|
Posted By: MIISRAEL Bride on April 14, 2009 HOMETOWN MEMPHIS APRIL 14, 2009 TWO SONS: A TRAGEDY 04.14.2009 Memphis, TN Last night around one am two men sat in their car in front of their house, when they were approached by two apparent robbers who began shooting them. The driver of the car was shot and the passenger also wounded by a bullet sped off from the robbers to a local medical center where the driver was pronounced dead on arrival. The two masked gunmen fled in a what the surviving victim described as a silver colored Malibu. The surviving victim is recovering from his wounds. This is also said; the mother of the slain man marks the second of losses of her two sons. One died in a car accident only approixmately two years before. She faces again two times with this being a loss in the second of her two sons. Name of the victims are witheld to protect privacy. No suspects have been arrested at time of this report. Sending my prayers of strength to the mother of a two sons tragedy. A COUPLE OF BOXES: A COMEDY 04.14.2009 Memphis, TN A Memphis woman may be hauled off to sentencing after she went trash hunting to finding a box loaded with applications of employment from a Millington-Bartlett resturant's dumpster. Ashley Johnson was simply looking for a couple of moving boxes when she stumbled on employment applications with social security numbers, addresses and telephone numbers. A perfect way to buy things for her new residence; and not having to deal with paying it back. The suspect Miss Johnson racked up! Filing for credit cards and gift cards using the applicants names. But too much greed led her to put down the free spree. She was caught trying to use one of the stolen identity cards at a local mall's store and was arrested. The owner of MacAllister's Resturant says they couldn't understand how that happen, and usually they shred up applications not selected for hire. When asked who's to blame? I'd say the answer is the it's "just the two of them." Neither of the two are laughing now...but I shook my head and smiled a bit. LOOK TWICE BEFORE YOU ACT : A MYSTERY A Mississippi casino employee took a look at woman playing at a table, but then she look twice for it led to an arrested of a woman suspected as "The Nice Lady". This lady preyed on the elderly asking for assistance as to using their telephone, and greeting her way into their homes to steal from them. She also would take their credit cards and wallets and make purchases. When she finished preying on them she would disappear like a mystery. No one knew anything about her. It's all a mystery why she decided to enter the casino to play a couple of games, it was a double take by the employee that took her down. The casino employee watching closely called the police Crime Stoppers and turned the woman in. The employee stated that she recogonized her from the local posting of her photograph on the a local news channel. Escorted to jail, the woman finally admited she was the one Cassandra Henry, after giving several different names as her alias. The casino worker will receive a reward from Crime Stoppers of $1000 dollars. Now that's TWO looks that landed 1 thousand! What the world needs now is love...sweet love..and romance! TWO IN BUSINESS: A ROMANCE 04.14.2009 Olive Branch, MS Just ahead if you're in need of a haircut, no that's if you're in need for some professional typing. Haircut or typing why not have the two of them? A Olive Branch Mississippi couple has the two of them joined in one location. The Elite Cuts and Professional Business Services are all in one office. The barber, the husband cuts the hair and the professional office worker, the wife will fix you up with a great resume to take to your job interview. The husband and wife team are Sonny and Roxie Hill. They get to do their work together in one place of employment. Each one does their business, but Sonny stated in an local tv interview..."We are a team enjoying to do things together all the time." Romance can be love and work.. I'd say that's real love. I'm loving that you took a stop by to read....Please come again. I think I still have a story or Two left to tell. 'Till then this has been TWO AND TWO from Me to you. I'm Outter Here!
