Woman tries to cut off sleeping husband's head with a power saw.


dailymail- A woman has been accused of trying to saw her sleeping husband's head off with a power saw.
Police were called to Hoyt Avenue in Everett, Washington, on Friday, and found the unnamed 36-year-old still alive but his head and neck covered in bloody cuts.
When officers arrived at the  family residence they allegedly heard the husband screaming at his wife: 'It was you, it was you - you tried to cut my head off. You're going to jail.' Yesterday the woman, also unidentified,appeared in court on a charge of domestic violence assault and a judge ordered her bail to be kept at $250,000.
When interviewed by police the 43-year-old insisted that she had grabbed the power saw in the dead of night as she thought she heard an intruder escape from her daughter's window.
However, sergeant Robert Goetz indicated that there was no sign of a break-in - a child lock prevented the window in the child's room from opening more than a few inches.
In addition, both the front and back doors were locked from the inside.
He said: 'There was no evidence there was an intruder.'
The husband, who told officers that he woke to find the power tool whirring at his neck, was taken to hospital and treated for the lacerations.
He said he switched on a light to illuminate the dark room and his wife was menacingly holding the DIY instrument.
A Sawzall (a trademark of the Milwaukee Electric Tool Company) with blood on it was recovered from the bedroom floor and a hatchet was found on a kitchen shelf.

What an idiot this lady is. How the fuck are you going to cut somebody's head off with a Sawzall when they're still alive? You have to kill him first, then cut his head off. That blade is just going to bounce around on the soft skin, and he's definitely going to wake up. She should've bashed him over the head with a hammer, or strapped him down so he couldn't move first before breaking out the power tools. I guess if she really had her heart set on killing him with a power tool, a skill saw would've been a much smarter choice. The spinning blade of the skill saw would be much more effective than the sawing blade of the Sawzall. I'm sure if the roles were reversed in this situation, the husband would've used the proper tool.

Mass elementary school principal has a bug up her ass.



bostonherald- A Somerville principal has opened fire on cherished American holidays, blasting legendary explorer Christopher Columbus for “atrocities” and saying “we need to be careful” about celebrating Thanksgiving in a scathing email to teachers — who are already under orders not to let the kids dress up for Halloween.
“When we were young we might have been able to claim ignorance of the atrocities that Christopher Columbus committed against the indigenous peoples,” wrote Kennedy School Principal Anne Foley. “We can no longer do so. For many of us and our students celebrating this particular person is an insult and a slight to the people he annihilated. On the same lines, we need to be careful around the Thanksgiving Day time as well.”
Mayor Joseph Curtatone said, “She raises a fair point. History is messy.” School Superintendent Tony Pierantozzi said her “intention is to be very, very sensitive to all of the many, many cultures” of Somerville. Foley said she just wanted to “open up a conversation.”
“When I grew up, I was taught from a very European perspective of history and it was both embarrassing and enlightening to me when I learned other perspectives,” Foley said. “I want our children and families to know that we are aware of those other perspectives.”
When pressed on the “atrocities” of Columbus and misdeeds of the Pilgrims, Foley said she wasn’t going to “dwell on that.”
“I have friends who are Native American. I have friends from the islands in the Caribbean. I’ve heard their perspective on different things that we say and do — their versions of history,” said Foley.

Anne Foley needs to relax and stop taking things so literally. Sure the anniversary of Columbus' arrival in the Western Hemisphere is a national holiday in this country, but it's not because we all love Columbus and want to honor him. It's actually because Italian immigrants in this country observed the day as a celebration of their heritage. That later led to lobbying by the Knights of Columbus to make it a national holiday. The holiday basically has nothing to do with Columbus himself. Principal Foley condemning Columbus day because of Columbus' actions, is like PETA condemning St. Patrick's Day because of St. Patrick's treatment of snakes.

That being said, I can see how Principal Foley could think some people would be against celebrating the holiday. Native Americans probably have a problem with one or two things that happened to them after European colonists arrived. However, I'm going to go out on a limb here and assume that the celebration of Columbus Day is pretty low on the list. Probably right below being referred to as native "Americans."

P.S. Not really sure about the origins of Halloween, but what I do know is that parents of students that have a problem with witchcraft are probably going to have a problem with basically everything, so your're probbaly better off not encouraging them.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Now be aware of Kim Kardashian's breasts.









I guess you could say I have a love/ hate relationship with Kim Kardashian. I kind of hate the fact that she is famous for no apparent reason, but on the other hand, I will love it when nobody gives a shit about her anymore, like Paris Hilton. Hell of a rack, though.

Gold Rush Alaska is coming back for Season 2!



I love this show. Watching this rag tag group of inexperienced yet optimistic miners search for gold week after week, and then seeing that same group of miners fail miserably week after week, is truly entertaining. Looks like James Harness is back for season 2. That's great, he was one of my favorites. Watching him go through morphine withdrawal was one of the highlights of the 1st season. Hopefully they bring Dorsey back for the 2nd season, too. That guy was the biggest fuck up, and that's saying a lot on a show filled with fuck ups. Think about it, these men were facing tough financial times in their native Oregon. Money was tight and work was scarce, so they did the responsible thing and sunk all of their money into a gold mine a few thousand miles away. That's fucking insane. What drugs were these guys on when they came up with this plan? Well, we know what Harness was on, but what about the rest of them? I guess I really shouldn't complain. Their misfortune led to some really entertaining television. Hopefully they are just as inept in season 2. I would hate to see these shitheads actually strike it rich. Unless of course they finally locate the "Glory Hole" that would be pretty cool.

Wait, Random Task really is an evil henchman?


chicagotribune- An "Austin Powers" actor convicted of torturing a woman in Orange County is suspected of killing his cellmate in a Central Valley prison, authorities said Tuesday.
Joseph Hyungmin Son, 40, allegedly killed his 50-year-old cellmate, who was found dead Monday afternoon at Wasco State Prison Reception Center in Kern County.
The cellmate was a parole violator who had been sentenced to two years in prison for failing to register as a sex offender, according to a prison report. A cause of death was pending.
Prison officials have named Son as the suspect, but officials said charges against him will await the completion of the investigation. Son, who played henchman Random Task in "Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery," was also briefly a mixed martial arts fighter who used the name Joe Son.
He had arrived at the prison reception center Sept. 16 after having been convicted of torture and sentenced to life in prison without parole in connection with the 1990
Christmas Eve rape of a woman out walking her dog.

Wow. This story just blew my mind. I'm sure he murdered his cellmate, but I think the rape conviction may have been a frame job. The defense should have just shown the video of his fight against Keith Hackney. After seeing that, I don't think its physically possible for him to rape somebody.




That clip never gets old. That Keith Hackney was quite a character. The dude looked like a substitute gym teacher and liked pummeling guys in the balls so much, I'm surprised getting "Hackney'd" never took off as a term for getting your nuts absolutely crushed. Just watch him turn the tide in this fight against a sumo wrestler by "Hackneying" this guy into submission.
