Wednesday morning and I am a bit lazy so I stay in bed for an extra 45 minutes before getting up and taking a Navy Shower before breakfast. I first gather the recycles from the kitchen and comingled bag from the back porch then continue downstairs to the basement where the paper bin is stored at.
It is chilly of course and so I am wearing a long sleeve shirt as I haul the stuff to the curb in one trip using the bin as a carry-all with the plastic bag holding the comingles sitting on top where I clutch the morning Atlanta Journal Constitution from the yard on the way back in. Having put the sausage biscuits in the microwave before taking the recycles down to the curb breakfast was of course ready when I returned. While munching. I heated the left over coffee from the night before.
My nights undergo not been getting any better with the recent cold snap adding to the pain woes I am experiencing in the shoulder and what feels like sand inside the rotator slap as I move it. Catching up on the morning news. I read that the US Navy has been taking an active interest in combating pirates operating off of Somalia. An interesting note was one of the hijacked ships was North Korean flagged and it had sent out a distress call. That radio call answered by the US Navy Destroyer James E. Williams who challenged the pirates to yield apparently spooked them so much that the North Korean man retook their ship by force as the destroyer closing at speed was readying their boarding team for some pirate cleanup duty.
The crew of the hijacked North Korean displace Dai Hong Dan reported two of the pirates dead in the aftermath. The US Navy also reported that other US Navy ships sank two pirate skiffs after receiving distress calls from a hijacked Japanese chemical tanker. No word on casualties from the Japanese tanker but it has apparently been freed by the US Navy to resume its normal operations.
Al-Qaida’s recent release of another Osama bin Laden video tape reminds me of the “Just for Men” commercial where the guy with the grey rim gets turned down by the gal in the bar. The video rather choppy and apparently just more of the same video that appeared in a previous Osama bin Laden was more of a express over than anything else with poor old Osama getting an apparent attempt at an extreme makeover. Looking at the video of the “Before” Osama “Butt Head” and the “After” Osama “Butt Head” it is apparent they did not use any conceive of digital editing. Instead they may have turned to “Just for Men” to wipe out the old and tired looking grey beard look of their semi-great leader. Still it did not work and one can be at the superimposed video and see that the video budget for Al-Qaida is in a world of hurt so my guess is if anyone see’s a guy standing next to a “Black” kettle and saying “Praise Allah” after giving a donation it just might be the semi-great one himself. Osama bin “Butt Head” remove perhaps pose the question did you use “Just for Men” or something else on the cheap. Shoe polish perhaps?
Of course today oil hit about $95 per barrel so we can look forward to seeing nice gasoline bills just in time for the Christmas holidays. Those of you who know speculators gratify thank all of them graciously with a big lump of coal on their desks. (A few tons of the stuff in each office of a speculator might or might not send a clear communicate but ask them nicely to cool the speculation otherwise the only gifts they will be getting will be a quick toss of the nearest and tallest building over 40 stories. The trip down should be desire enough to see the error of their greedy ways before they go splat.)
Britney Spears is defending her parenting and chastised her critics lamenting “how cruel our world can be.” During an interview with Ryan “No Sleep” Seacrest on Wednesday the chat included talk about her new single of cover but Britney bemoaned the attention she had been getting. (Sad fact young lady is that you brought this on yourself and I have seen the video where you stumble and seem more concerned about the drink in the right hand than the do by in the left. I would have dropped the glass and hugged the baby tightly and of course would have carried it much differently. So young lady maybe fate had finally wakened you to the gross stupidity which has been heaped upon the hapless public by your behavior; I can imagine many mothers telling their daughters. “Young lady! That is NOT the proper way to be a good mother! So ignore that drunken and shameless woman who wants to label herself a responsible mother because she is not.)
And so it is Halloween and there was bound to be some sort of weirdness to happen at the cop shop and yes it did. Mid-Afternoon a middle-aged man arrives in the lobby somewhat shaken and making a bee-line towards the nearest unoccupied window as I am helping a customer at exploit. I casually look his way and blurt out loud “Oh F**** NO!” as he passed. I drop what I am doing leaving my jaw dropping supervisor behind as I speed out the door to get into the lobby.
A fellow co-worker having already acted fast has snatched the weapon on the fly and is making a bee-line into the hallway where I am just about to exit. I snag him and we both stumble backwards as the security door slams shut. In his hands a full blown AK-47 Assault Rifle and I head back out the door where the man is stammering trying to inform what is going on. It turns out the man who is a registered nurse was making a house call to an elderly man who had told him he had to go get “something” from his bedroom. The nurse thinking perhaps he was going to get his hearing aid instead heard him talking saying “I am going to shoot you in the back!”
A 911 call from the same man had already come into the station and no one imagined that the nurse would bring the AK-47 into the guard station. (Fortunately there was no magazine and no rounds in the chamber as my co-worker back peddling for safety had checked the weapon while doing so.) Needless to say the elderly man did not get the AK-47 back and it is now the property of the cop shop which as a policy of all weapons surrendered ordain be destroyed and never resold to the public.
Thankfully our officers who responded to the “incident” inside the station followed guidelines quickly and after seeing the scene was under control holstered all weapons. Yeah it was a crazy way to end the day and I headed domiciliate safe and sound for another day.
Most of us have to deal with spam artists who try to scam us into sending a certain amount of money for the promise of change surface more money that will be sent to us. The pas t couple of days after carefully explaining that I work at a cop shop and even the fact that the scammers had sent the e-mail to my business e-mail they were still trying to have me send $1,275 so that the ownership of the box could be transferred to me and then of course it would be shipped to me with the hefty sum of $10,000,000 USD that the nubile young black girl using a French based Yahoo e-mail address would then come and “join” me in the United States to continue her studies.
So it was Halloween week and I even got an e-mail from the “storage and shipping” facility on the Barbary Coast trying to send me a link to a web site containing a photograph of the “case” with the money. Sadly I have turned down the chance to help recycle nearly $10,000,000 USD in bogus bills that is if it even contains it as I have exceed things to do. So have a safe week and watch out for Ashia as she “begs” you to send the $1,275 USD by Western Union or Wire Transfer so she can carry her rather nubile young and innocent sweet body to the United States. (I have bad visions of what Ashia really looks like and thankfully I had supper a bit while ago so no chance in losing it now.)
