No more quack-heads in Buc-ee’s
The popular gas station chain Buc-ee’s has received some controversial publicity after banning a man for shopping with his service animal.
Justin Wood and his service duck, Wrinkle, made many customers smile while they were peacefully shopping, but Buc-ee’s management did not like the idea of a duck being in the store.
With this, Wood said that it was a service animal, but the employees said that if it were a dog, that it would be on a leash, but a duck can fly away from the control of the owner.
Wood offered to show three documents stating that the duck was a service animal, but the management would not be persuaded, and told Wood that there were police waiting for him outside.
When Wood spoke with the police, they informed him that the chain had requested that he be banned from all locations, and any entrance into their stores would be considered trespassing.
Wood posted a video about this unusual incident on his YouTube profile “SeDUCKtive.”
This find can blow people away!
What was found in a Bellevue, Washington garage was the bomb. Literally.
It wasn’t until a homeowner passed away that a Cold War era missile was found in the home’s garage.
The police responded to a report of a military-grade rocket in a home across Lake Washington from Seattle. Officials said that the Air Force Museum in Dayton, Ohio called to offer to donate the item.
But, the museum was too late, as the weapon was purchased in an estate sale.
Luckily, after investigation, bomb squad members found that the AIR-2 Genie had no warhead and no rocket fuel, so the artifact was not an explosive hazard.

Thrift stores are a-head of their time
Thrift stores are often filled with unusual finds, but one Florida store has a find that might mess with customers’ heads.
A skull was found on display that has human origins.
It wasn’t known to be a human skull until an anthropologist customer came across it in the Halloween section.
The thrift store acquired the skull when it purchased the contents of a storage unit which had been put up for auction.
Now detectives, law enforcement, and medical examiners are all working to find answers and to further examine the skull.

Kindergarteners took “twin day” too seriously
Seeing double has become normal in suburban Philadelphia, for the Colonial School District has 17 sets of twins in their Kindergarten year.
With seven of the sets going to Ridge Park Elementary School, six going to Whitemarch Elementary School, and the remaining four going to Plymouth Elementary, this is the largest number of twins that the district has seen.
The district refers to them as the “twin-dergarteners” and say that the students are excited to go into kindergarten with their built in buddies.

Punxsutawny Phil is burrowed in family
Punxsutawney Phil, the infamous Groundhog Day groundhog, is not just a holiday figure but a father figure.
The “weather-predicting” Phil and his groundhog-wife Phyllis have become the parents of two kits, according to a Facebook post by their handlers in Pennsylvania. The genders and given names were not mentioned.
Besides the well-known myth that he can predict the weather, it is also believed by some that Phil will live forever as his official age is 138 years old. These myths have led to people wondering if his kids will possess the same powers.
But the idea of the children being immortal was shut down, because in the end, there is only one Punxsutawney Phil.
