1. At the tunnel from Windsor, Canada into Detroit, U.S.
Customs agents detained two women who were found to have $59,000 hidden in

$5 bill and Abraham Lincoln had a big smile on his face.
2. At Tiffany’s on 5th Avenue in New York City, a
thief grabbed two necklaces worth $98,000 and walked out. *** You know, that’s
really sad. Lindsay had been doing so
well in rehab...
3. A man in New York City is expected to survive after

Actually, that behavior is more typical of guys whose wives make them
watch the “Today” show.

finally come, there’s a greater chance that you’ll be awake for it.

strictly limited to only one six pack of beer.
6. Edward Snowden, the guy who revealed the NSA’s surveillance

it.
8. A bank employee in Germany accidentally transferred over
$200 million when he fell asleep on his keyboard and kept the “2” key pressed
down, typing 2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2. *** Well, mistakes happen when you’re “2
depressed.”
9. A law school student in Texas has designed a plastic handgun
that you can make at home on a 3-D printer.
*** You can use it to rob people
of cash that they made at home on their printer.
10. Russian President Vladimir Putin and his wife announced
their divorce after attending a ballet at the Kremlin. ***
