A woman recently found out that her husband had been writing sweet, romantic messages in her shoes for years. 6 years! It started when she noticed something nice written on the inside tongue of her fila shoes that she got from Poshmark. She assumed it was from the previous owner… but it wasn’t. Now, her hubby has some serious brownie points, but he’s also a little disappointed in her for JUST noticing!

This morning, a man changed his mind about flying at the wrong time.

Just another story to add to list of weird events that have transpired at the one of the world’s busiest airports. Here’s a handful of them:
34 people were hurt as the result of a Blue line train crashing at the O’Hare terminus back in 2014. NTSB investigated the accident and determined that the conductor fell asleep at the controls. Believe it or not, they estimated the speed of the train to be about 25MPH at the time. That’s all it took to do that kind of damage….crazy.
Goats, sheep, and yes, even a donkey have been employed by the city’s Department of Aviation to provide a cost-effective and environmentally sustainable way to keep the many fields surrounding the runways nice and trim. Not a baaaaad idea. — [eric]

A woman was worried her dog might have a medical issue because her K9 friend kept passing gas… and it was BAD. She said it smelled worse than rotten eggs so she took her dog to the vet to see what was going on. The vet had no clues after a lot of testing. They changed the food and that didn’t fix the problem. After several weeks, and thousands of dollars in vet bills, the truth came out. Her hubby had been blaming it on the dog the entire time! She kicked him out of the house for the night and you better believe he’s paying for half the vet bills. He ended up having to go to the doctor and changing HIS diet. Karma.
