Thursday, February 10th, 2011After 17 years on this job – with a two year-stint in Narcotics – you expect drug dealers and users to be creative when it comes to hiding their stash. Pat downs don’t do the trick anymore. Nowadays you need to fully inspect the thug’s pockets, waistband, socks, shoes, and more. The worst example was [...]
The Funniest Headline Of The Day
Thursday, February 10th, 2011This one comes to us from that bastion of journalism, US Magazine: Kim Kardashian: I Gained 10 Pounds on “Street Meat” in New York Fantastic, no? And check out the money quote from Kardashian: “I ate the nuts on the street corner, the hot dogs, the street meat.” Ladies and gentlemen, start your double entendre!
Here They Come To Snuff The Rooster
Thursday, February 10th, 2011A California cockfight – heh, heh, “cockfight” – turned fatal this week after a man was stabbed to death. Now, normally when I go to cockfights I expect to see the roosters suffering the injuries. Rarely do you see one of the spectators go down. Jose Luis Ochoa is apparently the exception to the rule. [...]
Justified Is Back!

Central Bucks Teacher Suspended Over Blog
Wednesday, February 9th, 2011Thankfully, Natalie Munroe teaches English and not Civics at Central Bucks East High School, so the irony of suspending a woman for exercising her First Amendment rights is not so thick. But hey, when a liberal public school district has to choose between a teacher and some ignorant, misbehaved students, the choice of whom to [...]
Once Again, Philly Is The Butt Of The Joke
Wednesday, February 9th, 2011My fantastic city is in the news again. Detectives are investigating a case of illegal plastic surgery gone horribly wrong, and a woman is dead because of it. Like Forrest Gump, this woman was also shot in the buttocks. Unlike Mr. Gump, this woman did not survive. A British woman who came to Philadelphia to [...]

It’s True: Butter Can Kill You
Tuesday, February 8th, 2011Wait, Michelle Obama was right??? An Italian couple tried to commit the perfect crime. Like most purveyors of criminal perfection, they failed miserably. But many of you may be impressed with their unique methods. A Sicilian couple thought they had the perfect weapon to get rid of her ex-husband – a slab of butter which [...]
Fast Eddie Rendell, Wife Divorce
Tuesday, February 8th, 2011Surprised? Don’t be. Rendell’s out of office, so the charade can come to a bitter end. [F]ormer Gov. Rendell and his wife Marjorie announced they are splitting up after 40 years of marriage. In a brief e-mail to friends today, the Rendells said that they have decided to “embark upon this next phase of our [...]
Happy Birthday, Mrs. Earp!
Tuesday, February 8th, 2011Today is the lovely and talented Mrs. Earp’s birthday. Since I’m not a complete idiot, I won’t be mentioning her age, but suffice to say, she’s younger than I am. Mrs. Earp single-handedly runs the Earp Ranch, and does it so rather flawlessly. I mean, let’s be honest: I’m as useless as teat on a [...]
