Welcoming in the New Year in Indianapolis.

Pissing down with rain for a day and a half and local wallopers setting off fireworks and firing guns on the stroke of midnight.

White Lies

Just caught the news that ex-Hibbee Garry O'Connor has been found guilty of possessing cocaine. And, but the small matter of being a numpty, he nearly  got away with it.

However, he fled police after giving them a false name, only to be caught a few hundred metres away.
. . . The city's sheriff court was told that the 29-year-old former Birmingham City player tried to con officers on the night of his arrest by telling them his name was Johnstone.But the Scottish international spelled the name "J-O-S". He then pushed police constable PC Katherine Eager aside and ran away.

The message is clear. Don't do drugs, kids. It fucks up your spelling.
