Man pleads guilty to DWI in motorized La-Z-Boy

DULUTH, Minn. (AP) -- A Minnesota man has pleaded guilty to driving his motorized La-Z-Boy chair while drunk. A criminal complaint says 62-year-old Dennis LeRoy Anderson told police he left a bar in the northern Minnesota town of Proctor on his chair after drinking eight or nine beers.

Prosecutors say Anderson's blood alcohol content was 0.29, more than three times the legal limit, when he crashed into a parked vehicle in August 2008. He was not seriously injured.

The charges should depend on the type of harp the suspect used. If it was an old Marine Band, then just file the assault. If he used a Meisterklasse, file the assault AND the felony abuse of a fine instrument.

And, I still aspire to someday sit in with the Lesser Includeds.

If you're from Austin, the undisputed home of original Texas music, AND you know what a Meisterklasse is, then I don't know if we can perform up to your standards! Well, me, anyway.

The Navy's need for speed is being answered by a pair of warships that have reached freeway speeds during testing at sea.

Independence, a 418-foot warship built in Alabama, boasts a top speed in excess of 45 knots, or about 52 mph, and sustained 44 knots for four hours during builder trials that wrapped up this month off the Gulf Coast. The 378-foot Freedom, a ship built in Wisconsin by a competing defense contractor, has put up similar numbers.

Excuse me, JB, but I wasn't through with my relevant post to this very active and famous thread of yours:
RW, we Lesser Includeds, like the executive branch of the federal government, our very inclusive, and we welcome dissenting views in musical and rhythmic expressions, even to the point of allowing banjo-picking on stage, in moderation of course, and after most of the adoring APLI fans have either left the building or become incapacitated in some way or another.

Now, JB, you can continue with adding to the amazing numbers of views & responses to this most remarkable thread.

Exit only.

Relevancy, harmonicas and banjos are words that do not belong in the same posting together. A harmonica is basically a stringless banjo, or if you will, a banjo is basically a harmonica with strings.

Greg, you just boosted JB's thread views and replies ---- again.

There you go, JB, more thread count, means better quality in sheets, pillow cases, comforters and of course, your posts.
