Dev Test County • January 29, 2025
Good morning, Dev Test County. Lady Luck made quite the pit stop at Discount Drug Mart in Reminderville, transforming a routine pharmacy run into a $110,000 windfall. It's the kind of story that makes you wonder if you should add lottery tickets to your shopping list, right between paper towels and toothpaste. And speaking of unexpected bonuses, Buckeyes fans can score free Chipotle today just by sporting their team gear - though we suspect some clever souls might try to pass off scarlet pajamas as official merchandise.
Meanwhile, Akron's own Paul Tazewell is weaving some Oscar-worthy magic with his "Wicked" costume designs. From mushroom-inspired witch wear to petal-perfect bubble dresses, he's proving that sometimes the most enchanting stories start right here in Northeast Ohio - even if they end up in the Emerald City.

🎭 Akron native's 'Wicked' costumes earn Oscar nod in dazzling achievement. Paul Tazewell, the Emmy and Tony-winning costume designer, has been nominated for his imaginative work on the upcoming "Wicked" film adaptation. Leading a massive team of 70 artisans, Tazewell drew inspiration from nature - including mushrooms for Elphaba's iconic looks and rose petals for Glinda's bubble dress. The designer spent 18 months in London crafting costumes for both parts of the film, which received 10 Oscar nominations total. This marks Tazewell's second Oscar nomination, following his 2022 nod for "West Side Story."
