PETER SHANKMAN

Comes from the Great Falls Tribune, covering Great Falls and North/Central Montana: "A Flying Elvi Suffered A Broken Pelvi" That’s the diagnosis for Paul Moran, a member of the Flying Elvi, a skydiving troupe of Elvis impersonators. Moran misjudged a Friday night landing at Glacier Peaks Casino’s official grand opening in Browning and crashed into the ground at about 50 miles per hour, said Gary Green, casino manager. Props to Sonja Lee, who covered the story.

I, on the other hand, get caught proving it. A lot. I love my job. Props to T-mobile and Danger for allowing me to do it from anywhere. Even on a ride up to altitude. (Was answering a reporter on a query about a client, btw.)

Standing in line at Chase when the teller and a customer start getting into it- The shit went DOWN at Chase on 57th and 6th! With the proliferation of cameraphones, we’re going to see more and more and more of this. This was the highlight of my day. Chase: Where the right relationship is… I’LL KICK YOUR FREAKIIN’ ASS!! My bet is  that as camera phones become more and more commonplace, employers are going to implement training to teach customer service reps that a camera could be ANYWHERE.

From Gawker. What happens when you type in "Media Whore" into Google Maps.

This is the kind of stuff the army should be promoting – if for nothing else, to show that the human spirit of fun never dies.
