Why-Man stabbed over video game
PETERBOROUGH, Ont. — A man enraged over the online videogame World of Warcraft allegedly stabbed a neighbour in the chest sending him to hospital. “I was sitting in my house today thinking ‘should I be dead or shouldn’t I?’” said Jordan Osborne, 20, on Thursday, who was hospitalized with a stab wound to his sternum. “And it’s all over a World of Warcraft game.” Osborne alleges he was stabbed when he went to his neighbour's Peterborough, Ont., apartment on Wednesday after hearing an argument. “I was telling him, there is no need for you to be freaking out about World of Warcraft. It’s just a game,” Osborne said, while his neighbour fought with a friend who was visiting and some other players over his headset. “He said, ‘It’s not just a game, it’s my life.’” That’s when the man grabbed his throat, punched him in the face and stabbed him in the chest, Osborne said. “Like they say, it takes over your life, man.”
Wow- Funeral home to open on-site Starbucks
Just because friends and family are grieving a late loved one doesn't mean they wouldn't appreciate a latte. They'll soon be able to buy one at Robinson Funeral in Easley, S.C., which announced it will open a Starbucks on its premises later this summer, reported CBS 7. Coffee has always accompanied coffins in the Robinson family business: both were for sale at the general mercantile store, established in 1875, that later became the funeral home and crematory, according to the company website. The coffee shop will be part of a new wing being added to the building. Starbucks will install the equipment later this month and the franchise is expected to open in August, the report said. Funeral-goers who eschew $5 coffee can still get the home-brewed stuff for free. And, yes, should you find yourself walking past the funeral home and craving a caffeine kick, the Starbucks will be open to the public.
