A British software company has come out with the Pavlock -- a wristband that will give you an electrical shock if you spend too much. Every member of congress should have one of these.

Filming for the new "50 Shades of Grey" movie in Seattle caused some traffic backups this week. In the words of one commuter, "It was punishing."

Officials had warned drivers that it could get rough and that the safe word was "banana."
