THIS WEEK'S DEAR JOHN LETTER!(COMMENTS ARE WELCOME)
Dear
John,
I'm
not sure how to tell my parents this, but I'm not going to college.
They think I'm going to start classes soon, but I decided not to
follow through with college because I have a job I really like. They
have been so excited that I'm going to be the first person in my
family to go to college, so I'm afraid to tell them. How should I go
about this? I already worked with the school and have been able to
get out of the student loans that I was approved for. This will not
cost my family anything. My scholarships were not very big but I let
them go too. I found something I enjoy and plan to make a living
doing this. I don't need a degree to be happy, but how do I break the
news to my parents? I feel bad that I let it go several months
already. Any ideas?
Signed
– NotAStudent

A
flydubai flight from Kathmandu to Dubai was significantly delayed
after the pilot was found to be drunk. The flight was scheduled to
depart but was reportedly delayed over ten hours after the pilot’s
colleague suspected him to be under the influence of alcohol. The
airline confirmed the incident to Fox News in a statement, saying it
has a “zero tolerance policy on flight crew found to be in
contravention of the regulations regarding alcohol consumption.”
After administering a test, it was discovered the pilot had a blood
alcohol level over the legal limit and was “immediately deemed
unfit to fly,” the flydubai spokesperson said. Passengers were
given refreshments and the airline made other arrangements to get
them to their destination “as soon as
possible.”

For
decades, World Wrestling Entertainment star Kane has entered the ring
with his signature hype song playing in the background, 'Slow
Chemical' by Finger Eleven. On Thursday, the same song played as the
man behind Kane's character, Glenn Jacobs, approached the stage at
Crowne Plaza Hotel in downtown Knoxville to officially accept the bid
for Knox County Mayor. Buddy Burkhardt, with the Knox County
Republican Party, welcomed Jacobs to the stage and said, "I've
missed the mask." Part of Kane's WWE story line included burns
that required the character to wear a face mask to conceal the scars.
However, fans were rocked when Kane lost a championship match and was
forced to remove the notorious mask. On election night, Jacobs did
not wear the legendary mask. He told WVLT News he was excited for
people to get to know him beyond his WWE
character.

MOMENT OF DUH:By LearnWithoutLoans.com (Find Funding For College)
According
to astounding new reports, a trio of thieves stole a live shark from
a Texas aquarium by disguising it as a baby and smuggling it out
inside an infant carriage.
The
Saturday afternoon heist was so bizarre, local police at first
thought the whole thing sounded extremely fishy. A police chief said,
“When we first got the call, we thought it was kind of a hoax being
that it was Shark Week last week.”
The
bandits — two men and a woman — swiped the 1.5-foot predator from
an open tank at the San Antonio Aquarium, with one guy grabbing its
tail while the other two wrapped it in a wet blanket.
They
then placed the shark-baby in a stroller and wheeled the dripping
bundle out of the aquatic museum undetected before hopping in a
maroon truck. Police later found the truck and took a person of
interest into custody.
