Man Fined for Driving Drunk on Motorized Cooler

Have you seen one of these things? Looks like a regular cooler, except for the massive wheels, engine and steering wheel. Not sure how much booze they actually hold, but apparently it was enough to get this guy wasted. Here's more from Fox 44:

A North Country man has been fined almost $400 for driving a motorized cooler while drunk. Leslie Marr of Whitehall pleaded guilty this week to driving while ability impaired, a non-criminal violation. Marr was arrested in May for being drunk while driving a "Cruzin Cooler," which has handlebars and a seat on top for the operator. Marr was arrested after police saw him swerving while riding the cooler on a sidewalk. He was fined $300 and directed to pay an $80 surcharge.

This week's female teacher banging (allegedly) underage students at her school comes to us from little Holly, Michigan, just up the road a ways from Detroit and not too far away from the Dumbass Daily corporate offices. At right, the only picture we could find of Ranee Sue Proper, 41, who used to be the vocal music teacher at Holly High School . . . that is, until she was arrested this week on five counts of third-degree criminal sexual conduct for allegedly having sex with two students both in her home and at the school. Here's more from the Flint Journal:

After months of whispers in this small town about a teacher allegedly having sex with students in the high school, a former Holly High School vocal music teacher was arraigned Tuesday on felony sex charges.
A police investigation began after a parent brought the allegations to police in May. Proper, a teacher in the Holly School District for four years, resigned June 25.
"The theatre and music kids, a lot of them will be devastated by this," said drama teacher Joe Mishler, who worked with Proper. "The last part of the school year was tough on the kids. She was someone they trusted and believed in."

Teacher Caught Moonlighting as Prostitute, School District Still Deciding What to Do!

That sounds pretty shocking until you find out this happened in New Zealand where prostitution has been legal since 2003, so this mother in her 30s with two children, was only working as a hooker to, uh, supplement her income, according to the district which will have to decide what happens next. Here's more from Stuff:

An Auckland primary school teacher moonlighting as a prostitute will have to wait for a decision on her future employment by her school's board of trustees. The new teacher, a mother in her 30s with two children, has been working as a prostitute to supplement her income, the Herald on Sunday reported.
The newspaper, which did not name the teacher or her school, said a parent told the teacher's principal, who was balancing a possible negative reaction from parents with the woman's right to work in a job that has been legal in New Zealand since 2003.
It has been referred to the school's board of trustees, which will meet in committee to debate whether to ignore the issue, discipline the teacher or ask the Teachers' Council to decide. The woman reportedly told the principal that her action in her own time was not his concern, and that it was not affecting her ability as a teacher.
Teachers Council director Peter Lind said the most important factor was whether the teacher's second job was affecting her teaching duties, "and there would have to be actual evidence".
