Funny story made national news today. Straight out of Des Moines, IA. Well Ft. Dodge realy. Here it is from AP. “DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Jane Hambleton has dubbed herself the “meanest mom on the planet.” After finding alcohol in her son’s car, she decided to sell the car and share her 19-year-old’s misdeed with everyone — by placing an ad in the local newspaper.
