Happy Weekend and a Middle Finger to Mitt



My dogs ride inside the car, bitch.

I'm Getting Soft




The Kendall County Sheriff's Department has launched an internal investigation into an alleged incident involving an off-duty deputy pulling a gun on a pregnant woman in a Walmart express lane.

Just one week from her due date, Nicole Thurmond said she feared for her life while checking out at a Walmart store in Oswego on a recent Sunday.

"I felt someone close behind me. He started being really rude and said, 'Don't you know how to count? You are holding up the whole store," Thurmond recalled.

Thurmond said she didn't know it at the time, but the man in plain clothes was off-duty deputy Craig French.
Thurmond's husband had been getting eggs at the time and said he could see his wife was upset when he returned to the checkout area.

"There was a guy in her face, yelling at her," said Jason Thurmond. "In an aggressive manner he steps toward me, and I just push him back to keep him away from my wife and myself, and before I knew it I just froze because he pulled out a gun."

Jason Thurmond said the man didn't show his badge, was "waving a gun in a store," and at one point asked them if they were on welfare.

"At one point I turned by back to him, because I was afraid if it did go off, at least it hits my backside and not in the front where my baby is," said Nicole Thurmond.

The couple said that only after he waved the gun did the man identify himself as a sheriff's deputy.

Jason Thurmond was arrested and charged with misdemeanor battery for the shove he admits he gave the deputy. The Thurmonds have since filed a formal complaint with the department.

"I'm a big believer in karma. Someday he'll be the one who can't move very fast. He'll see," said the expectant mother.

The Kendall County Sheriff's Department said in a statement the incident is under an internal investigation to determine if the deputy’s actions "are consistent with the rules and regulations of the Sheriff’s Office."

The investigation is separate from any criminal investigation by Oswego Police, the department said in a statement.

I was honestly all set to make some jokes about too many items in the express check out and how it's a slippery slope when it comes to the law (and also about how those two people intercoursed each other enough to have a 5th kid on the way because I'm not sure how certain body parts reached other body parts), but I can't do it.  If a friggin' sheriff's deputy pulled a gun on my wife I would be going berserk.  I do not know, for the life of me, how these people are so calm.  The fact that the husband was arrested is just bizarro world stuff. 

F*ckin' A, between Mitt Romney and this sheriff's deputy, I am in a really bad place the last 24 hours.

PS:  I dig this lady's guilt/karma swag though:  "I'm a big believer in karma. Someday he'll be the one who can't move very fast. He'll see," said the expectant mother.

You can totally tell she's already a mom.  Laying guilt trips like a pro.  She's not mad at the deputy, she's just disappointed.  Bro probably hung himself as soon as he heard that.

PPS:  Lauren Jiggets bringing some heat.  It also looks like she threw a coat on and is standing in front of a green screen.  I can't blame her, I wouldn't want to go to Wal Mart either.

Not A Lot Going on In Athens


Police: Bored men pretend to enforce speeding law

ATHENS, GA (AP) -
Police say two Georgia men tried to fool a motorist into thinking they had a radar gun, then tried to stop the driver near Athens.
The motorist was an off-duty Athens-Clarke County police officer, who pulled them over instead.
Police tell the Athens Banner-Herald the two men in a pickup used a rolled-up magazine to appear they were using radar on U.S. Highway 441 in Oconee County Tuesday. Police say the men "peeled out" after the off-duty officer with their headlights flashing and were mouthing the words "pull over."
The officer called sheriff's officials, who stopped them. Police say one of the men said they got bored, so they decided to try and stop some cars.
The men, ages 25 and 24, were let go with no charges filed.
I've been there.  Not exactly to the point where I rolled up a newspaper and tried to pull people over, but I've been bored.  These dudes need to get together with our buddy John Hughes from Montana and go to police camp or something.  I mean is this really any worse than the time an actual cop pulled my sister-in-law over just to get her name, then looked up her phone number to call her and ask her out?
I think they could come up with something better than a rolled up magazine, though.  If they want to fake people out in the big time cities like Athens, GA, you may need more than this:

Check Out This Smug Prick



There was another video I wanted to post, but I couldn't embed it, so this one will suffice.  I don't try to get political on this blog, but I had to throw this out there.  I was never going to vote for Romney.  However, I question anyone who would strap their family dog to the roof of their car for 12 hours.  I will readily admit, I am a sap for dogs.  Dogs are F*CKING AWESOME.  Then there's Nit Mitt backpedaling about not knowing the law and saying his dog loved it up there.  Throwing his dog under the bus (no pun intended), and not understanding that this has nothing to do with the law -classic.

I am at a loss for words.  All I can say is that when Hitler thinks your being inhumane, you really have to reevaluate your life.



To channel Tupac...

F*ck Mitt Romney as a staff, a campaign, and a mutha f*ckin' crew.  And if you wanna be down with Mitt Romney, then f*ck you too.

Stuck In My Head



I worked until about 7:30 last night, went home, watched the Cs lose to the Lakers and the Llama, then was pretty much praying for death this morning.  I get to work and find out that a coworker called in sick, so I have to meet with his two clients.

I love doing other people's jobs!  Now, don't get me wrong.  If you're sick, stay the f*ck home and away from me, but can't you just get sick when you don't have people coming in to meet with you?
