Ever run a lemonade stand when you were a kid???
TERRE HAUTE, Ind. - Call it a lemonade standoff. A girl whose lemonade stand was robbed of $17.50 chased the suspect into a nearby home and called police, who spent nearly an hour trying to coax the man into surrendering. "The guy came up and was, like, 'Give me your money,'" said 12-year-old Dominique Morefield, who was running the lemonade stand with a group of friends. "I was shocked. It was just my immediate reaction to chase after him." Dominique dashed after the man who ran into a house, and then she called police. Officers eventually persuaded Steve Tryon, 18, to come outside after 45 minutes and arrested him on a preliminary felony charge of robbery. Tryon made an initial appearance in Superior Court on Tuesday and was ordered to be held in the Vigo County Jail on $50,000 bond. He will be formally charged Friday, county Prosecutor Terry Modesitt said. A telephone message seeking comment was left at the office of Michael Wright, a public defender assigned to represent Tryon. "I didn't think anyone would come up to a lemonade stand and steal. That's really low," 12-year-old Fred Erstine said. The kids said they would continue to sell lemonade, but with an adult's supervision. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- How about another silly news story. Man orders pet python to attack police officers BRIDGEPORT, Conn. - Bridgeport police say they arrested a city man after he ordered his pet to attack two officers. Lucky for them that 9-foot-long pythons aren't very obedient. Police Lt. James Viadero says 21-year-old Victor Rodriguez was charged with threatening police and disorderly conduct after Monday's incident. No one was hurt. Officers were called to Rodriguez's apartment on a report that he was threatening his girlfriend with the pet reptile. Viadero says that when the building superintendent opened the apartment door for the officers, Rodriguez allegedly threatened them with the snake and told it to "Get them!" Rodriguez and his pet were both taken away: Rodriguez to jail on a $10,000 bond, and the albino python to the city's animal control shelter.

I'll never get back the 30 seconds of my life that it took to read those articles. Why anyone calling themselves a journalist would take the time to write stories about these events is beyond me. What happened? There wasn't anything to write today about Angelina's pregnancy or Jessica Simpson's love life?
