"Fark: Resident who called cops has prior DUI arrest"
I dont think that is really "Fark"

Some people get a DUI and realize the severity and impact of drunk driving.


The heidi fleiss thing is awesome though

Excuse me, sir? Seeing that the VP is such a VIP, should we keep the PC under QT? Otherwise it might leak to the VC, he'd be MIA, and we'd all end up on KP....

We had a city attorney who was a bad alcoholic. supposedly he was a brilliant man, but the moment he started to drink he would go on a days long bender. Finally things went bad for him really really fast. In less than a year he got3 DUIs, lost his business(he owned a restaurant as well as being a laywer), and his wife left him. So what did he do? He flew to mexico without telling anyone and a week after he got there he ran out of money and was dumpster diving for food. Then he had a heart attack and died on the street with no ID. It took a month or so before they were able to notify his family.

My friend is a used car dealer, and I sometimes will help him out by driving some cars around. Some have earned nicknames, and his little Escort is called Heidi. Because of her.

No she did not. Your punishment is to write "Spellcheck is no replacement for a copy editor" 500 times on the board.

Maybe it was the Middle Eastern section of Pahrump? He drove his car into a market tent?

This is the second time in the last week or so that I've seen this in a news article. It's really bazaar how reporters can't spell.

cherryl taggart: Is the name of the town really Pahrump? Or was someone just clearing their throat when asked?

It is- I used to work for the newspaper there, the "Pahrump Mirror"...which of course makes it CSB time.

EleventyOne: Last I saw Heidi was living in the desert trying to make a man-whore brothel.

Incorrect. She owns/runs a laundromat.

CSB:

I'd been working in Pahrump for less than a week at the paper there when I discovered that Miss Fleiss lived in town. I asked my editor if I could run a story on her, he said that the story had been done to death, but I'd be welcome to go get an interview if I wanted to; he was curious to see what I could get out of her.

Went to her laundromat after calling to set up an appointment; was intercepted at the door by a kindly Asian lady.

"Uh, hi. I'm here to see Miss Fleiss."
"She busy, come back later."
(I could see her in the back, doing nothing)
"Is there any way I could ask her a couple of questions? It won't take long, and this story won't be published most likely."
"I ask. You wait." (I waited.)

I was shown into the back room, where she was sitting.

"Miss Fleiss? I'm here with the Mirror, can I ask you a couple questions?"
"Huh?"
"The Mirror. I'm a new reporter with them."

She stared at me blankly for a few moments, then rummaged through her purse to pull out a phone, which she started messing with. This concluded the interview. I never tried again.

This is a semi-automated transcript of a news broadcast. Basically, nobody cares.

In addition to the already noted bizarre bazaar, I noticed my most recent peeve: "...had no ID on him..." and wonder when this construct took root. I would have written 'had no ID on his person' or 'in his possession' and don't care at all for the "on him" that is commonly used.

Is there a Nazi of some sort who could comment authoritatively on this?

First they came for my transcribers, and I said nothing, because I was not a transcriber...

Could've been when "Beckett was also arrested on charges of embezzlement this past may."

Came here for this, left happy.

Increasingly, editors are overlooked or even removed from the process of content generation. Someone needs to be smacked for that.

I know I didn't get a Pahrump out of that guy.
