It may not be a sin to play "Candy Crush" in church, but it's definitely not cool to FORCE JESUS to cover your in-app purchases.   A 51-year-old Catholic priest in Pennsylvania named Lawrence Kozak allegedly used a church credit card to spend over $40,000 on "power-ups" in mobile games like "Mario Kart Tour" and "Candy Crush".   And it wasn't just one REALLY wild frenzy . . . the charges have spanned three years.  (!!!)   According to police, an accountant at the church discovered "an astronomical amount of Apple transactions" on the church's credit card statements.   Detectives also discovered that Lawrence's Amazon account had [...]

2024-05-01T15:43:40-05:00May 1st, 2024|Categories: KARZ, KKCK|

Personally, I've never heard this about The Rock, but there are reports that he's chronically late to his various projects, and it causes serious issues. For instance, when he was filming "Red Notice" back in 2020, his lateness caused a rift between him and Ryan Reynolds. . . supposedly to the point that Ryan had to tell him he was affecting the shooting schedule. And this was during COVID when there were strict protocols that already made it difficult to shoot. Sources say the issue wasn't as bad as some media outlets are making it seem.  They got past it, and "Red Notice 2" is in the [...]

There are signs that someone is driving DRUNK:  They're speeding . . . they're swerving . . . they're drifting into another lane . . . or they're driving a wrecked truck with a 20-foot tree stuck to it.  (???)
