The mayor of Mahwah, New Jersey admitted last week that he drank so much during a party at a township employee’s house that he took off his pants and passed out in her bed. Mayor John Roth said in an interview with the news organization that he apologized to the unidentified employee, who did not wish to comment in the report. The mayor’s actions were detailed in an anonymous letter signed by the “concerned employees of the township of Mahwah” that was circulated last week, according to the report. Roth was elected Nov. 6th, 2018 on the same ballot where former Mayor Bill Laforet was recalled from office. The recall of Laforet was launched in January 2018 by a group of citizens who were upset about Laforet accusing former Department of Public Works Director Ed Sinclair in 2015 of having pornography on his work computer, based on an anonymous letter he received.

FUN FACT FOR YOU:Share this with your friends... they'll think you're really smart!

Redheads aren't actually going extinct. Periodically, a rumor starts on the internet that says natural redheads will become extinct by the year 2060. Lucky for gingers everywhere, this is a myth. It's true that the gene that causes red hair is recessive, meaning that both parents must have it for their child to have red hair. However, even non-redheads can carry the red hair gene, and it can pop up unexpectedly in generations down the line.

Police in Connecticut are trying to identify a man they say got a job at a gas station and proceeded to steal $17,000 worth of merchandise and cash on his first, and only, solo overnight shift before disappearing. The man also stole his employment folder, which contained his personal information, so the store’s owner does not even know the worker’s name, Hamden police said in a statement Tuesday. Police responded to the Go On Gas store late last month. The owner told investigators he used an app on his cellphone to view the store security cameras and noticed that the new employee had left. The owner went to the store and determined that the worker had stolen lottery tickets, 89 boxes of cigarettes, and money worth a total of more than $17,000. The employment file was also missing.

MOMENT OF DUH: Brought to you by SingleStudentLoan.com

A Clearwater man is facing a felony charge after police say he threatened to shoot up his dentist’s office following a disagreement about his dentures. 66-year-old Bruce G. Clark was booked at the County jail on a charge of making threats of violence with a firearm. Bail was set at $10,000 and Clark was being held at the jail Thursday. According to an arrest report, Clark sent his sister to his dentist’s office on January 5th to pick up a pair of dentures that had been made for him. The office told the woman that she could not pick up the dentures for another patient. The sister then put Clark on the phone. “During the conversation (Clark) was belligerent and used foul language,” the arresting officer wrote in the report. “He told the victim 'I ought to come down there and shoot up all you motherf-----s.” The officer noted that this put the victim in fear and that she was “constantly looking out the window for his vehicle while working since this occurred.” (https://bit.ly/385rX1r)
