oh man i love living in this state. First the olive garden throat puncher and now this.

FLA! FLA! FLA!

I read that as "lost his arm in a wrestling match," and wondered how he could drive and point a rifle.

....aaaaaand done in one...

The morale of the story: Don't engage in arm-wrestling matches...and if you do, don't lose...and if you do, making idle threats won't fix anything, so just kill your opponent.

My whole body is an engine. This is a fireplug... and I'm gonna light him up.

What I want to know is how all the charges were without intent to kill. How the fark do you point a rifle at somebody's forehead without intending to kill them?!

Bet his lawyer will want an arm and a leg.

I wish I had that over the top website that was posted here years ago. IIRC, it was fairly funny. Anyone have it?

Don't make me kick that chair's ass:

Meet me halfway

Seems excessive... behaviour like that's gonna get you arrested. This is why I always just WIN my arm-wrestling competitions. It's a lot easier, that way. Coming in second through last just increases your chances of jail time which can make your life complicated.

/Current arm-wrestling record, 132-0-1 (the draw is disputed, I'm pretty sure the judge was related to that guy I killed while working for the CIA in Guyana).
//I also write popular mystery novels and own a sailboat.

Wait, how did the match even wrestle him, let alone take his arm off?

/and was it wooden or cardboard?

Came for the Over the Top and Roid rage comments.

I would be upset if I lost my arm.

/should be shot for even knowing that line

Me too. I just assumed that he had an automatic transmission and a very large penis.

I read that as "Man loses arm in wrestling match" and was incredibly intrigued.

Then was very disappointed.

Maybe it's because I just woke up, maybe it's because I didn't drink enough last night but I read that as man loses arm during wrestling match. I was thinking about how bad ass that guy must be to drive his truck and get a rifle, all while spewing blood from his stump.

HA HA HA - me too!

Though I'm not awake enough for it to have occurred to me that it might have made it a little difficult to drive and aim a rifle. But at least then what he did afterwards would have been proportionate to what had happened to him.

"Witnesses told police Blanton also put the barrel of a rifle against the forehead of his erstwhile arm wrestling opponent."

Oh, how quickly we become erstwhile. One moment a arm wrestling opponent then tossed to the erstwhile pile.

/sounds like a word for a Country-Western song.
She was an erstwhile lady that had his baby.
Bang!

That's the first time I've seen the word "erstwhile" in a current news article. Some redneck reporter trying to sound educated, I reckon.

clip - According to the arrest report, Erick Lee Blanton was visiting a home in the 400 block of Sunrise Drive early Sunday morning when he challenged another man to an arm wrestling contest and lost

It can often be amusing to watch the competitive types, that are fixated on the tiresome goal of being a "winner", when they lose.

This bozo wasn't bright enough to just lose at arm wresting. He had to kick it up a notch and lose to the cops too. Musta been funny.

I think he should have just punched some car windows.

What? Another one close to my home?

And yes, I hate living in this area sometimes... There's a reason we call it "Tha Pizzle"...

Sounds like somebody played too much Red Dead Redemption.

Not loaded? Or didn't pull the trigger. If you puss out and don't actually kill the person, I guess they figure you didn't actually plan on doing it. Who knows.

/obscure?

You would do that too if your pupil had lost the match and his opponent went to Okinawa.

/Not obscure by a long shot
//*honks your nose*

Looks like things haven't changed much west of I-95 down there. This kind of shiat used to happen back in the early 80s. One of my friends was run over outside the VB Highlands 7-11 after some red neck asshole lost a fight to a surfer and decided to let his vehicle do the talking. Eventually my friend got a nice settlement, which he wisely invested in the biggest lump of Columbia flake he could find. I had moved to NJ by then.

I heard last year that he died. Heroin most likely.

Anyway, red necks suck.

Obscure? I hope you're joking. But seriously, anybody who's seen the new movie, who replaced Kreese?

/Thanks to FirstNationalBastard for taking care of the Over the Top reference in the boobies. I couldn't think of anything at the time when I submitted this late last night. Yes, I did read your post in David Caruso's voice.

Been by there too many times to count (it's on the way home from work, I swear it...), but I'm partial to the St Lucie Grill. Small, out of the way (even though it's right on US1) and decent food.

Every article should have one or two hard words that send the kids to the dictionary. It is educational.
