Marty and The News

Took a little break. I mention it because no one would have noticed if I didn't mention it.

New time.

Most that can fit, can't find the entrance and go home
Black Friday Walmart strike brings much needed attention to another Walmart strike that has been taking place for 6 months. Everybody knows the backstory behind the Black Friday Walmart strike, but what you don't know about is the strike that's been taking place since May at a Walmart in Georgia. The Georgia Walmart has the smallest front entrance of any Walmart in the world. It's one of the smallest entrances in the entire retail industry. Walmart employees have been trying to get a bigger entrance at the store ever since it opened in 2008. Earlier this year, employees threatened to go on strike after a study showed that several of the employees and most of the customers were unable to fit through the small entrance. Those who can't fit, must go to the back and go in at one of the loading docks.

Barnes & Noble CEO claims that he still reads books. It's been believed for quite some time that William J. Lynch Jr., Barnes & Noble CEO, hasn't read a book since 1993. Friends of Lynch have know for years that he doesn't read books. "I just wish he'd come out and tell the world," said one close friend. "Be true to himself and stop lying to the world." Lynch has made one small step in coming out. He now says he doesn't read physical books anymore. "Only digital books on my Nook," said Lynch. "I'm reading all the time though." "He's full of shit," says Lynch's son, William Lynch III. "He doesn't even listen to audiobooks."

Mom in Maine tarnishes hazing. A mom in Maine is upset and claims that her son was sodomized as part of a hazing ritual performed by some of the kids on her son's soccer team. That's not hazing. It's called rape and sexual assault. Calling it hazing is a slap in the face to hazing and rape.

If it's illegal to pretend a Taser is your penis, than every man, and most women, who have ever held a Taser is in trouble.

That's it. That's the news.
