Good Morning, friends! Jessica is out of the office today, so I am filling in.
- Georgians are starting to feel the effects of the shutdown.
- The shutdown is also disrupting the flow of Georgia Beer.
- R Kelly is under investigation in Georgia after a television series debuted describing his abuse of women, specifically minors.

- Remember the homeless veteran that was accused of a GoFundMe scam? He skipped his court date.
- This guy tried to claim his roommate’s TEN MILLION DOLLAR winning lottery ticket.
- Speaking on $10 million dollars, that’s what these kidnappers want for the wife of one of Norway’s multimillionaires.
- Ok, this sounds really dumb, but I think I could get the free cookie. An Atlanta restaurant is having a “Bird Box” dinner later this month. If you correctly identify the tacos and margaritas that you are consuming blindfolded, then you get a free cookie.

- The Oscars will have no host for the first time in 30 years.
- Astronomers have found a light that is as old as the universe, giving them a peek at the beginning of time.
- Ok, there are some other weird things happening in space, including mysterious radio signals. There are several reasons they could be happening. They include a neutron star with a very strong magnetic field that is spinning very rapidly, two neutron stars merging together, and, among a minority of observers, some form of alien spaceship. I’m going with alien spaceship.
