Don't pocket dial 911 after you've stolen stuff from Target:
Link Police: Thieves Arrested After Accidentally Calling 911 911 Dispatcher Provides Play-By-Play To Police Posted: 3:07 pm CST December 14, 2011 MADISON, Wis. -- Two retail theft suspects were arrested after one of them pocket dialed 911 from the getaway car, allowing police to locate the suspects as they were attempting to sell the stolen merchandise, Madison police said. Police said the suspects, Jason S. Hamielec, 29, and Brian A. Johnson, 28, both of Madison, stole DVDs and computer games from the Target store on Junction Road on Madison's far West Side about 5:30 p.m. Tuesday. While inside their getaway sport utility vehicle, the suspects talked about where they might get the best prices for stolen merchandise, and they decided on the Video X-Change at 3002 Atwood Ave., police said. The suspects pulled into a parking lot near the Video X-Change and noticed a couple of Madison Police Department squad cars. They were then quickly surrounded by several Madison police officers, a couple with their guns drawn, according to a Madison Police Department news release. Police said that as one suspect got out of the SUV, he asked an officer, "You guys tap my phone?" Both men were dumbfounded by how police knew exactly where they would be, according to the news release. Madison police said that as the two men got into the SUV following the retail theft, one of them pocket dialed 911, so as they chatted about all they had done, a dispatcher was listening in -- via an open cellphone line -- and providing officers with a play-by-play. "They bragged about what they stole, described the vehicle they were in, and where they were going," said one of the arresting officers, according to the news release. Police said the suspects even talked about how police would be looking for a blue Dodge Durango without license plates, so they decided to put the plates back on. As officers inventoried the stolen items and the suspects' property, one looked at the cellphone, which was still on with the dispatcher still listening in. The officer ended the call, which had a duration of 54 minutes, police said. Police said both men were cited on a charge of retail theft and released. |

dola, meaning The pep rally one

About the pep rally thing, I'm surprised that so many parents were willing to kiss their children that way. I mean, maybe they were playing it up for the crowd and faking it, but on the video, it sure looked like some of those parents were truly making out with their kids. I don't get it. I'm not sure I could face my mom anytime soon if she had ever done that to me. Hell, I had a hard time recovering after those three times the hobo outside the convenience store made out with me.

Yeah, the part about that I didn't believe was this:
"...despite the fact that none of the students or parents involved in the kissing antics complained about the routine at all." Now, maybe "complained" is the wrong word, but those kids have to be embarrassed and/or grossed out beyond belief. Especially considering the video can be seen anywhere in the world. But having your friends/classmates see it live had to be mortifying. |

Yeah, I mean if none of those kids feel like killing themselves I'm kind of wondering about that community.

I was wondering whatever happened to that runaway bride chick.

You'd think they'd at least turn off the taser while taking the mug shot.

I like how the person who broke into their car was smart enough to do it while the cop was occupied with questioning them...

My two "favorite" lines: "Foxconn's raised workers pay twice at its factory in Shenzhen, China in 2010 after a spate of suicides, Chinese state media reported at the time." It took a "spate" of suicides to increase pay. "After the 2010 suicides at Foxconn, the company said it was taking measures to improve workers' lives, including organizing recreational activities, calling in Buddhist monks to offer spiritual consolation and setting up a 24-hour help line." I just have this feeling that there was this management meeting: "well, we can only increase their pay a few bucks so how about some recreational activities. Anything to spend money while not actually handing it to the workers!" It reminds me of a scene from the Simpsons (from SNPP): Monty Burns pays a surprise visit to his favorite new employee, lavishing gifts upon her. Marge wonders why morale is so low, indicating several very disturbed employees. I am the Angel of Death. The Time of Purification is at hand. -- ``Marge Gets a Job'' Marge suggests theme days, like ``Funny Hat Day'', and piping in Tom Jones music. The same employees are just as disturbed as ever. The only difference is that they're wearing funny hats and listening to Tom Jones. SI |

That Treaasure Hunt reality TV show that followed these guys was one of my favorite reality shows ever. They only did one season, and I'm guessing it had a lot to do with giving away too much information about how they elude territorial boundaries and what locations they dive at. I really miss that show.
