______________________________________________________________________________<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Here’s some new nightmare fuel for you. Animal rescuers in Britain say a couple living in Surrey spotted a python exiting their five-month-old daughter’s room recently and heading down the stairs. The child’s father called the RSPCA and local police, and the snake was eventually captured. Rescuers were eventually able to find the friendly snake’s owner and return it. The creature’s owners say the snake managed to push out an air vent in his terrarium and squeeze through the tiny hole to escape.<\/p>\n ______________________________________________________________________________<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n ENTERTAINMENT<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n The new Disney+ streaming service is trying out a bold, new strategy.\u00a0 Well, technically, it’s a bold, OLD strategy.\u00a0 They’re going to run their shows WEEKLY, instead of dropping entire seasons all at once.<\/p>\n Apparently, that means ALL their shows.\u00a0 Like the\u00a0“High School Musical”<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0reboot, the new\u00a0“Star Wars”<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0series\u00a0“The Mandalorian”<\/strong><\/em>, and all those new Marvel series.<\/p>\n So you won’t be able to binge any of them unless you wait those many, torturous weeks until all the episodes have aired before you start.\u00a0 Otherwise, you just have to tune in weekly.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n __________________________________________________________________________________________________<\/p>\n Kevin Bacon initially hated the ‘Six Degrees’ game, because he thought people were mocking him.\u00a0 He talked\u00a0about it on A-Rod’s podcast, “The Corp”<\/p>\n <\/p>\n ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n TODAY IS\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026.<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n \u2713 Good for your heart \u2013 Grapes are loaded with antioxidants.<\/p>\n \u2713 Cancer \u2013 Evidence suggests drinking dark red wine may also reduce the risk of colon, lung and prostate cancer.
