Vigilante Justice

This is just all kinds of political incorrectness, but Rufus Terrill's 'BumBot' is the kind of crime deterrent that would make Mack Machowicz (FutureWeapons) green with envy.

Pentagon Says It Blasted Falling Satellite

Could you possibly ask for a better excuse to test our 'Star Wars' technology?
My favorite quotes:

"...the military is tracking the debris as it falls over the Atlantic and Pacific oceans."

The Atlantic and Pacific Oceans? in other words, they have no idea where all of the crap is going to fall, so in order to avoid panic they're saying it will land in the oceans.

"...so far officials have tracked 'nothing larger than a football.'"

That's almost reassuring, unfortunately, even a football traveling at 2 brazillion miles/hour could take out a building.

So in short, what we've just done is created the first world wide cluster bomb.

What You Talkin' 'bout Willis?

Sorry ladies, but he's taken!
Say it ain't so. Alas, one of the world's great secrets, Coleman (40) and his beaming bride, 22yo Shannon Price, were married last August but nobody went public with it.
The story is here

classic quotes:

"I just want my own identity as well because I don't want to be known as Gary Coleman's wife," she said.

i can definitely understand that. I wouldn't want to be known as Gary Coleman's wife either.

Coleman played down their age differences, saying "I don't have issues with age, I have issues with intelligence ... She's more intelligent than I am and that's what matters to me."

While it wouldn't take a rocket scientist to be more intelligent than Gary Coleman, you still have to wonder about the intelligence of somebody marrying him.

Price, who is 5-foot-7, and Coleman, who is 4-foot-8, also played down their height gap.
"That doesn't really matter to me," she said. "He was 10 feet tall to me because he was sweet and I really liked his personality."

10 feet tall if you sliced him down the middle and glued him back end-to-end...almost.
As to the "sweet" personality... well there's this disorderly conduct citation shortly before he was married (the woman in the story was indeed Shannon), as well as the 1999 incident where he punched an autograph seeker.

According to other interviews, things are not going so well. Color me shocked.
