Nicolas Cocaign had a reason for violently attacking and killing his cellmate Theirry Baudry.  It wasn’t over money, or property, or drugs, or any of the other things prisoners are typically killed over.  Cocaign beat, stabbed, stomped, and smothered his cellmate to death because, as Cocaign said, “I wanted to take his soul.”  To do this, of course, you have to eat your victim’s heart.  Cocaign didn’t pay attention in anatomy class and ate his roommate’s lung instead.

That’s right, the 39-year-old Cocaign went to all that trouble and didn’t even stir-fry the right body part with onions on that makeshift cooker in a prison near Rouen, France.  Cannibals everywhere are ashamed of you, sir, for not knowing your cuts of organ meat properly.  How could someone ever confuse a heart for a lung?!

Commissioner Roger Goodell gathered 32 NFL owners for one big question.  One of the league’s most wanderlust-stricken franchises is looking to move again.  The Oakland-Los Angeles-Oakland Raiders, tired of gutting it out in a run-down stadium, were once again looking for greener pastures.  Only the Miami Dolphins refused to cooperate.  With a vote of 31-1, […]

In 2006, an injury to Dallas Cowboys starting quarterback Drew Bledsoe opened the door for an undrafted free agent by the name of Tony Romo to take the helm of America’s Team and lead the Dallas Cowboys to an early playoff exit.  Bledsoe went from starter to afterthought in a season.  Now, the circle continues […]

For 89 years, Oscars has never had a major mistake.  The last few Oscars might have had a few flubs, but at least they never got the most important category of the night wrong.  Well, that’s now changed, all thanks to OG Bonnie and Clyde legends Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway.  When Faye Dunaway called […]

Tom Brady has been wildly successful, if controversial.  He’s the first quarterback ever to win five Super Bowls and only the second player to do so after Charles Haley.  Unlike Haley, Brady won all his Super Bowls with the same team, the New England Patriots.  The only thing that seems to be able to stop […]

Ben Affleck, no matter what you might think of him, is a talented actor and director.  He’s got the goods, but he’s smart enough to know when he’s in over his head.  All along, since he took on the mantle of Batman, he’s had his eyes on writing, directing, and starring as the Caped Crusader. […]

In May, students for the for-profit American College of Education were running into some problems.  Their access to email accounts and course information was locked down by Google, who had disabled their accounts.  The reason why?  A fired IT worker for the American College of Education locked the school out of their Google cloud account.
