Leftovers: JGT, RPS Champ

061906jgt.jpg • I got a call on Saturday night when I was heading out the door from a friend. "Hey, we were just at the Rock Paper Scissors championship," he said. "Guess who won?" I asked if he did. "No, Johnny Goodtimes! He won a thousand dollars!" I'm not positive on this, but normal people do not receive these kinds of calls. [Johnny Goodtimes]

• A Montco lawmaker wants to ban cell phone use while driving. Then, he's going to ban riding a motorcycle without talking on your cell at the same time. [KYW 1060]

• Sorry, A.I. haters! Ed Snider did not order a trade of the Lilliputian 76ers guard, although he did tell Billy King to stop signing shitty players. [Daily News]

• A rare copy of the Emancipation Proclamation -- as opposed to the ones just floating around -- was moved to the African American Museum for a Juneteenth celebration. Accompanying it were impersonators of Harriet Tubman, Frederick Douglass and Lucretia Mott. How does one go about hiring a Lucretia Mott impersonator? Are they in high demand? [Inky]

• Oh, yeah: The Yankees are in town this week. Uh oh. [Beerleaguer]
