A truck full of hot dogs spills its contents on a Pennsylvania highway
Our take: Pennsylvania motorists had to navigate a meat-filled wreck after a truck carrying a load of hot dogs hit the median, causing it to spill its contents on the highway.
Crews worked hard to clean up the mess after the rush hour accident. Things were made harder when motorists showed up with mustard and relish and demanded the cleanup crews allow them to barbecue.

Denmark zoo asks people for pet donations to use as food for predators
Our take: In a story straight out of a dystopian novel, a zoon in Denmark is asking citizens who need to get rid of their pets to donate them to the zoo so they can euthanize the pets and feed them to predators housed at the zoo. Seriously. We are not making this up.
Danes are known for being unemotional and straightforward in their thought process and communications, but this is straight up wild. Imagine telling your kids it’s time to get rid of Fido or Fluffy.
They ask what’s going to happen to their furry friend. You tell them he is going to be fed to the lions at the zoo. Hopefully, mental health care for people in Denmark is not expensive. This is the stuff nightmares are made of.

A great white shark was spotted off the coast of Maine
Our take: If you have seen the movie Jaws, this story is your nightmare coming to life. A great white shark has been seen swimming off the coast of Maine. This scenario was made famous in the classic movie 50 years ago. A local fisherman was able to capture video of the shark on a drone video, calling the great fish “magnificent”.
We thought it was a little tacky that the shark had on a bib with a picture of a surfer on it while it was swimming towards the shore. Show some respect for your food!

Tip of the day – improving communication
Maintain a positive attitude and smile. Even when you are speaking on the phone, smile because your positive attitude will shine through, and the other person will know it. When you smile often and exude a positive attitude, people will respond positively to you
