It’s alright, though. The President always keeps a second Timex in his pocket “in case my first runs out of ticks”. Whatever that means.
Man in Wheelchair Stuck in Grill of Tractor Trailer, Takes a 50 MPH Ride
Friday, June 8th, 2007
Benjamin Carpenter, 21, was crossing a Michigan highway in his wheelchair when he became stuck in a semitrailer’s grille and pushed for miles before the unknowing driver was pulled over, police said on Thursday.
Carpenter escaped unharmed, saying, “It was quite a ride,” police said.
Carpenter was attempting to cross on Wednesday when the light turned green and his wheelchair became hooked onto the front grille of the truck, which reached 50 mph during the 4-mile trip down Red Arrow Highway, Michigan State Police Trooper Michael Sinke said witnesses reported.
Carpenter was taken to a hospital as a precaution. He had been secured to his wheelchair by a seat belt.
Witnesses reported that the light turned green, so the truck took off, never seeing the wheelchair in front of him or the fact that it had attached to his front grill. When officers stopped the truck at a private business, Carpenter was in a calm state.
“The man spilled his soda pop, but he wasn’t upset,” said Sgt. Kathy Morton of the Michigan State Police.
Sinke said when he arrived at the scene, the man told him “‘Yeah, I’m fine. I just went for a little ride.’”
“He was surprisingly normal,” Sinke said.
About 4 p.m. Wednesday, a caller told police dispatchers, “You are not going to believe this: There is a semi truck pushing a guy in a wheelchair on Red Arrow Highway,” state police said in a release.
Authorities initially wondered whether the report was a prank call until others called with similar reports.
When the truck finally was stopped, the driver didn’t believe officers until he stepped from his cab and saw for himself.
“When he saw us, he was like, ‘What’s going on?”‘ Morton said.
“The truck driver had no idea,” Sinke said. “[He] was in a state of shock.”
Paw Paw Police Department Office Manager Susan Millek said their department got the initial call around 3:30 p.m. and Sgt. Kirk Goodrich and officer Tim McMeekan responded to the call. McMeekan said the incident was labeled a car pedestrian accident and he was prepared for a scene much worse than what he found.
“We were obviously relieved and shocked to see what happened,” McMeekan said.
He said the family was notified within a few minutes and because the man is an adult, the department called to have someone pick him up.
Officers who responded to the scene said the fact that the man was unharmed made this story that much more unbelievable.
“Just the way he was uninjured. It’s just unbelievable,” Sinke said. “Obviously someone was looking over him yesterday. I could go another hundred years in law enforcement and never see that again.”
Paris Going Back to Jail?!?!
Thursday, June 7th, 2007LA City Attorney Rocky Delgadillo has filed a motion for a hearing before Judge Michael Sauer to argue that LA Sheriff’s Department let her go before her sentence was up, something Judge Sauer said would not happen.
Paris Hilton was released this morning after serving three of her 23-day sentence because of an undisclosed “medical condition” (herpes and chlamydia) which LA City Sheriff’s Department says it cannot divulge.
Outrage has been spreading across LA and the country after news hit early this morning that Paris Hilton’s sentence was reduced to a house arrest in which she would serve her original 45 days, with five days already served.

Powdered Booze Invented by Dutch Students
Wednesday, June 6th, 2007AMSTERDAM, Netherlands (Reuters) — Dutch students have invented powdered alcohol which they say can be sold legally to minors.
The latest innovation in inebriation, called Booz2Go, is available in 20-gram packets that cost €1-1.5 ($1.35-$2).
Top it up with water and you have a bubbly, lime-colored and -flavored drink with just 3 percent alcohol content.
“We are aiming for the youth market. They are really more into it because you can compare it with Bacardi-mixed drinks,” 20-year-old Harm van Elderen told Reuters.
Van Elderen and four classmates at Helicon Vocational Institute, about an hour’s drive from Amsterdam, came up with the idea as part of their final-year project.
“Because the alcohol is not in liquid form, we can sell it to people below 16,” said project member Martyn van Nierop.
The legal age for drinking alcohol and smoking is 16 in the Netherlands.
The students said companies interested in making the product commercially could avoid taxes because the alcohol was in powder form. A number of companies are interested, they said.

iPhone to be Released June 29th - New Commercials
Sunday, June 3rd, 2007Yes, it will be an expensive phone, but I paid $250 for the very first SideKick when it came out. And then it made me feel like Linsay Lohan.
A while later I paid $300 or $400 for my Treo, and then $400 for my Blackberry. And those phones made me feel like an old man.
If you took a Treo, mixed it with a Blackberry, then mixed that with Koolaid, Michael Jordan, beer, ice cream cake, and a teeny bit of vintage 1957 Hugh Hefner sperm, I’m still not sure it would be as cool as the iPhone.
