I had some hushpuppies with barbeque yesterday. :)

I barely remember the last time I had either
I bought a fish plate from a church here once & had to toss it. I haven't found anyone here who knows how to fix it the *right* way lol

[FONT=times new roman,serif]HATTON — A man on a backhoe rammed two mobile homes with children and a pregnant woman inside, smashed his estranged wife’s car, hit a truck as its owner tried to speed away and threatened people with a gun Sunday, according to the Lawrence County Sheriff’s Department.[/FONT]
[FONT=times new roman,serif]The rampage by John Mark Borden, 58, of Hatton mostly involved property owned by him and his estranged wife, Jeannie Borden, 49, at 2175 Alabama 101, said Lawrence County Sheriff Gene Mitchell.[/FONT]
[FONT=times new roman,serif]At one point, according to Jeannie Borden, her husband rammed the porch of a mobile home while their 15-year-old daughter stood on it yelling, “Stop this, stop this!”[/FONT]
[FONT=times new roman,serif]Mark Borden also ran his backhoe at Deputy Scott Christy while Christy was in his car, but Christy was able to back out of the way, Mitchell said.[/FONT]
[FONT=times new roman,serif]No one was hurt in the mayhem, the sheriff said.[/FONT]
[FONT=times new roman,serif]Jeannie Borden said afterward that she and her husband are getting a divorce. She said Mark Borden started the melee by breaking a glass door on her mobile home just before she and their children got home late Sunday morning.[/FONT]
[FONT=times new roman,serif]Neighbor Johnny Parker, 43, said he heard glass breaking and realized Mark Borden was trying to break in. Parker said he called Jeannie Borden and learned she was on her way home.[/FONT]
[FONT=times new roman,serif]Jeannie Borden said she had taken out a restraining order on her husband. [/FONT]
[FONT=times new roman,serif]She had moved out with their children and put a mobile home on property they owned jointly, 500 feet from their previous home, where Mark Borden still lives.[/FONT]
[FONT=times new roman,serif]Lawrence County deputies took Mark Borden to jail Saturday and issued him a protection from abuse order, according to the sheriff. Mitchell said Mark Borden made bond.[/FONT]
[FONT=times new roman,serif]According to Jeannie Borden, an officer advised her to take their children and leave for the weekend.[/FONT]
[FONT=times new roman,serif]She said that when she got home Sunday, she saw her husband sitting behind her home on his backhoe.[/FONT]
[FONT=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]Going ballistic[/FONT]

[FONT=times new roman,serif]“When we pulled up, it went completely ballistic,” she said.[/FONT]
[FONT=times new roman,serif]After she and the daughter and son, 11, were inside, he allegedly smashed the back porch so hard that they fell to the floor. Next, they ran to the mobile home the Bordens rent to Parker, and he rammed the front of that residence, Jeannie Borden said, even as his daughter stood on the porch. She said she was able to pull her daughter back inside.[/FONT]
[FONT=times new roman,serif]Parker said that his pregnant daughter and her fiancé were inside with him when Parker started ramming the mobile home.[/FONT]
[FONT=times new roman,serif]Parker said that he went outside to confront Mark Borden, but Borden allegedly pulled out a handgun and pointed it. Parker said he ran to the back of the mobile home.[/FONT]
[FONT=times new roman,serif]Parker said he got into his 1994 Ford truck to try to move it away, but Mark Borden came after him. [/FONT]
[FONT=times new roman,serif]Parker said his tires were spinning and he couldn’t escape. [/FONT]
[FONT=times new roman,serif]The backhoe hit the side of the truck and cracked the windshield. Parker said he finally was able to drive away to a nearby church parking lot.[/FONT]
[FONT=times new roman,serif]Meanwhile, Mark Borden allegedly rammed and smashed Jeannie Borden’s 2005 Chevrolet Equinox, finally flipping it upside down. He also allegedly threatened her with the gun, she said.[/FONT]
[FONT=times new roman,serif]“The kids were screaming bloody murder,” she said.[/FONT]
[FONT=times new roman,serif]Besides battering vehicles, demolishing porches and punching holes in mobile homes, Mark Borden allegedly ran over a dog pen, tore down a utility pole and mangled a shed. Mitchell said Borden circled around on Alabama 101 with his backhoe. He tried to escape on it, but officers were able to tackle him and get him off.[/FONT]
[FONT=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]Arrest made[/FONT]
[FONT=times new roman,serif]Christy, Deputy Charles Hamby, Lt. Tim McWhorter and state trooper Mark Wiesner made the arrest, the sheriff said.[/FONT]
[FONT=times new roman,serif]Mark Borden faces three counts of domestic violence, one count of domestic violence/menacing, two counts of criminal mischief first degree, one count of driving while intoxicated, four charges of reckless endangerment, one count of violating a protection from abuse order and one count for unlawful carrying a pistol.[/FONT]
[FONT=times new roman,serif]He is being held without bond in the Lawrence County jail. Mark Borden’s gun was a 9 mm pistol.[/FONT]
[FONT=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]Held without bond[/FONT]
[FONT=times new roman,serif]Jeannie Borden said she has frequently complained to the sheriff’s office but “they kept saying there was nothing they could do.” [/FONT]
[FONT=times new roman,serif]She said she did not move farther away because she had little money and did not want to go to the Hope Place women’s shelter because she “had heard stories.”[/FONT]
[FONT=times new roman,serif]Mitchell said that his office needs follow-through with the court system by domestic-violence victims to “give us something to work with.”[/FONT]
[FONT=times new roman,serif]Parker said his pregnant daughter was hysterical during the spree but seemed calm Sunday evening.[/FONT] [FONT=times new roman,serif]“If someone could have videoed it, it could have been made into a movie,” he said of the melee.[/FONT]

This morning has been a pain...literally!
9.gif


Went out to start my car (cause there's 2 inches of ice on the windshield :doh:), and fell on the skating rink ice in front of my car.
2.gif
Limped back inside to finish getting ready and when I came out I noticed the ice was still on my windshield. :help: So I scraped the ice and got in the car, went to go and...NOTHIN. The car had died and now wouldn't start.

Went BACK inside the house and asked mom if she would drive me to work. Called the job and told them I'd be a little late. No problem.

Well, mom went out to start her van...saw the neighbor who was on his way to town and asked if he could take me to work. :sigh: (this is a pet peeve...I hate asking for a ride from anyone other than family) But ok...FINE. Went with him in his badly running vehicle. Got about halfway there when his car dies.

So...I call my mom to have her pick me up from off the highway. The neighbor calls his brother to tow his car home.

Got to work almost 45 minutes late...but I made it! :clap:

So now I'm limping my way around wondering if I fractured something and in pain...thinking about how much money I'll have to pore into my vehicle to get it fixed. :doh:

Can you tell it's a Monday? :o I can!!
:sigh:
