Howdy Folks,
Sorry posting has been slow in the last week. But I’m happy to announce that I had good reason. Please allow me introduce you to Chase Thomas, the newest little misfit in town. He was born on Friday night at 10:12 pm, weighing 8lbs, 7 ounces.
We’re very fortunate that Mom and Chase are doing great, and so is his big sister Savannah, who has already nicknamed him “Tommy Catch.”

An officer responded to a dispute on Campbell Street. A 41-year-old man said he gave his gold 1997 Mercury Cougar to a man named “Jack” around 2 a.m. He said Jack wanted to go to the BP station and was supposed to return around 4 a.m.
According to the officer’s written report: “I asked, ‘What is Jack’s last name?’ He replied, ‘I don’t know.’ I asked ‘How long have you known him?’ He said, ‘I’ve been knowing him for a while.’ I said, ‘How long?’ He replied, ‘Two months.’”
The officer continued: “I said, ‘So let me get this straight, you gave your vehicle to a person you have known for two months, named Jack with no last name, so he could go [to] the store around 2 a.m. this morning?’ He said, ‘Yeah, that’s right.’ I said, ‘You are missing some parts of the story.’ He said, ‘That’s it, I’ve told you what happened.’”
A few seconds later, the man reportedly said, “I think Jack is his nickname.”
The officer continued: “I said, ‘So now you have given your vehicle to a person that you don’t even know his real name?’ He said, ‘Yeah.’ I said, ‘You are not telling me the whole truth about this incident.’”
Eventually, the man looked down and said, “I sold the car for crack.” Turns out, he doesn’t even own the gold Mercury Cougar … it belongs to a woman.
