I think he's talking about Mel Tillis.

Can't quite tell what's in the middle, but the bacon on the outside would be enough to get me to try them!

The sausage of your choice.

But I've done them with shrimp too. Kind of a Vietnamese special.

I used to butterfly shrimp, fill them with a crabmeat stuffing, and matchstick size slivers of bell pepper (red and green) and jalapeno, wrapped in bacon and grilled.

Not on purpose.

Let me get this straight.....I show a picture of bacon with anything....and you immediately think of testicles.

FREUD!!!! Sigmund, we have a new patient for you......

 

[NKBJ]

Did that with marinated, butterfly'd, stuffed and bacon wrapped chicken breasts a while back on the wood cooker.
There wasn't politically motivated violence involved but somewhat of a party.

Maybe, maybe not.


Two former Republican state Senators found killed within their homes in two days

Some speculation from a commenter.

Oh wow, I just thought it was two old people kicking the bucket. But it was two actual shootings of fairly young politicians.

Could be a coincidence, but it's a strange one. Politicians aren't murdered often in this country. I think it would be worth looking into, if only to rule out a connection. Both were shot within a few days of each other, and both are conservative state senators.

Possible motives:

• Linda Collins-Smith

• Worked on a bathroom bill

• Switched from democrat to republican

• Not supported by republican governor

• Have the support of Conduit for Action

• Recently divorced to a circuit court judge

• Owned a hotel

• Believed to be a possible murder

• Jonathan Nichols

• Used to be a district attorney

• Was on the staff of a politician when a controversial anonymous cross-dresser e-mail went out

• Was fired or disciplined professionally a few times for various reasons (personal and political)

• Believed to be a possible suicide

My first thought is that Collins-Smith was murdered by a domestic partner, either her ex-husband or a new boyfriend. It's the most likely scenario. Similarly, Nichols committing suicide is also the most likely, given he is a middle-aged man who seems to have had some setbacks in life professionally.

After that, my next assumption is that Collins-Smith may have been killed in a robbery, though I do not believe that is the case for Nichols. However, he could have been targeted by someone who helped put into prison.

It's unlikely, but not improbable, that this was a political murder. It warrants looking into, like I said before, but these are state senators from two different states (though nearby) who do not have a clear connection beyond party politics. If I was a psychopath who had it out for conservatives who did not like transgenders, for example, I would probably be killing politicians from the same state or picking much more prominent targets. Nichols simply isn' prominent enough.

It's also possible that Nichols was a political assassination, though I strongly doubt Nichols was.

However, I do think Collins-Smith was killed in a domestic dispute and Nichols probably committed suicide. Strange coincidence, but coincidences like these need to be investigated just to be sure.

That doesn't even qualify as rumor. Quoting commenters? C'mon. What next? Drunks at Dave & Buster's?

 

[MCgrease08]

That's some serious speculation happening there.

I believe that it might have been Aliens I mean it might not have been but most likely you know!

Ten drunks at a randomly selected Dave & Buster’s might do a better job of reviewing NFL plays than Alberto Riveron.

I don’t blame you. How dare they make USA football more interesting than watching grass grow. More sports should be like Soccer (ghey football).

Ah, soccer—where a guy takes a little tap on his ankle and falls to the ground writhing around like he’s been hit by a shell from an 88mm Flak gun. Three minutes later he’s back to running at top speed.
