I'm so glad I don't have white person dreadlocks. Mostly because I'd have to look in the mirror and be like, "Oh yeah, I'm that guy..."

Let’s get to the news… (Play News Music – Clip 03)
JOHNSTOWN, Pa. – A Pennsylvania man is jailed on charges of reckless endangerment and resisting arrest after police say he passed out drunk while cooking, causing a small fire that forced the evacuation of his public housing apartment building.
25-year-old Avery McCall was arrested about 3 a.m. Tuesday at his apartment in the Solomon Homes public housing complex in Johnstown, about 60 miles east of Pittsburgh.
Reports say that firefighters had to use a pass key to enter the smoky apartment, where they found McCall blacked out on the couch as food burned on his stove.
Fortunately, no one was hurt in the fire. But remember, “Friends don’t let friends Drink and Fry.”
VICTORVILLE, Calif. – A motorcyclist who plowed into a minivan landed unscathed in the back seat, and the driver didn't realize it until he turned into his nearby driveway, authorities said.
"We're calling this one a non-injury collision with a twist," Karen Hunt, spokeswoman for the San Bernardino Police.
The van was slowing to make a left turn when the motorcycle rear-ended it Thursday.
Callers reporting the accident told authorities: "We don't know where the rider is," and there was concern he might have slid under the van, Hunt said.
"That's when it started to sound ominous," she said.
In reality, the rider had flown through the van's back window and landed in the backseat. The van driver continued to his home less than a half-block away, where he called out to his wife that he'd been rear-ended and needed to return to the accident scene.
As he turned around to back out of the driveway, he saw the dazed biker.
The rider's helmet absorbed most of the impact, and he only asked for an ice pack for his hand. He did not receive further medical treatment.
NEW YORK – A fugitive from upstate New York who taunted police on his Facebook page by telling them, “catch me if you can. I'm in Brooklyn” has been arrested…in Brooklyn.
U.S. marshals and NYPD detectives tracked Victor Burgos down to an apartment in Brooklyn's Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood Monday night, sitting at his computer with his Facebook page open.
The 29-year-old suspect was wanted by Utica police on multiple arrest warrants for domestic violence and harassment of his former girlfriend.
He allegedly issued the Facebook challenge after his mug shot appeared on the Utica Police Department's 10 most wanted list.
Utica Sgt. Steve Hauck tells the News: "He told us via Facebook to come and get him, so we did."
LOS ANGELES (Reuters Life!) – A 63-year-old California man with a hernia had finally had enough. After waiting weeks for a surgery due to backlogs at the hospital, he finally plunged a butter knife into his abdomen to try to fix the problem himself.
Police found the man lying naked on the porch of his apartment in the Los Angeles suburb of Glendale in California Sunday night after his wife called to report his attempt at surgery.
"He actually impaled himself with the butter knife. He told his wife he was frustrated with this hernia, and he didn't want to wait any longer for the medical procedure." Said a police spokesman.
When the police arrived, the officers watched as the man, after pulling the knife out of his abdomen, put a lit cigarette into the wound.
"I don't know if it was an attempt to cauterize or anything," said a police spokesman.
Police did not identify the man, but Lorenz said he committed no crime and was not under the influence of drugs or alcohol. He was taken to Los Angeles County-USC Medical Center, where he was put on a 72-hour psychiatric hold, police said.
Now the best part: After all this, The hospital went ahead and performed the surgery to fix his hernia without making him wait any further.

Football Roundup:
Kyle Orton – AWKWARD in Denver. Why is everyone so keen on Kyle?
Willis McGahee – Memo to the Broncos: Warm Bowl of meh’s shouldn’t cost 7.5 Million for 3 years
Hasta Luego – Jabar Gaffney – It was good knowing you. Traded for Defensive End Jeromy Jarmon.
Eagles: Nnamdi Asomugha – Eagles from out of nowhere, now they have him AND Rodgers Cromartie. Asante Samuel is now their nickel back!!! I even like the Vince Young pickup as the backup will have a similar style to the starter in Philly.
Cardinals: Kevin Kolb to the Cardinals - Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie and a 2nd round pick. When did Kolb become worth that??
Patriots: Albert Haynesworth and Chad Ochocinco (Patriots have a TE named Aaron Hernandez who wears 85. How great would it be if he didn’t give it to Chad?)
Vikings: Donovan McNabb – Vikings love old washed up quarterbacks
Dolphins: Reggie Bush to Miami – Following the path of Ricky Williams almost too closely
Jets: Resigning Santonio Holmes was a good move, but not getting Asomugha after it had been the feeling all week that they were going to get him has to be disappointing for Jet fans.
.
Titans: Matt Hasselbeck to the Titans – Seems like a disaster waiting to happen. Although, when you have a chance to lock down a 35 year old quarterback who isn’t familiar with your system, I guess you have to do it.
Chiefs: Steve Breaston to the Chiefs – Feels like he’s going to disappoint KC fans.
Seahawks: Are they trying to get revenge on the Vikings for taking Steve Hutchinson away from them a few years ago? – Tavaris Jackson and Sidney Rice
Saints: Sneaky pickup in getting Darren Sproles to replace Reggie Bush.
Panthers: Cam Newton signs in Carolina – Between this disappointment of a 1st overall pick AND the Panthers resigning the core of their 2-14 team, it’s got to be hard to be a Panthers fan right now. Although, I like them trading for Greg Olsen, and the players they resigned have some value… DE Charles Johnson, RB DeAngelo Williams, LB James Anderson, LB Jon Beason and getting Steve Smith to return. Not all is lost, even if it’s a little weird that mostly they are signing their own.
Bengals: Back to sucking. So bad Carson Palmer retired so he didn’t have to play with them, and they didn’t resign Jonathan Joseph.
Giants: Matt Dodge is out with the Giants – Steve Weatherford signs in New York. Punter news!!!!
