Cops: 92-Year-Old Shoots Man's House Because He Wouldn't Kiss Her
By Ben Muessig - AOL NewsGive granny a kiss -- or else! Deputies in Marion County, Fla., say a 92-year-old woman opened fire on her neighbor's home on Monday after the 53-year-old resident refused to give her a kiss. Investigators claim Helen B. Staudinger paid a visit to Dwight Bettner's Fort McCoy house -- then said she wouldn't leave unless Bettner kissed her, the Star-Banner reports. ...
Harlequin Attempts to Patent the Kiss
By Larry Knowles - AOL NewsTalk about lip service: Harlequin Enterprises, renowned publisher of pulp romance novels, has applied for a patent on the romantic kiss. The application, if granted, leaves open the possibility that we may one day have to pay a licensing fee to lock lips with the ones we covet. Don't start worrying yet. Harlequin, which releases 110 novels a month and publishes in 115 countries around the world, said it would keep any patented kisses in the public domain. "Should this patent be approved and registered by the U.S. Patent Office," the Toronto publisher announced in its seven-page patent ...
Calling Dr. Love: Dallas Giving Key to City to Kiss' Gene Simmons
By Linda Jones - AOL NewsDALLAS -- Kiss bassist Gene Simmons is legendary for his musical talent and for the tongue wagging, fire breathing and blood spitting of his alter ego, the Demon. But when the rocker and reality show celebrity comes to Dallas today to be honored by city officials, it will be for activities that are more in keeping with his other nickname: Dr. Love. On Wednesday, during Super Bowl week, Simmons will be showing his love and continued support for American troops by throwing a fundraising party for them at Centennial Hall in Fair Park. As a show of appreciation, Dallas officials will toss him a ...

By Monica Garske - AOL News
(Oct. 21) – If you're looking for a place to hang out this weekend, you may want to head over to the Cypress Cove Nudist Resort & Spa in Kissimmee, Fla. This Saturday, the nudist hot spot in the Sunshine State will host its third annual "Nude-A-Palooza," an all-day, "clothing-optional" music festival featuring tribute bands slapping the bass to every type of tune, from Frank Sinatra to KISS covers. Cypress Cove Resort owner Ted Hadley -- a third-generation nudist who's taken over the family business built lovingly by his grandparents in the 1960s -- told AOL News that Nude-A-Palooza ...
Superman Thrown in Slammer
By David Moye - AOL News(July 13) -- It's not a super time to dress like a superhero in Hollywood. Just ask Christopher Dennis, who is most famous as the guy who dresses like Superman outside of Grauman's Chinese Theatre. On July 8, he and a colleague dressed as Batman were arrested near the famous theater while he was passing out flyers for a memorabilia shop. Courtesy Christopher Dennis, aka Superman Christopher Dennis, who dresses up like Superman on Hollywood Boulevard, was recently arrested for loitering. The Los Angeles Police Department has been cracking down on costumed characters who reportedly strong-arm ...
French Heavy Metal Means Croissants and 'Wolf Balls'
By David Moye - AOL News(June 25) -- The French have earned the unfortunate stereotype of being beret-wearing, Jerry Lewis-loving cheese eaters who spend their days smoking teeny cigarettes while reading teeny Jean-Paul Sartre paperbacks at sidewalk cafes with their legs effeminately crossed at the knee. True or not, it's not an image that lends itself to headbanging. But that doesn't mean that French metal heads can't rock out like their counterparts in England, Germany and Scandinavia -- European countries with huge heavy metal scenes. ...
Hollywood's Unholy Love for the Faux-Lesbian Kiss
By Alyssa Giacobbe - AOL NewsANALYSIS (June 7) -- Among the lowlights of last night's MTV Movie Awards, none was lower than the girl-on-girl action that punctuated an otherwise funny and heartwarming speech by Generation Award winner Sandra Bullock. Largely silent as co-presenters Betty White and Bradley Cooper sang Bullock's praises, Scarlett Johansson's sole purpose on stage seemed sadly obvious as she coyly made her way over to Bullock, saying something about the Best Kiss award that Bullock was up for, but didn't win, with Johansson's husband, Ryan Reynolds. Bullock took the cue; the audience cheered; and gay ...
Al and Tipper Gore: Quitters! I Salute You
By Donna Trussell - Politics DailySplitting after 40 years. Why? That's what everyone wants to know, including Politics Daily Editor in Chief Melinda Henneberger and a few of my Woman Up colleagues. Gotta say: Me too. But I'm just curious. Sort of. Really, isn't the reason predictable? As a friend observed: If you live long enough and meet enough people, eventually you'll meet someone you like better than your spouse. (Not to say there's a third party involved in this split. I'm just quotin' my old pal.) Like many others, I winced at the long kiss on the stage of the Democratic Convention in 2000, a rebuttal of sorts in the ...
Barack Obama's Hugs (Coburn) and Kisses (Hillary)
By Tommy Christopher - Politics DailyWhile I was Twittering the President's speech last night, I struggled to compose a joke for this moment, but I type too slowly, and it passed:My joke was going to be, "Great! Now all the liberals are going to get on his case for not kissing the dudes, too!"I mention this because it's an amusing contrast to George Will's observation about the President's hug of Tom Coburn. From HuffPo:WIll chose to focus on the fact that Obama was able to wrap his arms around another man, in friendship. "I don't know when men started to hug each other, but hug they do, and look at that," he said.I guess Will ...
