News u can use

If the 10 p.m. news can keep my wife awake for more than five minutes, it must be riveting. If it can make her giggle uncontrollably, then it's worth a rewind of the good ol' DVR. What got her laughing? It was a report on fake parking tickets in Boulder. Apparently, these hucksters got everything right until they decided to add some commentary at the bottom of the tickets including the phrase, "Remember: Things could be worse. Get over yourself." Call me crazy, but I like the whole ticket/fortune cookie idea. Your fortune says: Today a tall, uniformed man will be unable to resist your presence."
