Raccoon Connected to Elaborate Car Theft Ring
Raccoon Connected to Elaborate Car Theft Ring
Jimmy “The Raccoon” Spinozio, a raccoon crime lord and patriarch of Boston, MA’s Spinozio family, has been connected by law enforcement to a ring of chop shops closed last fall.
“The Raccoon has been on our watch list for three years,” said Agent Tom Spravel, of the FBI’s mob crimes division. "We now have evidence that connects him to the chop shops closed last year and to at least 10 incidences of grand theft auto.“
There is speculation that Spinozio is already in FBI custody and has turned state’s witness.

Cat Astounds World With Scrabble Play
Cat Astounds World With Scrabble Play
A cat from Inglewood, NJ has shocked the board game playing world by showing an aptitude for the popular word game Scrabble.
“I mean, as a Scrabble player, she’s pretty mediocre,” said Inglewood Scrabble Player’s Club president Skeeter Brinkman. "Words like CAT and DOG aren’t going to get you very many points. But she’s a cat, you know? It’s pretty impressive that she can spell at all.“

Critics Praise Puppy’s One-Dog Show
Critics Praise Puppy’s One-Dog Show
A performance art piece conceived, directed and starring a puppy named Daphne has received wide critical acclaim in recent weeks.
“It’s an incredibly powerful piece of work,” says Darren Zhu, theater critic for Time Out New York. “It really captures the struggles we all face, whether you’re an adorable puppy or not.”
But the show’s producers are worried it might be a tough sell to the public.
“The art house crowd seems to really be into it,” says Barry Gloster, who raised some capital for the production. “But I’m not sure we’ll be able to recoup the full cost in ticket sales.”
