He has the cell phone number of Erin Andrews?
DP: [During the Memphis game], you can’t be putting your hands on Erin Andrews at halftime, Coach.
BP: Erin is a terrific sideline reporter, she knows the game, but she’s also very engaging. I actually called her and texted her back, and I apologized if in any way that was unprofessional.
DP: Is texting her an NCAA violation?
BP: No, she’s not a prospect.
DP: Oh, yes, she is.
BP: She’s way out of my league when it comes to that category.
DP: You’re not even a mid-major?
BP: Absolutely not. I’m D-II.
DP: When is the last time you accidentally broke an NCAA rule?
BP: Probably sometime in this conversation.

And don’t try to stop her.
The troubled singer was apparently having a crafty fag as she sat with pals in a London eatery last week.
But when a waitress asked her to stop smoking, it’s claimed she pushed the burning ciggie into her own skin.
‘She was so out of it she didn’t feel the pain,’ an onlooker tells The Sun.
‘Everyone else looked completely stunned. The waitress covered her mouth in shock and just walked off to tell the manager. It was a horrible sight.’
Last week, Amy, 24, was snapped with a swollen infection on her face, which her spokesman said was impetigo.

Bastards.
One of the infected patients is retired airplane mechanic Michael Washington, 67, who was the first to report his infection. On the advice of his doctor, he received a routine colon exam in July at the Endoscopy Center of Southern Nevada.
In September, he started to get sick. He was losing weight fast. His urine turned dark. His stomach hurt. By January, it was clear what had happened.
Washington describes his virus as a “creeping death sentence” and worries that others will hear his story and think twice before getting preventive care they need.
In letters that began arriving this week, patients who received injected anesthesia at the endoscopy center from March 2004 to mid-January were urged to get tested for hepatitis B and C, and HIV.
Because all three viruses are transmitted by blood, they could have been passed from one patient to the next by the unsafe practices at the clinic.
And, sadly, somebody I know through the internet is affected by this story.
Let’s hope everybody is OK.

Uh-oh.
According to the U.S. officials, a Russian bomber came within three to five nautical miles and flew 2,000 feet (610 meters) above the USS Nimitz aircraft carrier and its accompanying ships.
Two U.S. F/A-18 fighters were launched to intercept the Russian aircraft and escort it out of the area, according to one defense official.
Russian bombers over the past year have increased their flights near U.S. territory and U.S. naval assets, demonstrating their long-range strike capability.
In February, two Russian bombers approached the Nimitz near Japan and one flew over the carrier, escorted by a U.S. fighter jet. That was the first Russian overflight of a U.S. carrier since 2004.
Those operations come as Russian officials say they will revive some of the military power and reach allowed to collapse with the Soviet Union.
Hello! Somebody listening out there?

That’s something this guy needed to learn.
Starnes, who has found another job, said Tuesday the incident was blown out of proportion.
“Two people lost their jobs because of it,” he said. “It’s a little ridiculous.”
Brown told the panel that Starnes used his position with the clerk’s records management office for personal gain and violated the public trust.
“We have a responsibility by law to collect for copies,” Brown said.
Starnes argued that he joked with the bakery owner’s stepmother on the phone when she requested the photo copies, suggesting she bring baked goods.
Starnes said he was in another area of the building a few weeks later when the shop owner came to collect the copies for his stepmother. Hamblin said Niccum refused money for the copies, but accepted the cookies.

Don’t leave a credit card receipt laying around.
Ostrowski said the employee, 20, told officers it was the second time that the man, later identified as Kevin Charles Taylor, 41, had exposed himself to her in as many weeks.
The first incident occurred as Taylor drove past the restaurant’s drive-up window, Ostrowski said. On Monday, he exposed himself inside the store, Ostrowski said.
Ostrowski didn’t know if Taylor had purchased a beverage before or after he exposed himself, but officers were able to identify him Monday thanks to a credit card receipt he’d left, Ostrowski said.
Investigators telephoned Taylor, who has a history of indecent exposure arrests, and asked him to come into the Redding Police Department for an interview, Ostrowski said.

Don’t let it get out.
The turtle actually is a tortoise – a huge tortoise. “It was heavy,” said Thrasher. “My nephew and I did manage to get it into the truck.”
Beth soon showed up. “I stopped dead in my tracks,” she said. “I mean this thing is huge.” Beth figured the tortoise weighs about 150 pounds. “This is the first we’ve had to deal with a tortoise of this size.”
After some checking on the Internet, Beth discovered the tortoise, which the shelter workers named Tippy, is an African Sulcata. According to Peteducation.com, the African Sulcata tortoise (Geochelone sulcata), or African Spurred tortoise, is surpassed in size only by the giant tortoises of the Galapagos Islands and Seychelles.
Palacios said she’s thrilled Goliath will be reunited with his owner. “The woman said she thinks her husband may have left a gate open,” said Palacios. “They’ll be here to pick him up this afternoon.”

What in the holy hell was the point of this article?
Watkins says the reason stores — called contract postal units — don’t have the smaller stamps is that they’re not motivated to order them until closer to the time of the next price hike. That will be May 12.
“When it comes closer to price changes, we send letters to our contract postal units encouraging them to purchase more one- and two-cent stamps,” Watkins says. He says the postal service believes the “forever stamps,” those we buy at a supposed fixed price that will last throughout eternity, will eventually solve the problem. He says the agency sold 5 billion last year.
So where are the stores that sell stamps? “We need to do a better job of publicizing where they are,” Watkins acknowledges.
When I next buy my set of “forever stamps,” I’ll have paid my money, upfront, for something I don’t know when I’ll be using. Investment counselors say that’s a dumb deal.
In an economy that nudges us more toward the Internet all the time, why would I pay with more inconvenience, more gas money and more of my ever-decreasing time to use a product that gets increasingly hard to use?
