Lottery winner gets attacked

A few months ago a 55 year old woman was about to go into the Virginia Lottery office to cash winning lottery tickets worth $10,000 when she was attacked.

The two men who attacked her are now behind bars. Blake Jordan and Kenneth Marshall, both 22, apparently attacked the woman with a hammer. They’ve been charged with maiming, attempted robbery and conspiracy to commit robbery.

One of the men is apparently a nephew of the 55 year old woman. Isn’t that cold blooded?

Keary Fox, 56, a lottery worker, first hear the woman scream at 1:10 pm so he ran outside and saw Jordan on top of the woman. He put Jordan in a headlock while a customer took the hammer out of his hand. The pair held him until police arrived. Marshall was arrested later in the day.

The woman suffered lacerations to the back of the head. Lucky for her that lottery worker came by when he did or she might have had worse injuries or perhaps even have been murdered.

Why do they start so young?

All dogs go to heaven. Especially this one, very soon. (from CollegeHumor)

Aw, what a cute little puppy. Looks like he’s taken up a bad habit though doesn’t it?

Now if that were my Lab she’d probably be trying to eat the cigarette and that might be even worse than smoking it!

Reindeer Skiing should be a Canadian sport

Wordless Wednesday

Now that's the way to ski

Isn’t this an amazing photo?

I could totally get into this sport. Imagine skiing behind a reindeer? Or rather, it kind of looks like these guys are being towed. Looks like a combination of dog sledding - maybe the Iditarod, and skiing but with deer rather than dogs.

I don’t know where this photo originated, however I’m picturing this as the ultimate Canadian sport. Yes … I’m a Canuck.

Excuse me for a moment while I upgrade this site to the latest version of Wordpress. The site will probably be down for 10 minutes or so.

Thanks!

Update complete - hopefully the site is back to normal for everyone. If you encounter any problems please let me know.
