You know that identity theft protection service, LifeLock, who’s CEO is so confident in their service that he publishes his Social Security # in their advertisments?

He has had his identity stolen 13 times!

Lifelock promised in ads that its $10 monthly service would protect consumers from identity theft. The company also offered a $1 million guarantee to compensate customers for losses incurred if they became a victim after signing up for the service. The FTC called the claims bogus and accused LifeLock of operating a scam.

“In truth, the protection they provided left such a large hole … that you could drive that truck through it,” said FTC Chairman Jon Leibowitz, referring to a LifeLock TV ad showing a truck painted with Davis’s Social Security number driving around city streets.

Davis’ history as an identity-theft victim would seem to call into question the company’s ability to protect consumers from a similar fate.

I left the shower radio on. 10 hours ago. For the most part, throughout the day, I didn’t hear it because the bathroom door was closed and I was listening to music in my office on the other side of the apartment.

Until just now, when I walked out of the office to go grab some food. It was completely dark in the apartment and I could hear the faintest sounds of depressing/eerie 20s-era music in the distance. I hadn’t quite put together where the sound was coming from as I approached the living room in the dark. Suddenly, the wind pulled the bathroom door open just as the eerie music crescendoed.

Anyway, that’s why I’m showering again. Because of the poo. In my pants.

An inquisitive family have uncovered a bizarre church which has been hidden under their Victorian home in Shropshire for 100 years.

The Farla family made the discovery while investigating what was under a metre-long rectangle metal grid in their hallway.

The hole under the grid was just big enough for son Gareth, 20, to squeeze down and see what was under their living room.

And he couldn't believe his eyes when he saw the dark chapel complete with a large wooden cross on the floor.

But that was nothing compared the the shock the rest of the family got when he followed a staircase in the chapel and came out of a cupboard in the dining room.
