A Good Insult!
Leaving With Aliens?
In November 1980, Granger Taylor, a 32-year-old mechanical genius from Duncan, British Columbia, vanished after leaving a note for his family claiming he was embarking on a 42-month interstellar journey aboard an alien spaceship.
Known for his extraordinary talent in restoring vehicles and building a life-size spacecraft replica, Taylor believed he could communicate with extraterrestrials. That stormy night, he disappeared, leaving behind all his possessions.
Despite extensive searches, no trace of him was found until 1986, when forestry workers discovered a blast site near Mount Prevost with fragments of a vehicle matching Taylor’s Datsun pickup, along with human bone fragments and a piece of clothing possibly his. No full body was recovered, and the cause of the explosion remains unclear.
Theories range from a tragic accident involving explosives Taylor may have carried, to mental health struggles, or even the possibility he staged his disappearance. The mystery endures, with no definitive evidence confirming his fate or the alien claims.
Don’t Stop Believin’!
Donald Trump recently shared an AI-generated video of himself playing the piano to Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believin’,” sparking a frenzy online.
The video, originally from a TikTok account, shows Trump at a patriotic-themed piano, later transitioning to guitar and drums in a red, white, and blue outfit, with cheerleaders in the background.
Reactions on social media range from amusement to criticism, with some calling it “cringe” or “propaganda,” while others find it “epic.”
The song choice is notable, as Journey previously issued a cease-and-desist in 2022 after their keyboardist performed it for Trump at Mar-a-Lago, citing misuse of their brand.
The video has also fueled debates about Trump’s use of AI for self-promotion.

Daily Throwback @ The Pie!
On May 17, 1993, American country music fans were treated to a song that would become a timeless anthem: Alan Jackson’s “Chattahoochee.” Released as the third single from his album A Lot About Livin’ (And a Little ’bout Love), this track captured the essence of Southern summers and small-town life, cementing Jackson’s place as a country music icon.
“Chattahoochee,” written by Alan Jackson and Jim McBride, is a nostalgic ode to coming-of-age experiences along the banks of the Chattahoochee River, which flows through Georgia and Alabama. With its catchy melody and vivid lyrics, the song paints a picture of youthful adventures—learning about life, love, and good times by the river. Lines like “We laid rubber on the Georgia asphalt / We got a little crazy but we never got caught” resonate with anyone who’s ever chased freedom under a summer sky.
The single was a massive hit, topping the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart and peaking at number 46 on the Billboard Hot 100. Its infectious energy and relatable storytelling earned it widespread acclaim, including the 1994 CMA Awards for Single of the Year and Song of the Year.
More than three decades later, “Chattahoochee” continues to evoke nostalgia and pride for fans of country music. It’s a reminder of a time when life felt simpler and a song could capture the heart of a community. Whether you’re from the South or just love a good story, the song’s universal themes of youth, freedom and fun keep it fresh for new generations.
So, on this May 17th, let’s crank up the volume, roll down the windows and celebrate the day Alan Jackson gave us “Chattahoochee”—a song that’s as much a part of country music history as the river itself.
The Shed @ Lowe’s!?
On May 11th, 2025, Slidell, Louisiana, police arrested a man for lewd conduct after finding him naked in a Lowe’s display shed.
Around 5 p.m., officers responded to a report of a nude male inside one of the store’s outdoor tool sheds. After searching several sheds, police found the suspect lying on his back with his pants down, allegedly masturbating with an open container of Vaseline and an electronic device nearby.
The man complied with orders to pull up his pants and was handcuffed without resistance. He claimed he was “just watching YouTube” and admitted to the behavior.
Charged with obscenity, he was booked into Slidell City Jail. His name was not released, but police noted he is not from Slidell.

Jell-O Shots For Everyone!
A kindergartener at Johnstown Elementary School in Pennsylvania brought alcoholic Jell-O shots to school on May 14th, 2025, and shared them with three classmates, according to the Greater Johnstown School District.
The students who consumed the shots were evaluated by the school nurse and taken to a hospital as a precaution.
The district is investigating how the child obtained the alcohol and local authorities are involved. The Jell-O cups are in possession of the school as evidence. No charges have been filed, and the district is prioritizing student safety while cooperating with police.
A Jail Escape!
On May 16th, 2025, ten inmates escaped from the Orleans Justice Center in New Orleans around 1 a.m. by exploiting a hole behind a toilet in a cell, which was likely created by cutting a steel bar with a tool.
The escapees, including suspects charged with serious crimes like murder, tampered with a defective cell door, breached the wall and exited through a loading dock. They scaled a perimeter wall using blankets to avoid barbed wire and fled across Interstate 10, discarding their jail uniforms.
The lone civilian corrections technician monitoring the pod had stepped away to get food, and the escape went unnoticed until a routine headcount at 8:30 a.m. Sheriff Susan Hutson indicated possible inside help from jail staff, as the breach suggested external assistance. Three employees were suspended pending investigation.
A Spider Monkey Rescue?
Violeta, an 18-month-old endangered spider monkey, was rescued recently during a drug bust in Vallejo, California.
The Solano County Sheriff’s Office seized half a pound of methamphetamine during a traffic stop, leading to the arrest of 50-year-old Clifford Vicenty. A subsequent search of his home uncovered another pound of meth, over $2,000 in cash, two rattlesnakes and Violeta. Owning primates is illegal in California, and spider monkeys, heavily trafficked and endangered due to habitat loss and the exotic pet trade, require specialized care.
Violeta was surrendered to the Oakland Zoo, where she is receiving treatment at the veterinary hospital. Initial exams show she is in decent health, but she’s receiving UV light treatments, calcium supplements, fruits, vegetables, and formula to strengthen her bones. Upcoming tests, including a CT scan and bloodwork, will assess her organ function and check for infectious diseases. Her temporary home includes blankets and toys for comfort and stimulation, but she is not available for public viewing.
