Bradley Cooper plays a deranged Eagles fan in Silver Linings Playbook. A nutcase at the Linc, that's a stretch.

"Shooting some b-ball outside of the school" -- one of the many great lines from the "Fresh Prince of Bel Air" theme song -- sounds A LOT like "Shooting some PEOPLE outside of the school" ... a lesson one H.S. in PA learned the hard way after locking down the district in FEAR OF A MASS SHOOTING.
It all went down in Ambridge H.S. Thursday when a medical receptionist called a 19-year-old AHS student to remind him of his upcoming optometrist appointment, but got his "Fresh Prince" themed voicemail instead -- according to the Beaver County Times.
The receptionist reportedly misinterpreted the kid's message -- in which he raps a few lines from the song -- as a massive threat to GUN DOWN every student in school and she quickly called the cops.
The police -- who can't take mass shooting "threats" lightly -- quickly alerted the ENTIRE school district, which went straight into DEFCON 1 mode and locked down, while cops searched for the teen.
The 19-year-old -- who was chillin' at school -- was swarmed by police and taken into custody to be questioned. After a few minutes of explanations and a careful review of the VM, law enforcement determined he was in fact ... singing "The Fresh Prince of Bel Air" ... and was released.
The district's superintendent made a statement following the embarrassing mistake, saying "It gave us a wonderful chance to review our emergency procedures."
Yeah, someone should get that town the DVD box set ... or a TV ... or the Internet ... because it's freaking everywhere.

This one is way to close to home... 10 minutes away and one school district over, and close to the same age as my son.

Might be time to sign the boy up for some martial arts training. Great for discipline, health and wouldn't hurt when he starts going to Cowboys games at the Linc or hanging out on South Street in his 20s.

Quote:SHAYNA SYKES posted a photograph to Instagram recently of a new tattoo on her foot that reads "Live fast DIE PRETTY."
On Tuesday morning, Sykes, 23, and her fiance, Blake Bills, 24, fulfilled the first part of her foot-tattoo prophecy - and came dangerously close to the second - when they stole not one, but two police cars and led cops on a chase from Camden to Philadelphia at speeds of up to 100 mph before they were eventually arrested, police said.
"Clearly, it was a very volatile situation. A lot of people could have gotten hurt, and this just was bizarre," said Philadelphia Deputy Police Commissioner Richard Ross Jr. "I've never heard of an instance where two police cars from different states were stolen in the same incident."
Authorities say the chase may have capped a three-day crime spree for Sykes and Bills, who have a 7-month-old girl and whose relatives in their hometown of Macungie, Lehigh County, reported them missing several days ago.
Jason Laughlin, spokesman for the Camden County Prosecutor's Office, said police are looking at Bills and Sykes as suspects in a police chase on Sunday and in an attempted carjacking of a civilian vehicle earlier Tuesday.

Police in Reading, Pa. are investigating and sorting through surveillance video of a melee that involved as many as 100 teenagers armed with boards, bats, table legs, hammers and other weapons.
Sgt. John Solecki says detectives are looking at video from surveillance cameras and bystanders who posted footage of Wednesday's brawl on Facebook.
A phone tip alerted police to video of the melee.
The Reading Eagle reports the teens were fighting at basketball courts in City Park when police responded around 4 p.m. Wednesday. At least one person, a 17-year-old boy, was taken to the hospital. Investigators say the large fight involved 75 to 100 teenagers.

PHILADELPHIA -
It's one thing to shed your clothes when it gets hot in the city, but one woman is taking it to an entirely different level.
Meet Moira Johnston of Havertown.
She is wearing jeans and shoes, but no shirt.
As she sits topless in Rittenhouse Square, Moira tells Fox 29's Chris O'Connell that she a women's rights activist. she walks around Philly and New York topless - to prove her point.
"I want to make people feel they have freedom over their own body and we don't have to be ashamed of our body."
This is certainly getting her lots of attention. Men and woman stared. Some in disbelief, some giggled. She even posed for a few pictures.
Along with the attention, comes some trouble with the law. She was detained and handcuffed on Sunday. "The police officer was trying to tell me if I want to look like this I have to be at a strip club"
Moira was given a citation for failure to disburse, not for nudity. Why? Because she was wearing pasties, so "technically" she was not nude.
"Basically I was saying I'm not doing anything illegal. and I'm just sitting here topless with my nipples covered"
We asked Johnston is this something kids should see?
"Since I don't view them as being exclusively sexual I don't think that they're harmful to see," she replied.
Johnston says she'll continue here topless crusade. In the meantime, Philadelphia police and the district attorney's office are still looking into the legality of her topless protest.
