Extended Metaphor Anyone?

Police Shoot Goat After Animal Attacks Woman

(CBS4) SUTTON A Sutton womanwas attacked by a goat over the weekend.

The woman, who wishes to remain anonymous, was out walking her dog on Purgatory Road when the goat became aggressive with her. The woman became scared and called 911.

She was saved by a truck driver who let her into his vehicle. But the goat wouldn't quit and kept coming after them even though they were inside the truck.

Police arrived on scene a short time later and shot and killed the animal.

Frank Kudla, the goat's owner, was not happy with the officers' decision to shoot the animal.

"Very inappropiate....Was he life-threatening? Who did he bite? Who did he injure?"

Lt. Dennis Towle of the Sutton Police defends the officers actions, saying the goat reared up on its hind legs and threatened them.

OMG !!!! Too funny, I pert near busted a gut on this one.

Sounds like somebody we know:
"But the goat wouldn't quit and kept coming after them even though they were inside the truck."

I wonder if the woman had a pair of assult gloves on her, hence the Goat went nuts thinking the woman was going to demand satisfaction.

Twolayer,
I believe Gasperoni is Councilman Tom Sellers' Stepson, who was living with Sellers. After the murder Gasperoni went on the run.


Edwardsville, IL (KMOV) -- For months investigators in Madison County have worked to piece together the circumstances leading to the death of a man whose body was found in a cornfield. It appears that work might have paid off in the form of charges being filed against two suspects.
Joseph Gasperoni and Armando Valdespino.
A motorist noticed Christopher Olson’s body in a field along St. James Road on the morning of June 12th. Olson had been beaten and shot to death.
Evidence collected at the scene led back to two men from Overland. Now Joseph Gasperoni and Armando Valdespino face first-degree murder charges.
Authorities say they are not sure why the men traveled to Illinois to allegedly commit the crime. Police suspect the attack may be drug related.
Gasperoni was arrested Thursday in St. Louis without incident. Valdespino was already in custody in Missouri on probation and drug charges.

It's not a surprise that the media might have confused Armando with Armondo. Seems the two names sound alike. The elder spoke at a recent city council meeting while in his wheelchair. He stated that the mayor shouldn't be blamed for matters that happened before she was elected mayor.
He praised the mayor.
Both spellings of the first names were used in the articles.

To call the 27y/o "the son of Queen Con's only wheelchair supporter" seems quite accurate.

I never knew mayor purzner was being held responsible for things that happened during the previous mayor's term, as Mr. V implied.

Strangely enough, owensby and purzner are most to be held responsible for matters which arose under the previous mayor.
When Mr. May joined the council I believe owensby and purzner were well entrenched.

That the ORT blames the new blood on the council for things that happened while purzner & owensby were in office, reeks of hypocrisy.

Article in the post this morning about the start of the recall.

Just found out Owensby was in ward 1 again, but this time knocking on doors telling people how good the mayor is. When questioned about her lying, of course, he had pat answers. When told she lied about her degree he said "she didn't need one", they said "I'd think you'd need one to be a nurse," he said "I have all kinds of degrees and I don't have to prove it to anyone." Then proceeded to tell them that the other four are just lining their pockets but would not say how.

Also, a person that lives in Maryland Hghts happened to look out their window only to see Owensby & Purzner hauling in boxes out of the trunk of the car into the home. Said they couldn't tell what was in the boxes.

Darn, who do we know of that lives in Maryland Hghts. Think they're having a garage sale.

Sweety why are you so upset & apparently sweating over what you think is a lie, if it's a lie why even respond. Why lower yourself. I did not mention anyones name in that piece. I happen to know quite a few people that live in Maryland Hghts. Funny though you're the only one that responded.

Sweety,

I want a formal apology from you.

Go back and read the post again then go read yours. YOU'RE lying now, no one said they saw them bring boxes into YOUR HOME.

It says "into the home."

No wonder Sellers, Owensby, Purzner and Knode want to get rid of the Police Chief and Members of the Department. Could you imagine if Branch had been the Chief as well as the Queen hiring a few other "reliable" cops for them to use as their own shakedown enforcers? 3 articles regarding Seller's kid who has been indicted for murder:

I heard after the Major Case Squad searched Sellers homes for several hours they came out of Seller's home and said St. Louis County Health Department should be called in to because Sellers house was full of the filth, grime, smut and human waste was inside his house. Sellers are a disgusting low life pig.

Sweety,

I need your advise. On your post you said "and let me remind you this is my property and will have anyone who is causing problems removed."

One, hopefully no one is causing you any problems on or with your property. Two, glad you let me know exactly how you feel about anyone that might cause problems on your property.

Ok, this is what I need to know. Just how would you go about removing someone that is coming in and causing problems on your property?

Because I feel the same way and now that I know how strongly you feel about protecting your property, you can certainly sympathize with those of us in Overland that have been trying to remove outsiders that have been coming in and causing problems with our property for the past 6 months.

I am so glad we are on the same page with this, can't wait to hear from you.

Does anybody happen to know how many signatures were obtained thus far for the recall?

I was able to sign the petition before I split from my pad, man.

New Girl,

I doubt they will be telling. They'd be smart not to.

I just hope everyone is saving everything they are getting or might get from the ORT, so we can have a tickertape parade.

twolayer,
Why do you think they shouldn't let us know the signature count? I don't see where this would hamper the recall, if they let us know. Then again, I don't know anything about the protocol for recall efforts.

Blogger onelayer said...

New Girl,

I would also like to know but I would rather wait for the final count. They have 60 days to go out & collect signatures, I would think the number would be changing almost on a daily basis. And with the way rumors can fly who knows if you're getting the correct count. I personally do not know the people that are running it, so I'm not sure if I would believe a number given on a post.

Second, why not let them sweat it out some, they'll find out soon enough if a recall is going to happen.

You are right. Good things come to those who wait. :-)

Mr. Whitefolks,

Apparently that is who we are talking about, had no idea who it was when I posted that message was not told, but she was good enough to confirm it.

If she really had a garage sale that was purely luck, I was never told that, I do not do garage sales have enough junk of my own don't need to go to Maryland Hgts to get anymore, a lucky guess.

Edgar Casey,

I'm not worried about moth balls, I will not let my wife wear capri's. Unless a woman is built like Mary Tyler Moore they have no business wearing them.

And if Sweety aka Donna Dills is the same person I saw front and center in the Post Dispatch (who by the way would not give her name) is the same she should not be wearing capri's either.

twolayer,
Sourpickles has been paranoid of stalkers for quite sometime now. Nobody would have been the wiser, if she kept her Dill hole shut.

They're coming to take me away,
Haha, they're coming to take me away,
Ho ho, hee hee, ha ha,
To the funny farm
Where life is beautiful all the time
And I'll be happy to see
Those nice young men
In their clean white coats
And they're coming to take me AWAY,
HA HAAAA

New Girl,

If Sweaty aka Donna Dills is so afraid of stalkers she needs to stay out of the limelight. Price you pay for butting in where you dont' belong.

And I'm sorry but she's the last person I would want to stalk. Sorry Sweaty but you're not my type, size or age.

Not unlike our mayor the choices you make are your responsiblity and no one else's. Don't like the attention then quite bringing it on yourself.

And to Brown's a Clown, don't make the same mistake we did by letting him on the board for so long.

Has anyone else had trouble finding flour. Since the members have disappeared again, I can't find any.

I got it, they're making a papermache trojan jackass to roll down Lackland the night of the meeting for a surprise attack to overtake the disgruntled peasants of our city.

It wasn't gargae sale stuff the mayor was hauling in, in those boxes it was paper.

Problem is with the likeness of the mayor for a head, Sellers body & Knode for the ass it will be no suprise. And the dead give away will be Owensby with a giant pooper scooper & trash bags bringing up the rear.

Sure hope it doesn't rain that night.
