Tired Of Waiting!

~ Pie President ~ Leave a comment

An 11 year old kid in Independence, Missouri, got fed up waiting for his mom while she was picking up his siblings from Count on Me Academy daycare.

It was around 4 p.m. on Wednesday, February 19th, near MO 291 and 23rd Street.

The mom left the car running with the kid inside, and he decided to take matters into his own hands. He hopped into the driver’s seat, thinking he’d put it in reverse to leave, but instead slammed it right into the daycare building.

No one got hurt (lucky break there) and the damage was mostly to the wall and a window, which got pushed in pretty good.

Proof Of Time Travel?

~ Pie President ~ Leave a comment

There’s a black and white photo from 1941, taken by Edwin Rosskam on Chicago’s South Side, showing a bunch of kids lined up outside a cinema.

The buzz? It’s all about a boy on the far right of the photo who’s holding something rectangular that some folks swear looks like an iPad.

Naturally, since iPads didn’t exist until 2010, people started throwing around the idea that it’s evidence of time travel

Pretty wild, right?

But here’s the thing: others look at it and say, “Nah, that’s just a book or a notebook.” Back in the day, kids often carried stuff like that, especially if they were dressed up nice for a movie outing (Think Sunday best vibes here.)

Some even pointed out that ushers used to check for notepads to stop people from sketching bootleg copies of films, which kinda fits the scene.

Plus, the photo’s got that vintage charm where everyone’s decked out in hats and coats, making it feel more like a snapshot of the past than a science fiction plot.

You be the judge! Check the link below and let us know what you think!

RIP Howie The Crab!

It’s a sad day for fans of Howie the Crab, the rainbow crab from Omaha who captured hearts worldwide with her charming antics.

Howie passed away on February 18th, 2025, at the age of 9, far surpassing the typical lifespan of her species, which is around 3-5 years in captivity.

Her owner, Laura Porter, shared the news with a heavy heart, describing Howie as a beloved companion who lived a remarkable life filled with love, tiny hats, and, of course, her famous caviar feasts.

Howie first scuttled into the spotlight in 2022 when a TikTok video of Laura cleaning her shell with a toothbrush went viral.

From there, her adventures (wearing custom made hats, eating luxurious treats like caviar and cheese, and even using sign language to communicate) earned her over a million followers across social media.

She wasn’t just a pet; she was a personality, showing the world that crabs could be sentient, playful, and deeply connected to their humans.

Moving The Chicken Base…

~ Pie President ~ Leave a comment

It’s true, KFC is pulling its corporate headquarters out of Kentucky after nearly a century tied to the state.

Yum! Brands, the parent company, announced on February 18, 2025, that they’re shifting KFC’s U.S. base from Louisville to Plano, Texas, where it’ll bunk with Pizza Hut’s global HQ.

About 100 Louisville based employees will relocate over the next six months, and another 90 remote workers have 18 months to make the move.

The company’s calling it a “strategic decision” to boost collaboration across its brands, and some speculate Texas’s business friendly perks (like no corporate or personal income tax) might be a draw, though Yum! didn’t confirm that.

Emergency Contact Information!

~ Pie President ~ Leave a comment

Kylie Kelce, wife of former Philadelphia Eagles star Jason Kelce, recently shared on her “Not Gonna Lie” podcast that she’s chosen her mom, Lisa McDevitt, as her emergency contact instead of her husband.

With three daughters and a fourth on the way, Kylie needs someone she can count on to pick up the phone, no questions asked.

Jason, it turns out, gets bombarded with so many random calls that he’s trained himself to ignore anything from an unknown number. “He gets so many random people calling him. It’s insane how many people call him from random phone numbers,” she explained.

She’s not shading Jason’s reliability, however, as Kylie made it clear she trusts him to “handle shit” and be there when it counts. But practically speaking, her mom’s the safer bet for a quick response.

A Historic Move!?

~ Pie President ~ Leave a comment

The New York Yankees, long known for their strict grooming policy, have finally loosened the reins.

As of February 2025, players, coaches, and uniformed personnel are allowed to sport “well-groomed beards,” marking the end of a decades old rule that banned facial hair below the upper lip (except for mustaches.)

The change, confirmed by team owner Hal Steinbrenner in a statement to the YES Network, scraps a policy instituted in 1973 by George Steinbrenner, who famously demanded clean shaven faces to maintain a professional image.

That rule led to iconic moments, like Don Mattingly’s 1991 benching for refusing to trim his mullet and mustache, and players shaving at their lockers to comply.

Now, beards are fair game as long as they’re neat (no wild, unkempt looks allowed.)

Hair length rules have also eased, though it still can’t extend below the jersey collar.
