67-year-old attack victim uses ‘Three Stooges’ defense
“I had watched the Three Stooges cartoons a long, long time ago. I actually wanted to hook his neck with the front part of my cane, I wanted to hook him and I wanted to pull him inside my kitchen,” Henrietta Lopez said.
67-year-old Henrietta Lopez is describing her first thoughts when she found a man sitting in her car outside of her Corpus Christi, Texas home Thursday night.
“So, he came to me. I don’t know if he was going to attack me or whatever he was going to do, but when he came to me, I let him know that I was not afraid of him and that I was going to take care of him,” Lopez said.
Lopez didn’t have to look very far for a weapon.
“I pulled my cane and I held it just like a baseball bat, I held it and when he came over I just let him have it over the head,” Lopez said.
She says the man tried to block his face with his arm but Lopez just kept on swinging.
“And then he decided, ‘I might as well run for my life because this lady’s not going to give up,’” Lopez said.
After Lopez ran off her would-be burglar, she says officers found him just one street over sitting on a bench, trespassing on somebody else’s property.
“He was sitting in somebody else’s house rubbing his arm, probably rubbing his head so he was sitting there pretending that he lived there,” Lopez said.
The suspect, 18-year-old Jon Michael Perales, was arrested and brought back to Lopez’s home where she identified him as the man she found on her property.
“I told him, I said, ‘Son, I hope this will be the first and the last time that you come into my yard,’” Lopez told 6 News.
And Lopez is positive he did get something out of the experience.
“Something he didn’t want, something he was not looking forward to, and something he’s not going to forget very easily. Every time he walks by my street here, he’s going to remember. And I want him to remember that,” Lopez said.

Golf Digest Asks — What Can President Obama Learn from Tiger Woods?
by Jordyn Phelps
President Obama may have a thing or two to learn from Tiger Woods’ golf game, according to an upcoming article in the January edition of Golf Digest.
But In light of the recent controversy surrounding Tiger Woods’ car crash, there are likely more ways in which the President may wish to distinguish himself from the golf star.
The article lists ten things that the President could learn from the ultra-successful golf star in improving his performance as president, and vice versa, from the perspective of several prominent writers and players.
The magazine cover is a photoshopped image of Tiger Woods in a caddy’s outfit posed behind President Obama as he judges a putt.
…
One of the major lessons that President Obama could learn from Woods is his ability to quickly recover under pressure after a bad hole or two under pressure, writes prominent golf star Arnold Palmer.
“Woods is a good role model — not because he would make a good president (he wouldn’t and neither would Phil Mickelson or anyone else who has spent his working life traveling between driving ranges on private jets), but because he is such a complete master of his talents and ambitions, and because he has always been able to pull himself together after setbacks that would have ruined the rounds, or even the careers, of lesser players,” Palmer says.
Beware a Bride Brandishing a Five Iron
This neat animation from The Far East includes speculation about Tiger’s bride slapping him silly while thinking about the alleged other woman, and chasing his SUV down the road at 2:30 AM with golf club in hand and smashing his car’s rear window in a fiery rage.
Now he says it, now he doesn’t!
Barack Obama’s shills went around telling anyone that would listen that he was a supremely cerebral man, and in fact an accomplished law school professor. Well, like many things about old Barry, when you actually check his resume you discover that his giddy white liberal advocates overstated things, again! Turns out he was never a full professor, and not even an assistant or adjunct professor, but rather a lecturer.
But evidently he doesn’t know much about the law, and the presumption of innocence in particular, when he casually announces that Khalid Sheikh Mohammed will be convicted and executed, but later realizes that his comments could be seen as swaying the potential jury pool and jeopardizing the US Government’s criminal case against KSM.
Obama: “I don’t think it will be offensive at all when he’s convicted and when the death penalty is applied to him.”
Obama: “Look — what I said was people will not be offended IF that’s the outcome. I’m not pre-judging, I’m not going to be in that courtroom, that’s the job of prosecutors, the judge and the jury.”
Like so much in Barry’s life, his excuse doesn’t hold water. Clearly, he didn’t say ‘if,’ but when. Now the white liberal peanut gallery has to go out and plausibly explain how their fearless leader didn’t say what he clearly said.
Barry sure isn’t quick on his feet
QUESTION: And to President Obama, you are a proponent of a nuclear-free world, and you’ve stated, first of all, you would like to visit Hiroshima and Nagasaki while in office. Do you have this desire? And what is your understanding of the historical meaning of the A-bombing in Hiroshima and Nagasaki? Do you think that it was the right decision?
Enjoy the answer!

The great New York Post reports that the usual suspects are dead set against a postage stamp
Benny Hill not fit for stamp?
Britian’s postal service has rejected “Benny Hill” for a stamp because his girl-chasing ways are no longer politically correct.
Royal Mail, as the post office is called there, had been considering a stamp to honor the famously naughty British comic as part of group of stamps to mark the 40th anniversary of his network, ITV, according to a report yesterday in London’s Daily Telegraph.
But, according to the minutes of a committee making the decision, the PR arm of the Royal Mail raised an objection saying Hill’s antics were “in direct opposition to [the] company’s policies on harassment in the workplace.”
“Benny Hill” ran on British TV for 20 years — from 1969-89 — and was one of its first and most successful exports. For a generation of Americans in the 1970s, it was the first British TV show they ever saw.
The show was a half-hour sketch comedy, full of slapstick and scantily clad girls (“Frasier” star Jane Leeves was a “Benny Hill” girl for a short time) usually being spied on by the leering Hill.
Alfred Hill, the actor who played Benny, died in 1992.
