Lone In-N-Out Cheeseburger Found Thousands Of Miles From Its Home

STEVE INSKEEP, HOST:

Good morning. I'm Steve Inskeep. A couple in New York City had an eerie experience. On a sidewalk, they found an In-N-Out Burger - a cheeseburger wrapped in In-N-Out logo paper, apparently freshly made - which troubled the couple because there is no In-N-Out restaurant within 1,000 miles of New York. The burger chain is based in the West. Dara Katz and her husband Lincoln Boehm told their story to the New York Post. He said he's shaken to his core by the burger out of space and time.

  • Florida is the land of sunshine and good vibes, but when the sun goes down on Downtown Fort Myers, something ghastly takes over. The waterside community is home to spiritual abnormalities that have caused spine-tingling reactions for decades.WGCU’s Samuel Brucker took part in a Historic Downtown Tour to learn the horrific stories that have turned into urban legend and have given a taste of the macabre to Southwest Florida.
  • Adult Thorn Bugs are half-inch long insects that are “true bugs” (members of the insect Family Membracidae). They are native to South America, Central America, and many tropical islands. As with other members of this family, Thorn Bugs have sucking mouthparts that allow them to pierce plant tissues and drink plant sap. As a result, Thorn Bugs can cause the death of some twigs and potentially introduce diseases to the plant. However, in most cases, Thorn Bug populations are very low and damage caused by thorn bugs is minimal. The good news is that these insects do not feed on most native North American trees. Thorn bugs are an exotic invasive species in Florida that was likely introduced long ago along with an exotic tree species such as the Earleaf Acacia.Even today these insects feed primarily on exotic invasive trees and shrubs imported from tropical areas.
