Saint, I don't get what you mean by having a picture of the girl on the guy's back.

She was executing a wrestling move called "a half-peg". It was very popular in the 70s.

Went home to Cincy for Christmas. My 18 year old nephew has earings and is dating a 15 year old mexican girl. Needless to say, much fun was had by all... except for him.

Heh, like HS kids read newspapers. Little bitch boy would've caught hell, regardless. This is how Snape got started...

momma's threatening to sue today. on top of everything else, she's also demanding that we run a correction that he's actually a sophomore and not a freshman as we reported. that kid is either a huge wuss or just hates his momma.

Whats she going to sue for?

Also, a correction that says, "Sorry it was mistakenly reported that <insert name>, a <school> wrestler who was beaten by a girl, is actually a sophomore and not a freshman as reported originally" sounds like a good move.

The fact that he is a soph instead of a frosh should really calm down all the abuse he's getting. I highly recommend you give the correction, along with the previously omitted quote and rerun the photo.

she's going to sue for us exposing her son as someone who got beat by a girl, I guess.

I assured her I'll be more than happy to run a correction. she wasn't happy with the photo, which was a standard wrestling shot with the girl on his back as he was stomach-down on the mat. my suggestion for headline was "Girl on top" but I didn't run it lest the baptists and pentecostals fuss about the sexual suggestion. my favorite suggestion was "Pussy-whipped!" which we didn't run for obvious reasons.

You need to write an article about helicopter parents who end up pussifying their kids by ridiculous attempts to shelter and over protect.

she just called me an asshole in her most recent email. I'm guessing she's not hot but that makes me kind of want her a little bit

Tell her you will run a corrected article if she will blow you. Other than that, tell her to get that sand out of her vagina and STFU.

is the 15 year old mexican girl hot or just a short dumpy tomato picker?

btw, I continued the Xmas tradition of giving myself a big fuck you 345 days from now by doing a half ass job of putting away the xmas decorations and lights. Its gonna take my ass 2 hours to untangle those lights and shit. I so fucked eCat over.

eCat,

As a man with a bit of disposable income: throw that shit away and buy new every year. Isn't that expensive, no storage to worry about, and you're not (usually) having to fix the broken or burned out bulbs.

Donate the used lights to Mexican tomato pickers. They'll use the lights year round (possibly to line the dash of the '79 El Camino).

You're welcome.

I'm not that far off. I took a box cutter to the garland. Fuck unwinding that twinkly shit from around the tree.

Two boxes of tangled lights sat in the damp attic. And sorry that I could not unravel both and be considered sane, I looked at the boxes as long as I could, chunked them both and bought new. I took the path less trying. And that has made all the difference.

She's cute. Speaking of which.

My brother, nephew, and I went to the UC/Ark-Pine Bluff game. After, we went to eat at Martino's, which is across the street from Bogart's. My nephew noticed on the marquee that Wale was coming to Bogart's in a couple of weeks. He then broached the subject of going to said concert, explaining that even though it was a weeknight, he wouldn't miss much at school because they had just had their final exams for the semester and the new semester didn't start until a week after the concert (I don't know, sounds like Harrison's school system is fucked up.) My brother says that surely my nephews girlfriend won't be allowed to go with him. And I say, "Why not? She'll have adult supervision."

There is something reassuring in the fact that your comments with relatives are as poor as they are with us. Consistency made McDonald's a billion dollar business.
