I know I should write some original content at some point, but that probably isn’t going to happen now that I’m in the middle of reading Edmund Spenser’s one-thousand page ass lick to Queen Elizabeth (otherwise known as The Faerie Queene.) Once again, just to prove that not only do I have a weblog but I am also still alive, here’s a couple of samples from the Sheriff’s Blotter:
An argument over a game of “beer pong,” a ping-pong drinking game, escalated when two players were beaten up by four contenders. According to the victims, who were heavily intoxicated during the incident, the suspects attacked and then, adding insult to injury, stole their bicycles. After the early-morning incident, the victims called 9-1-1.
Once on the scene at 5 a.m., using the intoxicated victims’ recollection of the incident, deputies pieced together the report. Following the incident, both battered victims were treated at a local hospital.
Animals. I think that this is one of the reasons I never got into sports, even those involving beer. I suppose this kind of thing could happen over a really competitive split-screen game of Halo, but I thankfully hang out with a crowd that is, for the most part, pretty wimpy. Then again, I have no clue as to how a fight could break out over beer pong. Could someone perhaps explain this to me? Maybe I just don’t know how it’s played. On with the second item:
While on patrol just before midnight in Isla Vista, a deputy came upon four individuals dancing on the hood of a vehicle parked on Del Playa Road. Leading one beer-soaked subject away from the scene as the others quickly dispersed, the deputy questioned the motive. After learning the vehicle did not belong to the subject, the officer asked the subject if he thought the victim would appreciate somebody dancing on the hood of his or her car.
The dancer, visiting from San Luis Obispo, admitted his guilt and foolishness and was arrested for vehicle malicious mischief.
Reason number 1,207 not to park your car (or even drive) in Isla Vista. In my twisted fantasy world, in which I am the iron-fisted dictator, the victim of crimes like this would be given several opportunities to show the perpetrator exactly how he or she “feels” about this sort of crap. Deep in my heart I am really not a very nice guy.
