Strawberries, Shirley Jones & Jury Duty

Tomorrow is Strawberry Day. Tomorrow at 10 A.M., when I get off the air, I will be out delivering 6 quarts of fresh, delicious strawberries from Belvedere Plantation. If you registered (on our homepage), I could very well be coming to YOUR place of employment. It costs you nothing to register and probably takes under 30 seconds to do so. The station wanted me to wear this outfit when making these deliveries......
...but I thought it was a little over the top. So, I'll be in regular street clothes. You'll recognize me. I'll be the guy who looks like he's going to fall asleep any moment.

If you have any doubt as to whether or not Hugh Hefner has lost his mind, this should confirm for you that HE HAS. He's trying to get 75 year-old Shirley Jones to pose nude in Playboy. I have no problem with older women doing this. In fact, some have done it and pulled it off pretty well. Farrah did it when she was 50, so did Joan Collins. Nancy Sinatra was almost 55 when she did it, but it seems that there has to be a cut-off at some point. Everyone knows and loves Shirley Jones, a great actress who appeared in a lot of those musicals with Gordon McCrae years ago. She is probably best known for playing Shirley Partridge, the mother on TV's Partridge Family a hundred years ago.

True, she IS still attractive FOR a 75 year-old woman...........BUT POSING IN PLAYBOY!!!?? This is one edition of Playboy where I really will read the articles.

I guess we can put the label, "A REAL DOPE", on this guy.

Twenty-five year-old Grant Faber of Hillsboro, Oregon was right in the middle of jury duty, and it wasn't going exactly as he wanted it to. He found it to be a little slow for his taste. So, when they broke for lunch, Faber went out and never returned. This didn't sit well with Washington County Circuit Judge Gayle Nachtigal, who issued a warrant for his arrest. If you walk out of jury duty without returning, you better have a really good reason. Unfortunately, Faber's reason wasn't so good. When police caught up with him on May 7, they asked him why he skipped out. He told police he was "extremely bored and just couldn't take it anymore". Following the judges orders, the officers arrested Faber on a charge of contempt of court. he'll be arraigned this coming Tuesday morning. If he's found guilty, and I would say it's a shoe-in that he will be, he could get up to 6 months in jail. So, if he thought he was bored before....................
