Just a matter of....

Now, I am not a big college sports kind of guy. I will follow the local team (ASU), and because I do a bracket at work for the NCAA Tournement, I will try to keep up with the results. I did not win the bracket, as a matter of fact, I did pretty bad (yes, I got beat by women!). But, I was correct on who won the trophy. Duke and Coach K were victorious! But how close did they come to losing? The video above breaks it down. You almost feel bad for Butler, and you do feel bad for Gordan Heyward. Sooooo close!

I'll Be Gol-Danged

Princess Anne police arrested a burglary suspect after he fell asleep on a bed in an apartment he had broken into. Officers say 19-year-old Jaimie Goodson broke into an apartment on Saturday and had bagged numerous items from throughout the home and placed them near the entrance. Officers, called to the scene for a burglary in progress, found Goodson asleep on a bed. Goodson has been charged with burglary.

Police say a motorist fleeing officers in Cleveland abandoned his car and jumped a fence — landing in what turned out to be a prison yard. Garfield Heights police say the chase started in that suburb early Monday over a traffic violation and reached speeds of 90 mph. Police say that after a race through several communities, the driver and a passenger bolted from the car and headed for a fence. They apparently did not realize it was on the outside the state women's prison in Cleveland.

The dangling hose was the giveaway. Police have busted a South Bend, Ind. man for drunken driving. Other drivers called the cops to complain, after their cars were hit by a gas hose dangling from the man's truck. St. Joseph County Police say the 46-year-old failed several sobriety tests after he was stopped. Police report his blood-alcohol level later tested well over the legal limit. Employees at a service station say the man bought gas with a credit card and drove off with gas nozzle still attached.

Someone called the cops on a couple of Florida teenage girls breaking into cars. That someone happens to be one of the teens herself. Police in Daytona Beach report one of the girls accidentally called 911 from a cell phone. Dispatchers listened as the girls talked about busting into cars near a night club. Officers responded in an unmarked car. Police report arresting a 13-year-old who tried running and her 19-year-old friend.

My Favorite:

A Florida woman named Samantha Lynn Frazier was shot and injured as she tried to enter a bar in Atlantic City. The shot hit her in her love handle, which, she says, saved her life.” I don't want to lose weight anymore. I want to be as big as I can if it's going to stop a bullet."

Quote of the Day

You must begin to trust yourself.

If you do not, then you will forever be looking to othersto prove your own merit to you, and you will never be satisfied.

You will always be asking others what to doand at the same time resenting those from whom you seek such aid.
