This little-known nugget was buried deep within the bowels of TMZ's website:
Turns out, Chris Rock was approached by Hollywood PD's forensics unit, immediately following the Oscars ceremony. Crime scene tape was unrolled around him. Techs swabbed the insides of his cheeks, and also dusted the outsides of his cheeks.
DNA results were inconclusive, but the dustings provided ample evidence of fresh prints...
If the sign says "Road Closed," there's likely a good reason, as one motorist found out Wednesday in Akron.
City officials say the driver went around warning signs and ended up stuck in freshly poured concrete at the intersection of Dart Avenue and Vernon Odom Boulevard around midmorning.
Workers were able to get the car out of the concrete and repairs to the roadway were relatively easy, as the concrete had not fully set, officials said. No injuries were reported.
The workers recommended the concrete be cleaned off the wheels and underside of the car before the concrete solidified. Akron police responded to the incident, but further information was not immediately available.
I actually had a gunstock type of camera mount. I really liked the thing, and it beat carrying around a tripod. One of the composite parts broke, and the shutter release receptacle didn't fit my newer cameras. Replacement parts are unavailable. If the company (Bush Hawk) hadn't gone out of business I'd probably still be using it. It got quite a few second glances out on the trails, lol.

I guess that depends on your definition of "wildlife". I hunted for decades and have never seen anyone carry a rifle that even resembles that using it to shoot or capture what I consider to be wildlife. And I actually own weapons that resemble the one pictured.

I've seen people using weapons like that to shoot/capture wildlife of all flavors damn near daily, especially in the warmer months. Especially with folks that like to take those long-range shots.

Gonna make this thread fun again, and pass along a joke I read in Willie Nelson’s book “Roll Me Up and Smoke Me When I Die”
It’s Christmas time, and the postman knocks on a door to deliver a package. A beautiful woman lets him in, then says “come upstairs, I have something for you”
So they go upstairs, she boffs his brains out, gives him a dollar bill, then goes downstairs and makes him a huge breakfast: eggs, toast, bacon, hash browns, fresh fruit, the whole deal.
Still amazed, he looks at her and says, “what just happened here?”
And she says, “I asked my husband what I should give you for a Christmas tip. He said ‘screw him, give him a dollar.’ “Breakfast was my idea”
Johnny Cash mural is leaking from a crude spot after Arkansas water tower gets shot

An Arkansas town is upset after someone shot a hole in their water tower in a very specific, and unfortunate location.
The water tower in Kingsland, the birthplace of Johnny Cash, bears a painted silhouette of the famous Man in Black — but an unknown person recently took careful aim at Cash’s crotch and pulled the trigger. Now the mural is perpetually leaking from that spot, video shared May 11 by the Cleveland County Herald shows.
Kingsland, population around 400, is 72 miles south of Little Rock.
Betty Graham, water office manager, told the Herald it could take as long as a week to fix the damage.
She saw the leak when she went into the office early that morning but assumed it was “routine overflow,” until sunrise, when the cold light of day revealed the work of the crude vandal, the Herald reported. Kingsland spent almost $300,000 last year improving the water tower.
“Someone here knows who did this,” a comment read. “I hope they’ll come forward and turn the vandal in.”
“This is just terrible. If they find out who it was they need to give them the max punishment. This is people’s livelihood, their water source,” said another.
While not condoning vandalism, some felt that the perpetrator displayed a certain degree of panache.
“Shouldn’t have done it, but as far as creativity goes its 1st class,” a comment said.
Seeing harm come to the freshly refurbished water tower isn’t anything to laugh about, Graham said in a Facebook post.
“People think it’s funny but a lot of hard work and effort went into getting the grant to get this painted,” Graham said. “It’s sad that someone could do this. Please if anyone heard the shot and knows the time or was out last night and saw something suspicious please let me or someone with the water Dept or the sheriff Dept know.”
