The Russians get all the good names

You know the game where you put a single bullet in a six-shooter and pull the trigger to see if you die? Yeah, that game is for pussies.

It’s way cooler now to do the same sort of thing, only with a car and a busy intersection. “Russian road roulette” is catching on in Bulgaria. All you do is bet on whether or not you can make it through a busy intersection running a red light, without hitting anyone else. There’s even side action for bystanders to bet on the outcome.

So now, not only can you bet with your life, but you can bet with some innocent driver’s, too!

I smell a Paul Walker movie!

Out of the frying pan and into the foyer

Talk about a rough vacation: all the guests get food poisoning in the hotel restaurant, a family is accused of stealing towels when they try to check out, then security guards shoot a teenage girl in the face with a stun gun, leading to an all-out brawl by the front desk. On the bright side, the whole family did get to see the porn movie being filmed in the hotel lobby.

Hmmm. I guess Bulgaria isn’t so bad after all.
