A
Nashville inmate claimed he “didn't have anything on him” as a
bag of pink Fentanyl was hanging from his buttocks. Kenneth A Johnson
is facing news charges of assault and possession of contraband in a
penal institution after the ordeal on Jan. 5th. According to police
affidavits and a jail incident report, Johnson was being searched on
suspicion of contraband. Reports say Johnson was non-compliant and
kept stating that he “didn't have anything” despite officers
reporting that a plastic bag was sticking out from between his butt
cheeks. Officers administered pepper spray to Johnson's face area and
buttocks area and were able to remove the substances, which turned
out to be tobacco and pink Fentanyl. At one point, an officer went to
reach for one of the baggies and Johnson is accused of stepping on
that officer's hand. (https://bit.ly/2M6tc6d)

to an email typo, a Phoenix man is about to head out for the party of
his lifetime. He’s going to a bachelor party for a man he’s never
met on the other side of the country, using money
he raised on GoFundMe.
The GoFundMe campaign was titled: Help me go to the bachelor party of
a stranger!” Will Novak got a group email with the subject line
‘URGENT INFO: Angelo’s bachelor party.’ He almost deleted it,
but his curiosity led him to open it. It was a bunch of guys talking
about going on a ski resort vacation for a bachelor party Martin
Luther King Day weekend. It turns out Angelo and all his buddies live
in Vermont. One of Angelo’s friends is also William Novak. His
email address is only one letter off from Will Novak’s in Arizona.
Hence the mistaken invitation.… Part of the invitation read:
“ATTIRE: Bring your ’80s attire, ridiculous awesome get-ups, etc.
For skiing, ask yourself, “What would Angelo wear?’ Wear that.”…
Will Novak from Arizona responded with an over-the-top reply: “I do
not know who Angelo is. I am a Will Novak who lives in Arizona.
Vermont seems like a very far way for me to travel for the bachelor
party of a guy I’ve never met. That being said: (expletive) count
me in! From the contents of this email, Angelo sounds tremendous and
I want to help send him off in style. I hope his bride (or groom) to
be, is awesome. I should note that being a desert dweller, I’ve
only been skiing once and I was real bad at it. I hope you all are
patient with me on the slopes. In exchange for said patience, I can
bring my sweet Nintendo Switch so we can play games in the
cabin/chalet/whatever in the evenings. If Angelo isn’t into video
games I’m happy to bring Sudoku puzzles or just Indian Leg Wrestle
or whatever he likes.”… The guys replied: “We agree that your
timely response may have been one of (if not the best) responses to
an e-mail that has ever been sent. And we insist on you coming, this
would surely make Angelo’s day. We can pick you up from the
airport. … Don’t worry about the video games, but bring Sudoku
puzzles (Angelo loves those), and yes we would prefer Indian Leg
Wrestling.”

A
brewery worker at craft beer brand Brewdog is responsible for a nasty
word (‘Mother F***er Day’) being printed on the bottom of
thousands of cans of beer — and has been rewarded by being named
Employee of the Month. The batch of 200,000 cans of Punk IPA had to
be recalled after Brewdog management were made aware when customers
uploaded images of the cans on to social media.… Graeme Wallace, a
packing manager at the Scotland-based company, was annoyed that his
bosses demanded that employees “be more punk” and decided to
print the swear word on the bottom of the beer cans. But despite the
recall the bosses laughed it off and named him Employee of the Month.
Probably
because the free publicity has been worth hundreds of thousands of
dollars.
A
six-hour standoff between police and a 40-year-old man who allegedly
splashed gasoline on the floor of a California (Novato) convenience
store “while threatening to burn it down” ended when police
defused the situation with a vape pen. The suspect was angry with
some kind of problem at the pumps early on Saturday morning before he
attempted and failed to ignite a gasoline-soaked floor mat at the
convenience store. Police also said he was angry over family issues.
After failing to set the convenience store on fire the man fled to
his car. Officers
delivered a cell phone to the man using a robot and were eventually
able to use it to negotiate with the suspect. An initial request for
a cigarette was denied due to the possibility he was covered in
gasoline, though law enforcement later talked him into accepting a
vape pen instead. This defused the situation. After the item was
delivered by the robot, the man stepped out of his vehicle and was
arrested without further incident.

Canadian air traffic controllers are carrying out a simple but heartfelt
gesture for their American counterparts — they’re buying them
dinner during the U.S. government shutdown. Air traffic controllers
in Moncton, New Brunswick, Canada, and Gander, Newfoundland, Canada,
sent pizza down the coast to controllers manning the stations at the
New York Air Traffic Control Center on Ronkonkoma, Long Island, New
York, on Friday night in support of their colleagues who are working
unpaid as the American government’s partial shutdown drags into its
fourth week. That Air Traffic Control Center on Long Island is a
radar facility that handles a large chunk of domestic and
international air traffic. Part of the center’s airspace lies up
against Canadian airspace, so in other words, these controllers ‘hand
off’ aircraft to one another, and work together to keep airplanes safe.
