Panty Raid

Bandits rob gas station disguised in thong underwear

'ARVADA – Police were searching Thursday for two men believed to have robbed a gas station wearing brightly-colored women's thong underwear over their faces.

Arvada Police say the robbery occurred at the Diamond Shamrock at Wadsworth Boulevard and West 68th Avenue on May 16 just before 5 a.m.

The suspects entered the business with the thongs over their faces and demanded cash from the clerk on duty, according to police.

The bandits left with an undisclosed amount of money and cigarettes.

They were not armed during the robbery.

The robbery was caught by a surveillance camera.

Police describe one suspect, wearing the green thong over his face, as a Hispanic man in his early 20s. He's 6 feet tall and weighs between 160 and 180 pounds. He has short black hair and was last seen wearing a dark blue shirt, blue jeans and dark shoes.

Police describe the other suspect, wearing the blue thong over his face, as a Hispanic man in his early to mid 20s. He's between 5-foot-8 and 5-foot-10 and 180 to 200 pounds. He has short black hair. He has a cross tattoo on his right upper arm and a tribal tattoo on his left upper arm.

Police say a dark-colored vehicle used gas pump #5 at approximately 4:45 a.m. The person may have observed something and is asked to contact Arvada Police.

Anyone with information about the suspects is asked to call Arvada Police at 720-898-6728.'

Hit-and-run only beginning of naked woman's rampage

'SANDY, Utah – Police in a suburb of Salt Lake City are trying to get down to the naked truth of why a woman went on a rampage Wednesday while in the nude.

Police say it started when Rachel Hansen, 38, rammed her car into a sport utility vehicle, backed up and hit it again.

"This lady was speeding directly towards us and I tried to warn my friend to get out of the way," said Fred Rollins, the driver of the SUV. "But it seemed like she was intent on hitting us and she did. And as we backed out of her way, she came and hit us again."

She then hopped out of her car completely naked and approached the occupants of the SUV.

"She jumped out of the car and she was naked, stark naked. And tried to attack me or something," said Rollins.

Police say after the crash, Hansen followed a 14-year-old girl home, kicked in the door, and when police arrived, resisted arrest.

She was eventually taken to University of Utah Hospital where she was to be evaluated.'

I am getting a ton of Google Image search hits on my Hotel From Hell post.

But when I try and do a search to see how people are finding it, I can't.

Speaking of the Gas Crunch...

There is a chance I may have to purchase a vehicle if The Corporation really does move where they are saying we are moving to.

And though I am TOTALLY against purchasing a car for many reasons, if I have to, I am thinking about getting a Mini.

I came across the new Clubman on my way home the other day.

I love Minis because they're cute, small, and sporty.

Much like me.

Effects Of The Gas Crunch

There is a plethora of scooters now all over downtown.

More than usual.

Didn't want to like it....

It is a little too Gay Techno for my tastes.

But this remix of 'The One That Got Away', grew on me.

Poetically, it was the hook of the chorus that got me:

'I need a hook so you won't be the one that got away
I need a look that stuns ya, makes you wanna stay.

Don't wanna speak in case it comes out wrong
Don't wanna blink coz in a second you could be gone

I need a twist to turn this story round.
I need a bridge to cross this dangerous ground.

Meet me in the middle like I want you too.
I gotta find your heart to shoot my arrow through'

For No Particular Reason....

The rules for this one is similar to one I did a while ago, but this time I have a different book.

1. Pick up the nearest book.
2. Open to page 123.
3. Locate the fifth sentence.
4. Post the next three sentences on your blog and in so doing...
5. Tag five people, and acknowledge who tagged me.

So here's mine from the King Of Run-On Sentences, Bret Easton Ellis:

''The bus pulled away from the curb before everyone was seated and hurled back onto the highway.

I tried to read the book but couldn't.

It started to rain, the sound of the Talking Heads coming from the cassette player, the girls passing Diet Pepsi and nachos back and forth and trying to flirt with me, the incessant yapping from the college boys in back, someone smoking clove cigarettes, an occasional joint, talking about how som slut named Ursula was f-cked by some guy named Phil in the back of some guy's Toyota Nissan named Mark and how Ursula lied to Phil and said it wasn't his baby but he paid for the abortion anyway and it was all so irritating I couldn't even concentrate on anything.'

'The U.S. acknowledges the design hinders blind people but it argued that blind people have adapted. Some relied on store clerks to help them, some used credit cards and others folded certain corners to help distinguish between bills.

The court ruled 2-1 that such adaptations were insufficient. The government might as well argue that, since handicapped people can crawl on all fours or ask for help from strangers, there's no need to make buildings wheelchair accessible, the court said.'

Odd Dream

I was in school, don't know if it was high school or college, but Hulk Hogan was my teacher.

Class was beginning and I made some smart ass comment to the guy sitting next to me and Hogan said something to me which I than proceeded to turn in to a major verbal fisticuff session with him.

He said he was kicking me out of class, and I told him to not bother because I was dropping the class.

'Good thing we brought a second javelin...'

Photographer speared by javelin at meet

'Ryan McGeeney of the Standard-Examiner was spared serious injury Saturday, and even managed to snap a photo of his speared leg while others tended to him.

"If I didn't, it would probably be my editor's first question when I got back," McGeeney said.

The 33-year-old McGeeney, an ex-Marine who spent six months in Afghanistan, was taking pictures of the discus event and apparently wandered into off-limits area set aside for the javelin.

Striking just below the knee, the javelin tip went through the skin and emerged on the other side of his leg.

"It wasn't real painful. ... I was very lucky in that it didn't hit any blood vessels, nerves, ligaments or tendons," McGeeney said.

Much of the javelin was cut off at the scene. The piece in McGeeney's leg was removed at a hospital, and he received 13 stitches.

The javelin was thrown by Anthony Miles, a Provo High School student who said his "heart just stopped" when he saw what happened.

"One of the first things that came to my mind was, 'Good thing we brought a second javelin,"' Miles' coach, Richard Vance, said Monday. He said Miles was "in a little bit of shock," but he assured the athlete it was not his fault.

With a subsequent throw, Miles went on to win the state title in javelin for teams in Provo High's size classification, 4-A.'

Okay, so you're probably going, 'Is this like a Noxzema commercial or what?'

Drunken Purchases

Colleen has a post that mentions purchasing while under the influence, and I had to stop and think If I had made any drunken purchases.

One that came to mind is a St. Louis Cardinals baseball cap that has 'Cardinals' written in Hebrew.

I was in St. Louis for a wedding, and the reception ended early, so a bunch of us ended up going out for drinks at Union Station [where we were also staying].

On the way back to the room, there was a tourist shop, and I saw the Hebrew cap and had to have it.

It cracked me up because I have never seen any sports memorabilia written in Hebrew.

We all had a good laugh at it at the time.

Occasionally I will still wear it out and it's amazing the reactions I get.

Either people are freaked out because they think it's that 'crazy Middle Eastern writin'', or I get Jews coming up to me speaking Hebrew.

And believe you me, I look far from Jewish.

I actually confused this one Israeli guy because I was wearing the cap, but he could also speak/read Arabic and noticed the tat on my right forearm.

Does St. Louis have a large Jewish community?

I still haven't figured out why it's in Hebrew.

Unfortunate Business Name

'Urban Mattress', for me, conjures up images of a mystery stained, decomposing mattress lying in some back alley.

Or lying on the floor of a crack house full of cigarette burn holes, and strung out junkies.

Couldn't they have named it something nicer like 'Metropolitan Mattress' or 'Urban Comfort'?

Happenings At The Big Gay Club

Electric Six - 'Gay Bar' [Maybe NSFW Work]

So, over the weekend, I ended up going to the Big Gay Club for ExSBF#2's birthday, even though we had already went out for it before.

Big Gay Club[BGC] and The Magazine do a lot of events together because BGC has a big events space next door, so they gave ExSBF#2 the VIP area for the night.

I tried getting there late becase ExSBF#2 is always late and I didn't want to be there and not know anyone.

So I get a cab and lo and behold, I'm early and I don't know anyone there.

Eventually ExSBF#2 and his Girlfriend[GF] show up [did I ever post about how me and GF had an incident and were'nt speaking to each other? It's since been resolved.] and peeps begin trickling in.

Included in the peeps was my editor for The Magazine.



This was unexpected, because I was on deadline and had yet to submit my article.

[Later that evening I told her to not expect it on Sunday as I may have a hangover and can't promise anything.]

As the night progressed I noticed how I REALLY didn't know anyone out.

I couldn't decide if this was a good or bad thing.

My party days are behind me and I guess it's a good thing some of us aren't still doing it years later.

Speaking of party days, an old Partner In Crime [PIC] showed up that I hadn't seen in a while [well, since December, the last time I was at BGC].

We ended up hanging out together most of the night, only occasionally to stop by the VIP area.

The thing about PIC is, he's a totally sweet and nice guy, but he's the type that if you're not careful, you'll find yourself doing lines off a stripper's ass at 5 in the morning...in Las Vegas.

Ha ha.

We've ended up in some crazy scenes, let me tell you.

Come to find out, one of our mutual friends is now th DJ at Tracks[!].

The previous DJ had been there since I bartended for them, so that was quite a change.

Come to think of it, that was the first time I have got to hang out in the DJ booth at the new incarnation of BGC.

Someone else I found interesting that was hanging out at BGC, were two local reporters for the local news affiliates.

One of them I dubbed my Arch Nemesis[AN].


Arch Nemesis And Entertainment Reporter

AN is a segment presenter on one of the morning news shows.

Most of you know I AM NOT a morning person.

I am seriously cranky-pants in the morning.

So whilst waiting for the weather reports so I can plan my attire for the day, AN usually comes on with some 'wacky' segment or such.

Like recently, he was talking about a new exhibit at the Art Museum, and was totally camping it up while talking to the Curator about some of the pieces.

His bright and sparkly manner is the antithesis to my dour demeanor in the morning.

So much so, that I think evil thoughts in my groggy haze when he comes on.

Incidentally, the broadcast he works for likes to make fun of him sometimes, and make jokes about him being a nelly queen [don't worry, they're nothing overly offensive or such].

Now I can kind of see why.

Saturday night he totally flamed out.

I was expecting gay but whoa, nelly! [Pun intended.]

It kind of cracked me up.

I think he picked up on that I was telling people he is my Nemesis and taking pics of him, because I caught him glaring at me a couple of times.

Ha ha.

And, oh yeah, the other news guy is pretty nelly too, but he's an entertainment reporter so it's to be expected.

I moved on to other things eventually, like finding out one of my old booty calls still works there.

It's weird, I'm no longer physically attracted to him, but every time we talk there's still a total spark between us.




Him working there still, might make the fact that I want to hook up [potentially date] with one of the Managers[M] who works there.

M and I have made plans to hang out/go on a date before, but something has always come up for me.

I figured he would have lost interest by now, but I guess not, as we're supposed to hang out at the Magazine's Fashion Show on Friday and do something next week,

Speaking of hooking up, I forgot how I kind of become a Mack Daddy after I have had some booze in me.

When I woke up Sunday, I had four new numbers in my phone.

Sadly, I don't can't put a face to two of them, so that's pretty much a dead end as the Statute Of Limitations on the Hungover Sunday Call Window has expired.

All in all it was a fun night, and I actually wasn't that worse for wear on Sunday.

Although, I am kind of regretting that I told PIC that I would work the door at some of his upcoming parties.

Ack.

Speaking of body issues....

Does your spine pop/crack when doing yoga/stretching?

Sometimes when I stretch/do yoga, I can feel my vertebrae pop and seemingly move back in to realignment.

That weird, or normal?

Update: Ack.

The chest pain I was experiencing last week seems to have subsided.

Over the weekend it became apparent that the pain was external rather than internal.

I am pretty sure there was something wonky going on with this muscle in my rib cage:

Whew.

Thank god.

With that said, I have began winding down on the smoking with intentions to quit [it's real hard y'all].

I wonder if the chest pain was related in any way to the problem I had with my nip nips.
