Next time they should call before so they can come on time.

Remember when "assault" and "grocery store" were never used in the same sentence?

@2:23, no, but I remember when the only way to hear about crime was reading reports in the newspapers or watching the local news, as opposed to today, when Twitter, regular MCPD press releases published to their own website, and Robert and some other tirelessly devoted folks keep constant vigil on the goings-on in our communities, reporting far more than was ever accomplished in the pre-Internet days.

So is the gunman robber who scared those poor people into getting stuck out on that hotel balcony simply trying to celebrate NYE, out on bail yet, or staying on Mccarthy's sofa?

Our legal intellectual
Deems it so essential
And rather existential
To handle it tangential.
