Tell Pops you love him this Father's Day . . . but say it with bacon. 

Cards, neckties and golf outings won't be necessary. Dear old dad will understand how you feel when you hand him a special Father's Day bacon gift set from Oscar Mayer.

This is a real thing. There are three unique packages to choose from. Each one contains 18-to-20 original bacon strips and comes packed in a handsome plush box. 

"The Commander" package includes a stainless steel money clip. 

"The Matador" has a pair of cufflinks. 

And "The Woodsman" comes with a rugged multi-purpose tool. 

They're priced between $22 and $28. Of course, the bacon strips are raw and need to be cooked, so if you really want be nice to your pops, you'll fry it up for him too.

I can't decide if this idea is BRILLIANT or TWISTED.

There's a new diet floating around that promises you can lose weight by eating nothing but DELICIOUS MACARONI AND CHEESE. But there's a major downside.  Afterwards, you may NEVER want mac and cheese again.

The diet is called the Boredom Diet. Basically, the principle is that if you eat only one food, eventually you'll get sick of it and eat less. 

Researchers studied the diet by having one group of women eat NOTHING but mac and cheese, and another group eat normal food.

They found that after just one week, the group eating mac and cheese was eating an average of 100 calories less per meal than the other group. Over time, that's going to lead to weight loss.

But it's gradual weight loss . . . and really, could you eat nothing but mac and cheese or any other single food for six months or a year? (Kitsap Sun)

Last week, in Lomza, in northeastern Poland, a news crew was doing a live report outside an apartment complex about some abusive parents who lived there. But those horrible parents aren't the story here today.

The apartment complex has some shops at the bottom, including a flower shop. And as the news crew was filming, a 30-year-old named Andrzej Czapka snuck up to the florist's window and STOLE a bouquet of roses off the ledge.  

He didn't see the news crew filming, and the news crew didn't see him. But people watching the news report spotted it and reported it to the police.

They used the footage to track Andrzej down and arrest him.

He told them, quote, "I'd broken up with my girlfriend and I wanted to win her back with some flowers, but I had no money. I didn't even see the film crew." (Austrian Times / Gawker)

If you think coffeemakers are just for coffee, prepare to have your mind BLOWN. Because there are actually websites dedicated to all the OTHER stuff you can make with a coffeemaker. And even though it usually doesn't make SENSE to, here are six of the easiest meals to pull off.

1. Hot Dogs. Just run six-to-eight cups of water through the coffeemaker, then leave the burner on and toss the hot dogs in. Or don't . . . because the microwave obviously makes way more sense. Because the suggested cooking time in a coffee pot is 30 MINUTES. But hey . . . maybe you don't have a microwave or a stove. Apparently you can do hard-boiled eggs the same way, but in eight minutes.

2. Poached Chicken. Essentially, all you need is some chicken breast, some butter, and some water, and you let it cook in the coffee pot for 15 minutes on each side. Then make sure you wash the pot REALLY well.

3. Grilled Cheese Sandwiches. Just remove the pot, wipe down the burner, and cook each sandwich like you normally would if you were using a pan.

4. Anything "Instant." This one's kind of obvious, but coffeemakers are great for things like oatmeal or ramen noodles, because all you have to do is add hot water and wait a few minutes.

5. Vegetables. You can do it two different ways. You can steam them by putting them in the filter basket, and then running water through the coffeemaker a few times. Or you can just fill the pot with hot water, dump the vegetables in, and let them cook until they're tender.

6.Chocolate Fondue. All you have to do is heat up some cream in the coffee pot for about 15 minutes . . . add in pieces of a chocolate bar and let them melt for 10 minutes . . . then stir it, and it's done. A few popular dipping items include strawberries, banana slices, pretzels, and marshmallows.

Here comes CRAIG MORGAN being a hero again. Back in 2011 he rescued two young boys from a house fire. This time around he helped emergency responders handle a freeway accident.

It happened Sunday on Interstate 40 about 30 miles from his home in Dickson, Tennessee. He was returning from a show in Texas when he came upon an accident involving three tractor trailers.

Craig and two of his crew members jumped off the bus and ran to the scene. He performed CPR on crash victims, and then helped extinguish a small fire.

Here's the local sheriff giving him big props: Quote, "[Craig] responded and did exactly what he had been taught to do and was a huge help. This is just another example of the kind of guy he is, he loves doing things for others."

By the way . . . those involved in the accident had only minor injuries. (Got Country) (WTVF)
