NEW Powerball Winner Scores Jail Time—Fightmaster Girlfriend Takes Title!


Just days after pocketing a cool $167.3 million in the Powerball jackpot, Kentucky’s own James Farthing, 50, discovered that some things money can’t buy—like a smooth exit from a scuffle at TradeWinds Resort in Pinellas County, Florida. 

According to the Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office, Farthing’s windfall-fueled euphoria took an abrupt nosedive when he allegedly kicked a deputy square in the face while “resisting arrest.”

Eyewitnesses say the drama began around 11 p.m. Tuesday, when Farthing and another guest got into a row worthy of a soap-opera cliffhanger. Deputies rushed in to break it up, only to become the unwitting targets of the newly minted millionaire’s martial arts audition. 

The deputy in question—likely less impressed by the boot and more by the audacity—was left nursing his pride (and possibly a bruised jaw).

Meanwhile, Farthing’s better half, Jacqueline Fightmaster, lived up to her surname by scoring her own arrest on a disorderly intoxication charge. With a name like Fightmaster, one has to wonder: was she practicing for the next round, or just making sure her poker face could handle a few more drinks? 

In any case, Fightmaster bonded out swiftly, presumably to “fight more masterfully” another day.

Adding insult to injury, jail records reveal Farthing’s lockup isn’t just about domestic drama—it’s also for a parole violation back in Kentucky. 

Talk about striking out on all fronts!

In a WKYT-TV interview just one day before trading his lottery ticket for handcuffs, Farthing cheerfully declared, “Somebody’s gotta win.” He got that right—just maybe not in the way he expected.

So here’s your lesson: whether you’re flush with cash or still checking your scratch-offs, keep your kicks off the cops’ faces and your bachelor’s degree in brawling off your résumé—unless you’re auditioning for the next action blockbuster. 

And Jacqueline? With a name like Fightmaster, she’s clearly already got the lead role.

We Are Temporarily Halting Further Publication....

Do to financial issues and lack of funding we are temporarily halting further publication. After a full year of publication, we have reached a bridge that we are unable to cross at this time. We may periodically publish an article but at this time, full-time publication is no longer feasible. Thank you to all the readers who followed us throughout our journey and we wish you the very best. Hopefully we will see our way through this rough patch and will resume publication in the near future. Thanks again! Robert B.

Please Help Find These Forgotten Girls Held at Male Juvenile Prison for Over a Year!

  MY MOST IMPORTANT STORY  Dozens of Forgotten Little Girls Held at Male Juvenile Prison for Over a Year! Welcome to the Sunshine State , where the palm trees sway, the alligators lurk, and the legislative process makes Kafka look like a life coach!  Florida House Bill HB21 . Not just a compensation bill but possibly a 20 million dollar "Stay out of Jail Free" card for some folks. This is a bill that does some good—but also trips over its own shoelaces, falls down a staircase, and lands on a historical oversight so big, it might as well have its own zip code! An oversight that overlooks what I consider to be its most vulnerable victims! The Setup: Justice with a Catch HB21 was enacted on July 1, 2024 to compensate victims of abuse from two male juvenile detention facilities located in Florida, Dozier and Okeechobee.  It says, “Hey, survivors of abuse between 1940 and 1975, here’s some compensation for the horrific things you endured!” Sounds good, right?

Florida Rest Stop Rules of the Road: ‘You May Snooze — But Not for Long'

Drivers and travelers: rejoice, recline, and — most importantly — read the fine print.  In Florida you can legally sleep in your car at a rest area , but the state has politely (and bureaucratically) set a curfew on your horizontal ambitions.  Pull up, power nap , pack up — and do it all before the three-hour buzzer sounds. Think of Florida’s rest-area rules as the DMV of naps!  The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) and the Florida Administrative Code say these roadside oases exist to fight driver fatigue — and to allow the general public a short, safe snooze.  For non-commercial drivers, the limit is three hours...  Commercial vehicle operators (that’s professional truck drivers) get more mercy: up to ten hours, aligned with federal hours-of-service expectations so truckers can actually finish a legally required rest window without getting ticketed for loafing.  So yes, your buddy the trucker can sleep longer than you — he’s earned it the h...
