Popular According to a survey of drinkers, the celebrity they would like to drive them home after they've had one-too-many would be Oprah. She's always on the top of any list. Failure As many as 70-thousand or more US businesses fail every year. Here's a list of some of the failed ventures: "Everything Under $85,000." "Eight Tracks Are US." "Don King's Supercuts." "Planet Hollywood In Amish Country." "Just Bolts." Needless Pro golfer John Daly has been fired by his swing coach Butch Harman. I didn't even realize that there was such job. Parenting A Florida mom is in trouble after being videotaped at a self-service car wash spraying her two-year-old daughter with a water hose. The woman says her daughter was throwing a tantrum and that she sprayed her to calm her down. She adds that she sprayed her at a low setting, but police believe the initial spray to the child was at high pressure. Good thing she didn't spray her daughter with the Carnauba hot wax. Tough A Canadian man wanted to propose to his girlfriend during a Caribbean cruise this week, but instead had to pop the question at a security screening station at the Prince George, British Columbia, airport.

The "Tee-Off with Tiger" contest offers participants the chance to win Woods as a caddy. I know I shouldn't pray to win this contest, but it's hard not too. Share In political news, Hillary Clinton had been hinting that she and Barack Obama might share the Democratic ticket with her in the No. 1 position. She feels Barack Obama deserves some sort of consolation prize when he wins the nomination. Cheating A new state ban on smoking in Minnesota restaurants and other nightspots contains an exception for performer in theatrical productions. So some bars are getting around the ban by printing up playbills, encouraging customers to come in costume, and pronouncing them as "actors." There are always someone trying to beat the system. Expense US average retail gas prices have reached a new high of almost $3.20 per gallon and will likely increase another 20 to 30 cents in the next month. Gasoline prices are rising sharply as refiners, who have kept prices down in order to compete for sales, becoming more willing to pass on their higher costs of crude oil. Where are those supposedly electric-powered cars we were promised years ago?  Quote this article on your site | Views: 387 | Print | E-mail
