Did you know there’s an online service that will print out FAKE receipts for you? What would you USE a fake receipt for? How about:
Expense reports for work
Covering up an “out of town” lie
Leaving a fake ATM receipt laying around for a money-hungry girl to see?
It’s REAL! (well actually the site is real, the receipts are NOT)
here’s the link: www.salesreceiptstore.com
Arcade Fire have teamed up with the cool dudes at Google to create an interactive video whatnot thing for their latest single ‘We Used To Wait’. Basically, you plonk your postcode into a box and the video then uses Google Street Map to personalise what appears before you in various windows by showing pictures of things near where you live.
It’s kinda cool, and I didn’t even watch it in Google’s Chrome browser, as recommended. Take that, Google! It definitely worked in Safari, and Firefox just about managed to hold it all together, as well. As a quick demonstration of the potential of HTML5 coding, it’s quite impressive. As a demonstration of how good Arcade Fire’s new songs are, though, not so much.

“I’ll Make Love to You, On a Carnival Cruise”
Michelle Fonville was paying her bill at Natural Nails in DeKalb County, Georgia (near Atlanta), when she noticed an extra charge. The nail salon owner, Kim Tran, told her it was because she’s overweight and she was charging extra in case Fonville caused damage to the salon’s chairs she’d been sitting on.
Even if Fonville was too overweight for the salon chairs, you can’t just tack an extra charge on someone’s bill arbitrarily. (Otherwise we’d all be getting weird charges tacked onto our bills.) This incident sounds more like a case of “we’re charging you more to dissuade people like you not from coming back” to me.

News Video is at the Bottom of the Story
I’m not a huge fan of golf, and you might not be either. But no matter what, you will DEFINITELY get a kick out of this video, and I think you’ll appreciate how HARD this is to do!
p.s. would I even PUT this video up here if there wasn’t a GREAT ending?
The producers of the upcoming horror flick “The Last Exorcism” thought up a pretty creative way to advertise their new film. They put a fake video up on Chat Roulette that LOOKS like a girl about to take her clothes off. But alas, things aren’t always what they seem….
WATCH AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION. THIS IS SCARY AND HAS FOUL LANGUAGE. NOT EXACTLY SAFE FOR WORK.
Police in New York say the man who robbed a Chase bank branch was armed with a pistol and dressed as “Star Wars” villain Darth Vader. Suffolk County police Detective Sgt. William Lamb said the robber walked into the Setauket branch Thursday dressed in Darth Vader’s signature mask and cape.
Lamb said the robber got into a “shoving match” with a customer who initially thought the costumed man was joking. “The customer thought it might have been a joke, and not a serious attempt at a robbery,” Lamb said. Police said the intruder pulled out a gun and ordered the man to the floor. Lamb said investigators were trying to determine how much money the holdup man was able to shove into a bag before fleeing.
Remember the 11-year-old Florida girl who became a YouTube star after a video of her dad yelling at her online-haters went viral? Well, she is now under police protection because of death threats. In the video “You dun goofed up,” which has been viewed more than 1.7 million times, Jessi Slaughter cried while her father threatened her online enemies with “backtracing” and “cyber police.”
As the video went viral (you can see one of the many copies circulating online in the link below), so did Slaughter’s real name, address and phone number, which were distributed via 4chan.org and Tumblr. The ensuing barrage of threats and prank phone calls led the local sheriff to launch a criminal investigation of the video and move Jessi to a safe house. She’s now back home but under police protection – and a court order that bans her from using the Internet.
