Okay...it's been over one week now, and I'm still sicker than a damn dog. I need help. The normal way (i.e.: my doctor, meds & taking long naps) hasn't been ANY help whatsoever. However, I have been slipping the amaretto into the hot tea. I think it's time to ditch the tea and stick to the de Sarona... |

SEVIERVILLE, Tenn. — A retired Sara Lee (search) executive missing since he met with a couple about buying his sport utility vehicle was found dead Thursday, frozen in a rented storage unit. The couple was arrested in what federal authorities believe was a bungled carjacking.
James Dale Cockman (search), 71, of Greenville, S.C., had been missing since Sept. 14, the day he was to meet David Wendell Edens and Jennifer Annette Holloway.
Authorities believe Cockman may have suffocated from duct tape that Edens, 34, and Holloway, 27, used to cover his mouth. An autopsy will be performed.
"The interpretation I have right now is that his death was an accident," R. Joe Clark, special agent in charge of the FBI office in Knoxville, told a news conference Thursday.
Edens and Holloway were taken into custody at their rural Smoky Mountains home and charged with carjacking. They appeared in federal court Thursday in Knoxville and were being held by U.S. marshals.
Additional charges for kidnapping and possibly for murder were expected, Clark said. State kidnapping charges were filed in South Carolina.
Cockman was last seen buying a cup of coffee at a convenience store near a parking lot where he was supposed to meet a couple interested in his 1996 GMC Suburban. The Edens and Holloway gave him a $100 deposit the day before and were to pay him the remaining $8,400 the next day.

Sidney Frank sold Grey Goose vodka for $2 billion. At 84 he's planning a new fortune in wine, tequila and energy drinks.
Just about every morning Sidney Frank, the 84-year-old liquor baron, climbs into his $400,000 Mercedes Maybach and is driven to one of four golf courses in upstate New York. He's not there to play the game; he's too frail to swing a club. Instead, at the wheel of a golf cart he leads a team of aspiring pros across an exclusive course where he plays vicariously. In his gruff, gravelly voice, Frank tells his players what clubs to use, where to hit the ball and how to play the angles on the green. In addition to their $50,000 salaries, Frank pays his pawns cash after every hole: $1,000 for a double eagle, $500 for an eagle, $100 for a birdie--plus $500 to the round's winner.
Frank can indulge his eccentricities. In June he sold Grey Goose vodka for a jaw-dropping $2 billion to Bacardi Ltd. The sale--the largest in liquor-business history for a single brand--solidified his spot in the booze business pantheon. It also landed him on The Forbes 400. His personal proceeds from the deal, plus a 75% stake in Sidney Frank Importing, make him worth at least $1.6 billion.
That's enough scratch to make your average octogenarian seriously consider retirement. But Frank wants more. He wants to create another fortune with premium tequilas, low-priced wines and energy drinks. "At my age, you either stay busy or die," says Frank, smoking a custom-made Davidoff cigar in his bedroom, where he spends most of his days watching World War II movies on a 72-inch television.

TAMPA, Fla. (AP) - The "Beer Belly Bandit" has struck again after a 10-month break, adding to the dozens of bank robberies he has committed in Florida since 2000.
The robber, known for his bulging midsection, hit a bank on Tuesday, pulling a gun on two tellers. It was the first robbery he had committed since November, when he held up a bank in Sarasota, the Florida Department of Law Enforcement said.
The amount stolen was not disclosed.
"Normally with investigations like this, you get an abundance of leads, especially with a $25,000 reward," said agent Steve Davenport. "We're not getting much at all. It's kind of perplexing."
Investigators are not sure where the bandit has been for the past 10 months. Jail is one possibility, but Davenport said police have the bandit's description and he probably would have been recognized.
The Beer Belly Bandit - also known as the "Band-Aid Bandit," because he had a bandage on his face in some holdups - has a skin condition on his hands and arms that makes his skin look bleached.
