As the endless, breathless search continues for Kari Ferrell, the “Hipster Grifter” also known as “Korean Abdul-Jabbar,” here’s one crucial piece of evidence: the original “I want to give you a handjob with my mouth” note, which was, amazingly, sitting right there on Flickr since November 3rd 2008. Now, those with Cafe Press T-shirt accounts have a template to work from. Update: Two of her last known roommates speak out.

The Observer’s Eliot Brown did a profile on DOT Commissioner Janette Sadik-Khan and compares her support of the health promoting initiative to the founder of the Red Army:
“On the ideological scale of transportation planning, her policies err far closer to Trotsky than Reagan. She is decidedly pro-bike and pro-pedestrian, and thus inherently anti-automobile, earning her constant praise from the normally critical transit advocates.”

Makes sense, just look at what all those Red Chinese are being forced to ride around on. |Streetsblog|

Like many well behaved white collar criminals, he only spends weekdays at the half-way house, but on weekends, he is free to frolic at his two-acre oceanfront estate in Long Branch, NJ. His mini-mansion is fashioned in a classic Spanish style complete with stucco walls and red roof. Plus, there’s a giant pool with picturesque views of the Atlantic.
Of course there is. It’s just a shame that such a bastion of contemporary well-to-doism will never experience the long-lasting companionship that occurs on those memorable Saturday shower rape sessions.
