A Naked Man Attacks His Girlfriend During a Political Debate . . . After a Game of Strip Beer Pong:

 
 
 
19-year-old Jamar Darnell Thomas of Athens, Georgia was playing BEER PONG with his girlfriend at her apartment.  And apparently it wasn't just regular beer pong . . . they were playing STRIP BEER PONG.

 

 

Jamar lost . . . so he stripped down naked.  And while he was naked and drunk, he and his girlfriend started having a political debate.  Or, as he described it, quote, "talking about Democrats and Republicans."

 

 

It got intense, things escalated, and apparently his girlfriend SLAPPED HIM and he pushed her into a door.  The girlfriend's roommate called the cops.

 

 

When they got there, Jamar was still naked.  He was arrested for battery and criminal damage to property. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Social Networks Save the Day:  Twitter Found a Stolen Dog . . . and Facebook Got a Girl a New Tuba: 

 

 

Social networks . . . is there anything they can't do? Check out these two recent examples . . .

 

 

Twitter SAVES DOGS:  75-year-old Philomena Hynes had her pet spaniel, Ted, stolen on December 8th.  Police tweeted about the stolen dog . . . and people re-tweeted it more than 53,000 times.            

 

 

The thieves realized someone was going to spot the dog if they held onto it . . . so they actually returned it to Philomena four days later. 

 

 

And Facebook can GIVE the GIFT of MUSIC:  Tara Fayazi is a junior at the Eastman School of Music in Rochester, New York.  She's always wanted her own tuba . . . but they cost $13,000.  So she borrowed one from the school.   

 

For the last 11 months, her friends have gotten donations on Facebook . . . and last Monday night, they presented her with her OWN tuba. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Six Common Traits of People With Great Credit

 

 

#1.)  People with great credit are not debt-free.  On average, the highest FICO score-holders carry SEVEN credit cards.

 

 

#2.)  But they don't carry many balances.  Typically, between credit accounts and loans, they'll have about four debt payments a month.

 

 

#3.)  Two-thirds of them have less than $8,500 in total debt.  That excludes mortgages, but includes car loans.  Most of them use less than 7% of their available credit.

 

 

#4.)  They ALWAYS pay on time.  Payment history accounts for 35% of your FICO score.  And 96% of the highest scorers have NO missed payments on their credit report.  The rest have none in the past four years.

 

 

#5.)  Some of them have messed up before.  One out of 100 has had debts go to collections.  And a few . . . about one in 9,000 . . . have even had bankruptcies.

 

 

#6.)  They keep the same accounts and rarely open new ones.  The AVERAGE age of a high scorer's oldest account is 25 YEARS.  The average age of all accounts is 11 years.
