- In a boon for commercial car washes, 2,000 pounds of human waste spilled onto I-5 yesterday when a tractor-trailer rig stopped suddenly to avoid a collision with another stopped vehicle, forcing cars to drive through the muck during their afternoon commute [p-i]. On the bright side, the Dave Matthews Band wasn’t even slightly responsible this time around [mtv]
- You know how funny it is when you play Grand Theft Auto and cut people up with a sword? Yeah, substantially less amusing when it happens in real life. In a move that might bolster Ballard’s Nordic cred, last night the police shut down several streets in the neighborhood in their pursuit of a sword-wielding assaulter [k5]. Did anyone else know that people were still using swords as weapons? Both the assaulter and assaultee survived the attack and apprehension (respectively), unlike the last time the police engaged in a high profile faced off with a sword carrier [ets].
