Bad Wi-Fi, mystery laundry piles, and a roommate who says, I'll Venmo you.

Maybe 2027 deserves an upgrade.

Coming August 2027, Four Lakes Properties introduces the brand new Union Station Apartments, furnished in-unit washer and dryer.

Internet included a great central downtown location, one to five bedroom apartments, and no double occupancy fees.

A

Tennessee man, I say a Tennessee man, who shot his wife stopped for a beer on the way to the hospital.

Yeah, shot, shot his wife.

Oh, I'll bet she needs some help.

Let's take her to the hospital after I have a beer.

I'm kidding.

I'm kidding, of course, that guy's a... jerk.

Man in Italy survived two days with a crossbow arrow in his head.

A new app lets strangers pay to come to your wedding and cover the cost by purchasing tickets.

You know, if I ever get married again, I'll let family and friends come to the wedding for free.

But if they want to be in the receiving line, they have to buy meat and greets for 500 bucks.

And if you want to get into the reception, VIPs are going to run you about a grand.

Unless you're a less liked relative or friend.

That'll be about 1500.

AOL is getting rid of its dial-up internet service.

Mark Knopfler of Dire Straits, 76 today, he marked the occasion with a new song called The Walker of

Life.

Finally, Sir Mix-A-Lot turns 62 today.

Nowadays, he really can't remember if he likes big butts or not.

He's trying to though.

Most nights for him, it's more like Sir Peas-A-Lot.
