A 19-year old man displayed a weapon at a Delray Beach McDonald’s last week because the store’s ice cream machine wasn’t working, police said. Jerry Henry had an "AK-style rifle" as he entered the McDonald’s drive-thru Aug. 13, according to NBC affiliate WPTV. Henry, the vehicle’s passenger, “became upset” upon learning that ice cream was unavailable at the McDonald’s on Linton Boulevard close to I-95. He grabbed the gun, sending restaurant employees to seek cover in the bathroom. Henry was arrested and there were no reported injuries.

Last night, for the first time in a long time, I watched the 1993 movie Falling Down on YouTube, and was struck by the final line: “I’m the bad guy? How’d that happen? I did everything they told me to.” William Foster is a guy who believed in the system. He followed the rules, and yet lost everything. His wife divorced him. He lost his job. His wife has a restraining order against him so he’s not even allowed to attend his daughter’s birthday party. The world has ceased to make sense. Falling Down is a classic — some of...

‘Snoping' Out Snopes on Hillary Clinton It wasn’t in India where Hillary Clinton first blamed ‘pressure’ from men for why white women voted for Trump. Clinton first tried blaming pressure from men for women in voting against her in 2017—but ‘fact-checking’ snopes.com was quick to deny it in this Sept. 15, 2017 headline: ‘A viral Facebook quote misquotes the 2016 Democratic presidential candidate’. It was no less than barefaced Fake News in action!

NEW YORK -- By the dawn's early light, Caroline Marcil finally finished on national TV what she started at a hockey game — a flawless rendition of "The Star-Spangled Banner." The Montreal singer was to perform the national anthems of two countries before the United States' 5-4 exhibition victory over Canada on Friday in Quebec City. Despite two tries, she forgot the words to the U.S. anthem and then left to get the lyrics. When she returned to the rink, she slipped on the carpet covering the ice and plopped on her back before a Quebec Coliseum crowd of 7,166....
