I’ve watched garden hoses break by people pulling on them too hard while doing watering. Not a great idea.

Loved that show. As a kid, I had the Mannix Roll down pat.

A decent garden hose should have held his weight if he wasn’t a fat bastard...

Betcha, the stuff he stole caused him to slip and fall...

Note to self: Don’t lay carpeting in strips that can be conveniently sucked out the window.

And never, NEVER go to Nakatomi(sp?) Tower for a Christmas party.

Especially if there’s a Huey Lewis-lookin’ guy at the front security desk.

Should use this incident to advertise for Flex Hose. So strong, you can rapell out of a parking garage, yet roll it up into a ball by simply turning off the water!

That roll can come in handy if you’re even in a limo on the Grand Central Parkway.

That ain’t all they do, apparently. From the same page:

Not the same people...and not even from the same state.

According to Huntington Police, at around 8:15 p.m. Sunday, a man was found laying on the ground on the 700 block of 3 1/2 alley with items laying around him.

D- for grammar.

Apologies to all offended. I missed that in my haste and disgust and will ask mods to remove it.

Sowards has been arrested for petit larceny, destruction of property, breaking and entering into a vehicle, and possession of a controlled substance.


How about booking him for leaving a crime scene, too?

No worries...maybe I'm a little sensitive because I grew up in that town.

I googled his name. Homeboy seems to have a big record. Thought it sounded familiar when posted.

No sympathy from me, and he has to pay the expenses of “rescuing” him.
