Good thing they didn’t live in San Francisco or LA.
Idledale, Colorado - A mountain lion crept through an open door into a house outside Denver, snatched a Labrador retriever from a bedroom where two people were sleeping and left the dog’s dead body outside, wildlife managers said Tuesday.
How many of you sleep with your doors open? And you motorcycle fans… when was the last time you brought it up on the freeway, on an overpass 50 feet over the road below?
A motorcycle rider crashed on the Connector Tuesday evening but fell off the bike before it fell over the side of the highway to the skateboard park below, said Boise police Lt. Ron Winegar.
A witness said the rider was doing a wheelie and lost control, Winegar said. The motorcycle continued on its path off the Connector, falling just 10 feet from one witness.
The rider stayed on the highway above, sliding across the lanes of traffic. No motorists were able to hit him as he tumbled to a stop. Minor injuries. No wiser, me thinks.
Speaking of wiser, voters in Nebraska oughta be wondering about that before they go to the polls again
A Nebraska state senator is moving forward with his controversial lawsuit against his maker, requesting “a permanent injunction ordering [God] to cease certain harmful activities and the making of terroristic threats.”
State Sen. Ernie Chambers, I-Omaha, appeared before Douglas County District Judge Marlon Polk in a scheduling hearing against God on July 28.
Chambers, an atheist, requested that the court acknowledge the presence of God in the courtroom so he wouldn’t be required to “serve notice” of the trial, according to the Omaha World-Herald.
The court had previously told Chambers the lawsuit would be thrown out if he was unable to serve notice to his Creator.
Speaking of courts, let’s go back to Colorado and check in on an important First Amendment rights case happening right now.
“Our intent for this bill is not about suppressing or chilling First Amendment rights,” he said.
Which bill is that, you ask?
The ordinance makes it illegal to carry certain items, such as chains, padlocks, carabiners and other locking devices. It also prohibits the possession of noxious substances. Two of the most frequently used examples of a noxious substance are a bucket of urine and a “feces bomb.”
There you have an example of grown up, respectful political discourse and dissent. Right.
Representatives from some of the groups planning large-scale protests during the DNC this month said the ordinance was unnecessary and accused city officials of fear mongering.
“The intent of this ordinance is to try to smear protesters and make them look as if they are somehow criminal or somehow going to engage in some kind of gross conduct,” said Glenn Spagnuolo, an organizer with the Re- create 68 Alliance.
“Smear protesters”? Sounds like a fine idea to me. I’ve bought my popcorn for this one already…the idea of uber-lefties protesting and running amuck at the leftie DNC picnic coronation this summer ought to be good theatre. Much more interesting than the RNC tapdancing festival in Minnesota, don’t you agree? When Larry Craig announced he wasn’t going, that was about the best laugh that little shindig is going to produce.
Oh yeah, then there’s the new Paris video where she shows Barack how to really go after cranky senior citizens. Who’d a thought Paris had more substance than Barry? No link. I dare ya to Google “Paris video”.
