Donk Donks Himself in Bookstore

Well, it's been an interesting few weeks. As many of you know, last Wednesday I went in for neck surgery to have a disk removed and a vertebrae fusion. Fortunately, other than what I may have said under the anesthetics, there are no donk stories to go along with the surgery. I'm home recovering and I'll be here for another week or so.

During that time there were a few donkey sightings worthy of notice. Last week's local 10pm news contained three. In no particular order:

1) A man robs a convenience store in Utah. This happens every few seconds. But, after he took the money, he comes back for a pack of cigarettes. Of course he's caught on camera both times, but unfortunately the reporter didn't go into any more details. At least he had his priorities straight!

2) Apparently there's a fairly severe Iguana problem in a residential area in Florida. Huh?

3) This one is the best of the three. Our local energy company accidentally printed a wrong 800 number in a flyer that went out to 4000 people. What was the number they printed? Ooooh, baby, I'll let you figure that one out for yourself, big guy.

Alone, those don't really seem like extreme acts or cases of donk. That's where this story comes in. This is re-printed, without permission from the web site of a local network affiliate. I won't comment on it, because I think it speaks for itself:

Bad Behavior At Local Bookstore
(Wauwatosa) -- Go into any bookstore, chances are you'll see people reading, talking, or sipping on coffee but not this. Wauwatosa Police arrested a 15-year-old boy for masturbating in the middle of the Barnes & Noble at Mayfair Mall. A customer spotted the boy and saw him watching two young girls while in the act back in July. Security chased the boy out of the store and cops caught up with him in the bathroom of a business across the street from the mall. The boy's excuse? "[We] asked him what had occurred at the mall. He indicated --quote -- 'my thing fell out'" says Wauwatosa Police Captain Jeff Sutter. It turns out the teen had been reported missing from St. Charles Detention Group Home just before this incident occurred. Now, the home won't take him back. The boy was arrested for lewd behavior.

Until next time,
