Walmart's not getting *any* more ammo? What?

I can't call Corporate to confirm this - I don't have enough of a voice to make myself understood right now. Can someone else call them and report back?

I mean...wtf. Seriously, wtf.


UPDATE: according to FarmDad, this is false information. Sorry for the panic post, folks...and thanks to FarmDad for calling them. I hate how stuff like this happens when I can't call to confirm.

Well, that's a bit of a surprise.

Recently I got a chain email that read like every other urban legend: beware blah blah someone's gonna get you blah blah. This time, it referred to "bottle bombs" being left in yards.

I don't know if someone got the idea from that chain mail or what, but apparently, this happens for real. I'm a tad weirded out at present. Beware strange bottles in your yard!

This makes me sick.

Apparently, in California, defaulting on one's student loans means one's husband gets treated like a criminal.

...Wait, what?

Apparently that guy's wife defaulted on her student loans so instead of handling this like any NORMAL credit agency would - you know, with taking it to court, garnishing wages, etc. - they decided this needed a SWAT team.  AT 6 AM.  The cherry on this ridiculous sundae?  The person they were looking for WASN'T HOME AT THE TIME.  Oh, and they tossed the couple's kids in the squad car with their dad.  Because, you know, THAT won't teach them not to trust uniformed individuals ever again...

Seriously, WHAT were they thinking?

ETS: since it appears the initial link is down, go here.  Thanks to Tam for the updated link.
