Dear John,

My wife and I put every penny we have into a bar & grill. We're $400,000 in debt and have our house on the line. Sadly we have some members of our team that just won't listen and my wife and I disagree about letting them go. Any advice?

Signed - I Need a Drink!

A Wisconsin man was arrested for allegedly shooting three kids after they threw several snowballs at his car last month. 24-year-old William Carson is accused of opening fire at a group of seven children who were chucking snowballs at passing vehicles in Milwaukee on January 4th. When one of the frozen snowballs hit Carson’s car, he turned around, got out and started shooting. One child was shot in the thigh, a second was hit in the arm, and another kid’s jacket was grazed by a bullet. Carson fled after the shooting and was caught by police Jan. 12 while driving under the influence. Cops recovered a gun from Carson’s car, which they determine is “highly probable” to be the same firearm used in the January 4th attack. Carson was hit with several charges, including first-degree reckless injury and use of a dangerous weapon.

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

There's a country where twins are most likely to be born. Benin, a country in central Africa, is notable for having the highest birth rate of twins in the world. While the world average is just 13 twins per 1,000 births, Benin more than doubles that rate, at nearly 30 twins per 1,000 births. There's no single factor that causes this, but genetics, diet, and even the mother's height are thought to play a role.

A hospital worker at Gulf Coast Hospital in Fort Myers was arrested after being accused of sucking an elderly patient's toes. The patient said they felt their right foot being touched around 11:00 p.m. on Monday. They assumed a nurse was checking for swelling, until they were touched again. Then, the patient felt it happening a third time — this time they felt something wet between their toes. When they looked up, they said they saw 23-year-old Frantz Beldorin on his knees with his head bent over their foot. After yanking their foot away from Beldorin, he returned to his seat in the corner of the room. As a “sitter,” he had been assigned to keep an eye on the patient's roommate who was a flight risk. Later, the patient said Beldorin poked his head around the curtain and asked if they were ok. That's when they called for assistance and told a nurse what had happened. The nurse called security and security called the police, after which Beldorin was arrested at the hospital. (https://bit.ly/3camCrS)
