This story is crazy. If you’re going on a hike this weekend make sure your phone is charged up.
A guy near L.A. went hiking this week and got stranded overnight. First problem, don’t go hiking alone if possible. Anyway, he had texted a photo to a friend of his legs dangling off a rock overlooking a canyon on the trail he was on. After hours went by he was all the sudden lost and his phone was dying. So rescuers started searching the area using the photo he had sent in case anyone knew the area. Then a random guy on the internet named Ben Kuo came to the rescue.
Ben actually has a hobby where he enjoys looking at random photos to see if he can figure out where they were taken. Perfect man for the job in this situation right?! So Ben began working on the case and figured out the general area, told the cops, and they eventually found the hiker! Nice work, Ben. What a great ending.

Perfect mystery for a Friday heading into the weekend. Why do wine bottles have that dent in the bottom? It actually has a name too, called a punt. The punt makes the wine bottles stronger when the pressure is put in by the cork. That way, your favorite wine doesn’t explode all over the place. It also doubles as a fancy type handle for servers to hold onto the bottle with their thumb in there while they are pouring you a glass tableside.
Cheers!

Every Friday, Anna & Raven look to a fortune cookie to let them know what their weekend has in store for them. What’s worse though, a bad fortune or a stale cookie? Hopefully they didn’t get either!

What do you consider to be “on time”? Raven is the kind of person who shows up 15 minutes early for everything, and expects you to show up at least 5 minutes early! But it turns out that other countries have a very different idea of what qualifies as “late”. It’s a good thing Raven doesn’t live in the Middle East… (:30)

This story is definitely good for Connecticut tourism.
If you watch Wheel of Fortune you may have seen this happen on the show. After solving a puzzle the contestant had a “trip” he had won from one of his spins. When the revealed the trip was to CONNECTICUT for a stay at the Madison Beach Hotel and not some tropical vacation the look on his face was amazing.
Don’t get me wrong Madison is very nice and he will have an excellent time. But you have to thing when he picked up that “trip” piece that we was off to somewhere exotic like Hawaii or the Bahamas.
