Home. Interesting day at work, I’ll say that. Interesting indeed. Anyway, Drunk Uncle Orangey was pulling a MeanCat move and was waiting for me on the front steps. I came in all excited and made him a plate and as I walk back in Theresa says ‘yeah, that’s the fourth time today...
Go out back and don’t see MeanCat. People who don’t know where MeanCat is at all times don’t live long in Skinnerville. Found him plotting in the boat. So I’m guessing there’s gonna be a maritime caper soon. He loves his little capers. Legally they’re called violent felonies...
I get jumped going back inside by The Lady Orangey. She’s easily the most gongy gongy of the two new agitator orangeys.
And then go to drop cop gear and change clothes and I walk into The Extra Orangey prancing around all full lemur in front of both potatoes. It’s exhausting coming home...

Home. Nice day at work. Some hunches and lucky guesses paid off & I’ll take that every time. Walk up to the porch and I’m struck by how the porch lights are dancing in the humid evening wind. All is calm...or is it...
Because in the back yard I’m ambushed by not one but two ORANGEY NINJAS!! Evidently that’s a thing now with the Orangeys. Ninjas. That’s just super. The Lady Orangey and The Extra Orangey strike from darkness. They’re pure evil. And MeanCat was cheering them on...but...
Inside is no better. The Baked Potato aka Savannah Sweets has stolen all three boneys, leaving SweetDog and The Sweet Potato Pie Pup with only the briefest of memories of a time when boneys were plentiful.

Home. Decent day detecting things & stuff. New shootings = new arrests & that means the real work starts now. It’s the grind part that build solid transparent defensible prosecutions. There are no little things but there are irrelevant things. It’s a grind to figure what is what.
Paused to read @SavannahNow article on Ahmaud Arbery, who was murdered one year ago today just south of here in Brunswick. I hope the state gets rid of the citizen arrest law that has such an ugly racist origin and reality. savannahnow.com/in-depth/news/…
Come home to see Drunk Uncle Orangey aka Druncle Orangey waiting on the steps for I’m guessing third lunch. Can’t pet him but I did put the food down while he looked at me from a foot away. He’s up to no good...

Want to enact ‘gun control’ without the paralyzing insanity and rhetoric? Try this: if you leave a gun in an unlocked car you’re charged with reckless conduct (or some variation). In my city, we have hundreds and I mean HUNDREDS of guns stolen from unlocked cars year after year..
Another thing, write down the serial numbers of the guns you leave around unsecured like candy so that when they are inevitably stolen (‘but I never lock mah car!!) we can work those cases when they’re used for crimes: spoiler alert, they’re ALWAYS used for crime...
You want a gun, great, fine, have a gun. But be responsible. Don’t display them like books in your house. Don’t show unsecured guns in your social media. And STOP LEAVING THEM IN UNLOCKED CARS!!

So this happened at the end of the day: My personal cell rings. Number from Florida I don’t know. I rarely answer these calls cuz it’s endless car warrant social security police scams. But I answer. And Jane says ‘hi skinner!’ So who’s Jane, you ask?
Jane is a struggling neighbor I’ve gotten to know over the last 2 years. Often at chaotic loud calls. More often when I stopped by the side of the road or her tent & talk. Or let her use my phone to video parole officers or just friends. I don’t see her much as a detective....
So today she calls. And says ‘hey skinner. I just wanted to let you know I’m in Florida. In a hospital.’ We talk about her health and hopes for a recovery. And she says ‘I called for two reasons. That if people wonder if I went missing tell them I’m ok down in Florida’...

The culture wars were fought in the decaying Weimar in the late 1920’s EXACTLY as the grifters & bobble heads are doing today. Reading ‘The Coming of the Third Reich’ by Richard Evans is to read what’s happening right now. I’m not being dramatic or alarmist. It’s the same path
He focuses on the acceptance of violence in politics. First in rhetoric & then in physical violence & murder in the days after the revolution that ended Wilhelmine Germany. Sound familiar? Replaced by an old man uninterested & opposed in democratic institutions. Sound familiar?
The endless conspiracy theories of being stabbed in the back by the establishment (the deep state), calling political opponents ‘traitors’. Blaming the Jews and ‘others’. A mythical past that must be returned to by the pure & Patriots. Sound familiar?

Home. New cases same approach. Grind it out. Theresa put together my outfit this morning in honor of her most favorite movie ever...so I got that going for me.
Drunk Uncle Orangey was in his kitty condo so that appears to be his thing now.
Big Eyes is back home after her big surgery. It’s just gonna be awful for months (4-6 months healing!!!) but hopefully if we keep her confined and loved she will be ok. Ugh.
