District Attorneys rent out their letterhead to debt collectors, split the loot
If you’ve ever gotten a nasty letter from a debt collection agency that seemed to have legal authority behind it, because it was written on the letterhead of some lawyer somewhere, the truth is that it’s very likely a ruse between lawyers, DAs and debt collection agencies, and when you finally get scared and pay up, the lawyers take their cut. Ta da!

James Foster remains in Tacoma General Hospital on life support with severe head injuries.
Pierce County Prosecutors said Foster was punched by 25-year-old Daman Lehman outside a Puyallup bar Friday after he complimented the rims on a car Lehman was riding in.
..he said, ‘Nice car. What kind of rims you got on there?’ and (Lehman) said, ‘That’s a stupid question,’ and he hit him..
..Lehman suddenly hit Foster once in the face. Eyewitnesses said Foster stood motionless, then Lehman hit him again, this time much harder. Foster fell to the ground and struck his head on the pavement. Witnesses said they heard Lehman say, “I put people to sleep, that’s what I do,” as he left the scene.

Walpurgis Night
Walpurgisnacht is a traditional spring festival on 30 April or 1 May in large parts of Central and Northern Europe. It’s celebration is associated with dancing and with bonfires.
The current festival is, in most countries that celebrate it, named after Saint Walburga (ca. 710-777/9). As Walburga was canonized on 1 May (ca. 870), she became associated with May Day, especially in the Finnish and Swedish calendars. The eve of May day, traditionally celebrated with dancing, came to be known as Walpurgisnacht (“Walpurga’s night”).

The 17th century German tradition of a meeting of sorcerers and witches on May Day is influenced by the descriptions of Witches’ Sabbaths in 15th and 16th century literature.
This May or May not be relevant to fans of the anime Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica. May or May not also be relevant to the timing of the Royal Wedding’s date, May Day meta-eve, considering Saint Walburga was an English missionary.
