I WAS STUPID

     So, for my last blog of 2016, I figured I'd go out with a bang. I apologize to those who read this regularly. I didn't blog as much as I'd like to in 2016 because I am in the middle of writing my thesis for my Master's Degree and it's been quite consuming. Anyhow, thank you for reading whenever I do post something silly.....or at times, serious! 

     To end 2016, I'd like to leave you off with this gem.....So, a New Jersey man accused of sexually abusing a woman on board a Newark-bound flight from India wrote the woman, "I was stupid," in an apology note, according to authorities. 40-year-old, Ganesh Parkar moved from his assigned business class seat on an Air India flight from Mumbai to Newark Liberty International Airport on Wednesday and sat next to a woman in the center row of the economy section soon after the flight took off where he allegedly groped her. Why doesn't this stuff ever happen to me when I fall asleep on the plane? 

     The remaining seats in the center economy row were empty and the woman had only engaged in limited conversation with Parkar. According to authorities, the two did not know each other before the incident. The woman fell asleep and when she awoke, she noticed the blanket she had on her had been pulled down. She then pulled it back up and went back to sleep again. Soon after waking up, she found that Parkar removed the blanket, and allegedly had his hand inside her shirt, groping her left breast without the woman's consent. She shouted at Parkar, "What the hell are you doing?" and she immediately rushed to inform the airline crew of the incident. Parkar then followed the woman down the aisle and the crew instructed him to go back to his assigned seat.

     Once he was seated, Parkar demanded the crew to let him speak with the victim, which his request was denied. So, instead he wrote two noted to the woman apologizing and that he "was stupid." Um, no shit! Who does that to a stranger when they're sleeping? Who is dumb enough to think that she was going to be okay with a total stranger groping her? Again, why doesn't anyone grope me when I'm sleeping on a plane? 

     Parkar, who is of Indian decent, is being charged with one count of abusive sexual contact on a plane. He appeared in Newark federal court on Thursday afternoon and if convicted, could face up to two years in prison and a $250,000 fine. I hope that left breast was worth it, Ganesh! I just can't get over the nerve that someone can have to even try to pull a stunt like this off. I mean the woman wasn't dead, so she obviously was going to feel you groping her. And what did he expect? For her to be like, "Oh wow, you grabbed my boobs! Let's do it!" What an idiot!

PLASTIC QUACK

     Yeah, I know. This guy kind of looks like Negan from The Walking Dead, but he's a actually a plastic surgeon who is being accused of causing a woman's death, but here's the kicker...When they were trying to arrest him, they walked in on him getting a surgery to extend his penis. Yes, he was in the middle of penis enlargement surgery at the time of his arrest. 

     48-year-old Carlos Gustavo Arzuza was arrested in a private clinic in the city of Mendoza, in the western Argentine province of the same name, known for their Malbec wines. It was in the same clinic that Arzuza is said to have performed liposuction and bottom implant on Beatriz Gattari, 49. Gattari died shortly afterwards of reported organ failure. 

     After an autopsy on the woman, prosecutor Claudia Rios told police to arrest Arzuza. Officers were shocked to discover Arzuza in the middle of undergoing penis enlargement surgery when they went to the clinic where he worked. After being arrested, Arzuza was transferred to a hospital It is not clear whether he was performing the surgery on himself or what stage his operation was at when police arrived or whether police allowed the operation to finish before actually detaining him. 

     Arzuza's assistant, 39-year-old Laura Dutta, was also arrested and the clinic was closed. Both suspects are being accused of "simple homicide." There's such a thing as "simple homicide"? Prosecutor Rios added that the private clinic was not registered and did not meet hygiene standards. Surgical tools were seized by police, who are also investigating whether illegal abortions were carried out there. 

     Arzuza was also investigated in 2013, along with a colleague and friend, Carlos Gassibe for "simple homicide" following the death of businessman Roberto del Barco, who underwent abdomen liposuction in July of 2013, but it was alleged that he did not receive proper anesthesia for the operation. After being badly anesthetised, it was alleged, Del Barco suffered cardio-respiratory failure and died. Arzuza was arrested, but released on bail and the case has not yet gone to court.

     Here's what I don't get....If you've been arrested for something you weren't supposed to be doing and you murdered someone, why would you go back to doing what you were doing as if it was business as usual? I hope this newly enlarged penis doctor goes away for a long time. He's nothing but a threat to society. But it is kind of funny that they walked in on his penis enlargement surgery to arrest him!

THE BEST PART OF WAKING UP IS CANNABIS IN YOUR CUP!

     I've never made it a secret that I was always for the legalization of marijuana. When I was in high school, I joined the New Jersey chapter of NORML, a nonprofit organization working to legalize marijuana. Today, it seems I got my wish as many states have legalized the recreational use of marijuana and the medical use of it. This opened the doors to many other products like edibles like brownies, lollipops, and gummy candies. I'm not going to lie, but I tried the gummy candies and if you eat the right dosage, you're in for an amazing time! 

     This morning, I found a story that just made mornings a million times better! Coffee lovers will soon be able to combine their cuppa Joe with Mary Jane for an extra morning buzz. Talk about a pick me up that can put you to sleep! San Diego-based company Brewbudz plans to debut single-serving coffee pods that also hold cannabis. Each cup will contain 10 milligrams of the marijuana chemical THC for the recreational users and up to 50 milligrams for people who need it for medical reasons, plus a jolt of "West Coast Roast" coffee so you can literally "wake and bake."

     The pods, which will cost around $7 a piece, are designed to fit in Keurig coffee brewers and will be completely compostable. So, the company boasts on it's website that the pods are therefore "good for you" and "good for the Earth." Hey, let's just say this is "Very Good!" Brewbudz Vice President Jeffry Paul says, "It's an opportunity to bring together two different rituals in life." 

     The company is due to launch sales in Nevada and Colorado in January and plans to expand to Washington, Oregon, California and Arizona by March. The product is the latest to benefit from the increasing number of states legalizing medical and recreational use of the drug. Nearly a quarter of the U.S. population now lives in a state that has legalized marijuana. 

     Though California legalized medical marijuana 20 years ago, voters only approved it for recreational use last month. The state hopes to make $1 billion in sales tax revenues from the pot business. The federal government still considers the drug illegal and classifies pit as a Schedule I drug alongside heroin. Yeah, I'm not sure why that is. I've never had any of my friends die or overdose because they smoked pot. I can't say the same of the big H. The federal government needs to recognize that marijuana is no worse for you than having a few drinks. It should not be in the same category as heroin and anyone who's smoked pot will agree with me. President Obama signaled that he would lay off state marijuana laws as long as certain requirements were met, like keeping pot businesses far from schools. The Department of Justice Issued guidelines for states to follow. 

     It's unclear how tolerant President-elect Donald Trump will be about the state laws concerning marijuana since his pick for attorney general is Jeff Sessions, who is strongly opposed to legalizing marijuana. State Treasurer John Chiang has already reached out to Trump and California's congressional delegation for guidance on how the state should regulate finances for the industry since banking is a problem for outlaw organizations. Trump has yet to comment publicly on the matter. State Attorney General Xavier Becerra said that his response to Trump would depend on how much the federal government is "trying to intrude on California's sovereignty."

     To be honest, at the end of the day, Mr. Trump is a businessman and I strongly believe he knows that this marijuana industry is big business that could help the nations deficit. I mean anyone with a brain can see that. I am, however, curious to see how this all plays out. Politics aside, though, "weed and coffee!" The best part of waking, or baking up, will be cannabis in my cup! This could be the greatest thing ever!

SHE WON'T TAKE "NO" AS AN ANSWER

     So, it looks like I haven't blogged in well over a month. For those who read this blog regularly, I'm terribly sorry! Life just got busy last month with a trip to Las Vegas slipped in there. I will try to do better. I promise!

     Anyway, have you ever had that ex that just won't go away. Like the Motley Crue song said, "Don't Go Away Mad, Just Go Away!" Well, this story takes place in Ocala, Florida....Yes, I said Florida. I can't really make fun of Ocala, though, since we have family that live down there. So, a man in Ocala got more than he bargained for when he decided it was time to end his relationship with his girlfriend of three and a half years. 

     According to Ocala police, the man broke off his relationship with the woman near the end of November. On December 3, the man returned home from work only to find that his ex-girlfriend, later identified as 22-year-old Melissa Ostrander, had made her way into his home and was waiting for him. Reports say that Ostrander's sole intention was to argue with the man about leaving her. Dude! Just move on! 

     The man told police that he did not want to argue or discuss the relationship with her. Instead, the man left his residence and drove to his sister's house to get away from Ostrander. While visiting with his family at his sister's, he heard a car pull up in the driveway. Seconds later, Ostrander barged into the house and began to yell at the man about their break-up. Wow! I have to say.....This is nuts! Ostrander then grabbed the man by his shirt and attempted to pull him to the floor. That's when the man's sister grabbed Ostrander by her throat, and shoved her outside. It must be cool to have a sister who is an MMA fighter! The family said it appeared that Ostrander was going to leave, but she ran toward the house and again tried to regain entry when an unidentified person then pushed Ostrander, which kept her from entering the house. It must be cool to be related to a WWE wrestler too!

     Ostrander went back to her vehicle, and thinking she was leaving and the coast was clear, the man exited the residence and began talking with someone at the rear of his vehicle. That's when Ostrander positioned her vehicle in their direction, revved her engine, and accelerated toward them. The man, along with the person he was speaking with, were able to jump out of the way before Ostrander slammed into the man's car. The impact caused the man's car to propel forward and hit the residence. Ostrander then "threw" the car in reverse, accelerated again, and struck another car that had arrived at the residence and then fled the scene. What is it with women thinking it's okay to use their cars to play smash up derby? Wasn't there video of this on Black Friday too? 

     Police said there was a juvenile sitting in the passenger seat of one of the vehicles, but he was not injured. Police found Ostrander at her residence a short time later because that's the place I would have went to if I committed a crime and acted like an asshole. No sarcasm there whatsoever. 

     Ostrander told the police that she argued with her ex because they "have to raise a child together," and got upset that he had broken off the relationship. Ostrander was arrested and charged with Burglary, Domestic Battery, Domestic Aggravated Assault, Aggravated Assault, and Felony Criminal Mischief. She was released on an $11,000 bond with a court date set for January 3. Here's the kicker....Back in April 2014, Ostrander was arrested for Domestic Battery. Five months later, she was arrested a second time and charged with Domestic Battery and two counts of Domestic Aggravated Assault with a Deadly Weapon. Now, based on my math skills, if Ostrander was with this guy for 3 and a half years, that means it was "him" that she beat up back in 2014 as well. Why would you stay with someone like this? How many times does she have to get arrested before she finally kills someone? I say put her away for good! The world would be a better place without this "Grimace"-looking piece of crap in it.
