In a great example of life imitating art, two prison inmates at the Union County Jail in Elizabeth, NJ, escaped through holes that were hidden by posters of women, mimicking one of the greatest movies of the 20th century, The Shawshank Redemption. I haven't figured out why I get such a laugh out of this story, which you can read here.
Ever learn a really valuable little nugget of knowledge, and think to yourself, "That's Gold!"? Well, that happens to me a lot - except I often find out later that the "knowledge" is untrue, embellished, or worse - boring. That kind of information is fool's gold. And this blog? Well, I'll post the kind of information that I believe is even more valuable and important than gold, i..e. platinum knowledge - but you'd be a fool to trust me. The accuracy of this blog will fall somewhere between guy-on-the-corner and wikipedia. I'm going to try to keep this from becoming a sports blog, even though most of my opinions are about sports, because I want to keep some of the female readers in my family. So I'll do my best to keep the sports postings to 50% or less. I hope you enjoy reading, because it will be excruciatingly painful to write.
