“This Is Ted Williams All Cleaned Up”

The ReadyWriter

Ted Williams, the 53-year-old homeless panhandler who was literally plucked from obscurity on the side of a highway, is now an Internet sensation. A reporter for a Columbus newspaper uploaded a video of Williams’ gifted baritone voice to YouTube which went viral, garnering over 4 million views.

 The New York Post quotes Williams as exclaiming on local radio station WNCI, “The Cleveland Cavaliers just offered me a full-time job and a house! A house! A house!”

And he cried as he told CBS “Early Show” co-anchors Erica Hill and Chris Wragge:

“I’m gonna be going to New York, hopefully this afternoon… I apologize. I’m getting a little emotional. I haven’t seen my mom in a great deal of time. She doesn’t believe (what’s been happening to me). She’s 92. She lives in Brooklyn. I was born and raised in Brooklyn. … One of my biggest prayers that I sent out was that she would live long enough for me to see me rebound or whatever, and I guess God kept her around and kept my pipes around to maybe just have one more shot that I would be able to say, ‘Mom, I did do it before,’ — I might pass away before her or whatever, but my dad didn’t get a chance to see this. But God is good.”

“Homeless Man Offered Job With Radio Station”

The ReadyWriter

His name is Ted Williams and he’s homeless!

Williams was soliciting money by the side of Interstate 71 in Columbus, Ohio, when a reporter from the Columbus Dispatch spotted his sign advertising his “god given gift” of a golden voice.

Williams was offered a job with a local radio station in Columbus, after a viral video he did garnered over 4 million hits on YouTube.

The reporter uploaded a video he made on his cell phone of Williams speaking, and the rest, as they say, is history.

Thanks to my Crony and loyal CEO reader “ZP” for the video. 🙂

“Montel Williams Busted With A Marijuana Pipe”

The ReadyWriter

The talk show host was detained at a Milwaukee airport for having a marijuana pipe in his possession.

Wisconsin authorities say former talk show host and medical marijuana activist Montel Williams has been cited for possession of drug paraphernalia at the General Mitchell International Airport in Milwaukee.

Montel Williams paid the $484 citation and was released to continue his travel.

The Milwaukee County sheriff’s office says the Transportation Security Administration found Williams had a pipe commonly used for marijuana as he passed through a security checkpoint Tuesday.

Williams said he uses marijuana to relieve chronic pain caused by multiple sclerosis that he was diagnosed with in 1999. The 54-year-old has since became an activist pushing for medical marijuana laws after being stopped at a Detroit airport years ago for carrying drug paraphernalia.

Thanks to my mom for the story tip. 🙂

“A Congratulations Are In Order”

The ReadyWriter

For sexy actress Vivica A. Fox, who got engaged over the holidays to her 27-year-old concert promoter boyfriend, Omar “Slim” White asked for Vivica’s hand in marriage with an eight-karat rock while the two were staying at the Ritz Carlton hotel on Miami Beach.

Although Vivica’s rep has confirmed the engagement, she has not commented directly to the media as of yet.

Fox told ‘The Wendy Williams Show’ in December that she and Atlanta native White are hoping to have a baby in 2011 and that she “waited on God to send her a good man, and he’s a good Southern man.”

Yeah there’s nothing like those southern men!!! Their minds are usually made up concerning marriage and quick!!

 The actress, whose films include ‘Kill Bill: Vol. 1’ and ‘Juwanna Mann,’ also made headlines in 2003 for dating rapper 50 Cent.

“Why Are Birds And Fish Dying In Arkansas?”

The ReadyWriter

Everyone’s talking about the thousands of fish and fowl that are turning up dead in two small towns in Arkansas.

Like a scene out of Hitchcock’s classic movie ‘The Birds,’ 5,000 dead birds literally dropped out of the sky just before midnight on New Year’s Eve in Beebe, Arkansas.

Is this a sign of Biblical proportions?

Others say fireworks could be the culprit.

That’s not all: there’s the 100,000 dead fish that floated to the surface of the Arkansas River near a town called Ozark last week.

Certainly such a massive fish kill couldn’t be the result of hail or fireworks. And even if it was — as some experts call it, “a stress event,” how weird is it that the birds and fish all died in the same geographical area?
