David Green, 39, Norristown, Pa., pleaded guilty to burglary, done in after his DNA was matched to doo-doo on the basement stairs in the home he burgled (not explained in the story, but maybe people shouldn't go criming if they've got the runs). Times Herald (Norristown)

A movement of a few revisionist presidential historians is underway to remake Martha Washington into a red-hot mama (Bonus: George was a hunk, too). Washington Post

David Green - Come on, watch a little CSI. Why would you do that? Unless there was a large Rottweiler in the house they didn't mention.

Chimney - Maybe he was on some sleep meds. Anything that comes with a disclaimer saying "May cause sleep walking, sleep eating or sleep driving" may also cause sleep chimney sweeping.

Dog Wash: There is one of these around Crystal Beach Florida too. Different company though I think. I just saw it about 2 weeks ago and thought it was a pretty clever idea being right by a heavily populated beach that allows dogs.

Martha Washington: Bebe Neuwirth now knows what she will look like when she's old.

Stuck in chimney: Dang those Ambian!

Expat - Yes, that is common among cat-burglars. I think they even discussed this on the Sopranos the same season that Chrissy was shot.

DogPro - What ever happened to sticking the dog in the tub and fighting with it til its clean? Sure it makes a bit of a mess of the bathroom but its kind of fun, and free!

Renting women - Sign me up! I have no problem letting someone pay me to pretend I know them for a day. Any takers?

Stuck in the chimney - If any of you had ever been to Burlington Vermont you wouldn't question how he got in there, trust me. I love that town!

I can honestly say, I have never thought about how hot Martha could have been. But now, her image is going in my rolodex.

Once saw a surf band cover Painted Black at Red Square - it was really good! My friends band has gotten to play at Nectar's a couple times. Lots of memories, good times.
