In Arkansas, yes, Arkansas, an elderly couple were bring interviewed by station KARK for a story about a tree falling on their home over the weekend, when all of the sudden, a naked man emerged from the woods. You gotta love the old guy's reaction, first saying he oughta sich his dog on the naked man, then adding “I ought to go out there and start an ass kicking contest!”
Deputies later arrived and arrested the man, charging him with public intoxication and indecent exposure.

Rejected Job Seeker's Email Goes Viral (WARNING for Language)
University of Memphis graduate Taylor Grey Meyer applied for 30 jobs with the San Diego Padres after moving to California and seeking to get her start in the Sports Industry. After finally getting rejected for a minimum wage job, selling tickets, she gave up.
The Padres, sent her a letter, offering her a chance to pay around $500 to attend a sort of Sports Jobs Fair in San Diego. That sent her off. Here is her reply:
Hi [Redacted],
I wanted to thank you for reaching out to me when thinking of ways to meet your quota for the Sports Sales Combine.
After careful review I must decline. I realize I may be burning a bridge here, but in the spirit of reciprocity, I would like to extend you a counter-offer to suck my dick. Clearly, I don't have one of these, so my offer makes about as much sense as yours. But for the price you're charging to attend the event, I'm sure I would have no problem borrowing one.
Managers like you have found this to be the most authentic training available. Real, hands-on experience getting you on your way to perfecting the techniques you will need to climb the corporate ladder. In these tough economic times, it's always good to widen your skill set.
Let's talk about why I wasn't a good fit with your organization. Was it my extensive education that made me less of a fit, that now paying $500 will allow me to overcome? My graduate work in sports commerce? Being a law student, working toward becoming an agent? Was it my past experience overseeing the execution of national and international events? Wait, I know, maybe it was my previous internship with Major League Soccer, and that I actually got my "start" in professional sports at the age of 15 when I volunteered at a minor league ballpark in my hometown. And given all that, I chose to apply with the Padres, at least 30 times since moving to San Diego. Persevering through countless anonymous email rejections, I continued to submit my resume despite never even being granted the courtesy of a face-to-face interview. All for the joy of making $30K a year. Maybe you're right. Maybe I'm not the best fit for your company. But here's a nice fit, my foot in your ass.
All the best,
Taylor
The result? Well, she didn't get hired by the Padres, but she has received at least one offer for an interview from a team, and the email has been read by executives from dozens of pro sports teams!

(VIDEO) Arizona Executive Fired for Anti-Chick-Fil-A Rant!
Adam Smith was CFO of an Arizona medical manufacturer. He made this YouTube video of himself in the drive-thru of a Chick-Fil-A and later was fired by his employer.
After firing Smith, his employer released this statement: "We obviously found it very disturbing... We respect everybody’s ability
to share their opinions in the public square and we have a very diverse
workforce with a diverse set of opinions. We expect employees to behave
in a professional manner that’s commensurate with their positions, and
discuss their opinions in a civil fashion. ... We thought what he did
was inappropriate."
