Editorial: Son Of A Bitch Stole My Gas
2008-05-27 00:58:00 What a day in April it was. The prior week's light showers gave birth to new flowers and a healthy dark green lawn. Of course, as the man of the house, I found myself outside on a crisp but slightly warm morning fixing the blade of an overturned lawnmower. What do I see out of the corner of my eye? Greg Lynch, childhood friend and next door neighbor for fifteen years, crouching down nearly out of sight, siphoning gas from my Ford F-150.

Held Hostage by tenant
2008-05-02 05:58:00 I made big mistake when I rented to someone who needed a place to rent. I gave him a termination of notice and he stated that he would fight me because he had been a good tenant, etc. I have too much going on to go to court. He said he sign a 1 year lease I raised the rent from $600 to $700 p/m. I told him that after a year he would have to move. My question is when he signs a one year lease - at the 6 month mark can I raise the rent another $50.00?

Liv Tyler Held Hostage By Masked Strangers
2008-03-18 01:59:00 Liv Tyler and her son, Milo, are traipsing around, looking cute on a rainy afternoon just outside their Soho apartment. I feel like I had noticed some strange alterations Liv had made to her face (and God only knows where else) not that long ago, but she looks pretty normal in these pictures. I really wish she wouldn't mess with what God gave her. I wouldn't, if I looked like that. On another note, I just watched the trailer for Liv Tyler's new movie (which you can see after the jump), a suspenseful thriller called The Strangers, and I'm officially ready to buy one of these. A review for the film points out that the plot of an unsuspecting couple finding themselves held hostage in their own home is going to evoke some comparison's to a movie out at the moment with a similar storyline, Funny Games. Needless to say, I probably shouldn't watch a double-feature of these two back-to-back if I ever hope to be able to sleep alone at home again. There might need to be some The...
Soriano Hostage Crisis: Day 2 (Angels at Cubs, 3:05 CT)
2008-03-14 19:00:00 As day two of the Alfonso Soriano Lineups Hostage Crisis breaks over Mesa, the air hangs heavy with tension. Tension so thick you can sense it, feel it, smell it. Or maybe that's the lockerroom. But anyway, it's tense. In a suprise move to anyone who doesn't obsess over Cubs blogs all day, after hailing Soriano as "a great success" in the leadoff spot, Manager Lou Piniella inexplicably dropped him in the order to the number 2 spot. The move bats Soriano behind fan favorite Ryan Theriot, who has not been a great success hitting anywhere in the lineup. Soriano was devastated. "The first time I bat second in a big-league game [and] somebody was on base," Soriano said. "I did not feel very comfortable. I think I'll have to make a little adjustment. I have to play a couple more games batting second and see how I feel. As this story goes to press, there is no word on whether Ryan Theriot plans to apologize to Soriano for being on base. For now, Cubs fans can only watch and w...

"Held Hostage" Ab Workout
2008-03-12 03:30:00 This is how it started. The baby was sitting on me and I was singing the "Eentsy Weentsy Spider" (I know, some people say "itsy bitsy" we're "eentsy weensty" people), to him while he was bobbing up and down on my stomach. Well, after a couple of "bobs," I realized my stomach was getting quite a little workout because I had to contract my muscles before he came crash landing down on all of my organs. Good times... Until they ganged up on me. I don't know why I'm laughing. Because for some reason it was utterly hysterical? Mutiny maybe? They really could overtake me if they wanted to...My abs are already sore. But I'm not sure if it's bruised-sore or muscle-sore.

Pope meets mother of Colombian hostage Betancourt
2008-02-07 11:39:00 VATICAN CITY (Reuters) - Pope Benedict on Wednesday met the mother of French-Colombian politician Ingrid Betancourt, who has been held captive since 2002 by Colombian rebels. Yolanda Pulecio, who was dressed in black, exchanged words with the Pope for a few minutes at the end of his weekly general audience in the Vatican. The Vatican did not immediately issue a statement on the meeting. The Pope and French President Nicolas Sarkozy were believed to have discussed the kidnapping of Betancourt, a former presidential candidate, when Sarkozy visited the Vatican last month. Two women hostages were freed by Colombia's Marxist rebels on Jan 10, raising hopes for dozens more languishing in secret camps.

Lil Wayne taking hostage?
2008-01-14 16:59:00 Lil Wayne has been trying to skip out on paying his bills recently. But he made a big mistake when he tried to cheat some goons from Chicago. Here's a report sent in by one of our faithful readers:After the December 29th concert at the Premiere Entertainment Center, Lil Wayne was supposed to attend the official afterparty at the Congress Ballroom in Chicago. This afterparty was being thrown by Ming's Dynasty Records. This appearance was a makeup appearance for an afterparty Lil Wayne was paid for and missed in August after the Chicago Summer Jam given by Ming's Dynasty Records and The Ark Entertainment. Lil Wayne spent hours backstage getting high and went on stage too late to attend the afterparty. An infuriated group of men associated with Ming's Dynasty Records and The Ark Entertainment stormed Lil Wayne's hotel room and assaulted Lil Wayne's camp including security and forced Lil Wayne's Manager Cortez to come up with $15,000 cash in order to leave Chicago standing up.

Maybe I’m spoiled in the NY area where I have, at minimum, four viable airports (HPN, EWR, LGA and JFK) and innumerable airline choices but I find it very hard to imagine an airport where there is a monopoly. Or if not a monopoly, a time monopoly. If the traveler’s schedule is so strict that only one makes it, how does s/he tolerate the unavoidable delays? In an article on SmarterTravel.com titled “Frequent Flyer Resolutions for 2008,†he wrote, “My first resolution is to continue my gradual disengagement from mileage programs.†In a way, that’s what I’ve been doing.
