If you're already bored with the Olympics, check out highlights from last month's Snail Racing World Championships in England. It's riveting stuff. They put them all in the middle of a table with a ring at the outer edge, and the snail that makes it to that ring first wins. This year's champion was a snail named Jeff. He clocked in with an impressive time of 4 minutes and 5 seconds. (Here's the video. Jeff wins at 5:10.) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XTdbCouneuc

If you've got more than two or three kids in school, you might need to sell a kidney this month . . . A back-to-school shopping survey found it costs parents an average of $586 per child. (!!!) That's actually down slightly from last year when it was $597. Two-thirds of parents said they already did most of their shopping last month though, to get the best deals. (Amazon Prime Day was July 16th and 17th.) Here are a few more quick back-to-school shopping stats . . . 1. Parents spend the most on clothing and accessories. Tech is next, so [...]

Talk about a case of the Monday's. Jared Cooper works for a window washing company in Mobile, Alabama called Squeegee Squad. And on Monday afternoon, he was stuck dangling from the side of a building, 450 feet up. His equipment malfunctioned while he was cleaning the windows of Alabama's tallest building. The RSA Tower is 35 stories and 745 feet including the spire. He was just below the 33rd floor when a piece of equipment called a "descender" locked up, so he couldn't go up or down. He called 911, and firefighters were there within minutes. Then since he [...]

Brazilian surfer Gabriel Medina and his board, seemingly suspended in mid-air. FYI, Olympic surfing is happening in Tahiti . . . and the Olympic Village over there is actually a CRUISE SHIP. And yes, the surfers are kinda rubbing it in. https://twitter.com/kendallbaker/status/1818024655267283033?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1818024655267283033%7Ctwgr%5E61530510c57dba2c372804d3dc4916c30300bbf2%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.wisebrother.com%2Ftcs%2Fstory%2F182342

We've all heard stories about the CREATIVE ways people have tried to hide their drug stash. And then there's THIS lady. Cops in Florida pulled over a car on Saturday, when they saw the driver wasn't wearing a seatbelt. During the traffic stop, they noticed that the passenger was moving things around suspiciously. The 41-year-old woman was named Lauren Riley. The cops spotted drug paraphernalia, so they launched a full search of the vehicle. Inside Lauren's purse, they found a bag labeled, quote, "BAG OF DRUGS." (???) It contained crack cocaine . . . powdered cocaine . . . [...]

If you blocked COVID-19 news from your Google alerts, you haven't heard: Covid is surging again . . . with cases in 26 states "high" or "very high." (It doesn't sound like your existing concern-level should change.) So, here's a question for the people who RARELY or NEVER GET SICK . . . "What's the secret? Seriously." Some people are sharing their tips online . . . but unfortunately, most of them are NOT practical for everyone. 1. "Go to sleep early, and get nine hours of sleep every night." 2. "Stay away from kids." 3. "Stay active, and drink plenty of water." (Thanks, grandma!) 4. "Wash [...]

If you want to avoid mosquitos, think about having a SOBER summer. At least two studies have found you're more likely to get bit after drinking beer. (Yeah . . . I'll just deal with the mosquito bites then.) The science is still up in the air about why mosquitos love some people and couldn't care less about others. But here are a few more things that could be linked to mosquito bites . . . 1. Bananas. A study found people were more likely to get bit after eating a banana than after eating grapes. 2. Really smelly [...]
