From The Big Picture comes this amusing photo of a person dressed as Australia’s Prime Minister Kevin Rudd sitting on the beach and waking up with water around him. The stunt was organized by Oxfam Australia on September 21, 2009 and was aimed to bring awareness to global climate change.
Jeff Sabold of Automotive Concepts recently dialed 911 to figure out where the heck he had driven to in his expensive Ferrari. It turns out that Jeff was under the influence of alcohol at the time and had parked his car over some train tracks while talking to a 911 operator. Sure enough, a train started barrelling towards him and Jeff had to watch as his Ferrari got trashed by an oncoming train.
Jeff was booked for DWI.
Listen to the audio transcript of the call above. Hilarious!
Ellen DeGeneres had a very funny old lady named Gladys Hardy call in to her show to suggest some rearrangements on the set. Ellen apparently like the caller so much that she called Gladys back, and the resulting conversation on the phone is very funny. I really hope Gladys becomes a regular on the Ellen show because that lady is good. Real good.
It’s not easy to find and certainly not published, but Amazon.com actually has a direct customer service phone number that you can call to resolve issues with an order. That customer service phone number is: 1-800-201-7575.
You can also use Amazon.com’s call-back request form, but I’ve never tried it and I don’t know how quickly they call you back. I called the number above and was talking with a person about my order in less than 1 minute.
