BIKERNET EMERGENCY MEDICAL RECOMMENDATIONS–Two Hillbillies from Kentucky walk into the local bar to wash the dustfromtheir throats and grab a beer. They stand at the bar, drinking a beer andtalking about current cattle prices. Suddenly a woman at a nearby table,who is eating a sandwich begins to cough. After a minute or so it becomesapparent that she is in real distress. One of the hillbillies looks atherand says, “Kin ya swaller?”

The woman shakes her head no.

“Kin ya breathe?”, ask the hillbilly.

The woman begins to turn blue and shakes her head no.

The hillbilly walks over to the woman, lifts up the back of her dress,yanks down her panties, and runs his tongue all over her butt cheeks in acircular motion. The woman is so shocked that she has a violent spasm andthe obstruction flies out of her mouth.

As she begins to breathe again, the hillbilly walks slowly back to thebarand takes a drink from his beer.

His partner says, “Ya know, I’d heard of that there “Hind Lick” maneuver,but I ain’t never seen nobody do it.

BIKERNET DESPERADOS–Three cowboys are sitting around a campfire, out on the lonesome prairie, each with the bravado for which cowboys are famous. A night of tall tales begins.

The first says, “I must be the meanest, toughest cowboy there is. Why, just the other day, a bull got loose in the corral and gored six men before I wrestled it to the ground, by the horns, with my bare hands.”

The second can’t stand to be bested. “Why that’s nothing. I was walking down the trail yesterday and a fifteen foot rattler slid out from under a rock and made a move for me. I grabbed that snake with my bare hands, bit its head off, and sucked the poison down in one gulp. And I’m still here today.”

The third cowboy remained silent, slowly stirring the coals with his cock.

ROGUE BAD COP REPORT–2 deputies fired over assult charges South Carolina – Two Greenville County Sheriff’s Office deputies were terminated Wednesday in connection with assault charges they face.

Former deputy David Jerry Hannon, 36, of Greer, was charged with two counts of pointing a firearm and assault and battery, according to an arrest warrant.

Former deputy Michael Christian McElroy, 28, of Greenville, was charged with criminal domestic violence, according to an arrest warrant.

The deputies were terminated and then arrested Wednesday in connection with the incidents, which did not occur while they were on duty, according to Master Deputy Michael Hildebrand, a sheriff’s spokesman.

Hannon and McElroy could not be reached Wednesday for comment.

Sheriff Steve Loftis said he can’t ever recall a day when two deputies were terminated on the same day.

“It’s an unfortunate situation,” Loftis said.

According to the incident report, Hannon is accused of repeatedly punching a man following a verbal altercation at a party on Pepperbush Court late Dec. 5 or early Dec. 6.

Hannon is accused of later pointing a shotgun at the man and his wife after they left the party and drove past the deputy’s house, according to the report.

The incident was investigated by the department’s Office of Professional Standards.

McElroy is accused of kicking and shoving his wife sometime Sept. 23 or 24, according to the warrant.

SD HIGHWAY PATROL TO REVIEW TROOPER DESCRETION–In the wake of Congressman Bill Janklow’s manslaughter trial, the South Dakota Highway Patrol is reviewing the level of discretion troopers have when deciding whether or not to issue tickets in traffic stops. Some testimony in Janklow’s trial showed that troopers stopped Janklow for a speeding on a number of occasions but did not issue a ticket.

Colonel Daniel Mosteller says troopers do have some discretion as to whether to ticket, warn or even ignore a speeder while on patrol. He says the Highway Patrol evaluate that.

Janklow was convicted last week of second-degree manslaughter and three misdemeanors in the death of Randy Scott, a 55-year-old Minnesota motorcyclist. Shortly after his conviction, Janklow announced he would resign in January.
