OK, I exaggerate. It may be only the third or fourth most important video you’ll ever watch. But it’s up there, I’m sure. How could it not? I mean, come on, it’s even got a special announcement at the end, that you really won’t want to miss. And of course it stars yours truly, so it has to be Oscar-worthy, right?

The most dangerous thing about your iPhone isn’t the radiation. It’s not the risk of being smacked in the nose for being a techno-snob because you just HAD to have the latest and greatest. Not even the risk of letting your friends see just how they rank when you are busy texting someone else instead of talking to them! No, the biggest danger of them all is this…
<<<—-
This damned game, “words with friends” has taken over. I won’t say everyone at work is playing it, that would imply we’re… they’re… not doing our… their jobs, and that’s clearly not what’s going on.
Right now, as I write this, I should be in bed, zzzzzzzzzzzzz-ing to wake the band. But I’m not. I’m playing this absurd game. Notice the picture? The blank tile could be an “a”, then all you would need is a “d” for… absurd!
Okay. I’m going to put the phone down, and go to bed, any cute little chime tones indicating it’s my turn be damned!
BTW, my user name is “Coptalker”. Feel free to start a game. Warning, though… I keep odd hours. If I don’t respond right off, it might be because I’m sleeping. Like I should be right now. Good night.

9-1-1, commentary, Humor, News, Personal 9-1-1 marijuana, Connecticut, Farmington, Robert Michelson 2 Comments
21 year old Robert Michelson of Farmington, Connecticut called 9-1-1 to ask if he would get in trouble for having a marijuana plant. The 9-1-1 call can be heard at KFSN TV ABC30’s website, here.
The answer was “yes”. He has the right to remain silent. He should have availed himself of that right before calling 9-1-1. Apparently Robert is not one of the brighter lights of the Farmington area.
He might have gotten away with it, if he’d only used a pre-paid or basic model cell phone. Those can’t be traced. He used, apparently, his wired phone at home. We know EXACTLY where those phones are…
Think of the dumbest question someone might ask a 9-1-1 operator (other than the one Robert asked), and I can assure you someone has already asked it of a dispatcher recently. You’ve heard about the chicken nuggets lady, I’m sure. Or the Whopper not done his way guy. People will call about anything. Most do not end up in jail.
The oddest thing I’ve been asked on 9-1-1?
“When is the fog going to be turned off?”
What’s YOUR emergency??
