Oh - I thought they said he was 'depressed', not 'compressed'. Damn - what a way to go...

This is such a sad, stupid story abut this kid that I certainly can't make any silly jokes about it, but if there must be jokes I'll leave them to you guys.

A 19-year-old New Jersey man was crushed to death by a garbage truck that scooped him up from a dumpster - which he had crawled into after leaving a party.

 The remains of Kellen Bischoff, of Manahawkin, were found at the Total Recycling Facility in Birdsboro, Pennsylvania, after the truck made its stop Saturday morning, NJ.com reported.

Bischoff, a drummer in a local band called Hellfire, had been visiting a relative in Kutztown, in Berks County. The young musician had been reported missing to the Kutztown Police Department. He was last seen early Saturday after he left an off-campus party near Kutztown University.

Surveillance footage captured him climbing into the dumpster in the back of a Dollar Tree. A few hours later, the contents were deposited into the recycling truck, where he met his gruesome death.

 

Police identified Bischoff by his tattoos. On Monday, an autopsy determined his cause of death and found no unexplained injuries or signs of foul play on his body. A toxicology report is pending results.

I honestly coudn't give a fuck if LA just slid in to the Pacific and disappeared entirely, and my dislike of the City comes from first-hand knowledge. Hell - I'd probably laugh out loud if it did. I lived there for a few months back in the mid-70's in the area they call 'the Valley'. Place was a shithole and almost to a person everybody was either a degenerate, totally self-obsessed or bat-shit frickin' crazy. All that being said, I like this outcome for two reasons. 

First, the piece of shit billionaire who usta be a Republican but changed his stripes just to run for Mayor put about $ 150 million of his own money in to his campaign and still lost, so fuck him. I hope he created a lot of jobs with all the dough he pissed away.

Secondly, and it's because I loath everything and anything about that city, I wish them nothing but success with their new Mayor. This is NOT any manner of racist statement on my part even if you think it is - because it ain't. I hope she proves herself to be as successful as every other black woman mayor of any other big city in the country. They're all trainwrecks. LA deserves the same. Fuck 'em. Juss' sayin'...

Ohio officials have issued a warning after thousands of carnivorous minks were released during a break-in at an Ohio farm on Monday night.

According to police reports, the mass mustelid breakout occurred between 1 a.m. and 4 a.m. after vandals destroyed fencing Lion Farms USA Mink Farm in Hoaglin Township, local channel WANE15 reported. As a result, some 25,000-40,000 mink were released from the cages.

Thankfully, the farm workers were able to wrangle the minks that remained on the property, leaving around 10,000 of the fur-bearers unaccounted for. Meanwhile, reports state that many of the animals who fled were killed shortly after being found, while so many minks died crossing a nearby road that a plow was enlisted to help remove the carcasses

If you're planning on going to Walt Disney World in 2023, be prepared to dig seriously deep into the savings account. That's when prices on most ticket types will be increasing, including single-day tickets, multi-day passes and annual pass renewals.

The company's flagship resort in Orlando, Florida, already hiked up ticket prices in February, making this the second time in a calendar year that entry into the "most magical place on earth" has become ridiculously and prohibitively expensive.

A Disney spokesperson said that this is driven 'by continued strong demand and significant investment across the company's theme parks in recent years'.

The current price for a one-day, one-park ticket is between $109 and $159, depending on demand. But starting December 8, that range will now also depend on the park you choose to visit. Three out of the four theme parks will be more expensive to visit, with Magic Kingdom and Disney's Hollywood Studios both seeing more than a 12% increase.

 

A family of four visiting Florida Disney for a three-night, four-day visit can expect to pay upwards of $7,500.00 for the privilege of being gouged for food, drink, lodging and tickets that will allow to to stand on line for  90 minutes to take a 3 minute ride.

That's a fairly evocative shot, isn't it? Are they walking towards the event at sunset, or are they finally making it home for the event after spending all night in the bushes?
