – only copped to one count of simple assault, a misdemeanor, as part of a cushy plea deal. Besides exile to Canada, she was sentenced to one day behind bars – though she was granted time served since she spent time in jail in Ocean County last month.
Tracey was nabbed after confronting a group of four teenagers - including a girl wearing a USA 250 tank top – before launching the mindless, twisted attack on July 3. While arguing with the teen, she allegedly slapped the girl across her face, according to police, who said the assault was caught on camera (above)...
