10/9: Striking Out In Predictions, Paternity Tests
Before I even begin, the paternity test reference in today's entry title does NOT involve me (yet... 
).
• A few entries ago I made my insta-predictions for this year’s MLB playoffs. Why has Al kkkeiper reprinted his predictions only for the division series match-ups? You’ll see.
NL PLAYOFFS:St. Louis vs. San Diego … I’ll say the Padres will win in four.
Los Angeles vs. New York … Oh what the hell – Dodgers in five.
AL PLAYOFFS:
Oakland vs Minnesota … They (Oakland) never make it out of the first round, so I’ll go with Minnesota in five.
Detroit vs New York … The Tigers are going to be one of those “Boy we’re sure happy to be here” stories, so I’ll say New York sweeps the series.
You know, there’s a certain satisfaction with being so off target that you end up striking nearby spectators instead.
• While listening to RIGHT-WING RADIO today, there was a man-on-the-street type of deal during a top-of-the-hour newscast. A New Yorker was asked what he thought of North Korea’s alleged nuclear weapons test that took place this past weekend. And what was this genius’ comment? “It’s very disturbing. There should be treaties to stop this sort of thing.” AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. I think what pisses me off the most about idiots like this is that their vote counts just the same as mine. Then again, I'm sure clueless commies think the same about me and my voting power.
• I have no idea who this chick is, but I like her. Apparently she achieved fame because she's hot and her boyfriend/husband (or whatever the hell he was) Jude Law was banging their ugly nanny or something. Nevertheless, I’m now her newest fan.
So, Sienna Miller doesn't like it here in Pittsburgh?
In town for the filming of "The Mysteries of Pittsburgh," the actress -- who claims she has led a relatively sheltered life (aside from dating Jude Law) -- tells Rolling Stone magazine in an article that will hit newsstands today that she's stuck not in "Blitzburgh," but rather in some place that sounds an awful lot like that, starting with an "S…”
• While looking for the above article, I stumbled across this one that fired me up. Sure the kid’s not yours, but you still gotta pay. And who says that red diaper doper baby judges don’t have too much power?
Dr. Mark Hudson always wondered why his son didn't look like him.
"My wife and I were both in (medical) residency at the time, and we used birth control religiously," said Hudson, 44, now divorced and remarried. "I actually asked her, at the time, if this was my child. She said, 'Of course.' Most people trust their spouse."
A genetic test last year confirmed his doubts.
Hudson, an anesthesiologist from Finleyville, Washington County, said a DNA test he commissioned showed another man had fathered the 12-year-old boy. Hudson was miffed when a judge recently ordered him to continue paying $2,800 a month in child support for two children, even though he fathered just one of them.
• You know it’s Monopoly time at McDonalds. How? Because rednecks from nearby counties and their out-of-state friends are thinking up ways to win the grand prize without having to gain 100 lbs from eating all those greasy burgers and sugar-laden soft drinks.
Two prize hungry suspects are accused of burglary, after McDonald's' workers busted them before they could run.
Indiana Borough, Indiana County police busted 2 men they say tried to steal a number of plastic cups from the Wayne Avenue McDonald's. Apparently the men were not thirsty, rather interested in the "Monopoly Game" pieces attached to the cups.
According to investigators, while one acted as a look out, the other hopped the counter to snag what they hoped to be plastic gold. The plan worked once early Sunday morning, but they went to the well one too many times.
Store employees caught them in the act, put down their brown food trays and then pinned one suspect to the ground until police arrived.
Robert George Kern, III of Long Green, Maryland faces theft, underage drinking and other charges. The suspected lookout, David C. Bivens of Indiana, Pennsylvania faces a criminal conspiracy count and much more.
• And now it’s time for the Dr. Laura call of the day (or whenever I feel like doing this). This lady has a sister who wants the two of them to go into business together. The caller's sister wants to start up an ice cream parlor business, but the caller has some reservations about doing so. Why? Because the sister has been caught in the past stealing from a church she used to work at. How much money did she swipe? $116,000 during a two-year period. What did the sister use the money for? Gambling.
