Real Genius: High School Girls Call in Bomb Threat to Participate in Senior Skip Day - Corona del Sol High School

The stupid is strong in these two. You'd cry if you didn't have to laugh at them. The really stupid part? One of the girls arrested had only one excused absense left and already had to use it for ANOTHER COURT DATE, which is why she--allegedly--called in the bomb threat so she could participate in the senior skip day. As if attendance at the school had ever really been a priority for her, you think?

At right, their mug shot pictures. My guess is they will be pretty popular in prison.

Here's the details from AZ Central:

Tempe police arrested two teenage girls Thursday on suspicion of sending false bomb threats to Corona del Sol High School in Tempe last week, resulting in the closure of the school last Friday. Authorities believe the girls used the bomb threat as a way to miss a day of school, said Sgt. Steve Carbajal, public information officer for Tempe police, in a press conference.

Carbajal said Laurin Godson, 18, of Tempe and Lauren Tamburrelli, 18, of Chandler were arrested Thursday morning. Godsen was arrested at 7:55 a.m. at the high school, and Tamburrelli was arrested at her home at 10:02 a.m. Corona del Sol's administration received a handwritten note March 19, telling "whomever it may (expletive) concern" that on March 20, "large parts of the school will be destroyed." The note continued on, using more expletives and warning that the bomb would not be found and this was not a joke.

Shortly after this note was received, the school administration office received a call from Godson, who said she was being held against her will by a male who was forcing her to call the school. She stated there would be a bomb at the school Friday. Because of these threats, the Tempe Union High School District, working with Tempe police, decided that the school should be shut down for the safety of staff and students on March 20.

Carbajal said multiple students came forward to provide information that linked Godson and Tamburelli to the threats. Carbajal said this information indicated that Godson carried out this plan in order to get school cancelled for Friday. Police said Godson had a court date to meet on Friday, but was told that she only had one more day of unexcused absence. Godson wanted to attend senior ditch day later on in the year, and the closure of school on Friday allowed Godson to meet her court date and save her last absence.

Drunk Teen Calls 911, Asks Cops for Ride Home

Okay, so technically because this happened in the UK this kid called 999 (same thing as 911 in the US) but he's still a dumbass. He also allegedly bit a cop who showed up to arrest him AND THEN give him a ride . . . to the police station

Here's more story from the BBC:

A drunk teenager who dialled 999 to demand that police give him a lift home has been told by a judge that he narrowly avoided being sent to jail. Daniel Paskin called repeatedly to ask police to send a car to pick him up in Perth in the early hours of 11 January. Instead of taking him home, they took him to the police station where he bit an officer's hand.

Paskin, 17, has been placed on probation and was ordered to carry out 120 hours of community service. Perth Sheriff Court was told that when the officers came to arrest Paskin he said: "I have called 999 loads. Take me home to Scone."

Paskin, now of Culliven Court, Perth, admitted persistently misusing the 999 system to demand the police attend a non-urgent and non-emergency matter. He also admitted assaulting Pc David Gillespie by biting him on the hand to his injury.

Can You Make 1000 a Day or Is Affiliate Marketing Some Kind of Scam?

You've seen the claims: Make 1000 Dollars a Day Working at Home, in your spare time, maybe an hour a day.

Is it possible? Yes, it is possible, and I have seen proof of it.

Can "anyone" do it? No, I am convinced that if any idiot can make 1000 a day, then it will cease to be a skill and the market will be overrun with people doing the same thing. No, the reality is that SOME people can make $1000 a day . . . maybe more, LOTS more, using the techniques described in the Day Job Killer.

Here's the basics: you become an affiliate marketer (like we do for the Idiot Proof Diet) and then promote the product on your website or via Google Adwords (you don't need to even own a website to do this!) The other party creates and distributes the products (in most cases a quickly downloadable ebook) a middleman takes care of the credit card payments and any returns, then pays you a hefty commission. In some cases as much as a $100 a sale! (Yes, I have made a few of those.) Don't have to make many of those to make 1000 a day, do you?

Again, I don't think just anyone can make 1000 dollars a day, but a many of people can, IF you know the techniques behind it. This is not the kind of thing you rush into blindly without knowing the ropes. Believe me, it can be costly. Affiliate marketing takes some time, and some effort, but once in place they offer an automated income stream that works 24/7, 365 days a year (I have made affiliate sales on Christmas Day, New Years Day, while I'm on vacation . . .) that works better than anything I am aware of. Is there any other job you can make money at by NOT showing up, day after day?

Here's more about how to make 1000 a day from the Day Job Killer's web site:

Given the fact that over $6,500,000,000 was made by affiliates last year (yes, that's billion), you would think that simply being an affiliate was the key to untold riches and freedom. And you would be in good company. But you would also be way, way off the mark. The game is different in 2007 - very different.

But first, let me explain to you what the affiliate marketing that I know is like, the one that you know is out there... somewhere.

Firstly, affiliate marketing is simply the promotion of other people's products for a cut of the pie - potentially a big, lucrative cut that you can repeat, over and over, for years to come.

You promote a product, take your share and don't have to be worry about product fulfillment, customer service, or pretty much anything. The only question that should be on your mind is, "when is my check coming?" There are no expenses, no worries... in short, affiliate marketing is the easiest way to leverage yourself into the world of cash-rich.

The Day Job Killer website contains some free information about how you can learn how to make 1000 a day. But don't take my word for it. You can read, can't you?

Jade Puckett: Bride Booked in Wedding Dress After Drunk Driving Arrest

It wasn't exactly the wedding night that bride Jade Puckett had expected: She and Billy Puckett, both 26, were married last weekend in Clear Lake, Texas and proceeded to their reception. Police say that around midnight they were on their way to their wedding night hotel when officers pulled the newlyweds over as part of a “March Madness” push. The groom was immediately charged with driving while intoxicated, while Jade--who allegedly became belligerent--was also arrested. No only that, but when Jade was booked into jail, she still had her wedding dress on. And, according to her, she was left in a cell with about 15 to 20 other women, while male guards came by several times to show her off to other jailers.

Now Jade claims she was--surprise!--humiliated by the whole incident and has filed a complaint with the Harris County Precinct 8 Constable’s office. She doesn't dispute the drunk driving charge but thinks she could have been treated better by arresting officers. (Houston Chronicle) At right, Jade Puckett's mug shot picture.
