Only In Glens Falls Baby...

Only in Glens Falls can you get arrested for DWI (Driving while intoxicated) with a BAC of 0.07 percent. It's true. I did a search on Google news for 0.07 percent DWI and the only results of arrests being made are in Glens Falls. Is this just one more reason for you to stay away? You bet!

But I can't really see how they keep getting away with this. Sharon E. Liscum was arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol and drugs, and was found to be in possession of a small amount of cocaine, and even though her blood alcohol content was found to be 0.07 percent, combined with the effects of cocaine she was deemed intoxicated?, Sgt. John Winchell said.

Wrong! Intoxication only pertains to blood alcohol content level. Intoxication from alcohol. When you blow a 0.07 percent you are sober baby, you are below the 0.08 limit! Case closed. This woman needs to hire a good lawyer. And you need to stay clear of Glens Falls, that toddling town!

Stop Arresting people For Driving Sober!

Can we please stop arresting people for driving while intoxicated when they are sober?

A Hudson Falls Teen was charged with DWI early today, with a blood alcohol content of .07 percent, which means that he was sober, not intoxicated, but Craig M. Manney, 18, of 111 Maple Street was still charged with misdemeanor driving while intoxicated, go figure. i'm sick of reading about people getting arrested for drunk driving when they aren't even drunk!

First Drunks Of The Week!

So today is the first day of the week in Glens Falls on the social calendar, as I explained last week. And I have to give honorable mention to a couple people.

First drunk drivers of the week:
There were two drunk drivers stopped and charged at about the same time. The first honorable mention goes to Angela M. Lowery, 26, of 18.5 Wall Street, Hudson Falls. 18.5? That's an odd house number isn't it? She drove into a few snowbanks on Elm Street, with a whopping blood-alcohol content of 0.17 percent, nearly double the 0.08 percent threshold for driving while intoxicated, the article said. Excuse me, but .17 is more than double.

She also was charged with driving without a license and giving the cops a phony name, as if that would do any good, and failure to keep right. Cops said she was carrying $1,300 bucks when she was arrested, and was easily able to post the $500 bail. Did the judge know she was carrying 1300 dollars? If he did why didn't he set the bail at 1300 dollars, that's how small town judges operate isn't it?

But congratulations Angela, great job, keep up the good work!

Next up we have Michael L. Kelly, 25, of 48 Hidden Hills Drive, Queensbury, who forgot to use his little old blinker light when turning at the intersection of Broad and Staple streets. Damn! And he almost got away! With a BAC of 0.15 percent, he was charged with misdemeanor DWI and ticketed for failing to use a signal, and was released pending prosecution. Man that failure to use a turn signal charge has got to hurt.

Keep up the good work Michael!

Fast Cash In Glens Falls

Ah yes, the Labor Ready. Fun and Games? Not! But then again work isn't supposed to be fun and games, hence the reason it's called WORK! How does 7 dollars an hour strike you? And no benefits? And manual labor? Does all this appeal to you? How about arriving to work at 5:30am? If all of this tickles your fancy then labor ready is for you!

But at the end of a grueling 8 hour shift, (sometimes more, sometimes less) you will immediately see the fruits of your labor. Work today, get paid today! That's right you will automatically get paid at the end of each day. And not all the jobs are dirty jobs, thee are some jobs that pay a decent amount of money and are actually clean, and some jobs will actually give you free food!

You gotta walk into labor ready and ask questions, don't just take any old job. Leave the low paying dirty jobs for all the drunks and drug addicts, who will gladly take any job for any amount of money, and will gladly rejoice in it, usually all night long at one bar or another, guzzling cheap headache inducing swill, or piss water as I like to call it. Maybe Milwaukee's Best Ice?
