Hitting a rough Patch: Hot dog shop owner Captain Barnes showed up on a Pittsburgh-area Patch site twice this week. First, he showed up in a cutesy Valentine’s Day story. Then he showed up the next day, suspected of a bank robbery. The second story doesn’t mention the first story, but if it did, that’d be awesome. (ht Romenesko)
