As an adult who has chosen not to procreate, I understand that it would take a great deal of fortitude to survive a visit to that mecca for children know as Chuck E. Cheese.

What with all the screaming kids romping around, the buzzers and bells associated with the games the tots play and the sub par pizza, this is one franchise I’ve never stepped foot into. And please note that I didn’t even bring up that the restaurant’s mascot is a giant rat. Okay, now I’ve mentioned it.

But Sandy Diehl and Brian Frederick went a little overboard in gearing up for a visit to Chuck E. Cheese with their child in Fort Meyers, Fla.

The pair took enough drugs to cause them to nod off at their table while their child enjoyed a slice. Parents at neighboring tables alerted staff at the restaurant, who called in the cops.

In addition to not winning the “Parent of the Year” award, Diehl and Frederick were both arrested and their child was placed in protective custody. These two must have taken parenting classes with the father of the smoking toddler. At least they didn’t leave the kid locked in the car, while they went to a strip club.

This is just another story that will make those Chinese moms feel even more superior.

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.
