When you take little kids on vacation, you expect mishaps here or there -- a scraped knee, a fever -- but you never expect that your child might get attacked and dragged away by a hungry mountain lion! Maybe parents should be thinking a lot more about potential risks like these and go through life with some type of sharp blade. By now you may have heard about the 6-year-old boy who was attacked by a mountain lion while walking with his mom to their room at Big Bend State Park in West Texas, and if you haven't, I'm sure you just screamed WHOA! like I did when I first read the story. Of all the random, freaky things to happen.

Senator John Kerry is so lucky! He broke his nose playing hockey and it came out looking even better than before. The distinguished 68-year-old senator from Massachusetts didn't have a terrible nose before -- slightly Roman, longish, and prominent -- but it worked well on his tall, stately carriage. I guess that hockey stick that he supposedly got in the face hit him in just the right spot, because for some reason, the beakish look is gone, his nose is more defined, and there's a slight upturn now.

See the "before" picture below.

There's a new trend where lovesick teens are engaging in risky email password sharing with boyfriends and girlfriends as the ultimate sign of trust and disclosure that they are not cheating on them. Interesting. Don't these kids watch TV? Don't they know that this is a disaster waiting to happen? As soon as these 14-year-olds break up -- and most of them will break up -- their ex is going to be hacking into their accounts and broadcasting all their private messages to the world on Facebook and the web. While this is obviously a very bad idea for teens, email password sharing takes the discussion in an entirely different direction when talking about whether adults who are married or in committed relationships should also be sharing passwords.

No way! But for an entirely different reason.
