0:03 Kalaroga Shark Media Hither Johnny Mack with five good news stories. Would you like to sleep over in a jet? A man has turned a private jet from the nineteen seventies into an AIRB and B. It comes with two bedrooms. It can sleep two adults and two children, and has a fully functioning kitchen, a bathroom with a shower, and an outdoor seating area. Tamer acquired half of the nineteen seventies jet in December of twenty twenty three from an acquaintance who deals in oddities. The plane was decommissioned in the nineteen eighties. You're probably wondering why it's half a plane. Well, it was cut in half and had the wings removed to make it easier to transport. Ali spent seven months and about one hundred and twenty grand turning the jet into a rental property in Wells. He says it's awesome when people walk in and they say it's much bigger than it seems on the outside. It's a unique experience.
1:01 Not many people get to sit in the cockpit of a seventies private jet. It'll run you around two hundred dollars a night and is said to be a very very cool experience, We're told the feedback so far has been good. People seem to love it. Some students at Purdue University built a robot that can solve a Rubik's cube in point one zero three seconds. Wow, yep, one hundred and three milliseconds. A human blink takes about two hundred to three hundred milliseconds. A human blink it takes about two hundred to three hundred milliseconds, So before you even realize the robot's moving, we've solved it. This shattered the previous record, which was an absurd point three h five seconds. Meanwhile, Jennifer is all excited about something she found in her basement. It is the only known prototype of the first ever Chinese typewriter. They found this thing in the basement, posted on Facebook. Is it even worth anything?
1:52 It weighs a ton that got offers from museums and schools around the world. One of the commenters on Facebook until Jennifer want you check out Professor Thomas Mulaney's book The Chinese Typewriter, A History Inside It. A whole chapter was dedicated to the typewriter. This type of typewriter is usually just called a bright Fast Typewriter because of the first two characters. Danford University has acquired the typewriter and will pay for its maintenance. Jennifer said, I didn't want this unique, one of a kind piece of history to disappear again. Happy Birthday to Holly Marie Gonzalez, who celebrated her Kinsignia. Holly Merie Gonzalez is a cat. Her human friend, Miranda told the Dodo was always a dream of mine since she was little. I wanted to celebrate our life together and show everyone my love for her. It took me months to plan the Kinsinia. I had friends and family as patrinos, which are people who donate and help with The event was very detail oriented, so what did they do. They had a grand entrance for Holly and a remote controlled Bentley, a father daughter dance, an elaborate cake, and even a full mariachi band. The band said it was their first time doing a Kincini for a cat.
3:01 The Kinsinia also served as a fundraiser for the Almost Home Cat Haven animal rescue shelter. Dina, who's the managing director of the Almost Home Cat Haven, said that the online donations from the promotion of the Kinsiniera took the rescue operation from the verge of closing to financial stability. That's awesome.

Uh why were you late for work this time? Huh? Well, sorry, boss. I was on the highway and there was an escaped cow in the eastbound lanes. The Oklahoma City PD said the cow wandered on to Interstate forty near South Pennsylvania Avenue just after five in the morning. Luckily, the cow was not struck by any vehicles, but did cause backups while police worked to get the cow. The cow was eventually wrangled onto the shoulder of the highway and loaded onto a trailer. At the time of this recording, the orgins of the cow are unknown. It's a mystery cow.
