Wonder how many waypoints they had to plot for that one. Work of art indeed.
 
Where I live, there is a county-wide ban on fireworks, recreational shooting, etc. I'm not sure if there will be fireworks at the fairgrounds or not.

Meanwhile, next door in Coconino County, this is still uncontained:

That's the Point Fire north of Sedona. I took that photo yesterday afternoon at the truck stop in Cordes Junction. That would put the fire about 60 miles to the north.

That fire is not the only one but it is the largest in the state. A few people with fire works could start a horrible prairie fire if they wanted to.
We have a multi county ban and it still hasnt made a gosh darned differrence as I see them popping off all around.

No bloody difference between us and some third world shithole at this point in terms of quality of citizens.

I know, bro'. The 6 months I spent up there was enough.
 

Holiday Weekend!​


We may or may not be traveling, so updates might be sporadic.

The heat is sticking around for a little while, but there's a good chance of rain in the forecasts every day. Some people are off Friday and others are extending their weekend to take in Monday.

Therefore, we're going to set the Holiday Weekend Casualty Prediction Model as follows:

  • 1700 hours Friday until 0500 hours Monday
A full 60 hours. And we'll make a wild stab at the numbers:

  • 8 dead, 20 wounded
As a tie-breaker, we'll predict 2 "mass" shootings (four casualties regardless of ending body temperature).

As a further tie-breaker, we're going to predict a single firework death involving some sort of mortar round. If anyone knows how to track missing fingers, toes and eyeballs, let us know - we can't seem to find a HeyJackass.com category for those.

Make your guesses, place your bets, and stay safe.

Officers Shot​


Sketchy details, but both are reportedly doing okay....as okay as you can be after being shot:

  • Two Chicago police officers were shot on the city's South Side Friday evening, sources told CBS News Chicago.

    Reports of officers down near 79th and Chappel on the border of South Shore and South Chicago shortly after 5 p.m.

    Multiple sources with knowledge of the situation said the incident began as a traffic stop. One officer was struck in the vest, the other in the arm. The sources said both officers are expected to be OK and are at University of Chicago Medical Center where their conditions are stable.

    The civilian was taken to Northwestern Medical Center for treatment. Their condition was not immediately known.
Amazing how SeeBS calls the OFFENDER a "civilian" instead of gunman or "alleged" shooter or something. We sure wish the police would get that kind of biased reporting once in a while.

The OFFENDER is supposedly in critical condition after taking at least one round to the torso. Hopefully, he dies of internal bleeding or sepsis or something misery inducing. **** SeeBS, too.

Best wishes and get well soon Officers.
