Which City ...
Here's a vid about a local news story that's gotten a lot of play in the last few days. The woman is from Salem, which is the town next door to where I live. THAT Salem. The one where the Puritans burned the witches. Corrupting a line my eighth grade social studies teacher said about California, if you believe in creation, when God made Massachusetts, he picked it up by the corners and everything that was loose rolled into Salem.
I also want you to note the stunningness (if that's a word) of the reporter. She's actually a lot more attractive in person. We've crossed paths a couple of times, and whenever we're in the same room, it gets very difficult for me to concentrate.

I realize as men we are indoctrinated with the principle that you should never hit a girl. But if some crazy drunk bitch starts throwing punches at my head, I'm fucking taking her out.

I think if the poor guy cold-cocked this chick, he could have made an argument he was, under the guidelines of city ordinance, taking out the trash.
The other thing that amazes is no one stepped in, and it looks like people were going out of their way not to notice what was going on. Except of course for the guy recording the thing with the camera on his cell phone and laughing.
Reminds me of Frank Drebin doing crowd control during the fire at the fireworks factory in Naked Gun: "Nothing to see here ..."

.....but she's going to AA , I'm sure everything will be hunky dory .
On Sunday mornings, there's an AA meeting at the community center where I play basketball. They leave one of the meeting rooms at 9 a.m., just as we're arriving at the gym for hoops. There's one skinny driveway that leads up a steep hill to the community center.
The first issue is most of the people who attend the meeting are in AA because of a drunk driving bust which resulted in the loss of their driver's license. So they need to be picked up, and they stand in the middle of the driveway, smoking the cigarette they lit the second they got out of the building, and arranging for rides with their cell phones. (You can't smoke indoors in the People's Republic of Massachusetts. Lord knows you have to be addicted to SOMEthing, and you don't get arrested for possession of nicotine).
The second issue is the event that's in the gym before us is an aerobics class for seniors. I think the average age of the people who attend is 105. So you've got old Jewish women who can't see over the tops of their steering wheels barrelling down a steep hill at about 50 mph toward pedestrians from the AA meeting who aren't paying attention. I've been playing hoops on Sunday morning for 15 years, and in all that time it's a miracle my car hasn't been t-boned at the bottom of the hill by a Cadillac with a drunk holding a cigarette and a cell phone to his ear as a hood ornament.
