Bull Bison Sends Grandpa Airborne

So there’s a viral Yellowstone video that’s equal parts “whoa” and “nope.” (Check it out in the link below.)

Simple Ways To Keep Your Dog Summer Safe

Hot weather reminder: your dog is not built for summer like you are. Dogs don’t sweat like we do, so they can get heatstroke really fast. So how hot is TOO HOT for your dog?

Myth-Busting Summer Cooling Hacks

So the internet really showed up for this “Heat Dome” dilemma we’ve been enduring… with a whole bunch of “life hacks.” Some helpful, some… not so much. Like sleeping under a damp sheet. That can work—unless it’s humid, in which case you’re just marinating. Then there’s the whole “smear yogurt on your windows” idea. The … Continue reading Myth-Busting Summer Cooling Hacks

City of Joplin July 4 Celebration

So here’s the deal for the 4th in Joplin… things kick off at 5:30 at Fred G. Hughes Stadium over at MSSU. It’s the big one this year—the country’s turning 250, so they’re going a little extra.

Friendly Fireworks Safety Tips

A quick reminder before you celebrate America by almost setting your garage on fire… fireworks are not that complicated. Find an open space. Not your driveway. Not next to your car.

Cigarette Carelessness Causes Fiery Fireworks Fallout

A quick reminder as we approach the holiday weekend: cigarettes and fireworks are not a great combo. Cigarettes and 700 pounds of fireworks, even worse. Out on Whidbey Island in Washington, a guy had been quietly building what neighbors describe as a very not-quiet stockpile of fireworks.

How to Stay Hydrated When You Hate Water

So here comes a July heatwave, and apparently the official advice is “drink water.” Cool. Love that for people who actually enjoy water. If you’re not one of them, don’t panic—hydration has options. First, just keep a bottle nearby. Not because it’s exciting, but because you’re more likely to sip it out of boredom. Which … Continue reading How to Stay Hydrated When You Hate Water

Silly Sack Sparks Serious Charges

Yet ANOTHER example of confidence gone horribly wrong. Stop us if you’ve heard this before. Police in Kentucky get called out to a car parked where it shouldn’t be—employee parking, nothing wild. Just a “hey, what’s going on here” situation. But then an officer looks inside and spots a bag that literally says, “Definitely not … Continue reading Silly Sack Sparks Serious Charges

File this under “things your blender was not built for.” A guy in Lakewood, Washington decided to DIY some fireworks in his backyard shed and thought, sure, let’s toss black powder into a blender.

Bourbon Bandits Boost $500K in Bottles

So this feels less like a crime and more like an incredible heist movie that somehow forgot the dramatic music. Middle of the day. Philadelphia. Totally normal Friday. And somehow… 10,800 bottles of bourbon just casually walk out of a warehouse.

Break Room Blunder Sparks Firearm Fiasco

In Myrtle Beach, a story that feels very relatable until it absolutely isn’t. Michael DeBiase, a police detective, apparently lost it over a coworker microwaving fish in the station break room.
