A man declared dead in Venezuela after a highway accident woke up during his autopsy according to a report yesterday by Reuters.
Carlos Camejo, 33, woke up in the morgue with severe pain while an examiner was cutting into his chin.
While making the incision, the examiner noticed the supposed corpse started bleeding, which, for those that don’t watch CSI, isn’t supposed to happen. The examiner quickly started stitching the incision back up before Camejo woke up.
His wife showed up to the morgue to identify the dead body but instead found her husband alive with a new scar and a copy of his own order of autopsy.
A Miami lawyer is threatening to use legal action to stop release of the video game Grand Theft Auto IV unless a scene is removed from the game the lawyer thinks is referencing him according to GamePolitics.com.
Jack Thompson, a lawyer who has attacked the Grand Theft Auto franchise in the past for its excessive violence, thinks he is portrayed in an early mission in GTA IV in which Niko, the game’s lead character, enters a lawyer’s office. He points a gun at the lawyer who then says, “the firm supports the second amendment and that ‘Guns don’t kill people. Video games do.’” Niko then kills the lawyer.
Nearly two years after the Xbox 360 was launched on Nov. 22, 2005, I finally broke down and purchased one for myself on Friday.
I had been waiting for the dust to settle between the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 war in order to see which system came out on top. Not to mention the surprising success of the Nintendo Wii, which I still haven’t yet played. Knowing that Nintendo games tend to angle themselves a little more towards a younger audience, I knew it would come down to the Xbox or PS3.
Even now, there is no clear-cut winner. I had been feeding my gaming addiction with healthy doses of World of Warcraft and Command & Conquer 3: Tibirium Wars on my PC over the past year. But my itch to get a high-end console was getting too strong to ignore.
Andy and I had an NFL adventure Sunday, leaving from Columbus at 7:30 a.m. to drive to Cleveland and watch the Cincinnati Bengals play the Cleveland Browns.
Andy was able to score two tickets from Katie’s cousin and we set off for Cleveland Browns Stadium prepared to watch the Bengals kick the absolute crap out of the lowly Browns.
Neither of us had been to Browns Stadium before so we took the advice of Katie’s cousin, picked up some beer and headed to the stadium looking for some tailgaters instead of just finding a bar.
Prior to the trip, Andy and & decided to wear our Bengals gear despite going to an opposing team’s home field. Even after hearing stories of spectators cheering for opposing teams getting beer, and even urinate, sprayed on them, we decided that the Browns fans weren’t expecting to win the game and therefore would be a little less confrontational.
I quit smoking back in January. And I went months without smoking a single cigarette.
I caved and picked it up again over a few days at some point this year. Then quit again. And as it stand now, I cheat on occasion.
Like this last weekend when B.A. came to town. He used to smoke as well, so now he only buys cigarettes when he comes to Columbus to hang with me. Or when I go to Columbia City.
So I get to use him as an excuse to bum a few and he gets to use me as an excuse to have a few. It’s not a bad little system.
I realize that you’ve probably seen Britney Spears’ comeback performance from the VMAs earlier this week. It sadly was the nation’s biggest news item in the days following the performance. If you have seen it, you should watch it again anyway. And if you haven’t seen the train wreck, here you go:
