thought the felony charge was kinda harsh for stealing soda, here the rest of the story. Have you ever stolen soda from a restaurant? Maybe the cashier forgot to charge you for a fountain drink but still gave you a cup, or you ordered water but upon filling your cup, realized it had a terrible funky taste and switched to Diet Coke instead. Point being: As far as crimes go, it's a pretty easy and seemingly innocuous one to commit.

So it's not hard to feel at least a tiny bit of empathy for an 18-year-old dude in Springdale, Arkansas who was arrested earlier this week after his little water-for-soda switcheroo went terribly awry. According to ABC 7, Cody Morris and two friends ordered three large waters at a McDonald's drive-thru; they then poured out the contents and went inside the restaurant to fill their cups with soda. The manager had apparently seen this abuse of the free-refill system one too many times, and decided to call the police to report the incident as a robbery.


Morris's two friends returned their drinks, but he wasn't going down without a fight: He fled with his beverage and, according to police, "hit the manager twice with his car when the man tried to block his escape." His vehicle was later found parked outside a nearby bowling alley, where he was apprehended and charged with felony robbery; he was soon released on $2,500 bond, which is coincidentally the cost of about 1,700 large sodas at McDonald's.

Today's Featured Article - Chores - by Frank Young. The ceaseless passing of time! It is at once our friend and our enemy. It measures our progress and it makes us old. Like most features of our life, few things are all good or all bad, and most such judgments depend on our own perspective or viewpoint. In our particular hobby, we enjoy the nostalgic return to the days of our youth as we recreate many of the scenes that took place on the family farm that served as the stage for the first few acts of the play that is our live ...
