Paul Baldwin is a veteran of the practices of the police department.  He ought to be wise enough to conduct training classes on them, seeing as he’s been arrested 154 times.  The 154th time, in Kittery, Maine, was for stealing some beer.  Specifically, he stole two 18-packs and a 12-pack of beer from a convenience store (or 48 beers, if you’re counting at home).

So just how do you get arrested 154 times without going to jail for your whole life?  Keep your offenses small.  Baldwin’s been nicked in the past for eight trespass notices, 75 citations, having four Social Security aliases, as well as convictions for thefts, receiving stolen property, arson and criminal mischief.  Baldwin is like the Donald Duck of petty crimes!

I have to wonder, when will they finally throw the book at this guy?  Has he even done anything that merits serious jail time this time?  I can’t imagine he stole that much beer; maybe he did stints in jail for the arson or receiving stolen property, but taking a misdemeanor amount of beer probably won’t get him anything more than a ticket.  Still, this is an impressive list of crimes.

Maybe he can steal some lottery tickets next time and hope he hits a winner to pay off his forthcoming fines?

I’ve never had a problem eating food from a gas station.  Just two weeks ago, I ate a couple of hot dogs purchased from a gas station.  They were delicious.  That’s not the first time I’ve eaten gas station food, and I doubt it will be the last.  There’s nothing like a fun food novelty. […]

Commissioner Roger Goodell gathered 32 NFL owners for one big question.  One of the league’s most wanderlust-stricken franchises is looking to move again.  The Oakland-Los Angeles-Oakland Raiders, tired of gutting it out in a run-down stadium, were once again looking for greener pastures.  Only the Miami Dolphins refused to cooperate.  With a vote of 31-1, […]

In 2006, an injury to Dallas Cowboys starting quarterback Drew Bledsoe opened the door for an undrafted free agent by the name of Tony Romo to take the helm of America’s Team and lead the Dallas Cowboys to an early playoff exit.  Bledsoe went from starter to afterthought in a season.  Now, the circle continues […]

For 89 years, Oscars has never had a major mistake.  The last few Oscars might have had a few flubs, but at least they never got the most important category of the night wrong.  Well, that’s now changed, all thanks to OG Bonnie and Clyde legends Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway.  When Faye Dunaway called […]

Tom Brady has been wildly successful, if controversial.  He’s the first quarterback ever to win five Super Bowls and only the second player to do so after Charles Haley.  Unlike Haley, Brady won all his Super Bowls with the same team, the New England Patriots.  The only thing that seems to be able to stop […]

Ben Affleck, no matter what you might think of him, is a talented actor and director.  He’s got the goods, but he’s smart enough to know when he’s in over his head.  All along, since he took on the mantle of Batman, he’s had his eyes on writing, directing, and starring as the Caped Crusader. […]

In May, students for the for-profit American College of Education were running into some problems.  Their access to email accounts and course information was locked down by Google, who had disabled their accounts.  The reason why?  A fired IT worker for the American College of Education locked the school out of their Google cloud account.
