Smart TV outsmarts Munroe Falls burglar

flix1

From Cleveland.com:

“MUNROE FALLS, Ohio — Netflix helped lead detectives to a television stolen during an August break-in.

A couple returned to their home Aug. 28 in the 300 block of Hunter Avenue after a weeklong vacation to find that someone broke in through a glass front door.

Burglars stole speakers, a CD rack, 3-D glasses, an airsoft pellet gun, jewelry valued at $700 and a 55-inch Samsung smart TV with Internet streaming capabilities.

About a month later, someone accessed the couple’s Netflix account that was linked to the stolen TV. Munroe Falls police traced the Internet address used in the log-in to a man living on Inman Street in Akron.”

Netflix and NOT chill, amirite?

Bummer for the burglar, that’s one hell of a haul for a B&E. But you gotta be smarter than the TV man. Pawning that jewelry could have paid for seven years of your own Netflix account. This is right up there with the guy who smoked so much weed he called the cops on himself. Bold prediction? Cops won’t exist in 50 years. We’ll have no need for law enforcement if the devolution of our nation’s criminals continues like this. If you can’t stand the heat, get the hell out of the kitchen fellas. And drop the microwave on your way out.

On a related note, this couple sounds like a couple I need to party with.

 

 

 

I Went On A Podcast And Didn’t Totally Embarrass Myself

Listen here

So as some of you may know I went and chopped it up with Craig Lyndall from Waiting For Next Year (the OG’s of the Cleveland sports blog scene) last night on his podcast. We talked about sports media today, blogs, media in Cleveland, “OIC” stuff, and the Cavs.

Full admission- I was nervous as hell and truly thought I would turn into a mute once the pod started rolling. Thankfully by some act of God I was able to speak and have actual words fall out of my mouth.

Go check it out.

I’ve listened to the first 10 minutes so far and all I could think of was this line from Beanie from Old School as he’s wrapping up his speech at Frank’s wedding:

I’m not a talker. I’m not a talker.

Big S/O and thanks to Craig for having me. If I ever get invited back on I’ll be sure to bring way more hot takes.

PS- Really need to work on not mumbling “yeah”  every time Craig says something. C’mon Mike, act like you’ve been there before.
