Welcome to The World's Most Dangerous Beauty Salon, Inc.
My name is Susan DuQuesnay Bankston. I live in Richmond, Texas, in the heart of Tom DeLay's old district. It's nuttier than squirrel poop here.
I am honored and privileged to know Miss Juanita Jean Herownself, hairdresser extraordinary and political maven. Since she does not have time to fiddle with this internet stuff, I type her website for her and you can read it if you want to. If you don't, she truly does not give a big bear's butt.
A lot of what I post here has to do with local politics, but you probably have the same folks in your local government.
This ain't a blog. Blogs are way too trendy for me. This is a professional political organization.
What part of Florida does that man hail from?
1We’re lucky Nettles didn’t run his vehicle into a “pound” like it says in the article. He might have made off with a passle of pooches instead of a riding lawnmower.
2Can’t say I have ever read a story like that
3I have come close to backing my riding mower into the pool, but never naked. Never, ever was I naked
I’d scare theneighbors
Yeah, but did they ever find his clothes? Really?
NOW IT’S A PARTY!
4Also, I’m gonna go out on a limb here and specalate that ole’ George has been the subject of some purty entertainin videos since they started putting cameras in cell phones.
5But that’s just a guess.
Has to be in the goober ghomert fan club.
6What would we do without your sense of humor? Someone has to counterbalance all the doom and gloom, and you do it so well.
7Holy Horsepoop, good ol’ George Eric Nettles redefines the charge of DWI, ‘Driving While Idiot’.
If you Bing Georgie it looks like he’s got some ‘history’…
Currently from Smithville, he got nabbed SSW of the little burg of West Point, west a couple miles from La Grange, and 4-5 miles ESE of Smithville. Must of been a wild ride on that mower.
I used to commute through that area on US77&71 mostly, then on SH 159/237 through Round Top to Brenham, Navasota or Bastrop, CS, et al; usually at night. Lots of crazy stuff, especially on the weekends [those Fayette 80% Rethug voting Czech and German descendants get liquored up]. The county mounties and DPS always ran speedtraps all over.
The famous “Chicken Ranch” is about the same distance east of La Grange, off 71. Interesting read:

This sounds like the redneck version of losing your car in the Walmart parking lot — except for the nude part…or maybe not.
9That news story is worthy of a Coen Bros movie. Certainly the opening 10-20 minutes of a rural barn burner of a yarn.
Fantastic story on its own, but in the right hands, my God, the potential!
10driving 5 miles on a riding mower without clothes — even a top speed, it seems likely that would take 30 minutes or so. Wouldn’t you think someone would have been driving the road between 10 and 11 pm? And if a naked person was driving a lawnmower at that time of day, wouldn’t it seem LIKELY to be noticeable to anyone driving on the street from either direction and odd enough to get motivate a phone call to police?
Yet the first report was for someone walking. And apparently, no inquiry about the SOURCE of his intoxication.
11john in denver @11, The locals are probably just glad that the damned fool put the pickup into the pond early on [imagine the truck owner is pissed though], and then had to use the riding mower [both stolen].
Pretty hard to kill somebody with a mower.
If the ahole had continued tooling around in a potentially lethal truck on those local winding two lane roads he might have done some real damage.
Texas still has a pretty damned high highway death count from DWI-related causes.
12And too many of the perps just get a slap on the wrist. I’d give ’em a death sentence if they’ve killed or seriously injured others…
john in denver @11, Oh yeah, RE: “Wouldn’t you think someone would have been driving the road between 10 and 11 pm?”.
This was in a sparsely populated rural area.
The local ranches are worth million$ now though, lots of rich cityfolk have been buying them up [from SA, Austin, Houston…, just an hour or two drive].

13I did an awful lot of driving rural Texas roads from 8PM to 8AM. 9-10 to 5 or so there was often about zilch traffic. Most people and places used to roll it up early, at least in past times during the workweek, Friday football and weekends could be different..
Could have happened in several states, but taking his clothes off because he was wet is particularly entertaining.
I have worked in a hospital and people show up in the ER with stories just this stupid.
14Ummm…
“Intoxicated”? I don’t know if there is that much booze in the world. At least for anyone not from Texas..or Florida.
Reminds me of a story from my junior high days (it was…ahem…a while ago). Someone in the local high school got drunk before school one day and drove his family’s riding lawn mower up and down the main hallway of the HS.
He kept his clothes on, but still got a couple of weeks off (suspension) to think about the error of his ways.
