Muffin Tops
I was in a position to watch a great number of people this weekend, being in a very crowded place, and IÂ’m sorry to report that the incidents of inappropriate attire people don for public display has not lessened.
I witnessed several instances of heavy women wearing low rise jeans or shorts with a skimpy top that bares the midriff. The problem with this particular style of dress on a heavy woman is that when they squeeze into those jeans, the fat gets pushed up and over the waistband creating a “muffin top.” I had no idea there was a specific term for this until my old lady enlightened me whilst pointing one out.
She elaborated.
“The problem is, almost everything is cut to low rise for women nowadays,” she said. “But you have to have a great body to pull off the bare midriff without the muffin top. That’s why a lot of girls wear a top that covers it. As you can see, some people either don’t know or don’t care about the muffin top.”
It was enlightening.
Aside from the muffin tops, I saw a lot of other disturbing attire. Guys wearing Capri pants. I wouldn’t have believed it had I not seen it. Someone needs to explain to me to me how a guy can walk around in Capri pants and not feel like a total dickwad—because the guys I saw looked like total dickwads.
Some people wear what I like to call the “designer costume”. That’s where every piece of clothing they wear has DKNY or Hilfiger stamped all over it. I’m not a fan of obviousness. Guy’s do this more than girls and it makes me cringe.
Then there’s “the juicy chicks.” Women who wear shorts with the word “juicy” written prominently across their ass. While that may work for women in decent shape, the majority of women I saw should really know better than to draw attention to their fat asses by boldly printing slogans across it. Some of these broads could have a whole paragraph written back there. What could they possibly be thinking?
DonÂ’t think IÂ’m against heavy peopleÂ… thatÂ’s not the case at all. IÂ’m against heavy people wearing clothing thatÂ’s clearly inappropriate. If I had a big beer gut, I wouldnÂ’t wear tight fitting shirts or take my shirt off at every available opportunity. For some reason fat guys love to take their shirts off.
On the bright side, I saw a hot chick wearing some kind of spandex, half body suit that fit like a second skin. It was black and red and I didn’t see her until my kid pointed and called out, “There’s Mrs. Incredible!” And that’s exactly what she looked like. Yes, one could say it was inappropriate attire, but at least it didn’t repulse me.

I'm always saying, "Just because they make it in your size doesn't mean it's ok to wear it!"
I cover my shit UP and so should most fat chicks.

I always say, if your jeans make it look like you have 2 sets of hips, or you can't distinguish the breasts from the rolls, you are dressed inappropriately. Large women in mini-skirts to, what the fuck is up with that?

Finding Bill Cimino
I miss
Bill. His curmudgeonry was legendary, and his absolute contempt for just about everyone around him was an inspiration to the misanthrope community. However, there's something about Bill that he hasn't been telling us. Maybe because he's embarrassed (I know I would be), and maybe because it shows a side of him that others might see as weak. But we're all real people here Bill, and we all have little things about us that make us look stupid.
Below the fold, for the not so faint of heart.

Could it be that simple?
I rarely bring up politics or world events, but I may have stumbled on to something quite by accident.
From
here:
“A man holds a woman by the hand and dances with her in front of everyone. Does that serve the national interest?”
Who gives a shit? Nothing these assholes do serves any real national interests. I think the reason these people are so full of hate is because theyÂ’re not getting laid. TheyÂ’re so repressed by Stone Age beliefs that they probably need to be taught masturbation.
After controversies when a Hamas-led council halted a dance festival and Islamist gunmen stopped a rap band performing in Gaza, Dr Zahar defended the enforcement of a strict interpretation of Islam.
Okay, so theyÂ’re not into hip-hop. I canÂ’t fault their judgment on that, but they need to loosen up. LetÂ’s face it, weÂ’ve seen this all before. Remember
Footloose? Kevin Bacon wasnÂ’t having any of that no dancing bullshit, and he taught that town a valuable lesson.
DonÂ’t you think these people want to make out? I mean, if a guyÂ’s got his arm around a chick and heÂ’s trying to get his other hand up under there itÂ’s hard to hold to a rifle. If given a choice between making a bomb or maybe getting to third base with some chick at a party, who the hell would choose the bomb? I think what the majority of these people want is a six pack of beer and a box of rubbers. Kevin Bacon may be the answer to this entire problem.

You may be on to something here Paul. I mean, celebrities are always running off at the mouth and championing causes, speaking on political issues and what not. I say it's time we draft some of these folks and get these Islamist guys laid. Instead of dropping bombs on these guys, lets dust them with ecstacy and send in the Pussycat Dolls.

And let's be real, I'd sacrifice every pussycat doll and raise them a few B.Spears-Federlines and Carmen Electras. Pam Anderson could probably take three or four dudes at a time.
Get Fox News on the line, we have genius amongst us.

As if the world needed it, here's yet another
reason to hate the French. Here in the South, that kind of behavior is reprehensible, consider most of us prefer the company of a Black Lab or a Redbone Hound to that of just about any person. But damn, those French fishermen are

More disposable than stray dogs and cats? There's no such thing!

Logic
If all elephants are large, and some elephants are pink, are all pink elephants large?
The answer, of course, is yes.
LetÂ’s try another one.
If Sean Penn roams New Orleans in a sinking johnboat with his photographer and press people, does that make him a flaming asshole?
And if, on top of that, he ‘comes ashore’ and roams the streets carrying a loaded shotgun like a wild buccaneer, does that upgrade his status to “one incredibly fucked-up individual nearing the level of political omnipresence only previously held by Bono”?
Yes. Yes, it does.
Does he look bat-shit crazy or what?

Basically, though, he's wrong. Kanye, though his premise is incorrect, is right because there are plenty of people who AGREE with him. Percieved wrongs are still wrongs. No one felt bad making peasants pay taxes, but that didn't mean that the revolutionaries didn't guillotine their asses.
Posted by: the sis. at September 12, 2005 02:02 PM (fhBQD)
2
The sad thing here, is that people actually assume that Kanye knows what the hell he's talking about. For some reason, the widespread logic is that fame=intelligence; when it has been shown in reality to have an almost negative correlation.
This is why I have decided that when I eventually become famous, I will use this associative power over the idiot masses to have them doing the chicken dance in leiderhosen. That way, we'll be able to easily identify those whose voting rights should be suspended.
Posted by: shank at September 12, 2005 02:52 PM (+H1yK)
3
But I disagree;
most people know Kanye doesn't really know what he's talking about. I.e., People are addicted to gossip magazines, but they know the mags are silly. I think people agree with his sentiment if not his facts. And as far as speaking to the black experience in the US, Kanye knows what he's talking about in a way that I cannot.
Posted by: sis at September 12, 2005 02:59 PM (fhBQD)

The people Kanye speaks to probably have no idea he's an idiot, or he wouldn't have been invited on TV. Furthermore, his race is not a qualifier for expert status on race policy in America. Just because I'm part of the healthcare industry, doesn't mean I'm qualified to give any kind of treatment.
Posted by: shank at September 12, 2005 03:26 PM (+H1yK)
5
Health care and racial experiences are different, though. Kanye wasn't giving treatment, he was stating his opinion. And he wasn't invited by people who value his opinion, either, he was invited to read a script. I'm not agreeting with him, but you can't just call him an idiot and be done with it, because plenty of people think he's right. You have to
prove him wrong.
Posted by: sis at September 12, 2005 05:22 PM (fhBQD)
6
Oh,no. Definitely not. You don't prove a negative. Kanye has to prove that he's right. Until then, he's an idiot.

Martial Law
It seems thereÂ’s a key element missing from the martial law in New Orleans. You canÂ’t declare martial law when thereÂ’s no actual
martial aspect. That’s the key element. It’s like calling out “Bingo!” when you haven’t actually filled your card.
“Storm victims were raped and beaten, fights and fires broke out, corpses lay out in the open, and rescue helicopters and law enforcement officers were shot at as flooded-out New Orleans descended into anarchy Thursday.”
I donÂ’t know how many hours itÂ’s been since this catastrophe started but it looks like they're edging closer to
Lord of the Flies every day.
Rape? All I can say is that IÂ’ve never seen a more comprehensive advertisement for gun ownership in my life. The scariest part of this whole thing is how many days have gone by with no law and order.
IÂ’ve never been a
moving to Montana kind of guy, but seeing how the government (at every level) has handled this fiasco I might have to do a re-think. What if this was dirty bomb? ItÂ’s become quite clear that in times of desperation you should be prepared to protect your family because no one will do it for you.
And while most of us are civilized people who respect our neighbors and our community, itÂ’s clear that not all of our society has reached that plateau. We obviously have members of society who are parasites, void of all decency and human compassion. Animals who would take advantage of a desperate situation and prey on others at levels beyond comprehension.
I canÂ’t help but think what would happen if a small nuke went off somewhere in America. Right now IÂ’m wondering what the response time would be if we were invaded by a hoard of Canadian coin collectors, and if theyÂ’d be able to take several states before FEMA, the Feds and Barney Fife collaborated on a plan to stop the carnage.
I know that among the cops and guardsmen on the scene there are probably many fine men, heroes even, who are going above and beyond their duty. I know there are citizens who are helping their neighbors. Good men standing tall. But IÂ’m not too impressed with the people running the show.
I fully realize that the media is showcasing the bad news. But if youÂ’re one of those people who believe that when a catastrophe strikes in America, 10,000 navy seals led by John Rambo will immediately swoop from the sky carry your ass to a nice cozy B & B with fluffy pillows--youÂ’re delusional.
More:
• Police snipers were stationed on the roof of their precinct, trying to protect it from armed miscreants roaming seemingly at will.
• "They have quite a few people running around here with guns," he said. "You got these young teenage boys running around up here raping these girls."
• Charity Hospital, one of several facilities attempting to evacuate patients, was forced to halt the effort after coming under sniper fire.
Convinced yet?

Agreed. I have been feeling sick these last few days. This shit is next door to me. I believe all fast food places should close for a week and donate all stocks to relief effort. Those people need it, other people's waist lines need it. I can't think of anything else. This is a complete collapse of government. All I know is, they might as well go ahead and make Hillary pres, cause who in the hell will vote Republican in 08? I'm a third party guy myself, and I am sick of Bush sucking Mexico's cock and letting his own country rot before his monkey eyes. Perception is NOT reality, but for a whole lotta folks it might as well be. I know I am just blithering on about crap, but I gotta let it out somewhere, this shit is eating at me. I hope the militia you start in Montana has room for one extra gunman, Shank. I mean honestly... All I can ask is what the hell is going on? Is this a huge natural disaster, or is this the start of something much larger?

I don't think anyone expected things to degenerate into chaos like that. Misery and suffering, yeah, but to have a significant chunk of the population instantly decide that the rules have been repealed, well, that's just freaking scary.

We got power back a couple of days ago. I live in south Alabama... Close to the beach. We rode it out here in our trailor. Luckily we live in a low area, so winds don't bother us as much.
Anyways, wow. I really can't describe the gloom around here. I can't find gas.. People at my work can't even come in because they have no gas. New Orleans is about two to three hours drive from here. What is going on over there is unimaginable. Completely unimaginable. Ireally don't know where I am going with this post.. Just kinda in shock.

The only good looter
IÂ’ve avoided saying anything about New Orleans since the ordeal has actually taken place but I have to voice an opinion here before I have a stroke over it.
ItÂ’s quite simple really. Death to all looters. IÂ’ve been through hurricanes, including Andrew--a category five storm. IÂ’ve been without power for weeks, had nothing to eat, the whole nine yards. However, as miserable as that was for me, I had a lot going for me. I still had a structure to live in. Damaged, to be sure, but I still had most of my possessions and a leaky roof over my head.
These poor bastards on the gulf coast have
nothing left in many, many instances. Nothing. The sum total of their lives has been wiped fucking clean. They have nowhere to go and no hope for the foreseeable future. And anyone who would take advantage of a situation like this is beyond my contempt.
Looters have already shot a cop in the head in New Orleans. I would have no problem executing these savages with no remorse.
From
here:
“A giant new Wal-Mart in New Orleans was looted, and the entire gun collection was taken, The Times-Picayune reported. "There are gangs of armed men in the city moving around the city," said Ebbert, the city's homeland security chief. Also, looters tried to break into Children's Hospital, the governor's office said.”
My response would be to end this problem right now. IÂ’m a martial law kind of guy. One warning shot below the waist before I unload a clip.
IÂ’ve never been big on leniency.

I think they actually instituted martial law yesterday. What they should do, is put the notice out that in twelve hours, all looters will be shot on sight. That way, there's time for the word to get around. I mean, armed robbery is armed robbery. If you need medical/gorcery supplies, contact some of the military personnel in the area and they will undoubtedly escort you into a store while you pick out the items you need. How do I know they'll do this? Because one of the guys I used to work with moved to NO a while back. He wasn't able to get out of the French Quarter (essential hospital staff usually have to stay in town at some point or another during hurricanes) and he's down there setting up a clinic in the Ritz Carlton on Canal Street. They went into a CVS under armed escort and were able to get all the supplies they needed to throw together a MASH-type clinic in the hotel bar. Their escot actually had to hold looters back at gunpoint while they got the stuff they needed. Looters are only making a bad situation worse, and if they gotta die, they gotta die. I'm sure people will whine, but if you don't want to die all you have to do is not steal stuff. Sounds pretty simple to me.

Blogger now flagging “Objectionable Material”
Next time you visit a “blogspot” blog you’ll notice a new little flag you can click if you find the content objectionable. They claim on the site that they’re not endorsing censorship and even add the line, “…we prefer to keep in mind that one person's vulgarity is another's poetry.”
Fair enough. Maybe.
“We track the number of times a blog has been flagged as objectionable and use this information to determine what action is needed.”
Now I have to ask, wouldnÂ’t the world at large benefit more if they had a flag to click if the content just plain sucked? Or the blogger was an asshole? Because IÂ’m here to tell you, I really see more potential in going that route.

It wouldn't do anything. However...
We could stick it up there and have it point to any page we want. Including one we could write that could say something extremely offensive. Not a bad idea, really. Or we could link the flag to a totally outragous gay pr0n site.
That would teach them.
Posted by: Paul at August 30, 2005 03:01 PM (vbP6L)

Yeah, but I think people would start complaining to Pixy if we had an offensive link on our site. That might be a nono.
Which is too bad too, because I have a perfectly disgusting, horrifying link, the kind of link that makes you wonder if there's anything worth saving in this screwed up world. If it didn't stir an immediate and physically violent objection in someone, you might want to check their pulse. Definitely too bad.

The best idea IÂ’ve heard in a while, courtesy of the
Borowitz Report:
“
ARMY TO RECRUIT AT MTV MUSIC AWARDS
Rappers Could Skip Firearms Training, Pentagon Believes
He said that by recruiting soldiers at the MTV Music Awards, the Army would be gaining a pool of enlistees who would require no firearms training whatsoever, saving the Pentagon and U.S. taxpayers billions of dollars a year.
“Teaching these guys how to use a gun would be a serious waste of time,” Mr. Rumsfeld said. “It would be like teaching Courtney Love how to snort powder up her nose.”
While the Defense Secretary would not specify how the Army would induce rappers to enlist, he told reporters, “We are fully prepared to offer them a Cadillac Escalade, and we may throw in a ho or two as well.”
Meanwhile, I've got nothing.

Time for an intervention?
My old lady and I are both addicted to French Market brand coffee. ItÂ’s from New Orleans and quite simply, no other coffee will do.
Over the weekend the old lady started to comb all the local grocery stores and buy as many cans of the stuff as she could get her hands on. SheÂ’s afraid that if the hurricane hits New Orleans we could be without our beloved French Market coffee for months. Moments ago, I received this email from my wife:
“I bought two more cans at the store today (all they had) and I plan to continue cleaning out the other stores for all I can find. I hope I can beat others to it. I’m sure that most normal people are still worried about the loss of life and destruction of property. I’m worried about that too, of course, but I’ve been addicted to this coffee for over a decade. I don’t know if I can live without it.
You could say that I am also worried about the destruction of property, it’s just that I’m concerned with one specific place: The French Market Coffee Company.”
Emphasis mine.

Pervert gets a good beating
I live for stuff
like this. Some wack-job broke into a house five nights in a row to steal a womanÂ’s panties. The womanÂ’s husband was understandably pissed off and set up a home made alarm with a bra, string and coffee cup. When the thief set off the alarm the husband beat the living shit out of him
with a wooden leg from his childÂ’s crib. The affidavit makes for an entertaining read. And of course, thereÂ’s a picture of the thief all beat to hell.
Oh, I forgot, and the perv kept his collection of panties in a lunchbox next to his bed.

55 freakin' pounds of panties... what is that, about 500? 750? I guess it depends on how clean they are.

Mental Math
Sorry I haven't been blogging lately, but I've been in the hospital. It's nothing serious, I've just been reading too much news lately. See, I was perusing my favorite stock market site the other day and found out that apparently, there's
no reason for oil prices to be so high. According to that guy they're
inflated. Hmph.
Then over the next few days some big oil company's turn in earnings.
Marathon doubles their earnings this year,
Exxon's increase by a third, then
Shell does them one or two better. It's good to know that when I pay $2.36 a gallon at the pump that it's not all going straight into some fatcat's pocket right? How much have gas prices increased in the past year? Little over a third right? The frustration begins to set in.
Then I click on over to CNN, where I read that a
bill has just been passed that "sends billions of dollars in tax breaks and subsidies to energy companies, but is expected to do little to reduce U.S. oil consumption or dampen high energy prices." Sa-weet!
So while I'm paying out my broke ass for gasoline, it's not because supply is shortening or internal costs are increasing; it's because these fat oil bastards are eating so much Alaskan crab and Crystal that their Armani suits don't fit anymore and they've got to get new ones stiched every month or so. And when these rich big oil motherfucks do their taxes at the end of the year, they get to write of
billions. What the fuck is going on? That's when the doc said the aneurysm hit. I passed out in my chair, my head went forward onto the desk table, and I suffered a mild concussion. Good thing I was surfing the net at work, or I probably would've never been found.

You FOOLS.
So, the Islamists really did a number this time in London hey? Speaking of numbers, which they seem so fascinated with, how 'bout these numbers.
July 7th, 1940 was the day Hitler chose to begin his London Blitz. I'm sure those cheeky fucks sat aroung their Afghan cave chuckling to eachother about the irony of the day they chose to inflict terror on the British people.
Well, you friggin knuckleheads, in your effort to be all...numerical and cipher-oriented and shit, you forgot one thing about history in general. It tends to repeat itslef and if memory serves, London couldn't be broken by the barrage the Luftwaft unleashed on them, so I
seriously fucking doubt a few mujihadeen with Jansports full of pipe bombs is going to bring a people like that to their knees. Even the IRA, after thirty years of bombing, has decided to take a more diplomatic route.
Furthermore, these British people are crazy. Maybe you guys haven't ever heard of rugby, but it's kind of a cross between ice hockey and boxing, but without all the pansy-ass pads and gloves. And these people do that for
fun. You thought it sucked when the US started bombing your ass into the stone age, wait 'til the fucking Manchester United fans get a hold of you. I once partied with some of them after a soccer match, and they had a glass-eating contest. Two guys would face off, slam their pints, smash the glass on the other's forehead and eat the shards that were stuck in his dome. First one to clean his plate gets a free round. And that was after a winning match mind you. I'm telling ya, they're nuts. Good luck with that.

I Fought the Law, and the Law Didn't Make Any Damn Sense.
So, I was driving home Friday night and I stopped at the gorcery store to pick up some beers. I came out of the grocery store parking lot and hopped onto the main road. Maybe a second later I see those old familiar blue lights flashing in my rearview. Fuck
Fuck 1) because I hate getting pulled over. I have a great driving record and it seems like cops know that and they try to fuck it up all the time. Fuck 2) because I had four drinks in the past 80 minutes or so.
I pull over immediately, flick on the dome light, and start fishing for my registration. Cop walks up and syas something obligatory. I ask what's up, I know I wasn't speeding. "Well, you blew the stop sign pulling out of the Food Lion back there," he says it like I did it to tease him.
"Oh damn. Honestly, I didn't even know there was one there."
"Have you had anything to drink tonight?"
Shit. I sigh. "Yeah, had four drinks."
"When was the last one?"
"Ah, 'bout fifteen minutes or so ago."
"Mind if I ask you to take a breathalyzer test?"
Shit. I sigh. "I guess not, no." I breathe into the tube, he says, "Well, looks like you blew a .09; right above the legal limit."
I die inside.
"But since you just had your last drink, I'm going back to the car and I'll be back in a few minutes." He returns to the cruiser.
So I'm sitting in my car, reviewing the scenarios sprinting through my mind; wondering why the hell he didn't show me the breathalyzer. I scrape my tongue, swear under my breath, check the rearview. Shit.
Cop comes back, I breathe. "Still showing a .09 pal." Fails again to show me the breathalyzer. "But by the time I get you downtown, you'll be below the legal limit, and you're less than a mile from home. I'll cut you a deal here sir. You get out of the car, walk home, and I'll just give you the ticket for running the stop sign. I've got to run, but I don't want to see you driving this car."
"Thank you officer." I'm releived, confused, but glad that my life hasn't been screwed up. I grab the beers, a few items from the car, lock it up and begin the short walk home.
Now, after getting home and reviewing the events and checking my ticket out; I come to some weird conclusions:
1. The back of the ticket is not filled out. It doesn't say if I have to appear in court, fines, court costs; nothing. I remember him saying I had to go to court, but the entire back side of the ticket was left blank.
2. I never saw the breathalyser results. I've never had to take one without the cop showing me my results.
3. There's no stop sign pulling out of the grocery store and onto the main avenue. I went back the next day just out of curiosity and there's nothing.
I talked to a few lawyer friends and they think I should take a few pics and fight the ticket. I wonder if I could just mail the ticket in with a picture in the envelope. Case closed right?

If there was no stop sign, what the hell is the ticket for?

The ticket is for running a stop sign. I guess he thought there was one there, and I have this habit of not arguing with people who carry guns. I spoke with a friend last night, and he said it was bogus and I should try fighting it.

Two ways to look at it.
1. Take a picture of no stop sign and fight the damned thing. You did nothing wrong. Of course, you live in the South and that might incite some haybender cop to make a hobbie out of you and constantly harrass you, up to and including the night stick enema. I don't know...I'm afraid of hillbillies, so I keep a low profile south of Delaware.
2. Pay the ticket and chalk it up to the Gods that you didn't get a blood test and a DUI.
I guess it all comes down to the ticket cost. Or go down and see Andy and Aunt Bee, they may be able to straighten it out.

I'm going to talk to one other friend and see what he thinks my chances are. I'm probably going to try and fight it anyways just cause it's kind of in my nature. I have considered more than once though, the consequences of pissing off a local cop.

Jackson's Just a Minor Leaguer Compared to This Playa
When your neighbor has so many sexual encounters that he keeps them catalouged in the thousands by sexual encounter, personality type, and hair color; you know he's gotta be a pimp.
Or a felony child abuser.
What I though was interesting was the way the article described repeat child abusers. People who use their power and position to lure needy or easily corruptable children into easily controllable situations. And this guy's been doing it for like 30 years or something without every registering as a sex offender. I mean, what's it going to take to put a child molester away? Do we have to wait until my kid comes back from the playground walking crooked or what?

Michael Blagg
So last night there was this thing on TV called "48 Hours: Mysteries'. The episdoe they did was on a guy named Michael Blagg who was convicted of murdering his wife and daughter. Without any hard evidence or even eyewitness testimony.
Apparently, he wife was shot in their home, taken to a dump, and left there wrapped in a tent. his daughter was never found. Blagg's alibi is that he was at work that day; he even left voicemail messages for his wife and child on their home answering machine.
They never matched the bullet in the wife to a gun owned by Blagg. They never said his alibi wasn't true. I mean, if he was at work, people would remember it, the timeclocks and surveillance video would prove it. The neighbors don't remember hearing a gunshot in the iddle of the night, or seeing the family van leave at odd hours. There is nothing connecting this man to his wife's murder except circumstantial bullshit.
The best part is, a witness for the prosecution (the wife's mother no less); admits to making shit up on the stand. She got up there and made up her testimony as it popped into her head, saying that Blagg choked his wife once. She continues to go on saying she never reported the incident, and has never spoken about it until that very moment in the courtroom. She got up on the stand and was allowed to make an unbased, unverifiable testimmony of something that may or may not have happened years ago. Shitty.
The media made him out to be a cheating (a claim later revealed to be completely unfounded and untrue) porn addict. The media reported all this shit for a year or something until the trial date, inundating this small community with all sorts of fucked up opinions. Needless to say, by the time jury selection came around everyone had already made up their minds. The public defender didn't stand a chance against such fools, and he went to jail.
I can't imagine coming home from work to find your wife and child dead. I can't imagine not being able to join the searches for them because the media made people think it would be a conflict of interest. I can't imagine being sentanced to life in prison with no hope of parole, when the two people you love most in the world aren't even alive to come visit you. It's like a fucking horror story.
Honestly, I'd kill myself before I'd ever go to jail for some shit I didn't do.

I knew Mike Blagg personally for several years. I thought he was a great guy, but based on the evidence presented there is no question whatsoever that he is guilty. You should watch the story again, because you have many of the facts completely wrong.
**** Blagg's alibi is that he was at work that day; he even left voicemail messages for his wife and child on their home answering machine. ****
Uh, yeah, he did. While she was lying dead in the dumpster, having been killed in the wee hours of the morning preceding. Security video shows Blagg coming in earlier than normal. His coworkers report him behaving very suspiciously, dumping large boxes in the dumpster and refusing help with those boxes. He also went around the building emptying everyone's trash so that the dumpster would have to be emptied. His wife's body was later found in a pile of garbage from Blagg's workplace.
*** The neighbors don't remember hearing a gunshot in the iddle of the night, or seeing the family van leave at odd hours. ***
What is your point? The neighbors didn't hear a gunshot, yet one clearly occured, unless your theory is that all that blood got there by magic. What does that have to do with WHO fired the shot? Similarly, the van was obviously used to transport the body, since there was her blood in it.
Plain and simple, when strangers murder someone in their house they do not move the body. What would be the point?

JJ, thanks for shedding some light. You're right, I was only familiar with the facts as they were presented on TV. When I say it out loud like that, I realize now that may have been a mistake. I was reeled in by media sensationalism! I am a
whore!
Mmm. I feel all cleansed now.

Sound Off
Michael Jackson. What can I say - luckiest child molester I know.
1. Has America made such idols of it's celebrities that we cannot convict them of any misdeeds? See also, O.J., Robert Blake.
2. There is a difference between doubt and reasonable doubt. I guess defense attorneys have done such a great job blurring the line between the two, that they are now interchangeable terms. If a man allows young boys to drink alcohol in his presence, shows this his porno stash, and then asks them to join him in bed; how can you
possibly reasonably doubt what his intentions are? If I did the same to a woman my age my intentions would be pretty damn clear, and I would assume if I did the same to a child my inetions would get my happy ass sent to jail.
3. Even if Michael is suffering from some sort of advanced Peter Pan Syndrome, why would he be interested in sex, porn, and alcohol? These are all things that adults become interested in. If his aim was purely to find a playmate, why would he sleep with them? How many of the fellas out there had sleepovers where you got into daddy's liquor cabinet, looked through his porno, and then all climbed in bed together?
He's a sick fucker, and he should have at least gone down for attempt to molest and the alcohol charges. It's a complete boondoggle; and I hope we see him in court again.
And did anyone get a load of those damn jurors? What a bunch of
fucktards

Porn+Booze+Sleeping with little boys=child molester
I was never great at math, but somehow even I know the answer.
Dangling baby + Hotel window= Unfit father
My math is improving almost daily.
