It Must Take A Lot Of Gall.....

Imagine you are having a routine surgery. You're in the operating room, unconscious, oblivious to what is taking place. Of course, what should be taking place is your surgery. The surgery that Sean Dubowik went in for was supposed to be gall bladder surgery-which he got-along with much more. Here's a snip from the AZcentral website:


A Mayo Clinic Hospital surgeon in training used a cellphone to photograph a patient's genitals during surgery and now may face disciplinary action and a patient's attorney. Dr. Adam Hansen, chief resident of general surgery at the Phoenix hospital, admitted to Mayo administrators he snapped the photo during a Dec. 11 gallbladder surgery on patient Sean Dubowik, whose penis bears the tattooed slogan, "Hot Rod."



Please read the full article here.


Judging by the numerous comments on the article, I guess most people think this doctor should not lose his job. And since Mr. Dubowik is a strip club owner and has a tattoo on his penis, then how dare he be upset that someone take a picture of it while he's unconcious and is unable to consent to such a photo.

That, of course, is sarcasm-because I don't think it's ever "okay" to take a picture of someone's genitals while they are unable to consent, no matter what the person does for a living, and no matter what is tattooed on that region. Only Mr. Dubowik knows how truly violated he feels. Just because he owns a strip club and has a penis tattoo, doesn't mean that he's not human, and can't feel humiliation.

What do you think?

There May Be Bears........

Christopher Hewitt wouldn't take "No" for an answer when he allegedly lured two young men to Neff's Canyon in Utah. The metal pipe he carried was for protection from bears. Or so Ben Link and Seth Coleman thought.

For whatever reason, Christopher Hewitt allegedly hit both Ben and Seth with the pipe. Seth was able to escape with minor injuries, but Ben was not so lucky. He was beaten to death

Taxi Ride To The Sky

A few months back, I blogged about a couple who took a taxi ride from New York to Arizona. The retired couple wanted to spare their pets from the trauma of an airplane ride. If you don't recall the entry, it was titled "Hack Job" . Sadly, Betty Matas has passed away in Sedona, Arizona. She was 71. My deepest condolences to her husband, Bob Matas. A sad ending to a heartwarming story.

Because I Sweat

I really have to laugh a lot of times when I hear the excuses that some people use for their behavior. Not because it's funny, but because it's pathetic. Such is the sad tale of a Catholic priest caught jogging naked in Colorado.


The Rev. Robert Whipkey told officers he had been running naked at a high school track and didn't think anyone would be around at that time of day, a police report

The Surprise

When her husband took off the blindfold, he saw sleeping bags, a knife and plastic bags nearby. He ran and called

The Women's Room

If you suddenly find yourself with the overwhelming urge to stop by a local university and masturbate, I have a tip for you:

DON'T DO IT IN THE RESTROOM OF THE OPPOSITE GENDER!!!

This is exactly what Ryan Seese is accused of doing. Ryan, works in some capacity, for the FBI-although a spokesperson is not confirming that he is an actual agent.

It all started when a cleaning lady went about

"Hack" Job

This story is not a crime, but I'm a sucker for a somewhat heart-warming, cross-country traveling story.

So, you've decided to retire and move out of the Big Apple to the dry heat of Arizona. You could pack up all your stuff, your animals, rent a U-haul and head on out. Ahhh, but you don't drive. Okay-so catch a plane, right? Wrong! You just don't feel right leaving your pets in the air cargo

Assault with a deadly russett

People get angry when they have to wait in line. Most people get angry, yell at the manager or the clerk. Then they get on with their life. For one Ohio woman though, this solution seemed a little too easy.
