Pooping in a Bucket May Add Years to Your Life

Pooping in a Bucket May Add Years to Your Life UnAssociated Press May 18, 2018 An unscientific study by two guys from Toledo is raising eyebrows around the scientific community. It seems that pooping in a bucket, rather than in a toilet or on the floor, can actually add up to a decade to your lifespan! No one is sure how it works, but the study came out in writing and it was double-spaced, so it has to be true! People around the country are "jumping on the bandwagon;" as bucket sales have skyrocketed by 423% since the report first hit the New Bedford Journal of Medicine.

Light Rail Racial Disparity

In a recent report that states that African-American and American Indian LRT Riders are more likely to be arrested for not paying as opposed to Caucasian riders more likely only being "warned," an important piece of data has been left out of the equation. That being what is the racial breakdown of the people who are not paying their fares? I only ask, because statistics are really only valid when all parts are shown. Leaving out key data can skew the results. That said, this is an easy fix. From now on, no one who is caught by Metro Transit police should be given "warnings." From this moment forward, every single person, regardless of race or other demographic identity, should be arrested and prosecuted. No more warnings. There now! It's all fixed!
