You'll be posting "I'd hit it" by nightfall.
LOL!
Uh, I mean, “AAUUUUGGGHHH!!!”
LOL! I just listened to a story on the radio on the way into work this morning. Perp was described as "Young male, 18-25, over 6' tall".
Idiot newsreader just described half of the people I work with, along with a goodly portion of those I've seen today. Why bother?
I hate PC-ism. I'll go out on a limb here and assume that if the perp was a white, middle-aged, middle-class male, they'd have listed his clothing, age, weight, SSN, DOB, and last 5 addresses.
Great idea.
Hope he enjoys his Change while he can.
lol
And your offer of coffee is probably doing the folks inside a favor (providing them with a short break) if her singing isn’t that great.
Did the bell ringer take their picture(s) with his cell phone?..
Wouldnt happen in Alaska everybody is packin.. even the grannys..
Do you hit them first?
I checked your profile to see if you are from my town! LOL! The next time I go to the grocery store, I'm taking this lady a pair of gloves. It's been very cold and windy, and feel bad for her. The last time I donated, I asked her how the kettles were doing this year. She said I was the 2nd person to donate, after 2 hours. Sad!
Crackheads
Whenever the financial take on a crime is so low that the risk-reward calculation does not make any sense whatsoever, look for drugs to be involved.
(Exhibit A being the Pittsburgh thief who held up a Dairy Queen three blocks from his house in the middle of February. He is going away for armed robbery and he cleared a whole $23 on that caper. But it was in a neighborhood known for petty dope fiends).
