\u27a2 A Reddit user recently posted on the site about her quest to get her neighbor to remove a frog lawn ornament. In the post she explains that she walks through the neighborhood each day with her husband and six-year-old daughter, and that the daughter finds the frog statuette, which is holding a jar, creepy. She adds that she asked the owners to move the statuette, but they declined. She then reached out to a neighbor, who is vice president of the Homeowners Association (HOA)\u2014who then ruled the statuette is a violation of bylaws, so the frog\u2019s owners were forced to take it down and are now being fined. The post has hundreds of comments. Many commenters disapprove of the woman\u2019s choices regarding the statue\u2014saying she took things too far or that she\u2019s teaching her daughter to be entitled.<\/p>\n
\u27a2 It\u2019s hard to tell if someone is screaming in joy or pain sometimes. An Australian man recently told The Lott officials that he was talking to a friend about the winning numbers from Saturday\u2019s (June 20th) Lotto $20 Million Superdraw when he realized he had won. He was so excited that he started screaming with joy, and he says his neighbors then checked on him out of concern. The man was one of 27 players to get a $508,959.20 Division One jackpot from the drawing. He plans to use some of his winnings to buy a home.<\/p>\n
\u27a2 Talk about late. A Wisconsin man says he received a postcard from his parents earlier this month and was shocked to learn they actually sent it 16 years earlier. Tom Ramsden of Beloit says the postcard features an image of Mount Rushmore, and it arrived at his home earlier this month with a note attached to it saying it had been found in Green Bay on June 11th. Ramsden soon learned the card was sent in 2004. The family says they have no idea where the postcard has been hiding for the last 16 years.<\/p>\n
\u27a2 The \u201cPirates of the Caribbean\u201d are getting ready to set sail in a whole new direction, with Margot Robbie set to star in a new version of one of Disney\u2019s biggest film franchises. Robbie, the star of \u201cSuicide Squad\u201d and \u201cI, Tonya,\u201d will head a female-driven \u201cPirates\u201d movie, which is now in the early stages of development. It marks the latest bid by Hollywood to re-imagine classic movies by casting women in the lead roles, including the 2016 reboot of \u201cGhostbusters\u201d starring Melissa McCarthy and 2018 comedy heist \u201cOcean\u2019s 8\u201d that starred Sandra Bullock and Cate Blanchett.<\/p>\n
