Doesn't the Tracy Press have spell check? No one claims to have written these blotters, because they can't spell and have terrible grammar! Or is the Tracy Press outsourcing their jobs to a foreign country?

"4:58 p.m.: A caller complained of “very loud Mexican karaoke music” coming from behind the caller’s home on the 1500 block of Vintage Court."
Arriving officers educated mrs johnson on cultural music to include the definition of a mariachi band and provided a calrification as to the karaoke machine that plays cheesy american songs that drunk lyrically challenged mostly non hispanics participate with. Shortly there after, the neighbors offered the culturally challenged mrs johnson some carne asada and cold Modelo for her troubles. written by briandub , August 11, 2008

"11:06 a.m.: A caller on the 1600 block of Parker Avenue reported a missing cat, and said a neighbor recently threatening to kill it."

"4:58 p.m.: A caller complained of “very loud Mexican karaoke music” coming from behind the caller’s home on the 1500 block of Vintage Court."
Why it gotta be Mexican? Why it can't just be music? You racist. written by maybenotdumBcommenT , August 12, 2008

Where would they prefer the music to come from? I am sure the musicians would be happy to play where ever the caller would like.I think the caller was just upset because the Mexicans started happy hour before 5:00. written by Annie Snyder , August 12, 2008
8:51 p.m.: A man asked police to check out what he thought was gang-related graffiti near Jill and Tennis Lane after he saw “Paz” spray painted on a fence. “Paz” is Spanish for “peace".
Let those taggers know that we won't tollerate their Peace crusade here! What's next, Love? Harmony? It's time to take back our streets! written by maybenotdumBcommenT , August 12, 2008
8:36 p.m.: A woman reported a large group of people setting off bottle rockets in the backyard of a home on the 200 block of Adaire Lane. The caller said one landed on a neighbor’s roof, and her husband is fed up and was on his way over to confront the people.
So he ate first before he was on his way over to confront them. Couldn't dinner wait? written by Annie Snyder , August 12, 2008
2:37 a.m.: A caller reported five people were drunk and dancing in the street on the 2900 block of Coventry Drive. The caller said one person told another to “take off his shorts.”

These crazy kids and their dancing! I'll have none of it! I want to know if the "dancer" actually said, "take off HIS shorts", or "take off YOUR shorts"? You see, one is a physical assault and the other would mean that the caller knew the gender of the one with the shorts.....Which leads me to believe the caller was among the dancers....hmmmm... written by Annie Snyder , August 12, 2008
mndc, Ha-ha-ha! Fed up....I get that one!
I am sorry that you could not sleep. My Pop was only 73 when he passed. It was not a shock though. He had been on the road there for a long time. He suffered a lot. Something to contemplate, to suffer or go suddenly. My Granny had time to have an extrimunction (spelling?) party before she went. Pretty funny! written by Annie Snyder , August 12, 2008
Extreme Unction or Extremeunction. Looks like both are correct.

maybenotadumBcommenT.... I knew you would see something funny about using wealth of word play on the rewrites. They are so talented with words!!
Glad to see you turn a new leaf. -amy written by amy , August 12, 2008

6:52 a.m.: A caller from the 1800 block of Thomas De Haven Lane reported that a man got upset the pervious day when the caller’s grandmother waved at him. After the woman waved, the man “pinched and pushed” the caller around.
When I am having a pervious day I wave at men, but they never pinch me! Not fair! I like the word pervious! After looking it up I think it suites me. written by Annie Snyder , August 12, 2008
Woops! I mean suits me. I guess I need more coffee!!!!!

12:12 p.m.: A caller from Wendy’s at 725 W. Clover Road reported hearing a loud crash and then an argument that involved a group of woman. A Honda Accord crashed into a pole after some sort of altercation between the car’s driver and someone else. One witness told police her friend’s ex-boyfriend drove the car. Police called a tow truck.
I have never seen "group of woman" before, not sure what that implies? Body parts, hope not!!!! -amy written by Concerned Parents , August 12, 2008
Speaking of parts do you remember the chili story that took place at Wendy's?

Well, if someone reported seeing people beat up some person at Clyde Bland Park, why didn't they do anything about it?

lol! I was sad, just meander over here and laughed at every one working off that joke. Weight lifted off my shoulders.

I can't believe maybenotadumBcommenT IS STILL AFTER ME AND LEFT ME SUCH HARSH STATEMENTS TODAY IN THE VOICE SECTION ON MISPLACED PRIORITIES.... AFTER I CONGRATULATED HER ON TURNING THE LEAF.
DID YOU OR NOT DID YOU BURY THE HATCHET????? OBVIOUSLY NOT! -amy -amy written by amy , August 12, 2008
Why must you CONTINUE THIS MAYBENOTADUMBCOMMENT.... TODAY?????
-amy written by fortheunderdog , August 12, 2008 amy, I looked at the Voice Archives and read the blog you're talking about. I thought everything was patched up also. It appears not. I'm thinking that the other person may have other agendas on their plate. The previously calm, collected, talk appears to possibly have been a ruse to get back in to converse with everyone. After reading the Voice Archives I've decided that, perhaps, the other person is bi-polar or suffers from multiple personalities. I can't explain it any other way unless they're 5150. I had said earlier that all is well between myself and that other person and that conversing would continue. Although nothing has come back to bite me in the butt it's always better to be a step ahead so I think I'll rescind what I had said earlier and not dialogue with that person. I don't need the drama.  written by bla , August 12, 2008
Written By Barry S. Maltese:
If you try to reach inside of your heart you can find forgiveness, or at least the start And from that place where you can forgive is where Hope, and Love, also thrive and live And with each step that you try to take and with that chance that your heart might break Comes so much happiness, and so much strength which Alone can carry you a fantastic length For hate and anger will not get you there and though you say that you just don't care You can EASILY avoid the pain on which hate feeds . . . the kind of hurt that No one needs Just make the move, take that first stride let go of the thing known as "Foolish Pride" Maybe then you can start to repair the past into something strong, that will mend, and last! written by maybenotdumBcommenT , August 13, 2008
I should have told you amy, I did that before I came to my senses. I obviously couldn't take it back so whatever you think is what you have to do. It was before NOT after. I felt stupid but couldn't change it. If I say sorry it won't mean anything. I was having ups and downs but it was before, honestly. I even tried to find it and thought cr*p I'm an *ss. That's all I can say.
All this hurting each other back and forth is accomplishing nothing. Outing each other Stuff like that. That isn't me in real life. I am not going to make an excuse but a suggestion. Maybe you could have said Hey whats up? You may not like my suggestion but I regretted it. I had an epiphany so to speak. Of course I'm angry at the world right now. Maybe God thought you could take it and I can't right now. I apologize from the bottom of my heart. |
