There has been much discussion in the United States of late
regarding our right of privacy. I can
assure you that none of those conversations are taking place in West
Virginia! We don’t need no stinking NSA
to know what is going on in the lives of average West Virginians; we just need
to shop on Saturday at our local grocery store and keep our ears open.
This is part of an overheard (it was hard not to overhear
since she was practically shouting into her phone) conversation that occurred
today between the beverage and snack aisles. The talker was between twenty-five and
thirty-five years old, about 5’2”, at least 185 pounds, tattooed in every place
that I could see - and I could see far more than I wanted due to the fact that
she was wearing a muscle shirt and short shorts.
“… said that it would have been just a misdemeanor assault
charge if I hadn’t thrown her into the trunk and driven to the bar. Now they
say it can be kidnapping and that means a long time in jail. Yeah, they just walked right into the bar
and arrested me, just like that. Yeah, they said they were able to find me via
Facebook, I guess I shouldn’t have been saying nothin’ on Facebook. Yeah, I gotta turn myself in on Monday so I’m
getting ripped until then. Yeah, I’m
picking up stuff now and tomorrow the kids will be with their dad so I have the
f…kin day off!”
You just can’t make this stuff up!!
