A Wisconsin man who once called 9-1-1 for help in dealing with a snoring woman in his bed has been arrested for dialing police dispatchers and asking if they wanted to “fool around” or “spend some quality time together.” Cops say that last week 47-year-old Benjamin Duddles called the non-emergency line at the Waukesha Police Department four times over a 37-minute period and made some odd requests of police personnel. In one conversation with a female dispatcher, Duddles said, “It would be super-duper cool if we could spend some quality time together.” The operator replied, “I don’t know you so I don’t want to spend quality time with you.” While speaking with a male dispatcher during a second call, Duddles asked, “Well, do you wanna, you know, fool around?” “No, I don’t want to fool around,” the operator shot back. Officers sent to Duddles’s Milwaukee-area residence discovered him, not surprisingly, in an intoxicated state. According to court records, Duddles has been charged with a pair of misdemeanor drug counts and unlawful phone use. (https://bit.ly/3aTL93S)

A couple in California has created a massive mural of late basketball star Kobe Bryant with the help of a lawnmower and GPS. Pete Davis and Kelli Pearson, owners of Turfprinter, started with a simple black and white image. That image was loaded into Davis’ GPS-guided lawnmower, which creates dark and light shades by bending grass blades with air. The mural is 115-feet tall and 92-feet wide. https://myfox8.com/news/california-couple-uses-mower-gps-to-create-giant-grass-mural-of-kobe-bryant/

Share this with your friends... they'll think you're really smart!
Plastic Easter eggs and plastic Easter grass were invented by a man who holds more patents than Thomas Edison. If you've ever enjoyed an Easter basket with plastic eggs and grass, then you can thank Donald Weder, the man who invented both. Weder not only holds the patents on these holiday staples, he also holds a total of 1,413 U.S. patents—including ones for water-based inks, flower-pot covers, and decorative wrappers. That's compared to Thomas Edison, who held just 1,093 U.S. patents.

A woman dressed as Minnie Mouse got into a wild brawl on the Las Vegas strip caught on a now-viral video. Minnie quickly lost her head — at least from her Disney costume — as she repeatedly threw haymakers at a red-headed woman wearing a jacket with “SECURITY” on the back. At least one of her wild punches hit her partner, Mickey Mouse, as he tried to intervene in the ferocious-looking attack seen in a video viewed more than 4.5 million times by Thursday morning. A man dressed as Goofy looked bemused as he watched on, with Minnie yanking her opponent to the ground by pulling her hair, then mounting her as she continued a steady series of MMA-style blows. It was not immediately clear what started the brawl, although another short clip showed the two women in a shouting match before the brawl. A spokesman for Las Vegas Metropolitan Police said it was “aware of the event” but a victim had not come forward and filed a complaint. “We are looking into the matter and trying to identify the suspect,” the spokesman said.

MOMENT OF DUH: Brought to you by SingleStudentLoan.com
A college football coach in Michigan was suspended Monday for calling Adolf Hitler a “great leader” during an interview with the school’s student newspaper. Morris Berger, the offensive coordinator at Grand Valley State University, spoke at length about the Nazi leader when asked which three historical figures, except for famous athletes, he would want to have dinner with. “This is probably not going to get a good review, but I’m going to say Adolf Hitler,” Berger told the Grand Valley Lanthorn. “It was obviously very sad and he had bad motives, but the way he was able to lead was second to none. How he rallied a group and a following, I want to know how he did that. Bad intentions of course, but you can’t deny he wasn’t a great leader,” he added in the interview. The newspaper reported Monday that the school had suspended Berger after the story was published. “The comments made by Offensive Coordinator Morris Berger, as reported in The Lanthorn student newspaper, do not reflect the values of Grand Valley State University,” the school told Fox News in a statement.
