Flamethrowers are really stupid when you are firing 3000 people

Every Wednesday I stroll past the news editor’s desk in SBP Towers sometime in the afternoon and he asks if I’ve got a column for him. I’ve never failed to deliver yet he still doesn’t trust me. Yet, for this week’s column, it felt particularly good because I got to say:

Milwaukee woman attacked by paintballs three times

Tom Durian Milwaukee, WI -- A North Milwaukee woman has been the victim of a paintball attack three times in one week. It comes as Milwaukee Police warn residents paintball shootings may be on the rise because of a social media campaign in which young people are challenged to shoot paintballs instead of real bullets. Tiffany Copeland was first hit by a paintball in the face last week. She was getting out of her car when she says someone drove by and fired at her.

WHAAAAT? WHY? HOW? WHEN? Oh they just sacked him, like an hour or so ago. Got something to do with him agreeing to become Real Madrid’s manager after the World Cup, it seems. But that makes no sense! So what if he’s going to take over at Madrid, that’s AFTER the World Cup! Yeah, but it seems the Spanish FA is really pissed off because they were only given a head’s up about this whole Real Madrid thing five minutes before Madrid announced it at a press conference. All that’s fine, but Spain’s first group match is in 55 hours or something like that! They’re playi…
