If you are asking me, I don’t know how to answer that. I’m sorry. All I can say is that given the recent events in Paris, I sure do wish my name wasn’t “Charlie”. Thank goodness that is only a fake name. That’s all that I can say. I’m sorry. ---

Fartyboy got savagely beat down by that skinny little girl? Every once in while I see something in the news that makes me smile. This is one of those times. ---

This story’s sad. Can we go back to making fun of names? A local newscaster, several years ago, was interviewing a local woman whose name he had received on a note card: Announcer: “I’m here with Lady Nasty who is a witness.” Lady Nasty: “It’s La Dynasty.” ---

Probation is the most likely outcome. House arrest is a possibility. Years behind bars isn’t going to happen. ---
