In the news-stupid criminals

The problem with this story is that it simply is NOT that uncommon. While working as a Parole/Probation Agent, Many criminals when released from Jail/Prison did EXACTLY what they were known for...BEING a CRIMINAL.
One guy within TWO hours in Saginaw...was released...tried to get a 7-11 employee to get him a hot dog..and stuffed his shirt with cigarettes, was videotaped, and caught within 2 hour from his release!! it was CRAXZXXXY! We laughed our butts off!!

While in Mt. Pleasant...a guy robbed a bank with the EXACT same type of vehicle that he had before...he stole a car (same make and model) he used in his first crime, robbed a bank (with a DRILL). One way they caught him was he wrapped the drill in duct tape and left a fingerprint on the tape. HOWEVER...the astute Parole Supervising Agent George...says...WWAIIIT a minute...THIS sounds a LOT like my guy xyz....pull out xyz's file and it was almost IDENTICAL. Yep...same guy...same crime...different year. I Think it was the same bank also though I can't remember.



CLOVERDALE, Ind. - A 22-year-old man was back behind bars about 12 hours after he was released from jail, accused of stealing a car and beer and leading police on a high-speed chase.
Darren E. Roberts was released from the Sullivan County Jail Tuesday afternoon after competing his sentence for auto theft.

But Indiana State Police say that early Wednesday morning, Roberts stole a 2004 red Ford Mustang in Linton, then drove to a gas station in Cloverdale where he allegedly stole some beer and fled.

Police chased the red Mustang at speeds of up to 105 mph on Interstate 70, until the car spun out and Roberts surrendered.

He's now being held in the Putnam County Jail without bond on a variety of charges. It's not immediately known if he has an attorney.

My daughter asks: WHat TYpe of Spice are you?




You Are Cilantro



The bad news is that there are some people who can't stand you.

The good news is that most people love you more than anything else in the world.

You are distinct, unusual, fresh, and very controversial. And you wouldn't have it any other way.

MY HUGE FIND!!!

(these are online photos I grabbed, not the stuff I have)




Grace Murray Hopper, FIRST person to make computers understand English.-Yale Educated, Navy Woman to the Core, Retiring once, being recalled to Service.."Rear Admiral Dr. Grace Murray Hopper was a remarkable woman who grandly rose to the challenges of programming the first computers. During her lifetime as a leader in the field of software development concepts, she contributed to the transition from primitive programming techniques to the use of sophisticated compilers. .."
I am so Excited I can BARELY get out my information...
My Friend and I were Garage Sailing...

She found a box of old photos, news article, papers from Washington D.C., the PENTAGON ....and this lady Grace Hopper's pictures, papers etc are included in it. "this Lady" seems SO disrespectful. BECAUSE OF HER...Computers work. She worked for the Early RAND Corporation.
She retired, and was "requested" to return because of computer crisis of the Govt. in making computers integrate. She didn't retire until '88.
We have an original menu of the dinner of one of her special award events!




OK, On TOP of all this...are MANY MANY "Pentagon Released" photos of old war ships, missiles, in PENTAGON envelope!
I'm shallow enough that yes, some sort of similar photos seem to be selling for about 25 dollars each on ebay.
How bout a Picture of the underwater firing of a Polaris A-3 missile from an "unnamed" submarine? GOT IT. http://www.history.navy.mil/photos/sh-usn/usnsh-p/ss2.htm

What was YOUR Birthday Song?

Do you know the #1 song the day you were born?


Go here: http://www.joshhosler.biz/NumberOneInHistory/SelectMonth.htm


MINE was....."It's Now or Never" by Elvis Presley
Lyrics...
It's now or never,
come hold me tight
Kiss me my darling,
be mine tonight
Tomorrow will be too late,
it's now or never
My love won't wait.

When I first saw you
with your smile so tender
My heart was captured,
my soul surrendered
I'd spend a lifetime
waiting for the right time
Now that your near
the time is here at last.

It's now or never,
come hold me tight
Kiss me my darling,
be mine tonight
Tomorrow will be too late,
it's now or never
My love won't wait.

Just like a willow,
we would cry an ocean
If we lost true love
and sweet devotion
Your lips excite me,
let your arms invite me
For who knows when
we'll meet again this way

It's now or never,
come hold me tight
Kiss me my darling,
be mine tonight
Tomorrow will be too late,
it's now or never
My love won't wait.

HEY I TEACH!!

I'm getting ready to do a Teacher Inservice on Love and Logic in the Classroom, Classroom management etc. SO....I ran across a TEACHER QUIZ...and well..thankfully I am POSTING the results because they were So ME!! LOL..don't think for a moment if I were Atilla the Hun or something I'd be posting this!


You have the Fair and Balanced Personality: You are a teacher who students can really depend on to be fair. You are consistent and balanced in your approach. You rarely raise your voice and you almost always treat every student the same. No favortism in your room. Wonderful!
Seriously though...: Fair and balanced teachers make teaching seem easy. They have less disruptions in their classes because students realize that they will be dealt with according to the rules but in a fair and consistent way. If you ever slip up and do something that students perceive as unfair or inconsistent, don't worry - they'll be happy to point it out.
Other Teacher Personality Types: Here is a link to the other teacher personality types. Enjoy!

Then I went to the bank to confirm if the draft has expired or getting near to
the date of expire and Dr.Wilson the Director Bank of Africa told me that

I'm cheesy




You Are a Chocolate Cheesecake



Rich and greedy, you're attracted to the dark side of life.

Nothing ever quite satisfies your inner beast. And somehow, people find that sexy.
