Robin Williams: Everybody else is working on the Atomic Bomb, while the Jamaicans are preparing to launch the Atomic Bong! Instead of devastation, there will be celebration, man!

Agreed, but that's rarely worth the high possibility of the injury or death of innocent bystanders. Protect and Serve should be the motto, not Enforce At All Costs.

Cleveland baseball used to be the Indians, the logo and mascot were pretty bad. Changed it a few years ago to the Guardians, after some local famous statues.

My team would use this story in our training classes for lifeguards. Even small kids, when in the grip of panic, are far stronger and more dangerous then we think, and tragedies like this one can be avoided or minimized with better awareness

5. If the Uhaul breaks down, don't panic. Mine was much older (apparently), and it shot a bolt into the engine housing hard enough to knock a spark plug out. UHaul roadside assistance was easy to work with, they put me in a nearby hotel, ubered me around, got the truck fixed overnight, and back on the road with a 12 hour delay. A little buffer time was used up, that was it.

4. Have some form of skin protection for your left arm. It's going to get a lot of sunburn if you wear short sleeves, and a folded towel on the edge of the door makes it much more comfortable to rest your elbow on the door frame by the window.

3. A lumbar support cushion and butt pillow are absolutely worth the investment. So is a cup holder phone mount on a neck, which you can get at most truck stops for maybe $20-30

You'll do great! I just did a similar move, 2700 miles in a UHaul about 6 weeks ago. Here's a few tips I wished I'd known. 1, UHauls don't have cruise control, so wear comfy heavy shoes. 2. The engine is louder than expected, so I used ear buds for audiobooks. I used my phone for both GPS and audio, and I wished I had a charge splitter that would let me charge while listening on cable earbuds, or at least 2 sets of Bluetooth headphones that I could alternate listening and charging.

He deliberately shot a rubber shotgun round into the back of a female Australian reporter covering the LA ICE riots, and was caught on film.

That is an incredibly well socialized and handled birb. Those huge hands coming down right next to it and it barely flinches.
