Customers calling for medical help hear "Hey, sexy guy"If you're a member of the AvMed health-maintenance organization, you might not want to use the customer-service phone number on your new membership card just yet.
The Department of Management Services said today AvMed sent about 21,000 cards to subscribers with the wrong toll-free number for reaching a service representative dedicated to State of Florida employees. The correct number is (888) 762-8633 but the cards listed an (800) prefix.

.DUI man to 'crooked cop': You're ruining my lifeAfter being clocked at 44 mph in a 25 mph residential zone, a 43-year-old Crestview motorist emitting "a strong odor of alcoholic beverages" asked the officer "if he could just park his vehicle and call someone to pick him up." Told that wasn't an option, he told the officer "this is ridiculous."
Arrested on DUI charges, the man called the officer a "crooked cop."
At the jail he thought he could fool the Intoxilyzer 8000 by puffing out his cheeks instead of actually blowing into the mouthpiece.
As he was issued a citation for speeding and DUI, the man informed the officer "you're ruining my life."
.He didn't see the Myth Busters episode on trying to fool the machine.

A idiot blaming everyone else for his own lack of functioning brain cells.
