This reminds me of my freshman chemistry course at Illinois. One day, a student was heckling the T.A. while the T.A. was writing on the blackboard. The T.A., a young guy in his first year of grad school, responded by throwing a piece of chalk at the heckler. That didn't turn out very well because the heckler ducked and the chalk hit the woman sitting behind him. It hit her in the face and evidently with some force because she cried out in pain. That was pretty much the end of class for that day.

It was every businessperson's nightmare.

Arriving at Harv's Metro Car Wash in midtown Wednesday afternoon were two dark-suited IRS agents demanding payment of delinquent taxes. "They were deadly serious, very aggressive, very condescending," says Harv's owner, Aaron Zeff.

The really odd part of this: The letter that was hand-delivered to Zeff's on-site manager showed the amount of money owed to the feds was ... 4 cents.

Inexplicably, penalties and taxes accruing on the debt – stemming from the 2006 tax year – were listed as $202.31, leaving Harv's with an obligation of $202.35.

The Strong Buzz recently reported that Lori Mason, wife of chef Daniel Angerer and his partner in Klee Brasserie, was turned away from the International Restaurant and Food Services Show when a security guard informed her that no one under 18 could be admitted (Mason and Angerer took their 8-week-old daughter). The results of Mason's letter to the New York State Restaurant Association (which sponsored the event) remain to be seen, but one thing's for sure — the NYSRA won't be getting a taste of her breast-milk cheese. That's right, chef Angerer tells us he's making cheese from mother's milk.

Looking to start band... with unique twist (Las Vegas)
Date: 2010-03-12, 9:04AM PST

Hi everyone, my name is Tony. I've been a professional guitar player for 20 years in bands all across the country. I settled down in Las Vegas last year and am looking to start a new band with a unique twist. [...] Here's the twist: We would play covers of the bands I mentioned but when it's time for the guitar solo, i will drop my pants. I have an urethral implant that I can set up to emit a small flame of natural gas and will light it on fire.

Here's a screen cap, in case the ad disappears.

Schuylkill County Pennsylvania has a warped sense of humor

People in Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania have a warped sense of humor. It must be something in the coal-infused water.

This is the pull off at SR 61 and Adamsdale Rd. A deer was hit there.

The couch was dumped there previously.

Day two the deer was on the couch.

Day three the end table and lamp showed up.

Day four the TV and TV stand showed up.
