Tony’s Collections– I dig the Keyrings Man, that’s a lot of knickknacks.
mine is totally accurate – Tomorrow is Mental Health Day! SO Right! Long weekend coming up! Not even an excuse, but a long-planned weekend.

Man on the bus reading the paper and talking to nobody in particular. “We’re all ants! Those Fatcats in Washington don’t care about us!”
I don’t think I’ve ever used the term “fatcats” in writing before.. or said it before today. I like it. Say it with me, won’t you, journal? Fatcats. Fatcats. Fatcats.
Speaking of Fat Cats, this is Newt’s most withering gaze. Ok, he’s not really that fat.
Amazing how many people are seeding last night’s episode of lost (#19). It’s really the best time to grab it. over 7800 people seeding and more than 15,000 sharing pieces of it? No wonder it comes down the pipe so fast.
Moment of Lyric:
I miss your gentle voice
At lonely times like now
Saying it’ll be alright
I miss my friend
The one my heart and soul confided in
The one I felt the safest with
The one who knew just what to say
To make me laugh again
And let the light back in
I miss my friend
People at work are starting to forget that my cell phone isn’t for calling me on a whim. I have to answer it right away, because I’m the go-guy if the system breaks, or a tech has any issues. I don’t need to be called out of a shower to be asked about mundane work crap that can wait until office hours.
Best overheard phrase last night: “I bit me a vampire once. Tasted like corn.”
Thief Steals Poop From Woman Walking Dog
SAN DIEGO (AP) — The hunt is on for a turd burglar. Police in San Diego are searching for a gunman who swiped a bag of poop from a woman out walking her dog.
The woman told police that she was out walking her dog, Misty, on Monday night when a man in his 20s ran up behind her and grabbed the bag she was holding.
When the gunman discovered what was in it, he threw it down in disgust, pointed his gun at the 32-year-old woman and demanded money, San Diego police detective Gary Hassen said.
He then aimed his .22-caliber semiautomatic at Misty and pulled the trigger twice but the gun didn’t fire, Hassen said.
The robber ran to a waiting small, silver car and fled the scene, police said.
Cop Suspended for Ticketing Doctor on Call
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (AP) — A police officer who stopped a doctor for speeding on his way to deliver a baby, and then took him to the maternity ward in handcuffs, has agreed to an unpaid suspension for lack of judgment.
Dr. Anthony Chidiac was driving his motorcycle 10 miles above the 25 mph speed limit last March when he was stopped by 15-year veteran Officer William Lilliston.
According to records released Monday from an internal police investigation, when the doctor explained he was going to a delivery, the officer allegedly asked if he was delivering a pizza and later said, “If you’re a doctor, I’m Mickey Mouse or Joe Blow.”
Lilliston called the hospital to confirm Chidiac’s story, and drove him to the hospital as the baby’s head was showing. The officer then asked to see the doctor’s driver’s license before letting Chidiac change into scrubs.
Chidiac delivered the baby 15 minutes after the handcuffs were removed.
The officer, who said the doctor had been slow in pulling over, later wrote Chidiac a traffic citation.
The officer agreed last month to serve a 16-day unpaid suspension under a negotiated settlement, said Jack Lokeinsky, his union’s president. The case is scheduled to go before a Citizen Review Board on April 11.
Lokeinsky said Lilliston’s actions did not warrant a more severe punishment because the doctor should have pulled over immediately and shown his identification.
“We strongly feel if he had been dismissed, it would have been overturned on arbitration,” Lokeinsky told the South Florida Sun-Sentinel newspaper.
Lilliston does not have a listed phone number and could not be reached for comment Tuesday. Chidiac was on vacation and also could not be reached, his office said.
