Watching "Cops" on a Saturday evening may soon have a new twist. One of the first things you hear a cop yell to an offender who exits the car is to, "get those hands out of your pocket!" Whatta ya gonna do now if you're out in public walking the streets like these two photos and the cop tells you to do the same thing? Simple: The hands come out and the pants fall down. You've now just earned yourself a ticket which falls somewhere in the category 
of "public indecency" which is kind of a fuzzy area of the law in the first place. Though probably a few years too late, communities all over are adding this violation to their books. You see, in past years the fashion trend of baggy pants, no belt and showing off your underwear or part of your ass crack has been linked to gangbangers. Again, maybe the "hands out of the pockets" idea is good for those walking around with guns and knives, but the average person will get discriminated against because this IS the law, and EVERYONE is expected to comply with the law... or else! Remember that the next time the repairman from Sears comes over to fix your refrigerator or the plumber crawls under your sink to fix a leaky pipe. First, check to see if this law has been passed where you live, then if the big fella wants to argue about it when you tell him to "pick up those pants!", call the cops. Don't call 911 though. This isn't a big emergency however, it's better off to let the cops handle it than to see the part of the guy's crack where he forgot to wipe!
There's an old Polish song that had the lyrics, "In heaven there is no beer... that's why we have to drink it here". That's what one Chicago area guy is doing now and for his sake, that song better be wrong or there's gonna be an eternity of thirsty Cubs fans buried in his proposed cemetary. When a person retires, he often has lots of time put to use to conjure up crazy iseas such as this one. Now, this isn't a vacant piece of property with nothing going on. This place already is occupied by the dead who, if this guy gets his way, would be moved elsewhere while the empty graves are reserved for the average Cubs fan. What's in store for the "lucky" fan who drops dead and buys a grave? You can be placed in between all the souls who never got to see the Cubbies wib a World Series. ...At least if the first place Cubs season goes downhill the rest of the year, you and your friends can assemble some of the old greats for an "All Star Game" literally, in the stars. No word yet on whether or not this gentleman will get his way to move ahead with his plans however, as the photo illustrates, an ivy covered brick wall is ready to be set in place. Whew!
