And the Snyder Saga Continues

<<--See Also: Roseland is Back! and ...in the other corner...

David and Dorothy Snyder have sent a complaint to the Indiana Attorney General in regards to that fight David Snyder had with Ted Penn. They call his arrest by Town Marshall Larry Miller politically motivated. They are asking that County Prosecutor Michael Dvorak be removed from the case, a special prosecutor be put in his place and that the Indiana State Police take over the investigation.

Here are some of my favorite quotes from the two articles I read:

Dorothy Snyder: "Larry Miller yesterday knew he would be fired by Charley Shields and Ted Penn if he didn't do what they told him to do... That's the climate in our police department."-- Hmm, I bet that climate wasn't helped by her when she had two officers suspended because they didn't take her complaints seriously. I wondered if they feared being fired for not doing what she wanted them to do.

David Snyder: "They're doing the bidding of both Penn and Shields. Penn and Shields wants to... they want to be the rulers of this town. This is a democracy. People are elected to represent other people in a democracy. They want to be lord and king or queen and king as the case may be… and its just not what we do in America... this is not a correct way... it’s just unbelievable." -- No, no. You are confused Mr. Snyder. It was you and your wife who were perceived as lording over the town as King and Queen. Your ideas of how to "represent" the people were obviously a little off.

*sigh* And here I thought Chicago politics was the pits.

Chicago Politics The Pits?

Are they still voting the gravesites? Or, have they all switched to "Hate Dubya Chorus?"

Meet Bob

 I ordered my Ford Escape PHEV on October 13, 2022 and I finally took delivery on September 1, 2023. h/t to my salesman Meet Bob. Actually, I thought I would come up with a better name since my last car was named Patty because I got her on St. Patrick's Day. But after spending about three minutes trying to think of something clever, I threw in the towel and settled on Bob. So this is a base model PHEV. It doesn't have things like a heads up display, 360 degree camera, premium audio system, etc. Mind you, I came from a base fiesta. Patty had roll-down windows and didn't even have cruise control. This is a very big upgrade for me. A little over two weeks in, I've hit 1,000 miles. I've tried to force some non-ev time. I'm not sure what kind of engine break in is needed for this. I figured I should do some of that and get its first oil change before I head down to Florida with it in November. So far, just one and one-quarter tanks of gas used. Averaging 86 mpg. Most

Be fruitful and multiply...by ten.

Some coworkers and I were talking about that lady in Arkansas that just delivered her 17th child. The Associated Press announced the good news a couple days ago and I remembered the family from the Discovery Channel . The Duggar family had been the subject of a number of specials dealing with large families. They are especially memorable given that the number of kids as well as their, well, peculiar lifestyle. The people that I was talking to balked at the idea of having that many kids with a few of them openly calling the Duggar parents crazy. I have to admit, I think that they are little bonkers in the head too. But you know, that’s cool on the other hand too. And it’s actually impressive that they are able to afford to have such a large family. There are some parts of me that would like to have a large family. (My definition of large stops at five kids just so you know.) But their criticisms largely used the Duggars' religious faith. From what this article indicated, they are pa

Whatever happened to the Queer Golden Rule?

Wow, Tyler Whitney is popping up all over the gay blogging circuit but the rest of America doesn’t care. Mr. Whitney is an 18 year old staffer for a Republican candidate for President. He was outed. This has caused a little firestorm amongst the gay bloggies with many calling this guy a bigot, an a-hole, and even worse. The way some people have responded to this, Mr. Whitney is fit to be tied to the stake and burned for not being a good little gay. I do not deny that Mr. Whitney has done some pretty offensive stuff. Carrying anti-gay placards that aren’t even fit to be called “homophobic” certainly strikes points against him. However, as I read more about him the more I genuinely feel the need to reach out and hug him. Because I know that he has got to be feeling pretty alone. He’s getting grief from two communities who are openly hostile to which he belongs -conservatives and gays. I have to ask though, is he really deserving of such scorn? Look, his “crime” is working for an
