A 44-year-old woman in New City, N.Y., was charged with having sex with teenage boys and smoking pot and drinking booze with them.
Not good, you are thinking. The woman, Beth Modica, had better hope this is all a silly misunderstanding — or she needs a reeeaally good lawyer.
What could make things worth for poor Bethy? Well, how about:
A) She is a former PTA president. (Yikes.)
B) She is a lawyer herself and a former prosecutor. (Double yikes.)
C) She is the wife of the police chief in nearby Spring Valley, N.Y. (Triple yikes.)
Isn’t that called hitting the trifecta?

A legislator in Maryland, Page Elmore, R-Somerset, wants the Old Line State to declare the 10-layer Smith Island cake its official state dessert.
Whatever. My nominee would have been a Snickers bar and Diet Coke.

The world’s largest saltwater swimming pool opened last month in Chile. It is more than 1,000 yards long, covers 20 acres and holds 66 million gallons of water. It is at the fancy San Alfonso del Mar resort on Chile’s southern coast.
It is also waaay bigger than the world’s second-largest pool, which is in Morocco and is just 150 yards long and 100 yards wide. That’s a surprise; you would think the world’s second-largest pool would be a little closer in size to the world’s first-largest pool.
Anyway:
1) Wouldn’t it have been easier to fence off a chunk of the Pacific Ocean at the resort’s beach and call it “our pool”?
2) Isn’t the Gulf of Mexico the world’s largest saltwater swimming pool?
