Road Warrior:
A California man is accused of stealing --and wrecking --a $300-thousand dollar Ferrari.
Santa Ana police say ISRAEL PEREZ RANGEL snatched the Ferrari 458 Spider from a repair shop after workers accidentally left the keys on the seat. Officers later got word of someone driving a Ferrari erratically. A short time later they found Rangel begging people for gas money near the luxury car, which was totally wrecked at this point. He tried to hide in some nearby bushes but was quickly arrested. The owner of the Ferrari was awarded an insurance payout and replaced the car with a brand new Lamborghini. (Still)Ratings:
Tuesday night's "Victoria's Secret Fashion Show" only managed to pull in around five million people who wanted to see women in lingerie. That total is down 25 percent from last year and an all-time low for the special. The winner Tuesday night was NBC's "This Is Us" with 10.8 million viewers, followed by "The Voice," with 10.5 million viewers. CBS's annual "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" animated special was third with 8 million viewers.
Pet Patrol:
Who knew cats loved mayo???!!! A cat that rescuers call "Miracle" lived for almost a month with it's head stuck in a mayo jar. LINDA RUGGERE of Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, had seen the cat wandering around her neighborhood and had tried to catch it.
"I was literally able to get the mayo jar and try to get its head popped out and it ran away again," she said. She was very worried about the cat, so she called in help from Whisker's World, a volunteer group who was able to catch the cat and bring it to Pittston Animal Hospital where a doctor was able to cut the plastic jar with a pair of scissors. (Myers)Attracting Mr or Miss right:
Would you love to smooch up someone under the mistletoe this holiday season?
Attracting your next Mr. or Miss Right Now could be as easy as adding a few delectable foods to your online dating profile!
Fox News reports a new study by Zoosk claims that love seekers who mentioned chocolate saw a 100-percent increase in messages received, while potatoes added 101-percent more communications and guacamole is a singles' favorite with 144-percent added traffic to the inbox.
Although avocado is just guac without the spices and seasonings, it only boosted response by 91-percent and fried chicken won't do much for your romantic life --adding the comfort food only gave users a 15-percent increase from potential mates.(Lee)
