OK, So That Time I Wrote About CVS Getting Fined For Something Once A Month? That Was Supposed To Be A Joke.

Tough thing about being a jokester though, is that real life often robs you of your material:

VENTURA, Calif. (KABC) -- CVS Pharmacy has agreed to pay nearly $14 million to settle claims that it illegally disposed of hazardous waste at many of its California stores. 

A Ventura County judge approved the settlement on Wednesday. Two years ago, allegations surfaced that CVS improperly disposed of medical, pharmaceutical and photographic waste over a seven-year period. 

Fire and environmental health departments in 45 cities and counties in California will share the money from the $13.75 million settlement.

What could they possibly have on tap for May? Stay tuned to find out.

Thanks to the alert reader who tipped me to the story.
