Cops mistaken for male strippers at bachelorette party
For real? That cop? Wow.
…
After the Northern Territory police had finished inspecting the tavern, they moved on next door to the Humpty Doo Hotel, where they were met by the women celebrating a “hen’s night,” an Australian term for a bachelorette party.
“They were most excited about the police presence,” said Northern Watch Commander Louise Jorgenson. “There were various shouts about how the strippers had arrived.”
“They nearly had their shirts torn off, but they managed to escape with their dignity intact,” Jorgenson added.
…
Oh really?
Ok.
Just contemplate that for a moment… while you enjoy the Friday Night OOT!
Always good to have a Humpty Doo next to the tavern.
tht sound you just heard was me opening a can of belhaven scottish ale to chase a double shot of stoli.
hi yinz!

Better. Poppa X is talking again, going through rehab. He won’t be going back to his apartment, though.
Lily & Calo said they were gonna rip out my short curlys with duct tape if I didn’t come back and post.

CW -- test time. What is the first thing you think of, besides obvious injuries, of someone who has been down for a few days and what lab test is indicative of this?
@ Kirly:
No. I can’t. I was mean on my first tweet to him and it went right over his head. For goodness sakes, I called him a rumpswab.
@ Calo:
Try him on with “poltroon” and “flibbertigibbet”. Word it as though it were a compliment, and he’d probably fall for it.
@ Calo:
agh…i was taking out the garbage….
first things i want is a lyte panel and anything that can give me hydration stats (esp in older adults)…i need K especially if there is dysrythmia to be treated.
then i would like a cbc with serum albumin to establish what i have in the vascular space, can i get a white count for infection?
then i would like a chest xray, yeah, i know obvious, i want to image the lungs to see what is shakin’ in there
then i would like…cardiac markers, an MRI or head CT, if its a female i want a UTI.
Pinetop Perkins. I’ve had the pleasure of meeting him and buying him a Jack Daniels.
@ coldwarrior:
and then an aPTT, PT, INR to go along with the head CT/MRI/Cardiac markers
@ coldwarrior:
Heh. He just called, and he was sharp, little slurred, but I could understand him, unlike two days ago. Thank God.
@ Calo:
But he IS a #rumpswab. Truth is not slander.

In the case of Poppa X, he was on some serious blood thinners due to a previous heart condition that was detected after he had a stroke in the mid 90s. He’d bruise if you stared at him. The MRI showed some bleeding in the brain cavity, but it was not a stroke.

LOL I wouldn’t have such a negative opinion except that my brother gave me his book one year for Christmas. I didn’t make it past the first couple chapters. The man’s story telling on the radio is charming. When you read his words in his book, you realize that he is not trying to be funny, he is mocking those of faith. He holds a vehemently anti-Christian viewpoint and, in his book, took that to extremes in terms of really expressing contempt for those who don’t hold his views.
Quite disillusioning.

I should add that he had the same opinion of those who did not hold to his political viewpoints as well. All in all, a nasty piece of work
My brother was very apologetic, he hadn’t read the book, just thought it would be something I would enjoy reading. He did redeem himself though, the other book I got that year was a Scott Adams book. Can’t go wrong with Dilbert.

Kelly knew that some of his strips would be squelched, so he told his friends that if they saw two bunnies in a strip they’d know he’d been censored. The bunny strips were offered to the newspapers as backup/alternates. They made the same vicious points except with vicious subtlety.
Da_Beerfreak wrote:
had to go and look it up…
“Backlash, censorship and “bunny strips”
Kelly’s use of satire and politics often drew fire from those he was criticizing and their supporters. Due to complaints, a number of papers censored or dropped the strip altogether, while others moved it to the editorial page.
When he started a controversial storyline, Kelly would usually create alternate, deliberately innocuous daily strips that papers could opt to run instead of the political ones for a given week. They are sometimes labeled “Special,” or with a letter after the date, to denote that they were alternate offerings. Kelly referred to these strips as “bunny strips,” because more often than not he would populate the alternate strips with the least offensive material he could imagine—fluffy little bunnies telling safe, insipid jokes. (Nevertheless, many of the bunny strips are subtle reworkings of the theme of the replaced strip.) As if to drive home Kelly’s point, some papers published both versions. Kelly would tell fans that if all they saw in Pogo were fluffy little bunnies, then their newspaper didn’t believe they were capable of thinking for themselves—or didn’t want them to. The bunny strips were usually not reproduced when Pogo strips were collected into book form. However, a few alternate strips were reprinted in Equal Time for Pogo and the 1982 collection, The Best of Pogo.
