The Denver Post: A 24 year old man in Oklahoma City was attacked for his bologna and cheese sanwich. When he was about to add mayonnaise, the attacker came up and punched him in the mouth, grabbed the sandwich, and left. Lost blood and a swollen lip later, the man was told by the police that the sandwich was only worth 76 cents. What is happening to the world?! Beating someone up for a sandwich?! It's insane!

The Denver Post: Two great-grandmothers, ages 86 and 69, became state bowling champions! With their combined handicap of 496 pins, they won by 32 pins with a total score of 1,607! I thought I'd pick this article because I just watched an episode of Full House the other day and on "Wake Up San Francisco", they interviewed an old lady that had recently bunji jumped off a bridge. I think it's awesome that those two women still bowl at their ages, you hardly ever hear of that kind of thing around here. Never let someone tell you you're not at the right age to do something :)

The Kansas City Star: A 31 year old man was charged with one count of child abuse as a result of abusing a 10 month old baby who is now in critical condition. I don't understand how anyone could do this to someone, especially a baby. It's so sad!

  1. Anytime I see a child abuse case my heart breaks. How could anyone hurt a baby? This man even if he goes to jail for the rest of his life will never have to suffer like the poor baby had to.

  2. Megan -- Quite the breadth of reading materials here -- good for you! The bologna sandwich incident -- very funny!
    And the bowling champs -- yea! My aunts (89 and 98 respectively!) are surely proud.

    Good work, Megan. Best of luck to you!
