Jehv Maravilla, 21, and his friend Christian Toledo, 25, placed their poster in the Pearland, Texas McDonalds after noticing a lack of Asian representation in the marketing materials. The pair concocted a scheme that involved buying McDonalds uniforms from goodwill and creating fake badges to have their sign placed in the store. The sign remained in the store unnoticed for 51 days until they posted about their prank on Twitter, where it went viral.<\/p>\n

Now, they’re being rewarded for their stunt. On\u00a0The Ellen DeGeneres Show<\/em>, the two men found out that McDonalds wants more Asian-American representation in their marketing, and is going to feature both in an upcoming campaign. But the good news doesn\u2019t end there \u0097 each will be given a $25,000 check for their participation in the promotion.<\/p>\n

A woman in Michigan took away her 15-year-old’s iphone as punishment in April.\u00a0 But her ex-husband reported it as a theft, and the woman was arrested.<\/p>\n

The cops came and arrested Jodie . . . which included cuffing her, separating her from her four-week-old baby, and keeping her in jail for two hours.\u00a0 The prosecutors charged her with two counts of larceny, which could get her six months in prison.<\/p>\n

So this actually went to TRIAL last week.\u00a0 Fortunately, sanity prevailed a few minutes into the trial, when the judge found out it was just a mom punishing her daughter and immediately dismissed the charges.<\/p>\n

    TODAY\u2019S GOOD NEWS<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

    There’s a 47-year-old guy in San Antonio named Wesley Ryan who used to tool around town in a white 1993 Ford Mustang.\u00a0 And he loved that car more than pretty much anything, except his family.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    About 17 years ago, he decided to SELL it to pay off medical bills after his wife Laura was diagnosed with ovarian cancer.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    The good news is her treatments worked, and she’s been cancer free for 13 years now.\u00a0 Which is all that really matters.\u00a0 But he always missed that car.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    So their two kids . . . who are now in their 20s . . . recently managed to track down the Mustang’s new owner.\u00a0 And last month, they bought it BACK for him.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    There’s a video\u00a0of them surprising him with it.\u00a0 And as soon as he sees it, he starts crying.\u00a0 But he wasn’t just emotional about the car.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    He told a local paper that doing what they did proves his kids are good people.\u00a0 And knowing he and his wife raised them right is the, quote, “strongest, most powerful feeling that a parent can have.”<\/p>\n

    (There’s also another weird part to the story.\u00a0 It turns out the woman they bought the car from was selling it because her mom ALSO just\u00a0got diagnosed\u00a0with ovarian cancer.\u00a0 So once again, the money is going to help pay off medical bills.)<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

    Security video filmed three robbers storming a betting parlor in Ireland.\u00a0 Two were carrying hammers and one had a gun.\u00a0 There were three customers, and two of them hit the floor . . . but the third guy, a feisty senior citizen, didn’t.<\/p>\n

    He went behind the counter and started tangling with one of the robbers, and didn’t give up until he chased him out of the store.\u00a0 And then he came back in and mixed it up with another guy until he left.<\/p>\n

    Top Five Destinations on Our Bucket List<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

    A recent survey by AARP found that 46% of older Americans have a bucket list.\u00a0 And traveling is the #1 thing we want to do by far.\u00a0 83% of people with a bucket list said they have at least one destination on there.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    Here are the five most popular INTERNATIONAL destinations we want to visit . . .<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Australia.<\/li>\n
    2. Italy.<\/li>\n
    3. The U.K., or Ireland.<\/li>\n
    4. France.<\/li>\n
    5. The Caribbean.\u00a0 Africa is next, followed by Canada.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

       <\/p>\n

      But the good news is that FANTASIZING about a bucket list trip is half the fun.\u00a0 The survey found dreaming about a trip is just as enjoyable as going on the trip.<\/p>\n
