Shouldn't have to get that far though. The fact it's even a story is a problem.

Hopefully, the kid has some genuine Native American roots. Unlike the likes of Buffy Sainte-Marie.

Ex-rocker Theo Lengyel named a person of interest in girlfriend's mysterious disappearance

Lengyel played saxophone, clarinet and keyboards in the rock group Mr. Bungle.

According to Mr. Bungle bassist Trevor Dunn, "we unanimously decided to go on without him because he wasn't growing with the rest of the band and we were running out of things for him to do. He got pissed off and I haven't heard from him since."

I know him quite well, and I can say without hesitation that the scariest thing about him is his unfulfilled potential.

Driver says he hit a deer, but police found a dead body in his car

A man is in custody facing criminal charges after police say he fatally struck a pedestrian in Dallas, then drove nearly 40 miles to a fast food restaurant in White Settlement with the victim's dead body in his passenger seat.

White Settlement Police said they were called to a restaurant parking lot at about 11:15 p.m. Saturday after a restaurant customer reported a vehicle in the parking lot with extensive damage and the driver slumped over the steering wheel. An officer arrived a short time later and noticed a lifeless person was also in the front passenger seat.

Police said detectives believe the impact was so severe that the 45-year-old pedestrian was thrown inside the vehicle while he was in the cross walk near Cockrell Hill Road and I-30 in west Dallas. Police say his legs were recovered from the scene. The rest of his body was found in the passenger side of Lujan's vehicle in White Settlement, police said.

Despite a badly damaged hood and a large hole in his windshield, investigators say Flores drove 38 miles before stopping at the Jack in the Box parking lot between 8 p.m. and 9 p.m., at least two hours before police were called by the customer.

Wow, that reminds me of that case with the woman who hit that guy with her car.. was he homeless? And as he was injured and stuck to the windshield, she just drove on home, parked the car in the garage and let him die there.

Some nice images from the volcanic activity on Iceland here.

I've been to Iceland twice and want to go back, but now's probably not a good time.

That case was the first thing I thought of when I read that news story. After checking that wiki entry, I was very surprised to see that it happened in 2001. I remember it quite well but I would've guessed it happened closer to 5 or 6 years ago.
