Rescued by Miranda

There's a new definition for "lucky dog."  Miranda Lambert found a puppy abandoned in the middle of a highway.  It was left with it's bed and bowl--nothing else.  Miranda has taken the pooch home and is looking for a new home.  Or maybe he's found a new home...she named him Pistol Andy.  lucky dog

Jail time for laughing?

A New York man was issued two sitations for laughing too loudly.  He was in his own home but neighbors say that he could be heard across the driveway.  Robert Schiavelli said that he never knew laughing could get him in trouble with the law.  He also claims that because he's disabled, his neighbors mock him and laughter is his way of coping.  in trouble for laughing

Kellie Pickler's drummer injured in crash

Kellie Pickler's drummer was traveling on I-65 South Saturday when he was rear-ended by a semi.  He's in serious condition.  It's thought that the driver of the semi was too interested in a wreck that had just happened on the other side of the Interstate Highway.  Six people died in that crash--they were from Wisconsin returning from a trip to Disney World.  crashes

Clever rescue

A helicopter pilot uses a clever move to save a deer stranded on the ice.  It was too thin for rescuers to go to the deer so the pilot flew close to the ice and used the wind from the blades to slide the deer to shore.  The deer and it's fawn had been walking on the ice when it got too slippery; the fawn managed to make it to safety but it's mother wasn't able to do the same.  Thanks to the pilot for making a happy ending happen.  watch video

no more flyovers

Because of budget cuts, there will be no more flyovers for sporting events.  I get goosebumps every time it happens at a NASCAR race.  I will miss it.  flyovers stop
