A 43-year-old dad in Florida recently got on Snapchat, because his nephew wanted him to.\u00a0 And this is what happened.\u00a0 On Tuesday, he thought it would be funny to do a video where he tried to\u00a0sell\u00a0his seven-month-old baby at a pawn shop.\u00a0 But the owner called the cops, and the dad ended up on the local news.\u00a0 Then when he called the police to straighten it out, dozens of cops showed up at his house.\u00a0 He’s not facing charges.<\/p>\n
______________________________________________________________________________<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n A woman living in Evanston, Illinois was preparing to unload her washing machine when she found a snake slithering among the wet clothing. She called for help on Wednesday (May 8th) after discovering the creature. Local officers safely captured the very clean snake and took it to the Chicago Exotics Animal Hospital. One responding officer added, “I could smell it and could tell that it had actually been through a cycle. Smelled like Downy.” The animal turned out to be a pet named Penelope that escaped from her owner, who lives in Kamencic. The snake was returned to its owner.<\/p>\n ______________________________________________________________________________<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n ENTERTAINMENT<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Comedy legend\u00a0TIM CONWAY<\/strong>\u00a0died yesterday.\u00a0 He was 85.\u00a0 Conway became a star on\u00a0“The Carol Burnett Show”<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0in the ’70s, but might be better known to your kids from\u00a0“SpongeBob SquarePants”<\/strong><\/em>, where he did the voice of Mermaid Man’s sidekick, Barnacle Boy.<\/p>\n ————————————————————————————————————————–<\/p>\n <\/p>\n George Clooney was on Kimmel last night, and said guys ask him to be their best man a lot.\u00a0 He lies and tells them he’s bad luck.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n —————————————————————————————————————————<\/p>\n Stock up on tissues, because \u201cThis Is Us\u201d has been renewed for a fourth, fifth and sixth season.

University of Colorado researchers found more than 50 percent of cannabis users said weed motivated them to exercise, and about 80 percent reported using the drug before hitting the gym.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Also, 67 percent said they smoked weed both before and after working out. Those who got high within hours of exercising logged 43 more minutes of activity each week compared to participants who didn’t time workouts around drug use. People credited cannabis with making exercise more enjoyable and improving recovery.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The scientists say this all suggests that smoking weed may tone down pain perception, and add, “we also know that the receptors cannabis binds to in the brain are very similar to the receptors that are activated naturally during the runners high.”<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Be cautious though, as there’s not enough evidence that shows smoking weed is safe.<\/p>\n _________________________________________________________________________________<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/u><\/u><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n WEDNESDAY MAY 15TH<\/sup> \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n TODAY\u2019S BIRTHDAYS <\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n [63] Dan Patrick, TV sportscaster<\/p>\n [38] Jamie-Lynn Sigler, Actress (\u2018Meadow Soprano\u2019 on \u201cThe Sopranos\u201d 1999-2007)<\/p>\n ——————————————————————————————————————————-<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Boston Bruins 2, Carolina Hurricanes 1 — Boston leads 3 games to 9<\/p>\n Tonight\u2026.\u00a0 San Jose vs St. Louis\u00a0 (Series tied at 1)<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n NBA<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n Golden State Warriors 116, Portland Trail Blazers 94 — Golden State leads 1 game to 0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n MLB<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n Toronto\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 San Francisco\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 3<\/p>\n Houston\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 11\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Detroit\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 4<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n _____________________________________________________________________________________<\/p>\n MAREN MORRIS’ RISKY SINGLE PAYS OFF\u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n Never one to play it safe,\u00a0Maren Morris<\/strong>\u00a0says she was unsure about how her latest hit, “Girl,” would be received at country radio, but as the song sits inside the Top 15 on the charts and climbing, she tells us that living on the edge has sort of become her comfort zone.\u00a0[“‘Girl’ just felt like it was boundary-less, genre-wise, and it was emotional and I kind of love operating where I just scare the hell out of myself and take a risk, and I feel like all of my songs at radio have been risky but in the last year or so have really started to pay off.”]<\/p>\n Maren’s “Girl” video is up for Video and Female Video of the Year at next month’s\u00a0CMT Music Awards<\/em>.
