#2  She described him as an "excellent uncle" to her children, and a good lay, saying she doesn't fear sharing leaving them with him.

#5  A lot of stupid people still trusted Michael Jackson with their kids after the first round of accusations. So what? Not impressed by the family's actions in the slightest, and disgustingly typical of families where incest has occurred.

If some guy who got convicted of statutory rape because of consensual activity with a 17 year old girlfriend when he was 18 is on the list, why the hell shouldn't he be?

#6  Oh, well incest. Thats every bit as bad as child molesting. That sick fuck should be put on the front cover of the local paper.

#7  SB--Respectfully, I don't believe those parents actually trusted MJ, but rather they were using their children as sacrificial bait to enrich themselves. Something along the lines of "Little Timmy is now scarred for life, but I think $5 million will make us--I mean 'him'--cope with the nightmares a little easier."

#8  Dar, I hate to say it, but I'm sure some of the "parents" were thinking that way. Sick, ain't it?

300 Lb Police Chief's Wife's Nude Snaps Cause Three Resignations
Snyder, Okla. -- The police chief, the mayor and a councilman in this small town resigned Friday amid an uproar over nude photos of the chief's 300-pound, tattooed wife that she posted on a Web site.
Probably not a future "Good Morning" girl here on the Rantburg D-S...
Dozens of residents of the town of 1,500 had demanded Police Chief Tod Ozmun resign, and the district attorney recommended an obscenity investigation, but the City Council decided last week that the pictures were protected by the First Amendment.

On Friday, Ozmun, Mayor Dale Moore and Councilman Clifford Barnard said they were stepping down because they were fed up with the public attention and criticism of the chief. Another council member resigned earlier over the council's support of Ozmun. "This has turned into a media circus," Ozmun said. "I don't feel like me staying in office is going to benefit my department or my staff. This has turned into a mess. This is ridiculous. Absolutely ridiculous."

#1  "My wife is 6-foot-3 and weighs 300 pounds," said Ozmun, who became chief in January 2005. "If there is somebody that thinks they can control her, have at it. I have tried for 11 years and haven't been able to."

Give the man points for honesty. Then accept his resignation. Not because of his wife's acts, but because of the lack of confidence displayed by his departmental staff. No police chief can provide leadership to those who do not respect him.

#2  ROFL!

#3  Whew! No pix other than a head shot. No, not that kind of head shot, LOL.

#4  Thanks for not including the graphic!
Posted by: gorb || 09/11/2006 3:41 Comments || Top||

#5  Don't tell me -- people resigned rather than have to look at the pics?

#6  There are eight million stories in the naked city . . . and she's got about three hundred of 'em all to herself.

#7  Saw the head shot in the original article. For the LIFE of me I cannot imagine a) why he's still married to her and b) why any hosting service would carry that pic.

But I suppose it takes all kinds ....

#8  "You know what I call this? I call this a witch hunt," she said.

Tens of thousands of Home Depot brooms frowned and wretched when she said that.

That's a whole lotta Rosie, with an attitude to boot. Good luck bud.

#11  Why is it that the ones you really, really don't want to see unclothed always feel the urge to go naked? And share it with everybody else? It's some kind of inverse relationship, I think...
Posted by: Jonathan || 09/11/2006 10:23 Comments || Top||

#12  I've always heard that sex is 5% physical and 95% mental. This shows what happens when it becomes 100% mental.

A successful one.

#15  Lemme see, 6' 3" is... 1,9 meters, and 300 lbs is about 135 kg... which is about what your average weight-pumping convict who does 1000 push-ups a day looks like... humm, I can see why hubby can't control her. Does she do MMA as well? She should.

Great White North
Boeing says it will win $8B contract for Canadian planes
HALIFAX—Boeing Corp. will win a controversial contract to provide heavy-lift transport planes and helicopters to Canada's military because it can deliver the aircraft faster than competitors, company officials claim. Officials with the Chicago-based aerospace giant made the assertion yesterday during tours of the C-17 transport plane at a Halifax-area air show.

Boeing has been selected for a deal that will see the Canadian Forces acquire four C-17s for $3.4 billion and 16 Chinook helicopters for $2.7 billion, plus maintenance costs. The C-17 contract is expected to be awarded next spring, with the first plane delivered within 18 months and the last within four years. The Chinook helicopter contract, meanwhile, is expected to be awarded by next summer, with deliveries between three and five years after that. Chinooks will be assembled in the United States and maintained in Canada, but C-17s will be both manufactured and repaired in the U.S.

#1  Keep that C-17 line open.... cut Japan a deal for 12 or 18. The UK only has what, 4-6? The US is going to end up needing another 120 of these puppies.
