Jasons Segment:

WACKY-BUT-TRUE: LONELY OLD GUY KEEPS CALLING 911 _ An elderly man in the UK who repeatedly called for an ambulance complaining of a sore throat was jailed for six months. The 76-ear-old dialed 911 (999) a total of 42 times. On one occasion he dialed emergency services and demanded paramedics come immediately — when one was already in his house.

WACKY-BUT-TRUE: VANDALS BROKE CAR WINDOW WITH FROZEN STEAK _ Some vandals use crowbars or bricks to smash car windows, but a guy in Spain used a frozen steak. A laptop and other valuables were taken. The frozen steak was left behind on the car’s front seat.

WACKY-BUT-TRUE: WOMAN KILLED CHICKEN IN SUBWAY _ A woman in China was told she couldn’t bring a live chicken on the city’s subway system, so she slaughtered the bird on the spot.

WACKY-BUT-TRUE: TAEKWONDO FAMILY TO THE RESCUE _ When a family arrived at their business in Katy, Texas, after lunch, they heard a scream from the business next door, a cell phone shop. The family — mom, dad, and their three adult kids — rushed next door to find a man on top of a female employee. Dad took care of the attacker single-handedly. The others didn’t need to help, even though they were all fourth-degree black belts in taekwondo. Yep, next to the cell phone store is a taekwondo instruction school, and every family member is an instructor. Sheriff deputies arrived and arrested a 19-year-old for assault.

Mindy's Segment:

THINGS EVERYONE SHOULD KNOW BY AGE 40

• Nothing beats a good night’s sleep

• One’s “career path” can include multiple forks in the road

• If you’re not a “people person,” you’ll probably never be one

• When to talk and when to listen

Exercise is a wonderful antidote to just about anything

❑ The people Down Under love their coffee so much that Doritos Australia has introduced a coffee flavor to their famous line of chips. “Doritos Coffee” was supposedly created to help Aussies get over the “3pm slump”. (That’s the time coffee shops in the country typically close their doors.) 300 bags of limited-edition Doritos Coffee chips will be given away to fans. An online reviewer who managed to get his hands on a bag came away impressed.
