sfgate.com Radio Contest Winner Sues Over Candy Bar LEXINGTON, Ky. (AP) - A woman who won a radio contest that promised the winner "100 grand" sued after the station gave her a candy bar - a Nestle's 100 Grand - instead of $100,000. Norreasha Gill filed a complaint Wednesday in Fayette District Court against Atlanta-based Cumulus Media, which owns WLTO-FM in Lexington. Gill, 28, says the station and its parent company breached a contract to pay $100,000 to the contest winner. Night host DJ Slick sponsored the station's contest to "win 100 grand," Gill said in the lawsuit. Gill won by listening to the radio show for several hours and being the 10th caller at a specified time. She went to the radio station the next morning to pick up her prize, but was asked to return later. When she got home, she found that the station manager had left a message explaining she had won a 100 Grand candy bar, not money. Later, he offered her $5,000, Gill said. "I said I wanted $95,000 more," she said. "Nobody would watch and listen for two hours for a candy bar." DJ Slick did not return an e-mail from the Herald-Leader, but he said on his Web site that he had left his job. WLTO and Cumulus declined to comment, identify DJ Slick by his given name or say whether he was fired. Experts said the radio station could face action by the Federal Communications Commission, which licenses radio stations. FCC regulations say contest descriptions can't be false or deceptive and that stations must conduct contests as advertised. Stations in two other states have been fined for contests that told listeners they'd won cash prizes without specifying they were in the Italian or Turkish lira, not the U.S. dollar. Before her family went to sleep that night, Gill says, she promised her children - ages 1, 5 and 11 - that they'd have a minivan, a shopping spree, a savings account and a home with a back yard. "What hurts me is they were going to get me in front of my children, all dressed up, and hand me a candy bar, after all those promises I made to them," she told the Lexington Herald-Leader. "You just don't do that to people."

Ask yourself... what would ed do, then do the opposite.

That's if she can pass the stringent union entrance exam that Spikes16 was telling us about.

She deserves it... everytime I stop by her shop, she forgets who I am.

washingtonpost.com Pizza Shop Robber Left Job Application LAS VEGAS (AP) - A man accused of holding up a pizza parlor left behind a job application with his real name and address, authorities said. "I would chalk it up to either inexperience or plain stupidity," Clark County prosecutor Frank Coumou told the Las Vegas Review-Journal for a Wednesday report. Alejandro Martinez, 23, of Las Vegas, was being held Wednesday at the Clark County jail pending a Monday appearance in Clark County District Court. He faces felony burglary and robbery with a weapon charges in the May 25 heist. Authorities said Martinez ordered a pizza and started filling out the application before displaying a gun and demanding money. The clerk handed over $200. Outside, a witness wrote down the license plate number of a getaway car, leading police to Martinez' home. Martinez' lawyer, Deputy Public Defender James Ruggeroli, said authorities have the wrong man. He said said the pizza shop clerk couldn't identify Martinez as the robber, and the job application was not presented as evidence at a preliminary hearing.

Where is cootiehog now days?

Don't worry... i heard that the Hulkster has a reality TV series coming out.

Well, the team is called the Kansas City T-Bones.

There is more to Moulds than stats. When defenses double team him, it frees up a Price or Evans for a big gain.

That's right... open two businesses in Western, NY. Then piss off your potential clients by saying the Bills will have a sucky season.

Washington Post Drivers Get Tickets After Meters Installed CHICAGO (AP) - It sounds like the meter maid's version of a speed trap: A ticket for parking at a meter that was installed after you park your car. But that's what happened in Chicago last week, where a handful of motorists returned to their vehicles and found parking meters - and tickets - that weren't there when they parked. According to a spokeswoman for the city's revenue department it was all just an innocent mistake. The way Efrat Dallal explains it, the vehicles were parked on a stretch of roadway where the meters were temporarily removed during street construction. Then, she said, the meters were put back and the vehicles parked in front of them were ticketed. But some motorists wondered if that was the case after at least one of the tickets was apparently postdated several hours after it was placed on a car. "It really angers me," said Vince Tessitore, an attorney who found what for drivers is the equivalent of money on the sidewalk: a vacant and cost-free parking space. "The city is strict enough in its parking restrictions already," he said. "Chicago gets plenty of revenue ticketing people by legal means without having to be deceptive." Police department spokesman Dave Bayless said the department employee, whom he said is a traffic aide and not a sworn officer, said she mistakenly put the wrong date on the ticket. Whatever happened, none of those who were ticketed on that short stretch of West Illinois Street last Tuesday night will have to pay up, Dallal said. She said to avoid improper ticketing, notices will be attached to meters to alert police and others when the meters were installed.

Off topic... I met a guy who maintained a satellite operating system for a living. He shared some interesting stories with me. Sometimes the satellite will get all foobar and just float in space. They would have to call him in to reboot the OS. He said every time he rebooted the OS it lost all its patches. So he would have to upload them from scratch.

yahoo.com Drunken man tries to ride lawn mower to grocery store Late-night cravings are nothing unusual, but Joseph Mundy's munchies landed him in trouble. The Ohio man was arrested and charged with DUI after attempting to ride his lawn mower to the grocery store. According to Delhi Township Police Lieutenant Richard Ideker, Mundy, 23, and a friend had allegedly been drinking. At about 3 a.m., they decided that they were hungry and planned a trip to a local grocery store. Mundy, who had a suspended license, drove the lawn mower without headlights and almost collided with a police vehicle patrolling the area. The officer conducted a field sobriety test, which both men failed, Ideker said. Mundy reportedly told the officer that he was heading for the store because he had the munchies. Mundy was taken to the police station, where his blood-alcohol level was recorded at .189. The legal limit in Ohio is .08. The suspect was charged with driving under suspension and operating a vehicle under the influence of alcohol. He was cited and released, while his lawn mower was impounded. His friend was not charged.

I wonder if they know that Ice Cube (aka O'Shea Jackson), has a degree in architectural drafting. Also that Dr. Dre came from a middle class family. Easy E was really a drug dealer. So at least one person from the group has some real street credibility.
