Apparently being a terrible person and pulling a “Weekend at Bernie’s” on your own Mom really puts you in the mood for boneless Buffalo wings.

57-year-old David Vanzo of Plymouth, Minnesota moved in with his mom back in 2007. She died this past January.

And before David reported it, he put her in a wheelchair, took her to the bank, and withdrew $850 from her account.

Then he dropped his mom off at home and headed straight to Buffalo Wild Wings. As one does.

He called the cops later that day and reported his mother had died. When they got there, their report says the house, quote, “smelled overwhelmingly of urine and feces” and David’s mother was lying on a soiled bed in her coat and boots.

They launched an investigation, and he was arrested on Thursday for criminal neglect and financial exploitation.

Dailey Bailey: Happy St. Patrick’s Day . . . Here’s How to Open a Beer Bottle With a Sheet of Paper

Want to impress people when you’re out drinking for St. Patrick’s Day? How about showing them you’re the MacGyver of drunks?

There’s a YouTube video floating around that shows how to get the cap off a beer bottle using nothing but a sheet of paper. It’s an old trick, but if you’ve never heard about it, here’s what you do . . .

1. Fold the paper in half from top to bottom. Then fold it in half long-wise three times, until it’s long and thick. Heh.

2. Now fold that in the middle, to turn it into a “V” shape.

3. Hold the bottle steady, put the “V” part under the cap, and pop it off.

You might want to practice once before you try to impress the ladies . . . you’ll be way cooler if you do it on your first try.

Dailey Bailey: A “Cannonball Run” Remake is in the Works

“The Cannonball Run” is the latest classic flick to get the remake treatment. It’ll be written and directed by Etan Cohen. He co-wrote “Idiocracy” and “Tropic Thunder” . . . and he co-wrote and directed “Get Hard”.

The original “Cannonball Run” came out in 1981, and starred Burt Renyolds and Dom Deluise as one of several teams competing in a cross-country road race.

It had a huge, all-star cast . . . at least for its time. It included Roger Moore, Farrah Fawcett, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr., Adrienne Barbeau, Terry Bradshaw, Mel Tillis, Jackie Chan, Bert Convy, Jamie Farr, and Peter Fonda.

Then there was a sequel in 1984 that starred Burt and Dom and some other stars from the original . . . plus Frank Sinatra, Telly Savalas, Shirley MacLaine, Tim Conway, Don Knotts, Tony Danza, Ricardo Montalban, Joe Theismann, and Abe Vigoda.

Here is the opening from the original

Dailey Bailey: Forget March Madness, There’s a Tournament to Decide the Craziest Name

Most of us don’t know anything about college basketball ( although I think I have filled out a perfect bracket ). But we do know no human being should have a name like Cinderela Guevara, Jasmine Albuquerque-Crossaint, or Lt. Charlene Sprinkle-Huff.

There’s a website called NameOfTheYear.com that runs its OWN version of March Madness every spring. They find the 64 craziest REAL names in the news over the past year, and have them battle it out in a tournament.

The voting starts in a few days on their website.

The four top seeds are a chemist named Tillmann Buttersack . . . a professor at Duke named Pope McCorkle the Third . . . a pro cricket player from Zimbabwe named Joylord Gumbie . . . and a teenage criminal named Shuntayvious Primes-Willis.

Last year, a woman named Amanda Miranda Panda beat a guy named Lancelot Supersad Junior to take the title.
