Police Attack Man Singing " Beach Boys" Tune

Officer Robert Busch also stated that Jim Ochse “became very hostile and began yelling in my face” when he first approached him for singing in front of a crowded restaurant.

Busch also wrote in his report that Ochse remained defiant even after being slammed to the pavement, keeping “his arms so tense that I could not move them or get the handcuffs on the defendant.”

As a result, he charged Ochse with disorderly conduct and resisting arrest, according to The Morning Call.

***** A 61-year-old man happily singing a Beach Boys song in front of a crowded restaurant in Pennsylvania was violently body slammed by a cop before he was carted off to jail Friday.

But Allentown police have yet to tell Jim Ochse what charges he is facing, assuring the self-employed athletic trainer that he will be cited by mail – most likely waiting for the videos to surface before concocting their narrative.

Already, two videos have surfaced, thwarting their initial plan to claim Ochse had touched the officer, which, of course, would given the officer the green light to pound his skull into the pavement.

Instead, the videos show that Ochse was attempting to walk away when the cop grabbed him and slammed him down on the pavement in front of shocked witnesses eating and drinking at Shula’s Steakhouse in downtown Allentown while two security guards in dark suits stood passively watching.

The guards apparently told Louisa Ranis Soos, one of the women who recorded the incident, that Osche had touched the officer. This is how she described the incident after posting her video to

Yes, Beach Boys music has always sent me into a homicidal rage, too...

Rap and grand opera set me off.

The people videoing him were enjoying him. Less than 2 minutes of him walking up, the cops are on the scene. Let there be someone getting mugged or worse, it would take them far longer. The guy had already turned around to walk away when the cop grabbed him, spun him around and body slammed him onto the cement. Mail him the charges? That cop should be fired immediately.

This is not Ochse's first criminal case. In 2013, Ochse broke into his ex-wife's home while she was away, used the computer and slept over, Salisbury Township police said. Ochse pleaded guilty to criminal trespass and criminal mischief, and was sentenced to 88 days to 23 months in county jail, court records show.

Oooh, yeah, he's a big bad guy. Bet he even rummaged through the fridge. Fine for his ex to be mad but that's more time than Bruce Jenner will get for killing his neighbor.

Then there was “Brown Eyed Girl” which to those of us in certain parts of the world had it “Round Eyed Girl” then there was the ‘Brown Eye thing....
If you know, you know. If you don’t, don’t ask me’ <: <:

On same note a ‘popular thing these days is ‘Corn Hole’ and I see ‘Corn Hole’ tournaments taking place.
I certainly hope that it isn’t the same ‘cornhole’ I seem to remember. (not that there is anything wrong with that).

And the kid talking about his ‘favorite’ Christmas songs.

“The one about the twobrothers - Mark and Harold Angels.”

Those are classic!

I seem to recall hearing about a website which listed all of the misunderstood lyrics to various rock n' roll tunes, I CAN say that when I was working in radio many many moons ago, my boss (who once worked at WSM in Nashville) told me "listen to this!" and he took a vinyl record of George Jones 'He Stopped Loving Her Today', put the record in 'cue' (not for broadcast) and spun the record backwards, and instead of hearing the opening line, "He said I'll love you 'til I die", as clear as a bell, I heard ol' George say "eeeeeat a lot o' sh*t!".

LMAO I did!
