As We See It
Conversation starters: From ‘Sister Wives’ to crappy copiers
Wed, Nov 2, 2011 (5:25 p.m.)

A real cut-up
The Clark County Coroner’s Office will soon be featured on a series of Discovery episodes, showing how the office operates. Coroner Michael Murphy insists this won’t be “reality television,” but more of a cautionary tale of dangerous lifestyles, with the show ranging from crime scenes to autopsies to notifying next-of-kin. Education and autopsies? Cool!

Joke's on him
Daniel Halseth, husband of state Sen. Elizabeth Halseth, has been arrested after his wife alleged that he tried to force sex with her. According to arrest reports, Daniel told officers it was a joke to get her attention. Yeah. Not funny.

Rage against the machine
Las Vegas-based office technology company Advanced Imaging Solutions has a contest going—write them a story about your crappy copier, and the winner gets a new one, while the old one will be demolished in a ceremony in North Las Vegas. We’d like to say a big thank you to AIS for giving us an excuse to pull out all those Office Space lines we’ve been itching to use. “PC load letter? What the f*ck does that mean?”
Parents with benefits
This week’s Las Vegas-set Sister Wives had one mother getting fed up with her children’s attitude, hinting at them moving in with their father. Also, two other daughters will be moving in with another mother because they get along better with her. Wow. Could this be the ultimate justification for polygamy? No more troubled kids threatening to run away. They can just move next door. Everyone wins.
