I was climbing a hill in my truck at the pit and I was almost at the peak of it when one jumped out of the bush... I missed it by inches. I probably would have cried if I had hit it though.

Ever tried to physically restrain anyone that's actively resisting you? You'll break bones, tear ligaments and tendons in an old person very easily. Tell me...what looks worse? A tased old crazy lady or a crazy old lady with a broken arm? There is no "soft" technique...the idea is to gain control as rapidly and completely as possible. You never know if someone has a weapon and you don't fuck around with it. Odds are..you lay hands on a combative elderly person they will be injured. A taser drastically reduces that issue.

See, I would think any method is going to result in a broken hip.

With that story, I said that was my first thought when I read the headline.
I'm just saying there are a lot of stupid cops who are to quick to use them.

Beckster has chocolate fever. She used to be cracka lackin

It's Monday!!!!

What did you do this weekend?

- Friday I went into the city to go to an exclusive meet & greet with a couple of country bands with my friend Kayty

-Saturday I went to a mennonite church bbq. We were invited by our business partner... that is something I will probably never do again. All the ladies make their own dresses to wear and there I am in a tshirt and pants with like 200 pairs of eyes staring at me..

- Sunday We went up to the pit to fix a rock chute that our business partner hit with the loader then over to my inlaws for dinner.

What did you buy?

Absolutely nothing... However I traded in my RBC rewards points for an 64gb Ipod Touch. It should be here sometime in the next two weeks.

I went to the Tiger game Friday, then helped my brother move Saturday and Sunday night.
I ordered a new radio through Sirius, it was free, and UPS said it was delivered on Saturday morning "by the USPS". It wasn't. And that made me realize I hadn't gotten any mail in a couple days. If I don't have any today, I think I may have to start making calls.

Friday and Saturday - ran the yard sale with my mom and did a little hunting for for the little creature.

Sunday - cleaned house and threw together a cookout for the family.

It was a busy and exhausting weekend.

Now, it's raining out. This should have been a mandatory stay in bed and sleep day.

Hahahaha
