Get ready for May 16th because that's when you'll be able to experience the Insane Inflatable 5K running obstacle course! This is for all ages; anyone forty-two inches and over can participate. Teams are encouraged so tell your friends! Check out what you may be in for:

Train derailment causes massive explosion in West Virginia. The tanker cars were carrying crude oil, and a fireball shot into the air. No injuries were reported, though one person did suffer from breathing in the fumes. More strict regulations for transporting crude oil will probably be seen in future.

Maybe you've done it before: you're driving along, and you decide to run a red light. Bet you didn't have someone tapping on your window to scold you. Makes you think twice about road safety. This guy's reaction is priceless.

Sakura in Richland is the place to go for a nice quiet dinner on the weekend. There is a cushioned bench when you walk in where you can gaze at the fish tank if you are waiting for someone. The staff are very helpful and friendly, and don't neglect you while you are at the table, but they aren't annoyingly present all the time either.

You may think this lady is just making dinner. She has some amazing talent. Instead of just cooking, she adds some flair to her stove-top duties.

This cat has very little concern about the vending-machine-claw looming above him, even when it enters his personal space. He clearly wants to get back to his nap among the stuffed animals. He's probably thinking, "I wish they would hurry up and leave...

At first, you may think that the innocent-looking dog on the sofa is the culprit, but wait; there's a plot twist! This is a case of false accusation. Watch and you'll see.

This little guy is having fun in the rain, dancing around and having a blast. That is, until he tries to walk forward. Let's just say that he doesn't give up easily!

Who knew that octopuses were so good at hide-and-seek? This beauty resembles a glow-in-the-dark toy as it pulsates with a vibrant color, then fades instantly into its surroundings.
