Brittney Horstman was stopping off at the Miami Federal Detention Center as part of her job duty.  At the time, she was an employee of the Federal Public Defender’s Office in Dade County, Florida, so she was going to visit one of her clients, until the guards stopped her for setting off the metal detector.  The culprit was her underwire bra.  Although attorneys are allowed to be passed through security wearing their underwire bras after a wand screening thanks to an agreement made between the attorneys and the prison, Brittney was not as the guards apparently missed that memo.

Wisely, she took her bra off in the bathroom, and tried to pass through again.  This time, she was turned back because she WASN’T wearing a bra, which is a violation of the facility’s dress code.  Apparently, there was just no way she was going to get in to see her client that day, and she raised an appropriate level of stink about it, both to Warden Linda McGrew and to her colleagues.  Warden McGrew did a thorough investigation, and has said the incident won’t happen again.

If they’re worried about her smuggling in contraband, they’re probably checking the wrong part of her body.  Just throwing that out there.

I’ve never had a problem eating food from a gas station.  Just two weeks ago, I ate a couple of hot dogs purchased from a gas station.  They were delicious.  That’s not the first time I’ve eaten gas station food, and I doubt it will be the last.  There’s nothing like a fun food novelty. […]

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.
