For a lot of people, work is like a second home.  They might spend more time at the job than they do in their own home.  For Carolyn Weatherly and Audwin Mosby, Home Depot is so near and dear to their hearts that they took the unusual step of having their wedding at Home Depot in Lake Forest, California.  Both of them work there, and both of them say that their coworkers are just like family, so… why not have it on the clock?

The couple, both in their mid-50’s, had their wedding in the garden department at Home Depot in front of 100 guests, most of whom were wearing orange smocks (the bride was wearing traditional white).  They built their wedding arbor and a stage from supplies there in the store, no doubt using their collective employee discounts to save a little extra money.  If only they had built the minister, too!

A regional manager for Home Depot says it’s only the second wedding performed at the chain, which boasts 2193 locations throughout the world.

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.
