Story #1
After the first two days, Mr. Chong said, he began to hallucinate, imagining “little Japanese cartoon characters telling me what to do.” He clawed at the walls, convinced that they contained messages about where to find water.

The tanning mom is going to be Snooki in a few years.
The story about Mr. Chong just went from bad to worse. I mean he thought he had no food, then found something in a packet and its meth of all things. I can't believe that happened to someone, I don't see how his lawyers wont have a lawsuit after all that.

The first story about the tanning misunderstanding seemed really insignificant. I think it is weird that the media would focus so heavily on something that unimportant.

About the tanning "misunderstanding"; my mom and I were actually talking about this story after we saw it on the news. For starters, the mother's face looks like leather. Second, it seems suspecious if the daughter got 2nd degree burns right after going to the tanning place with her mother. And third, why doesn't any of the workers of the tanning place check the cameras and see if the child actually went into the tanning bed?

The story about the guy being forgotten in a jail cell for 4 days is TERRIFYING. That's seriously like the worst nightmare ever. If I was him, I would be taking immediate legal action.

I'm fairly certain Mr. Chong will receive a nice financial settlement from the federal government.

I have no idea how every person working at the jail or the Drug Enforcement Administration with the holding cell could be so oblivious as to forget a man for four days. I guess he won't have to worry about college debt after his settlement though. . . The whole tanning case is pretty crazy as I'm pretty sure that no one at the tanning salon would let a mother make her little girl go tanning. Things got pretty out of hand but I think it's safe to say that her mother has had enough tanning herself.

Here's what I think of the tanning girl's story- so she may or may not have been in the tanning bed, but what is more plausible is that she went 'tanning' in the sun- which got her the burn. No matter what though, the little girl probably wanted to be 'just like mommy' going tanning. I think there is psychological significance in this in the way we raise kids. Parents MUST be careful in what actions they take so that kids don't admire bas behaviors. I really hope that girl doesn't end up like her mom- nutella skin does NOT go with red hair!!! And for the prison guy, that's barbarious mistreatment and should not be allowed. But this also probably came about because of the overcrowding and poor conditions of the prison- all because the guy wanted to smoke weed? Just something to think over.

American justice at its best.

Wait. I'm confused, how did the packet of meth get in the blanket? Wasn't the blanket provided by the jail or was it Mr. Chongs? Well i think we can all learn a lesson from this...Don't do drugs...EVER! As for Mrs. Tanorexic, if she wants to ruin her own skin then so be it. But if she's dumb enough to ruin her daughter, then her parenting skills really need to be evaluated...

Why couldn't they just ask the girl if she went into the tanning bed in the first place? As for being forgotten in a jail cell...it's the gov. lots of things are forgot no matter their significance.

Mr. Chong is the real life version of Harold and Kumar. Tanning lady looks like an overcooked pretzel.

For the story about Mr. Chong, I can't beleive that he could be forgotten in a cell for 4 days. I think I would go crazy too. As for the mom with the leater face, I think that she is addicted to tanning beds and that she did take her daughter there, but just doesn't want to get into trouble.
