Fatwa Arbuckle: Misanthropologist

TGIF from Happy Larryville, GN!

In response to teh fabulous tan suit Il Douchey wore at yesterday’s presser -- wherein he revealed he has no strategy to deal with ISIS -- one wag suggested that “if you’re going to dress like Rommel, you should act like Rommel”.

Sad “heh”.

I know I messed up their plans by not resigning, but that’s not my problem.

No, it’s not, Paddy…and kudos for making it their problem. Why on earth would you resign when they’ve never bothered to tell you what trumped-up sh!t you’re accused of?

They’re actually going to have to make their case to get rid of me or come up with a decent settlement.

In re the latter, I hope you can make it quite painful for the bastards.

Don’t forget that Justice Louis Brandeis said, “Publicity is justly commended as a remedy for social and industrial diseases. Sunlight is said to be the best of disinfectants; electric light the most efficient policeman.”

At the moment I favor a public apology issued from stocks in the public square as a starting point, but I know that will never happen.

I heartily approve of that concept (as I also have re public officials in the Rotherham, UK horror).

Thoughts and prayers, Paddy. I can only imagine how difficult this is for you.

Slow morning. Went to a funeral last night for friend. Sad event. And it was at a Forest Lawn in Long Beach. Took me 2.5 hours to go 60 miles. Luckily got there just as the service was starting.

Happy Friday, Gerbil Nation!
Good morning, Fatwa and Sven!
Thanks for the kind words -- I do appreciate them.

From what I’ve been able to gather from questions asked by the police and answers given by the district HR weenie, a female student accused me of taking a picture of her. I let the police look at my phone and they found nothing. The HR head has talked about grooming behavior. So, yeah, that’s the kind of carp I’m dealing with.

Paddy, I am absolutely appalled at your treatment by the school system and by the little bitch who made the accusation. If there is anything I can do, please, please let me know.

I hope all is otherwise well in the O’Furnijur household.

I’m going to have to commute to Tampa every other week for the foreseeable future. Good thing I love traveling.

Well, you’re about 30 miles away from Teh Younger, so if you ever get bored, you can re-live college life.

I’m going to quit trying to retire. The more I try, the more I have to work!

I finally got an email from the district. They want me to come in Wednesday morning for an interrogation (she actually used the word ‘interview’, but why quibble). Laissez les bons temps rouler!

Juan De Fuca? Is it pronounced the way looks?
Why am I not surprised that Jerrie has an office there?

Prayers going up for Paddy.

I guess that depends on how you look at it.
