On Easter Sunday, a former fellow student paid a teen $20 to punch Kelsey, according to investigators, fracturing his neck and crushing nearly every bone in his face.

“He has four titanium plates in his head and face,” Christi went on explaining a long list of serious injuries her son endured from the punches.

The brutal beating was recorded by another fellow student. In the recording, you can hear laughing as Kelsey falls to the ground. Not only scarring Kelsey physically but emotionally.

“It’s violent and evil and there has to be consequences.”

Brandison Dru Daniel, 20, who police say paid the teen to punch Kelsey, faces conspiracy to commit aggravated assault and criminal responsibility for facilitation of a felony charges out of Wayne County. The juvenile is in juvenile detention.

A detention hearing is being held Wednesday for the juvenile. District Attorney General Brent Copper tells News 2 he is considering filing a motion to have the teen moved to adult court.

I am not holding my breath and expect the culprits will serve nothing else than a misdemeanor charge at the end if they plea guilty.

Nikki “brain” Fried is at it again.

And pray tell how much are Floridians paying in State gas taxes?

A whooping $0.24 cents (rounding up).  And I don’t know in Florida, but here in Tennessee, I saw the price jump overnight 2 days ago by 29 cents.

I am not sure the Governor could override the tax, but even if he could, the price of the frigging gas in Florida would still be over $4.00, you dumb pothead!

Oh yes, please remind me what was the price of gas under Orange Man Mean Tweets?

She needs to stop smoking her pot prescription.

New York (CNN Business)Peloton’s turnaround plan can’t happen fast enough: The at-home fitness company continues to lose money — and it’s quickly running out of cash.
The once-hot company reported a dismal quarterly financial report Tuesday, with sales tumbling 15% from a year ago. Peloton lost $757 million last quarter.
Peloton (PTON) said it had just $879 million in cash in the bank at the end of the quarter, which has left it “thinly capitalized,” CEO Barry McCarthy said. That forced the company to borrow a significant amount of money from Wall Street to keep its operations running.
As people return to gyms, Peloton has been struggling to maintain its electric growth from the early days of the pandemic. Bike and subscription sales have stagnated. The company has too much inventory, and demand is on the decline.

Peloton is burning through cash and borrowing from Wall Street to stay afloat – CNN

I never liked Peloton. To me it has always been way overpriced, way snobbish and then they started to lock down your machine unless you forcibly paid an extra “safety for the children” fee. The Peloton bike, the standard bearer of the company is on sale for measly $1,195 dropped from $1,495. The full privilege membership at Planet Fitness which allows you to use all the machines anywhere in the world plus spa, sauna and all the crap they have is $700 a year. Or if you are cheap like me and just go for the Basic Fully Paid, you spend $158 the first year and then drop to $79 per year, that comes to a bit over $10 a month the first year and then $6.60 after that and you get to use all the damn equipment 24 hours a day at your local PF.

The expenditure of one Peloton bike equals a 14 year Basic subscription to Planet Fitness and all its machines.

Does not make sense a whole lot, does it?

And they did. They just forgot that part of the New Testament where Jesus took a whip at jackasses in the Temple.

TACOMA, Wash. — A woman working at a Tacoma hotel shot a man who was chasing her and two other employees with a knife early late Tuesday night.

The Tacoma Police Department (TPD) responded shortly before midnight to the Quality Inn in the 8000 block of S. Hosmer Street for reports of a 45-year-old man with a knife who had been asked to leave the property.

When officers arrived, they learned that the man with the knife had started chasing two women and a man that worked at the hotel. At some point, one of the females shot the knife-wielding man.

It is my belief that some people staying at places not their homes and not in their neighborhoods, decide that the usual rules of cordial interaction and overall civility stop applying to them.

An employee who spoke to KING 5 on condition of anonymity said she thinks the suspect was drunk and that workers had had previous encounters with him. She said that she had never seen the man sober.

And I am going to blame this on management. I understand that coming out of the COVID economic debacle is hard and you need as much clientele coming to your location to spend money but allowing bad guests into your lodging facility is plain dumb. In the era of TripAdvisory and instant news with long archival memory, having your hotel tagged as a place where people get shot tends to be a kiss of death for good business.  This drunk bastard should have been trespassed for good long before this and if he ever returned to the premises, call the cops and had his ass kicked out or plain arrested.

And you as a guest should never let your guard down. I have plenty cases where people have been attacked in their rooms or right outside because they are not paying attention. You do not control the points of access and exit in a hotel; you are just renting the air and furniture inside a big room.

Stay safe, trust no one.

Hat Tip Steve.

This is supposed to be happening now:

So, what’s with that sign?

Sometimes I do believe 99% of these protesters are hired from Craiglist pool of actors.
Or they are dumbass Liberal just up any stupid protest and they do it for free.

They got awfully quiet after they lost their special status in Florida. Do you remember the stock some weeks ago?

Yup, not improving at all.

Am I reading the info right? Has Disney lost $26 billion and change in the last 3 weeks?

Ouch.
