WTF is wrong with you, Marion County, Kansas
Let me know you're in town, next time. I have bourbon in my office.

WTF is wrong with you, Marion County, Kansas
Today's update on the Marion Police debacle, where we learn that the former CoP and the "victim" likely had a relationship prior to the raid. And we get to see the former CoP prepare to piss in a local convenience store because he forgot to turn off his body cam. That's a bit of a twist from usual cop practice. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/other/most-embarrassing-leak-ever-marion-police-chief-s-own-video-shows-he-s-unfit-to-serve-opinion/ar-AA1k9uqt

Albuquerque recs?
We are Hilton honors members and the Hilton Garden inn around the corner from the Downtown railrunner depot is going to hold our bags until we decide to head north. I’m old and don’t want to drive, that’s what my kids are for. We’ll give Vic’s a try. Thanks for the suggestion.

Albuquerque recs?
Our family is meeting in Santa Fe for Christmas this year so my wife and I are flying into Albuquerque early one morning. Has anybody used the RailRunner transit system to get back and forth between the cities? We don't plan to do much away from the city center at either place and there will be a couple of rental cars from other family members if we do. My only concern is dragging our luggage around after we leave the airport until we can board the train to Santa Fe. Does anybody know if they have lockers at the depots? I could probably hire a bum to watch them.

Another day, another mass shooting
My nephew has been sheltered in place in Lisbon since last night. He tells me that his house is 5 minutes away from the scene and the car was found within a mile of his house. It hits close to home ETA: I really didn't post this to garner any rep or sympathy or even "thoughts and prayers". It was just my turn. In a few days it will be some other persons turn to worry about a loved one or, worse yet, grieve for a loved one. Eventually, all of us will take a turn. This fucking sucks.

The city council had finally suspended him a few days earlier. I had forgotten about this thread until @Pancho started a thread about our other county fuckhead.

If that is important to him, and I'm not sure it is, there will probably be some team that would sign him as a reliever. Hell, I wouldn't mind if the Royals brought him back in any capacity. I'm not sure I really mean that.

Zac has been penciled in to start the last game in KC against the Yankees. Guess I was premature with the postmortem.
