Cop Sues Victims Family?!

My What the Fuck gage just got pegged while reading the morning paper. There’s a story about police Sgt. Andrea Eichhorn of the Casselberry Florida police force who is SUING the family of a one year old boy who almost drowned because she slipped and fell at the house while responding to the call. Her complaint is the family left a puddle of water on the floor after pulling the child from the pool which caused her to fall and break her knee during the rescue efforts. Excuse me?! The family didn’t stop during their emergency to mop the goddamn floor and this idiot is suing them over it?

Sgt. Andrea Eichhorn, fuck you. Seriously. I don’t care what commendations you’ve received you’re a disgrace to the uniform. It was a drowning call, you should have expected to find WATER on the scene. To sue a family who’s child is living in a nursing home becuase he cannot walk, talk or swallow, a child who breathes and eats through tubes, is one of the most despicable things I’ve ever read.

What’s up with Amazon?

Wasn’t seriously shopping for anything but I had just looked up a TV show name on IMDB and clicked the DVD link in a futile hope that the show would be available for purchase. While over there at the Amazon shopping hell site I checked out my ‘Gold Box’ offers and found the following category:

Hawk’s Quick Picks - Just for you - add one item from this section to your cart and buy within an hour. New items every day!

Listed below that was one of the oddest collections of items… among them were:

iRobot Roomba APS 4905 Battery (I have a Roomba?!)
QuickBooks Pro 2007 for Mac (I don’t have a Mac!)
