silver-colored rings on gray pavement

Hey y’all, been kind of enjoying this weather, I'd like it a little cooler though, it feels like a second summer, oh well, winter is just around the corner. I went to the post office the other day... you know, when I was young, hmmm, between 20s -40s, I hardly got mail, maybe a postcard from a friend travelling overseas, a letter from my Mom, or a reminder that my Acoustic Guitar magazine subscription was expiring. Now that I'm a retired geezer, I get mail from people, places and organizations I've never heard of - all wanting donations, sell me something or going to make me rich!  Most of it I just pitch in the recycle bin and go on about my way.  The next time I take a trip some place, I'll send myself a postcard. We'll be playing some events in the next few weeks, this one for The Points Annual Oyster Roast https://whollyticket.com/paymentpage/payment.php?event_id=84085 sounds like a good time!

Guess Again – Florida Doctor: My Guilty Plea in a Sexual Battery Case Shouldn’t Affect My License – Miami Herald headline 

Limited Distribution: Officers from Oregon’s Portland Police Bureau spotted a stolen car, and pulled it over. Reginald Lamont Reynolds, 35, was with a woman; both were arrested, and the car was searched incident to the arrest. Officers found a loaded gun, money, scales, and small bags commonly used for illicit drug distribution. Oh, and one other thing: a zippered cloth bag upon which was printed, “Definitely Not a bag full of Drugs”. It was, of course, filled with drugs, apparently mostly meth. Reynolds was jailed, but prosecutors apparently thought the woman was not involved, and released her without charges.   (Portland Oregonian) ...And here her main purpose was to be the one left holding the bag.

Overheard in Planet Follywood

Hot Dude: Mike Jack, 42, of London, Ont., Canada, officially set two Guinness World Records on the same day. Even he described the first as a “nasty one”: he poured several bottles of sriracha sauce into a large bowl, which was then weighed. Guinness said that if he could consume more than 300 grams of the sauce in 3 minutes, he’d set a new record. At “Go!” he started slurping it up as fast as he could dip a large soup spoon into the bowl. After 3 minutes the bowl was weighed again: he ate 2 pounds 7 ounces (just over 1.1 kg). Doesn’t he ...um... suffer the next day after such stunts? “I’ve actually never experienced burn-butt before,” Jack said. “It’s my super power, I guess.” The other record he set that day? The fastest time to drink a Capri Sun with a paper straw. He had to beat 22 seconds; he did it in 21.71 seconds. (Toronto Sun) ...Which began just 4.02 seconds after breaking the sriracha record.

“911, What’s the Nature of Your Emergency?”  When police in Las Vegas, Nev., got the full lowdown on an incident regarding Gavin Hamilton, 26, at the Fontainebleau hotel and casino, they mounted a “counterterrorism response.” Hamilton allegedly triggered an alarm in a stairwell. A maintenance worker responded, but was held off by Hamilton — with a flamethrower. He apparently didn’t resist police, who found he had a tank of flammable liquid in a backpack feeding a 3-foot-long hose with a nozzle. Also in the backpack: bongs and a meth pipe. He has been charged with assault with a deadly weapon, arson, and drug possession, and jailed on $34,000 bail. Prosecutors may be aided by Hamilton’s mug shot: his face is heavily soiled with soot. (KLAS Las Vegas) ...Entitlements for the accused: a phone call, a lawyer, a damp washcloth.
