This Week's Arrest Log


On 07/31/09 Off McHale #1458 and Off Castro #2300 were patrolling the
100 blk of Eddy St. Off McHale and Off Castro observed a female approach
another female and strike her in the head with a large stick. The two
females then engaged in a savage fistfight. Off McHale and Off Castro
quickly exited the patrol car and ran to separate the combatants. The
suspect then swung the large stick at Off McHale who blocked the strike
attempt to his face with his hands. The suspect’s daughter jumped into
the fray and began to slash at the victim with a razor blade. The
Officers were finally able to separate the suspects and the victim and
arrest the mother /daughter tag team who savagely attacked the victim.
The victim was transported to SFGH for treatment for the lacerations to
her face. 090 778 217

On 07/31/09 Off Wells #2406 and Wilhelm responded to the 100 blk of Turk
St regarding a domestic violence. Off Wells spoke to a witness who told
him the suspect accused her boyfriend of cheating on her. Although he
denied this accusation, she became enraged with him. She ran over to him
and grabbed him by the testicles. When he doubled over in severe pain
she grabbed an object and struck him in the face with an upper cut blow.
She continued to attack him when he was doubled over in pain striking
him several times causing a large laceration and swollen, bloody lip.
She was arrested. He was treated by an ambulance crew.

On 08/03/09 Off Smith #1878 was patrolling the area of Eddy/Taylor St
when he was flagged down by a victim bleeding from the face. The victim
told Off Smith that she was struck in the face by a man. Off Smith
“signaled” for additional units to assist. The victim told Off Smith
that she was drinking a can of 211 beer. The suspect approached the
victim and asked her for a drink of beer. The victim told the suspect
that if he tilted his head back she would pour the beer down his throat.
The suspect agreed. The victim poured the beer down the suspect’s
throat. The suspect became enraged because he stated she had poured the
beer the wrong way. The suspect grabbed the beer away from the victim
and slammed it into her face. The victim fell to the ground and the
suspect continued to hit when she was down. The suspect then walked east
on Eddy St and the victim pointed to him as he was walking away. Off
Smith “signaled” to other units to go and arrest the cowardly suspect.
An ambulance was called for the victim to treat her injuries. 090 783

Bad Day at Work

This situation is pretty familiar to me!

Fringale

Had a fantastic dinner at Fringale this past Monday. Fantastic steaks, wine, and calamari. Great service too. Thanks, Stephane!

Best Use of an iPhone

Mime Golfing

I'm going golfing for only the 2nd time in my life on Saturday and I hope it goes a little better than with this guy!!

Pet Carrier/Jail Cell

These two strips remind me of what Franky would probably do if he could...

HaHa!

Good idea!

Old AWA Matches

Wow! I caught some old AWA Wrestling Classics on ESPN tonight and was reminded of how hilarious Larry Zybysko was back in the day. My favorite Larryisms, living in Larryland, calling people jerks, and then running away from everyone he wrestled. Awesome character. Saw a very young Sean (not Shawn) Michaels, Jerry Blackwell, Mr. Saito, Curt Henning, Eric Bischoff, Baron von Raschke, and Scott Hall too!

Wexler's Mixologist

We had a great dinner at Wexler's a while back and the bartender was featured in the Examiner on Friday. Their drinks are good and unique!!

Laundry Day

How does his cowboy hat stay on? Tonto put on some major weight too!

Worst HR Person Ever

Joe Medicine Crow - 2009 Presidential Medal of Freedom

Congratulations to Joe Medicine Crow as he will beawarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom from Obama on August 11, 2009. He is the last living Plains Indian war chief and person to receive testimony from a person that fought in the Little Big Horn in 1876.

Warren G. Harding

Read a story about the illustrious Warren G. Harding and this cartoon seems to capture it all quite nicely. His life and career seemed to have it all! Clinton and Kennedy had nothing on this guy!

Hippie Weirdo Yoga Farmers

This video has to be one of the more disturbing and hilarious videos I've ever seen. The countdown to this guy showing up on To Catch a Predator starts now!

Tenured Professor

Invasive Species Specialist Group

I thought the name of this group was a joke before reading this article in the NY Times about how Asian kelp is starting to invade the SF Bay. Apparently, the kelp hitchhikes it's way here on ships that are trasporting goods into the Oakland harbor. These invaders apparently start to outcompete the native species and trying to prevent it from happening costs the US $9 billion/year! OUCH! There is also an agency called the United States Federal Aquatic Nuisance Species Task Force. Say THAT ten times real fast!

Brunch and Indian Killing Device


MH had us over for a Saturday brunch of empanadas, steak, pork, corn and seafood chowder, brownies, and gallons of wine. He was also kind enough to save an episode of King of the Hill where Hank finds a few Indian artifacts. One of the appears to be the handle of a tool, but Hank thinks it was probably used to impale white people in the back of the head and then the blood would flow out through the hole. Sounds logical to me!
