What Traffic? It's Dance Party Friday!
This isn't the first time we've seen this news crew pull these shenanigans on the air. The dancing traffic dude has been replaced by a new reporter and she's keeping up his act. He's still around to join her, so we now have two sideshow dancers giving us their best rhyme and Roger Rabbit, as opposed to the updates.
Another Traffic Reporter. Another Dance Party.
Is this really necessary? All we want is a stinking traffic update and lover boy in the blue blazer serves up some wiggle with a little reporting on the side. Not.
Jenny Will Pimp Yo' Ride
We've seen our share of bad white boy rappers on GiggleSugar, but along comes a North Carolina traffic reporter named Jenny who makes Blazin' Hazen look pretty darn rap-tastic. Word of advice: Don't quit your day job, Jenny. Lady Sovereign, you are not.

There were many gorgeous fashions on display last night on the red carpet at the Emmy Awards. In the first installment of our look at what the ladies wore there was a lot of black or white, but not at all basic — Amy Poehler went dark, January Jones picked a light color with a daring cutout bodice, and Chloe Sevigny had a little bit of both worlds with her polka dot number. Right now January has a slight lead in Fab's best dressed poll — who do you think deserves the title?
30 Percent Increase in Women Getting DUIs
Although men still outnumber women in drunk driving arrests by four to one, a report by the FBI for the National Highway Traffic Safety Commission shows that in the decade ending 2007, there has been a 30 percent increase in women getting arrested for driving while intoxicated.
Are women under more pressure for being the sole breadwinner in a he-cession? Are television shows encouraging them to drink more?
Starbucks Renames Several Stores
This year alone, Starbucks has put its name on everything from instant coffee to super-premium ice cream, so it comes as a surprise that the corporate coffee titan is now moving to get rid of its name. The Seattle Times reports that the company is conducting a test to remove its ubiquitous name and mermaid logo from at least three of its Seattle stores and replace it with new names that emphasize the coffeehouses' surrounding neighborhoods. The first test location is slated to reopen next week bearing the new name 15th Avenue Coffee and Tea.
