Missing Guy is Local Muscian
SAN DIEGO — Friends and family are searching for a Mission Valley man who left home for work early Monday morning and has not been seen since.
Erick Allen Wales, 24, was reported missing Tuesday morning about 4 a.m., said San Diego police Lt. Ernie Herbert.
Wales left his apartment about 6:30 a.m. for his job at VestaCare in La Jolla, where he works as an information technologist, and has not been seen or heard from since, said friend Rich Cook.
Cook described his friend of five years as a computer guy who loves his iPhone and is constantly in touch. He said that even if Wales is just a few minutes late, he will send a text.
“He’s that kind of guy,” Cook said.
Wales’ cell phone goes straight to voice mail and there has been no activity online, Cook said.
Herbert said detectives are working with Wales’ family and re-traveling his steps but so far have come up with no leads.
“It’s really a mystery,” Herbert said.
Friends are passing out fliers and spreading information via the Web and Twitter.
Wales is described as 6 feet tall, about 140 pounds and slender with blond hair and blue eyes. He was wearing a black shirt, blue jeans and a brown belt. His car is a black two-door Saturn Ion, California license plate FR33BSD, with a broken right side mirror and a KPBS license frame.
Before disbanding in 2006, Dehra Dun were a local sensation. Wales played keytar in the band, which would reform as The Silent Comedy. Anyone with information about Erick should call 619-301-9283.
Anyone with information is asked to call the San Diego Police Department at (619) 531-2000.

HAPPY EARTH DAY!!!
I love this fucking planet so much!!!!! I really really do. Everyone was tripping on how gorgeous the land in Avatar was (myself included) but I think OUR planet is just as wondrous and awesome, we just take it's beauty for granted. Maybe Earth Day is just another April 22nd to you but honestly, if you love the beach, the mountains, a sunset, the smell of rain, your dog, your neighborhood, trees, flowers, anything on the planet, then google "Ways to Help the Environment" and commit to making just a few changes that benefit our planet for years to come and help you really appreciate what we have here!! Start with simple ones like using reusable water bottles and coffee mugs instead of plastic water bottles and paper or styrofoam cups. Bring your old grocery bags to the store or bring bags from home to bag up your items. Use low energy light bulbs, carpool or ride your bike when you can. Hell even going camping and paying to use a state park is helping. Pick up a few pieces of trash today and enjoy the Earth, it sounds so hippy but this planet is really amazing when you break down to the basics. I hate that humans are like this parasite eating up all the natural resources and beauty, lets live WITH the Earth ya know?
You know that ash spewing volcano??
Duh. Well it's called:
Eyjafjallajökull
Which is probably why we just call it "That volcano in Iceland" or that "ash spewing volcano." Shit, we can baaarely manage the pronunciation of Bjork....
Stunt Lady Promotes Eggs
Eggs just got a new role in a commercial. Now they don't demonstrate what happens to your brain on drugs, they demonstrate what happens when you just plain eat them! They are protein packed and nutritious when eaten in moderation. And they certainly got the right f-ing lady to demo THAT. Check out stunt woman Lucci Romberg in this American Egg Board Commercial

The Hottest Chain Letter for Tea Party People Right Now
My father, whom I really used to look up to and respect, sent me the e-mail below today. He is a military retiree so I know this e-mail really hit home and he sent it to a bunch of people. What he didn't do was check to see if it was true. And that scares me because that means my dad will believe any chain e-mail that gets sent to him and that is the mentality of a lot of the Obama Naysayers out there. "As long as it aligns with my belief that Obama is bad, it must be true." When you don't prove your point with FACTS it really make your credibility crumble and it makes it difficult to respect you. They even used menacing snap shots of Obama to create a real feeling. Much like Bush e-mails back in the day. But that's when Bush lied to our nation about Iran and Iraq having weapons of mass destruction so him and his friends could make billions. Read the chain e-mail below and then go over to SNOPES to get the TRUTH AND FACTS about this chain e-mail going around.
MOST OUTRAGEOUS STATEMENT EVER MADE BY A PRESIDENT – Sat. March 6th.
| Bad press, including major mockery of the plan by comedian Jon Stewart, led to President Obama abandoning his proposal to require veterans carry private health insurance to cover the estimated $540 million annual cost to the federal government of treatment for injuries to military personnel received during their tours on active duty. The President admitted that he was puzzled by the magnitude of the opposition to his proposal. |
"Look, it's an all volunteer force," Obama complained. "Nobody made these guys go to war. They had to have known and accepted the risks. Now they whine about bearing the costs of their choice? It doesn't compute."
"I thought these were people who were proud to sacrifice for their country," Obama continued. "I wasn't asking for blood, just money. With the country facing the worst financial crisis in its history, I'd have thought that the patriotic thing to do would be to try to help reduce the nation's deficit. I guess I underestimated the selfishness of some of my fellow Americans."
How in the world did a person with this mindset become our leader?
Please pass this on to every one including every vet and their families whom you know.
REMEMBER THIS STATEMENT... "Nobody made these guys go to war.
They had to have known and accepted the risks. Now they whine about bearing the costs of their choice?"
|
If he thinks he will ever get another vote from an Active Duty, Reserve, National Guard service member or veteran of a military service he ought to think it over... If you or a family member is or has served their country, please pass this to them. _________ |
So he thinks vets should pay for their own health care but the rest of us should pay for deadbeat illegal immigrants on welfare.

HAPPY 420!!
National Weed Appreciation Day! Smoke some weed, listen to some music, enjoy the weather (thunderstorms tomorrow!), and call up some friends to join!
Celebrating 4/20: National Pot Day
From Slate:
There are a lot of rumors about why April 20 is the date that stoners across America unite for an all-day celebration of smoking marijuana. It doesn't matter which, if any, are true. The fact remains: Thousands of pounds of pot will be burned today, and not in backyard BBQ pits. Using decidedly unscientific methods, the Daily Beast put together a list of what it called "America's Highest Cities." To construct and rank the list, the Daily Beast used the following data: the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Service Administration's most recent survey, which estimated pot usage in the past month, arrest data based on pot possession and sale, and a pot-friendliness scale from Steve Bloom, former editor of High Times magazine. To be considered, a city required a metro area of at least 30,000. When the dust settled, Eureka, Calif., was determined to be America's highest city. Not surprising: Eureka is part of northern California's famed Emerald Triangle, the subject of a recent Rolling Stone report that quoted a local as saying every resident was involved in the business of pot. Rounding out the top five were Tallahassee, Florida; Manhattan; Boston; and San Francisco.

Regulate, Control and Tax Cannabis Act of 2010
Opponents of the initiative, including prosecutors and police, say legalization would lead to higher crime rates. In 2008, voters defeated an attempt to relax the state's drug laws.
Supporters say state-run studies have found that taxes on marijuana could raise as much as $1.4 billion in annual revenue.
Polls show that a majority of California voters support legalization. A Field Poll last year found that 56 percent of state voters want to legalize and tax pot as a way to help solve the state's fiscal crisis.

Sex and the City 2, no high hopes here
Carrie somehow apologizing to Big for HIS failure to show up at their preplanned wedding was enough to make me hate The Sex and The City movie. And believe me, there was already enough in there I could have gone off of to still uphold my thumbs down decision (WHY the hell did Charlotte's adopted daughter appear in fucking every scene reducing the girls to baby talk and code language?!). So when I heard a sequel was coming out I couldn't get hard for it. Look's like more faux cheating drama and worst of all? Carrie Bradshaw, who HATES kids is thinking of having a kid. Oh, Big also seems to be repulsed by the idea of having kids too. But you gotta pander to the baby obsessed weak of mind women who eat this dribble up, I get that. At least the fashion will be good (?).

Most Americans Lose Their Virginity in Their Teens
80 percent of men and 75 percent of women lose their virginity by age 19.
While men in their teens and early 20s are more likely to claim that they've circled the bases at least one time, females become the more broadly experienced sex after age 25.
According to the Web site Book of Odds -- using figures from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention -- the chances that a man between the ages of 25 and 44 has never had intercourse are 1 in 35.71; whereas the odds are 1 in 58.22 for a woman in the same age group.
Another interesting fact: if you are a male of sexual age who reports still having his V-card intact, you are more likely to have an IQ that is either significantly higher or lower than average.
Although we can't read too much into that until we see a study which examines the correlation between IQ and giving honest responses to sex surveys.

Persistent genital arousal disorder
From Wikipedia:
Persistent Genital Arousal Disorder (PGAD), originally called Persistent Sexual Arousal Syndrome (PSAS) and also known as Restless Genital Syndrome or Mempin Syndrome (ReGS or RGS)[1] [2], results in a spontaneous and persistent genital arousal, with or without orgasm or genital engorgement, unrelated to any feelings of sexual desire. It was first documented by Dr. Sandra Leiblum in 2001,[3] only recently characterized as a distinct syndrome in medical literature.[4] Some physicians use the term Persistent Sexual Arousal Syndrome to refer to the condition in women; others consider the syndrome of priapism in men to be the same disorder.[4][5] In particular, it is not related to hypersexuality, sometimes known as nymphomania or satyriasis. In addition to being very rare, the condition is also frequently unreported by sufferers who may consider it shameful or embarrassing.[6]
Physical arousal caused by this syndrome can be very intense and persist for extended periods, days or weeks at a time. Orgasm can sometimes provide temporary relief, but within hours the symptoms return. The symptoms can be debilitating, preventing concentration on mundane tasks. Some situations, such as riding in an automobile or train, vibrations from mobile phones, and even going to the toilet can aggravate the syndrome unbearably.[7][8]
A Dutch study has connected PSAS with restless legs syndrome.[9]

'Crash the Tea Party' Rallies Planned Nationwide on Tax Day
From Polotics Daily:
Opponents of the Tea Party movement are planning to crash the group's rallies this week as a way to portray the conservative activists as out of touch with ordinary Americans.
The "Crash the Tea Party" campaign -- which calls itself a "group of Democrats, Republicans and Independents" -- has 65 leaders in major cities across the country who are recruiting members to infiltrate events Thursday, tax day, founder Jason Levin told The Associated Press.
The goal is "to act on behalf of the Tea Party in ways which exaggerate their least appealing qualities (misspelled protest signs, wild claims in TV interviews, etc.) to further distance them from mainstream America and damage the public's opinion of them," according to a mission statement on the group's Web Site.
Levin told Talking Points Memo he got the idea after seeing activists take on the infamous Westboro Baptist Church (the "God Hates Fags" people) outside Twitter headquarters earlier this year. He said the demonstration fizzled when counterprotesters' signs "out-crazied" the Westboro group.
"Every time we have someone on camera saying that Barack Obama isn't an American citizen, we want someone sitting next to him saying, 'That's right, he's an alien from outer space!' " Levin told the AP.
Bob MacGuffie, a Connecticut organizer for Right Principles, a Tea Party group, said opponents "can't actually debate our message and that's their problem," according to a story in the Boston Herald.
New York Tea Party coordinator Judy Pepenella said the attempt to destroy the movement was evidence its message is resonating. "We've been ignored, we've been ridiculed. Well, now they're coming after us," she said.

Yes, There is "The Palm Springs of Washington"
It's Yakima, WA! It's in South Central WA and I'm staying in this lovely town for about 2 days. I thought it was gonna be some hole in the middle of nowhere but it's not so! I just hit up this amazing wine tasting, had an incredible french dinner and stayed at a beautiful Hilton. This place is a major wine region, established long ago by Lewis and Clark. It's gorgeous, has old building mixed with new in this well laid out downtown. 75% of all hops made in the US are here so you know the beer is good. The dining is awesome and the people are nice! Still, we've asked eeeeeveryone WHY it's called The Palm Springs of Washington and nobody, from Yakima lifers to Yakima visitors to Wikipedia, nobody knows why it's called "The Palm Springs of Washington!"
