Wacky bureaucrat engages in crazy hijinx

Will S.' Random Weirdness Blog

Or something.

The 1978-79 Michigan Highway map included some creative geography. If you looked at the part of the map that depicted neighboring Ohio, you found two new towns. There was Goblu, shown just east of Toledo near Bono, and Beatosu, shown to the west near Elmira. These names sounded a lot like the cries of University of Michigan football fans against rival Ohio State University.

They were included in the map at the order of Peter Fletcher, the highway commission chairman, who said he included the names to demonstrate his “loyalty to the Athens of the West, the University of Michigan.”

A bureaucrat with a sense of humour and fun! 😉

Austin man sues date for texting during movie

Good for him!

A Texas woman got a reminder this week that dating is the worst.

The 35-year-old woman may be facing a legal dispute after a man she met online, Brandon Vezmar, sued her last week for texting during their first date to the movies, according to the American-Statesman.

Vezmar, 37, filed a claim against his failed love interest, who did not want to be identified, asking her to reimburse him for the $17.31 ticket to a 3D showing of “Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 2” in Austin, Texas.

Vezmar claims his date started texting about 15 minutes into the film, which is apparently a movie etiquette transgression in his book.

“It was kind of a first date from hell,” Vezmar told the American-Statesman. “This is like one of my biggest pet peeves.”

I hope he wins.  She’s the rudest thing and thoroughly self absorbed.  He deserves his money back.

Agree completely!

Silvio Berlusconi says Emmanuel Macron is ‘a nice lad – with a good looking mum’

LOL! 🙂

Silvio Berlusconi has described Emmanuel Macron as a “good looking lad with a with a good looking mom,” in an apparent dig at the age gap between the newly elected French president and his wife Brigitte Trogneux.

The former Italian prime minister, who developed a reputation for diplomatic blunders during his years in power, joked on Monday that Mr Macron was a “39-year-old lad, with good work experience under him and most of all with a good looking mom who has carried him under her arm when he was still a child”.

Mr Berlusconi did not mention Ms Trogneux’s name.
