With apologies to the photographer, this appeared in our local paper today under the headline "Suspect Is Shocked".

    What a bizarre photo! Was this under a satire or something? I mean, this guy (doing his matrix move) does not exactly seem threatening to me!

      i was just about to say it looks like the matrix lol
    2. melindaville
      It really does!

      wow it looks photoshopped...the funny thing is that it is real

      Hmmmmm anyone notice that the guy with the smallest gun is the one looking like a hard a$$ and doesn't need the helmet and camo gear
  2. dcarroll
    maybe he should be lucky he was "shocked" instead of "multiply-shot".

    I feel so wrong for it, but that picture made me laugh. It looks like they gave the poor guy a heart attack and that dog looks hungry.

      MS, Is that Your mailman?
    2. MissSuzie
      I wish.

    I feel even worse about laughing at it, because this was the end of a 9-hour, armed standoff and the guy got hit with the taser and hauled off to jail. The picture and headline cracked me up, though, so I had to share.

      Where is it you live? Remind me to not go there! Those cops/soldiers are scary!
    2. MissSuzie
      Well now I don't feel so bad for laughing.

      This was a very, very rare thing in Fargo, and this guy is the reason we have a SWAT team in the first place, after a stand-off 15 years ago. He's been bad news for years and a lot of folks are hoping that this will be the final straw. The other photos include a caption that specifies that he has stepped out on his balcony for a cigarette after shooting a police robot. Knowing that no one was hurt (outside of the taser part) made the whole set of photos much funnier.

      Ah--so the dude is a wingnut.

      Just have to say--Fargo was one of the best movies ever!

      What did they shoot that cake with?
    2. morinn
      That cake's a real culinary wonder!
    3. legbamel
      Those are fabulous! I bet they were pretty labor-intensive, for cupcakes.
    4. Deray28
      Aww that is very pretty!!! You should send it to cakewrecks (not my blog), I'm sure they'll like it.
    5. ArsenicCookies
      haha I don't know what they did but it was yummy

      Now I'm going to have to surf to figure out how this is done. My daughter would love this.
    7. Sam1982
      I wanna know how to make those!!
    8. Shiley
      Now I know and I'm not tellin' I had to view some real raunchy stuff to find it.
    9. Sam1982
      Hmmmmm I dunno if I'm ready to search through the raunch, and fair enough that you're the cake lady.

      I'll just have to keep the lemon merangue and neopolitan cupcake recipe to myself hehehe
    10. Shiley
      I joined a cake forum. It's ok I'm sure someone has a recipe. Lol!
    11. ArsenicCookies
      I have heard that it is a matter of vanilla batter and food coloring being placed in different bowls and poured in over layers... but in all fairness to Adam, James is the one who made them so he may be guessing to reap in some of the glory

    One piece of that cake and you'll never come down!!!

      That's no way to treat a cruelly elected official.

      Looks like Anok is up to no good again

    will they send the SWAT team to forcibly cut your hair?


    Indianapolis - A call to the city's SWAT team was the final move against one property owner who let his grass grow higher than a foot.

      Ack! The health department just sends someone out to mow, in that case, so long as the yard isn't fully fenced. If it is, the neighbors pretty much get to live with it.
    2. harveyavatar
      Is it unhealthy to have long hair?
    3. legbamel
      Not according to hubby. I wish they'd come mow his face some days, though. He's a shaving slacker. The yard's nice, though.
