The Arcata, CA Police Blotter
This is a hoot... The person who writes the
Police Blotter column for the local Arcata Eye newspaper has a great sense of humor and it shows. A few entries:
September 3rd - 3:46 a.m.
On somebody's porch, he was prowling
A male type, "banging and growling"
The mixed-up man thinking
(Perhaps 'cause of drinking)
That friends owned the home he was fouling.
3:59 a.m.
Though told to leave, growly returned
To the porch where his presence was spurned
Exceedingly lame
But cops too, know that game
And with handcuffs made sure he adjourned.
October 6 - 6:07 a.m. A traveler holding a help-me sign outside a Valley West restaurant modulated his alcohol-tinged exhalations with verbal abuse, directed at a competing signholder whom he alleged had pushed him out of his "space." The spaced traveler and the interloper were advised.
Heh...
