Friends” actress Lisa Kudrow was apparently disturbed by her son’s reaction to her role in the hit sitcom, saying this week that it felt “demeaning.” During an interview with Seth Meyers on his show, Kudrow said her 24-year-old son, Julian Murray Stern, was surprised by the humor in Friends. Kudrow said: “He was impressed. He goes, ‘It’s actually really funny”. But he seemed to be more bowled over by other members of the cast. Kudrow went on to describe her son’s reaction, quoting him as saying: “‘The guys are so funny.’ And he’s like, ‘No, I mean, you’re funny, too.’ And never in my life have I wanted to tell my own kid, like, ‘F you!’” Kudrow said that she didn’t actually say the word — but she did think it.

The Newport Folk Festival, known for creating electrifying musical moments — the most famous being Bob Dylan’s decision to plug in his guitar in 1965 — this weekend has a small outer stage that is being powered in part by festival-goers on stationary bicycles. The Bike Stage is the brainchild of the band Illiterate Light, an environmentally conscious indie rock duo from Virginia, who has partnered with a company called Rock the Bike to create a pedal-powered sound system, which they have already been using at small club shows. Frontman Jeff Gorman said the “Bike Stage” at the event in Rhode Island is the first time the system has been tried at a festival. About a dozen artists are scheduled to perform mostly acoustic sets on the stage. About 1,300 of the festival’s 10,000 fans rode bicycles to Newport on Friday. Gorman said when he saw that sea of bikes during the band’s appearance in Newport in 2019, he and partner Jake Cochran approached festival director Jay Sweet about setting up the stage. https://apnews.com/article/entertainment-music-rhode-island-5cb46cb3685411b11f23bec1146b7db4

When a naked man in southwestern Florida recently raised a ruckus outside his house and threatened a deputy with a kitchen knife, the SWAT team swooped in and apprehended him. Soon afterward, Lee County Sheriff Carmine Marceno stood on the man’s driveway in combat gear for a news conference while the suspect went to the jailhouse that the sheriff likes to call the “Marceno Motel.” “He’s an oxygen-stealer and a scumbag, and I’m glad he’s outta here,” Marceno told reporters. “I’m proud to say that in this county, if you present deadly physical force ... we meet you with deadly force every time, and we win. It’s pretty clean, pretty quick.” The Sunshine State has become internationally notorious for the oddball miscreants who populate its police blotters and local news reports — known collectively as Florida Man. There are murders and mayhem, like anyplace else, and then there are the only-in-Florida incidents like the man charged with assault with a deadly weapon for throwing an alligator through a Wendy’s drive-thru window in Palm Beach County in 2015. https://apnews.com/article/police-florida-fort-lauderdale-ed03521826c0f70b1d455b4e7fc3e6cb

A Knoxville woman was arrested after she allegedly stole an electric wheelchair from the Kroger located at 5201 Broadway Avenue. Officials with the Knoxville Police Department said that officers found Victoria Elander, 53, traveling down the street near the Citgo gas station located at 4801 Broadway Avenue. Officers responded to the area because Elander was causing traffic issues in the wheelchair by riding on the street instead of the sidewalk. Elander refused to ride on the sidewalk when asked, the release said. When officers asked where she got the wheelchair, she reportedly told them she stole it from Kroger. Elander told officers that she took the wheelchair because she was having trouble picking up her medicine, and also said she had “various mental and physical conditions,” according to the release. Elander was taken into custody and management at Kroger was made aware of the stolen cart, which they later confirmed to police was from the store. https://www.wvlt.tv/app/2021/09/21/knoxville-woman-steals-electric-wheelchair-grocery-store-police-say/

In the course of her life journey, the average woman will embark upon twice as many diets as sexual relationships, so says a new survey sponsored by (who else?) a diet supplement company and published in the Daily Mail. On average, the survey participants attempted sixteen diets in their lives and had eight sexual partners. We can only assume that the typical human female is all about that on-again, off-again thing with Atkins, an occasional Jenny Craig fling, going steady with Weight Watchers, and trying out the Zone before finally settling down with Mediterranean. And who could forget that hot summer with Paleo? Memories to keep you warm. https://www.thecut.com/2014/01/women-try-more-diets-than-sex-partners.html

Bioengineers at the University of Texas, Austin have engineered a new type of mattress that “tricks” the body into falling asleep faster. Body temperature influences how awake or sleepy we feel at any given moment. For instance, it’s healthier to sleep in the evening as body temperature declines. So, the research team developed an innovative mattress and pillow system that uses both heating and cooling to send a message to the body that it’s time to sleep. They say the new mattress successfully triggers sleepiness, shortening the time it takes to fall asleep, and improves overall sleep quality.

Kylie Jenner came under fire last week for posting about her private jet. She shared a pic of herself and boyfriend Travis Scott hugging between 2 planes, with the caption: “You wanna take mine or yours?” That led critics to dig deeper into Jenner’s flight habits, and now many are condemning her along with other wealthy travelers. Her private jet, named “Kylie Air” is decked out with luxuries and amenities, and according to a report, planes like these create 5-14 times more pollution than commercial planes. In the current economic climate, many followers thought it was tasteless for Jenner to brag about her jet. And with the environmental crisis worsening, many also thought it was horrifying to see her using a plane for her own convenience. And the Twitter account Celeb Jets looked into her flight history, and found that many of her flights are around 15 minutes long, and one recent flight was just 3 minutes long, covering a distance that would have taken 40 minutes by car.

Attorney wins Ernest Hemingway contest in Key West tradition.

Some came in wool fisherman’s sweaters, and other contestants had sportsmen’s attire. But it was the cream-colored sweater of attorney Jon Auvil that caught the eye of judges who awarded him the title for most resembling author and former Key West resident Ernest Hemingway. Auvil triumphed Saturday night over 124 other contestants for the title in the annual Hemingway Look-Alike Contest at Sloppy Joe’s Bar, the Key West establishment where the author was a regular patron during his decade-long residence on the island in the 1930s. The look-a-like contest is a highlight of Key West’s annual Hemingway Days celebration, which ended Sunday. Auvil said he shares Hemingway’s passion for fishing, has written some fiction and would like to do more writing. “Every man wants to write like Hemingway,” said Auvil, who lives in Dade City, Florida, northeast of Tampa. While living in Key West, Hemingway wrote classics, including “For Whom the Bell Tolls” and “To Have and Have Not.”

THIS WEEK'S DEAR JOHN LETTER!

Dear John,

We have a new neighbor. I've tried to welcome them to the neighborhood, but they didn't answer the door. I know they saw me, but just walked back away from the door. I thought that was odd. I came back with a note to leave on their door. It was a welcome to the neighborhood note. I put my number and told then to call if there was anything we could help with. Since then I've waved at them a few times, but they seem very non-interested in connecting with the neighbors. I'm from a small town in the Midwest. I'm not sure where this couple is from. The moving truck dropped everything off and their cars are new with dealer plates, but I'm wondering if maybe they're from a bigger city or something. My husband told me to leave them alone. I just feel like it's a good idea to know who is right next door in case of an emergency or something. Should I proceed with any further contact do you think? Should I leave them alone like my husband says?

Signed – New Neighbor

Drink up to cool down. Generally speaking, the consumption of alcohol on a hot day isn’t recommended by doctors, but in the midst of an international heat wave, one physician on Twitter is claiming that beer can help with hydration. But we’re not talking about an all-afternoon bender while sitting on a lawn chair under the blazing sun. Dr. Ellie Mackin Roberts sparked a now-viral debate when she recently tweeted 10 steps to help beat the heat. Tip #9 is: “If you are dehydrated (and an adult, and able to do so) drink a half a pint of beer (inc. alcohol free!) then move straight onto water (or a sports drink or cordial if you don’t like water).” Followers quickly responded, questioning how beer could ever be helpful in trying to avoid dehydration. From there, Dr. Stuart Galloway, of the University of Stirling backed Roberts up, explaining that beer contains electrolytes, sugar and salt, which helps the body retain fluid, rather than it going straight through. He says if a small amount of beer is consumed, it can be part of a plan to stay hydrated. He hastens to point out that more than one or 2 servings will lead to dehydration. So, make sure you remember to switch to water or sports drinks…and also stay away from hot coffee and tea. LINK: https://tinyurl.com/yms823rc

We’ve got some new details on “Bridgerton” season 3 – as well as word on some new cast members. The Netflix show has added Daniel Francis (“Stay Close”), Sam Phillips (“The Crown”), and James Phoon (“Wreck”) to its Season 3 cast as filming begins in London. Francis plays ‘Marcus Anderson’, a charismatic presence who lights up any room he enters. Phillips plays ‘Lord Debling’, a genial lord with unusual interests, and Phoon plays ‘Harry Dankworth’; what he lacks in wit and intelligence, he more than makes up for with serious good looks. Season 3 finds Penelope as she’s finally given up her crush on Colin. Now, she’s focusing on finding a husband who will respect her independence so she can continue her double life as ‘Lady Whistledown’. Meanwhile, Colin is back from his summer travels with a new look and major swagger, but is sad to learn that Penelope, is giving him the cold shoulder. Eager to win back her friendship, he decides to help Penelope attract the perfect husband. LINK: https://youtu.be/V5gfqZkC2DA

As you know, the lengths some go to in showing their dedication to fandom are impressive, and sometimes very expensive. We’re thinking that explains this: Marvel revealed at Comic-Con that they’ve created a set of real-life Infinity Stones. While it won’t quite cost you the life of someone you love to get your hands on the stones, like it does in the MCU, it’ll still be expensive – to the tune of a combined value of more than $25 million (!) Marvel has partnered with Eastern Continental Gems to launch the special collection of gemstones, which are housed in a custom-made Infinity Gauntlet like the one ‘Thanos’ wears in the movies. The most valuable pieces of superhero merchandise ever include a Colombian emerald ‘untouched by human hands’, a Madagascan sapphire, and a ruby from Mozambique, plus an amethyst, a cushion shaped spessartite and a yellow diamond. For those of us with more limited financial means, Marvel also confirmed that a limited-edition version of the Reality Stones will be issued in September, for price more in line with what us mere mortals can afford.

STUPID THINGS WE DO TO LOOK COOL:

Talking on speakerphone in public: Why have a private conversation that invades everyone else’s space?

Taking pics of cash: Rather than looking cool, this gives the impression of trying too hard.

Boasting about not being on social media: Just like despising popular trends, there’s not much point in bragging about not being on social media. It doesn’t make you “better” than anyone else.

Insisting on having the last word: Sure, it gives you a momentarily exhilarating feeling, but it never, but it doesn’t mean you’ve satisfactorily resolved the conflict.

Using abusive swear words and insults: Insults directed at a person’s gender, orientation, physical or mental ability, or skin color not only decreases your cool factor, it actually makes you appear intolerant.

Making fun of others’ hobbies or interests: Laughing at someone else about what they enjoy because it’s perceived as cheesy says more about the person poking fun than it does about the person showing an interest in something.

Using your zodiac sign as an excuse: We’ve all heard someone do it: “Sorry, I couldn’t help myself. I’m a stubborn Taurus”. Don’t use your zodiac sign as an excuse to continue bad behavior.

Tennessee man recovers lost million dollar lottery ticket in a parking lot (2021)

A Tennessee man was able to retrieve his million dollar winning lottery ticketNick Slatten purchased a Tennessee Cash lottery ticket at the Village Market in Sparta on Thursday, March 11, ahead of that night’s drawing. After checking the winning numbers the following morning, he realized the ticket was worth $1,178,746. “I was stunned. I couldn’t believe it,” Slatten said. “I can’t express it. It was something else.” Slatten went about his day running errands after sharing the good news with his fiancée. Shortly after taking his brother to an O’Reilly Auto Parts Store, he realized something was very wrong. It was about an hour later, Slatten said, when he realized he didn’t have the ticket anymore. I couldn’t find it anywhere,” he said. Slatten retraced his steps and pulled into the O’Reilly’s parking lot where he saw it lying on the ground, right next to the driver’s side door of another vehicle. It’s a million dollar ticket, and someone stepped right over it,” Slatten said. The Tennessee Lottery reminds players that tickets are bearer instruments, like cash. If a player loses his ticket, anyone can claim it if it is unsigned. The lottery recommends players to sign their ticket immediately after purchase to identify it as theirs and to help prevent someone else from cashing it, in the event that it is lost or stolen. Slatten’s ticket is one of five tickets worth $1 million or more sold in Tennessee this month and the 310th ticket sold worth $1 million or more since the Lottery began on Jan. 20, 2004. Slatten and his fiancée will continue working and have plans to buy a house of their own and better vehicles as well as investing. Mainly, their plan is to live life with “not a whole lot of worries,” he said.

The new limited series was revealed at The Walking Dead’s San Diego Comic-Con panel, and looks to “continue the journey and love story” of Rick Grimes and Michonne. AMC says the series will “begin with 6 episodes in 2023,” leaving the door open for it to be more than a mini-series. A seriously injured Rick Grimes was last seen in Season 9 of The Walking Dead, being flown away by a helicopter. Michonne left the show a season later after discovering Rick may still be alive. It was also revealed that this series will replace the planned Rick Grimes movie.

As more and more electric, automated and connected vehicles hit the roads, a new report says drivers should be aware of the many cybersecurity risks could emerge. The new report by Deloitte Canada calls modern vehicles “super-computers on wheels”, containing hundred of parts, which naturally contain “systematic vulnerabilities, or cybersecurity gaps that widen the likelihood of a device being compromised.” What kind of risks are we talking about? Deloitte’s report mentions GPS tracking and stalking, targeted malware, and control of vehicle acceleration and braking. It also identifies an incident last year when 25 automated vehicles owned by a transportation company were hacked and remotely accessed by a teenaged hacker, who proceeded to determine each vehicle’s exact location, whether it was occupied by a driver, and, most significantly, ran commands on it remotely. Deliotte says it is the responsibility of all manufacturers to better understand each individual part that makes up a vehicle, and collectively evaluate the risk each part brings forward.

On the side of Highway 101 was a very strange sight, which prompted the San Luis Obispo Police Department to post on its Facebook page: “Yep, it’s a coffin. Yep, it was on Santa Rosa near Walnut yesterday and yep, it’s never been occupied.” So why was there an empty casket on a busy freeway? Apparently, it had been found abandoned outside a building, and a member of the transient population decided to push it to a swap meet to sell it. She was taking a break when police found the coffin on the side of the road. It eventually wound up at its destination. No word on whether it was sold.

GOOD NEWS: Brought to you by RadioTravelGroup.com

A good Samaritan made sure that a stranded bride made it to the church on time, in an adventure fit for the big screen. As detailed on TikTok by Marksteen Adamson, who saved Anastasia Medvedskaya’s big day, he was driving through London when he spotted her in a white gown, flower crown and veil looking “confused and flustered” in a crosswalk. The bride flagged him down to ask for a ride to the church, where her groom and guests were waiting. She explained that she had been trying to hail an Uber, but 3 different drivers had canceled on her at the last minute, leaving her 45 minutes late to her own wedding. Adamson told the bride and 2 people in her wedding party to “jump in,” and they all headed to the chapel. The video ends with Adamson delivering the bride safely to the church, where she is met by the vicar. The TikTok has, of course, gone viral. LINK: https://tinyurl.com/2xujux6k
