Eye of the Tiger

Risin' up, back on the street/ Did my time, took my chances/ Went the distance now I'm back on my feet/ Just a man and his will to survive

the News-Press had a write-up of a Survivor concert at the Chumash casino..it was in the Scene section.. but the gig was canceled...of course I would never be caught dead or alive at a Survivor concert at the casino...I haven't given up yet and going to a Survivor concert at the casino just means I've given up...is that why the Chumash are getting high on little cans of WD-40 called poppers? because they've given up?

ok I'll stayed tuned alright because this is my bread and butter...and I will not rest until I get a logical answer as to why thousands of child porn images ended up on Wendy's company computer..

but it seems that while Nipper and Wendy are trying to bring back the 1980s cocaine and disco at Nippers pop-up nightclub, the troops at the News-Press are getting restless again..even the non-union ones!

if it's true that survivor Don Katich will be editing Scene magazine in the Friday edition of the News-Press, then I might see some religious stuff..some ads for a plastic Jesus, some words of wisdom from the bible and the latest Christian rock band playing at the casino..Don as I understand is the one who saved the News-Press from the Gates of Hell..and turned it into a Christian rag

and I'll be watching because the News-Press simply doesn't make sense to me...they got God, they got liquor, they got divorce money, they got drugs...they got child porn..

and they got idiots writing opinions...Andy Caldwell, Thomas Sowell and Michele Malkin

the Santa Maria issue

now, Wendy has some upcoming dates with the court system..we know about the wrongful termination case with the photographer, right? but this other case in Santa Maria has been on my mind and today Judge Rigali, in a tentative ruling, denied Ampersand's motion of summary judgement...from what I can gather, this case appears to revolve around a News-Press paper carrier who struck and killed someone, and the decedent's family is suing Wendy...I think Wendy is trying to say the paper gal was an independent contractor and not a News-Press employee which might free Wendy from any responsibility..but the court says "not so fast"..

web: "the court generally examines the evidence presented with the motion in the light most favorable to the opposing party. Where the opposing party will bear the burden of proof at trial, the moving party may obtain summary judgment by showing that the opposing party has no evidence or that its evidence is insufficient to meet its burden at trial."

now Rigali's tentative ruling was long and rambling legalese, but the fact is Wendy/Ampersand is being sued and someone died...in Santa Maria...maybe got hit in the head with a newspaper??

Holy Shit...we got another murder mystery on our hands!!
