FRIDAY FUN – July 24, 2020

Not so useless hacks, a Zoom-bombing kitty, and more.

In Fort Lauderdale, Florida, after receiving a call about a kangaroo running loose in the area, officers managed to capture it and place it in a squad car, the Associated Press reports. They have few clues about where the animal came from. It was turned over to the South Florida Wildlife Center.

In Greenwood, Delaware, the owner of Stargate Pizza said that while he was closing his business, he was approached outside by a subject who proceeded to display a machete and demand money. The store owner advised the suspect that he did not have any money and threw a pizza at him. This caused the suspect to flee, the Delaware State Police said in a news release.

In Eastpointe, Michigan, a gas station clerk’s mistake has made a man a millionaire. He stopped at the gas station to put air in a car tire. When he went in to get change, he also asked for $10 Lucky 7′s scratch-off ticket. The clerk handed him a $20 ticket by mistake, which turned out to be a $2 million winner. “The clerk handed me the $20 ticket by mistake. He offered to exchange it for me but something told me to keep it. I am sure glad I did!” the man said in a statement released by the Lottery.

Some of these hacks look useful, especially the one for separating egg yolks from whites. If you can’t view the below video, try https://youtu.be/nTYx-LVjHsc.
