The ISIS crisis was put to rest… in Forest Hills, that is.img_0676

The owner of nail salon “Isis Nails” changed the name after it drew harassment from people who thought the shop was connected
to the infamous Islamic State terror group.

Charlene Tse decided to rename her business “Bess Nails and Spa” after she received unrelenting phone calls and visits from folks who thought her salon in Forest Hills was a cover for waging jihad.

“Before we changed the name, we had a lot of people taking pics and coming to harass me,” she told a local newspaper. “They said, ‘You have no shame! Don’t you know what happened, they cut off people’s heads!’”

Tse has since changed the name to “Bess Nails and Spa,” and it will cost her an estimated $7,000 to change the name of her
business.

    Today, I went to the beachfront with my children. I found a
    sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She
    placed the shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside
    and it pinched her ear. She never wants to go back!

    LoL I know this is totally off topic but I had to tell someone!
