Thanks to Dan for the tip!

From the Post here:

Some wealthy Manhattan moms have figured out a way to cut the long lines at Disney World — by hiring disabled people to pose as family members so they and their kids can jump to the front, The Post has learned.

The “black-market Disney guides” run $130 an hour, or $1,040 for an eight-hour day.

“My daughter waited one minute to get on ‘It’s a Small World’ — the other kids had to wait 2 1/2 hours,” crowed one mom, who hired a disabled guide through Dream Tours Florida.

“You can’t go to Disney without a tour concierge,’’ she sniffed. “This is how the 1 percent does Disney.”

The woman said she hired a Dream Tours guide to escort her, her husband and their 1-year-old son and 5-year-old daughter through the park in a motorized scooter with a “handicapped” sign on it. The group was sent straight to an auxiliary entrance at the front of each attraction.

Disney allows each guest who needs a wheelchair or motorized scooter to bring up to six guests to a “more convenient entrance.”

A thousand bucks per day and a free trip to Disney? If I was disabled, this would be a dream job. But as a Pro Tip, if you have to wait 2.5 hours for the Small World ride, shoot yourself in the face. You are doing Disney wrong. There’s a thing called fast passes and magic hours.

From the Charleston Gazette here:

22-year-old Dalton Newhouse of Oak Hill, and an accomplice, used a rifle to shoot down a high-tension power transmission line, police said. They planned to strip the line of its copper wiring and sell it.

When Newhouse picked up the wire, it killed him instantly, according to a news release. His accomplice was identified as Charles Raymond Norris, 22, of Oak Hill, who was arrested Wednesday.

Norris was charged with attempting to commit a felony, conspiracy to commit a felony and disruption of a public utility.

He was arraigned in Fayette County Magistrate Court, where he posted his own bail.

Appalachian Power spokesman Phil Moye said about 50 customers were without electricity for three hours. He called copper thefts a “tragedy” and urged would-be thieves to think twice.

Its a real shame if this idiot left family behind but he really got what he deserved. Man, this blog post just reminded me that I need to get batteries for my Blu-Ray remote.

And libs love to call Fox News “Faux News.” The ones that are faking it is CNN.

From TPM here:

In a statement provided to TPM, Ingrid Newkirk, president of People For The Ethical Treatment of Animals, described Christie’s killing of the spider as a thoughtless act.

“He probably did it without thinking. Some people put the spider outside, but spiders are often scary to people, and that can prevent them from pondering their worth,” Newkirk said.

Its hilarious that PETA should condemn squashing a spider. After all, they regularly kill animals and even illegally dump them in grocery store dumpsters. Newkirk will condemn a Republican governor but is silent on the abuses of her own employees.
