Philly gas station sells 76-cent fuel in honor of 76ers

Wow they must REALLY love basketball! For the first time in 3 years, The Philadelphia 76ers are in the playoffs, so why not sell your gas for $3.00 less than its worth? Makes sense to me! I’m sure the residents of the Philadelphia neighborhood didn’t refuse the deal even if they couldn’t care less about a stupid game. In fact hundreds of drivers began lining up at 6:30 am! Some even catching a cat nap in their cars as they waited.
Oh, but there was a catch ofcourse, the offer only lasted for exactly 76 minutes(I think they are a little obsessed with this team) starting at noon yesterday. Only 100 cars made it through, before the line was cut off. Now the price has gone back up to $3.69 for regular unleaded.

No! No! No! Amy Winehouse Almost Charged For Assault

Winehouse spent last night at Holborn Police Station in central London after arriving for questioning about reports that she hit a man who got in her way while she was playing pool and also that she head-butted another man who was hailing her a cab on Wednesday morning.

I don’t know why, but this just makes me laugh. Maybe she hurt these guys, maybe not, but of course they are going to take it as far as they can. She is Amy Winehouse. They will now get loads of money from Tabloid Magazines and papers that want their “story”. This is how many people make a living here in the UK. Some D list celebrities only get married so they can then sell the pictures to mags like Hello and OK . Every week there is some cheesy spread about some one’s newly redecorated house or brand new baby. The entire family will then slap on a few pounds of make up and pose in front of their couch, their refrigerator, the fire place, the big screen TV and of course out in their beautifully landscaped garden. Most of these people are former pop stars, but some of them are guys who got hit accidentally by a famous person playing pool.

Anyway, Amy was let off with just a warning. No charges were made, but she did finally get a decent nights kip inside a police station.
