Teen in Hospital After Riding Flaming Skateboard – Funny as this story is, it only get’s better when the paper has gems like this, “Skateboarding tricks involving fire are becoming trendy among teens.” That’s right – trendy. A kid covered his board in lighter fluid and set fire to it before attempting to ride the board… genius.

More Reason To Like Jeremy Clarkson – Amazing story about Jeremy Clarkson’s chance meeting with video game maker, Kazunori Yamauchi. Yamauchi’s company created the Gran Turismo series of games and was at the Top Gear track plotting it for the next version of the game… Clarkson was doing rehearsals for a show and happened to be wearing a t-shirt his wife bought him (seen here) bearing the most offensive four letter word. Unfortunately, due to a lack of English, the company website and promotional material contained the photo of Clarkson, Yamauchi and said tee shirt for days before it was picked up.

Laptop Thief Set for Public Humiliation – A kid who stole a laptop is in for a world of hurt after tracking and remote desktop software allowed authorities, IT experts and the laptops owners to watch the thief’s compulsive porn searching activities. By keylogging and automatic screen shots the thief was tracked down but not before he’d been caught on the seedier side of the net. It’ll be funny when the evidence is presented.

IHateHolding – There’s nothing worse than calling a bank or phone company, entering endless account numbers and PIN’s only to have the reconfirm your identity and account number when your call is answered. Save time by bookmarking this site where users are adding shortcuts to a list of numbers to get a person on the phone ASAP.

And Finally – When did Jamie-Lynn Sigler go from being Meadow Soprano to being smoking hot? No one told me! Few more hot pics below the cut – have a good Monday!
