"EVERYBODY WANTS TO BE REMEMBERED FOR SOMETHING"

"EVERYBODY WANTS TO BE REMEMBERED FOR SOMETHING". Those are words of a Lansing, Michigan man who Friday night set a new world record for stuffing live Madagascar Hissing Cockroaches in his mouth.

Sean Murphy put 16 of the roaches in his mouth at one time, shattering the previous record of 11! Check out the video. You know you want to!

WHO SAYS SILENT FILMS AREN'T FUNNY?

So, here's the deal.

Two weeks ago, some drunk guy wanders into a convenience store and tries to buy beer with hilarious results that are recorded by a security cam.

Last week, those hilarious results burst upon the internet for all to see.

This week, the folks at mustacheandmonocle.com add some old-timey silent film music and title cards and take out the color to turn the actual security cam footage into a comedy classic worthy of Chaplain, Lloyd and Keaton. NOT TO BE MISSED!

SMALL TOWN CRIME WAVE: COAST 2 COAST


This is the "unemployed gentlemen's club dancer" busted for throwing bottles at cars and then utilized her job skills to resist arrest by wrapping her legs around the pole supporting her front porch.

I can't imagine why she's unemployed!

THEY HAVE A SCIENCE DEPARTMENT AT LAWRENCE?


A graduate of Lawrence University in Appleton, Dr. Thomas Steitz has won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his work in the field of cellular research. Having a Nobel Prize winner from our area sort of makes you feel like maybe you could win one next year. Here's some signs....

SIGNS YOU'RE PROBABLY NOT GOING TO WIN THE NOBEL PRIZE


A graduate of Lawrence University in Appleton, Dr. Thomas Steitz has won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his work in the field of cellular research. Having a Nobel Prize winner from our area sort of makes you feel like maybe you could win one next year. Here's some signs....

If you're listening to this show while sitting in your Spiderman Underoos and eating a bowl of Fruit Loops...and you’re at work...you're probably not going to win a Nobel Prize.

If your idea of "cellular research" is Googling T-Mobile looking for sexy picture of Catherine Zeta Jones...and you’re at work…you're probably not going to win a Nobel Prize.

If you think Quantum Mechanics are who you take your Hyundai Quantum to for repairs...you're probably not going to win a Nobel Prize.

If your life's work as a scientist has been testing the effect of dipping a sleeping friend's hand in a bowl of warm water...you’re probably not going to win a Nobel Prize.

If you think Thermodynamics are the high school football team from Thermo, Indiana...you're probably not going to win a Nobel Prize.

If you believe Einstein's Theory of Relativity was E=MC Hammer...you're probably not going to win a Nobel Prize.

If you don't think that the basic structure and function of the ribosome shows that the peptidyl transferase is an RNA catalyzed reaction...you're probably not going to win a Nobel Prize.

If, like me, you have absolutely no idea what that last one meant...you're probably not going to win a Nobel Prize.

If the closest you've ever come to creating a chemical reaction is the time you turned a six pack of Milwaukee's Best and a fifth of Jaeger into a puddle of sticky vomit...you're definitely not going to win a Nobel Prize.

SILVER LININGS IN THE THE PACKERS' LOSS TO THE VIKINGS


Offensive line should be well rested for Lion's game not having wasted a lot of valuable energy by, you know, blocking.

Team saved hundreds of dollars on costly Gatorade by not creating the need to dump a barrel of it over anybody’s head.

There are guys in San Francisco who'd pay big money to have a big, sweaty man like Jared Allen throw his arms around them and ride them to the ground and Aaron Rogers got that for free all night long. (Not that he seemed to enjoy it)

By allowing Brett to complete 3rd so many down passes, the Packer defense didn't have to wear themselves out running off the field.

If he keeps playing like he did last night, by November 1st game, Brett Favre will be too exhausted from celebrating touchdown passes to even play.

Donald Lee's hands are reportedly "baby soft" after apparently applying generous dollops of cocoa butter to them before 4th and 1 play in the 3rd quarter.

Thankfully, the Packers let Brett Favre "retire" since if a man his age had faced the Vikings with the Packer's current offensive line, today there would be a chalk body outline with the number 4 on the Metrodome turf.

After the game, manufacturers of tar and wholesalers of feathers saw marked increase in sales of their respective products to angry mob massing outside of home of Ted Thompson.
