She threw the dog under the bus. An apparently inebriated Canadian woman drove into a ditch — and had a far-fetched excuse for the police. According to cops, the woman allegedly stated, “The dog was driving.” Royal Canadian Mounted Police found the 58-year-old motorist and her pooch on December 1st, after receiving a report that someone had driven into a ditch in Vancouver Island. “The woman told police that it was just her and her dog inside the vehicle at the time it was driven into the ditch – and that the dog was driving.” But cops sniffed that something about her claim was off — and suspected the woman had been drinking. She was barred from the road for ninety days after allegedly refusing to provide a breath sample. Her name wasn’t released. (https://bit.ly/2Wv5UNo)

SCOOP OF THE DAY: Brought to you by www.GiftCardChallenge.org

First date? New business meeting? New research shows you only have 27 seconds to make a good first impression. The research investigated the key contributors and timings to a positive first impression and found that smiling, being polite, smelling nice, being a good listener, and making eye contact are among the leading factors. Besides job interviews, there’s no better time to make a good first impression than on a first date, and the research shows the average person knows within 15 minutes into a date whether or not they want a second date.

Confirming what many couples already knew, a government study concluded it’s healthy to be married. Sure, the majority of husbands pack on some extra pounds. But overall, married people are sick less often and more active. They smoke and drink less and in general feel better than single, divorced, never married or even folks just living together. In the study, some 70.6 percent of husbands were overweight or obese compared with 65.1 percent of all men. For females, 48.6 percent of married women were overweight or obese, virtually the same as the 48.5 percent of women in general.

WEIRD NEWS: Brought to you by WeirdGiftOfTheDay.com

A 36-year-old Ocala woman spent a night in the Marion County Jail for allegedly battering a man after she caught him viewing pornography on his phone. A Marion County sheriff’s deputy responded to a disturbance report and met with the victim in his truck a few blocks away from the incident location. The victim said he got into a heated argument with Danielle Whitt over him making toast instead of rolls for breakfast. The victim said to avoid confrontation, he went into his bedroom and started watching a video of a half-naked woman on his phone. He said Whitt came into the bedroom, observed him watching the video and punched him in the chest out of anger. The victim said in order to defend himself, he grabbed Whitt in the back of the neck and pushed her away. He said Whitt continued her attack by punching him four or five more times in the forearm, causing injury. The deputy observed a dark-colored bruise on the victim’s forearm. The victim said Whitt has hit him several times before and he just wants her out of the residence. Whitt was charged with simple domestic battery. (https://bit.ly/2YwycZh)

Driver reported to court. #slowdown.” Incidents of speeding became more common as a result of the quieter roads around the U.K. during the lockdown. (https://bit.ly/2Xy1Aic)
