So Pokemon Go launches. Huge demand. Servers crash. Nobody can get it to work for hours. How could things get any worse, the Pokemon team wonder.
Shayla Wiggins, a 19-year-old from Riverton, Wyoming, was out for a stroll trying to catch 'em all in Pokémon GO when she found something quite different than what she was looking for.

"I was trying to get a Pokémon from a natural water resource," Shayla says, explaining why she decided to jump over a fence to get to the edge of a river. Once there, she discovered not fun-loving pocket monsters, but a male corpse floating in the water, **** up. Instead of continuing to hunt for cuddly creatures, Shayla did the right thing and called 911.

Authorities say the body had been there for less than 24 hours and have yet to release any further information. Shayla says she was shaken up over the incident, as you could imagine. "I was pretty scared and cried for a while."

I really like the phrase "**** up" in the corpses description.

I've won a football. A mild consolation after the Euros at last.
But why can't I win the lottery? I rather have that. :problem:

Had an unbelieveable awesome chance encounter whilst walking back to the hotel this evening with one of the Space Invader team (artist, not the game) whilst he was reactivating one of his Invaders. Had a great chat, got some photos on my phone and what was really cool, he wanted photos of me and the family too, hope another book is published as he said we could end up in it. He'd put up a couple of other works this evening and no one else and seen him in action or at least if they had they'd not approached him so was a pretty amazing experience as we are massive fans and own a sizeable collection of his work, maps and books etc :D :D :D

when you make an agreement with some but he changes his mind to keep it with the promise to sell it to you if he should ever change his mind.

then you check another forum and find the seller offering the same item. priceless. :problem:
