Funny... I always bought my sausage from the Spokane police without problem. I thought that was all they did!
From today's Spokesman Review:
Hmm, interesting (or "interesteen," as Katy Couric says).Detective was fired for exposing himself

The former sheriff's detective who exposed himself to a barista at an Airway Heights espresso stand is asking for his job back, arguing the woman dressed provocatively and led him on.
"I take responsibility. But I don't take full responsibility," Joseph Mastel, 52, told members of the Spokane County Civil Service Commission this week.
Mastel, who was a frequent customer at the On Alert coffee stand, claims the woman often "bent over, exposing herself" while serving coffee and that the two had joked about wet T-shirt contests shortly before he chose to expose himself June 16.
WELL THEN.Mastel, according to the Airway Heights police report of the incident, told officers that he felt he and the barista enjoyed a flirtatious relationship and that there was discussion between the two that amounted to "you show me yours, I'll show you mine."
Accepting to "buy sausage"? You make the call.According to the victim's statements to police, she had accepted an offer from Mastel in June to buy sausage made from pigs he raised. When he showed up in a private vehicle with the sausage a few days later, he laid down five bags of sausage in the window, asked her if she "wanted to see some more" and exposed himself, saying "look, see," according to the report.
I love the inland northwest.

What don't these women understand!
Spokane's actually a pretty cool town these days. It sure has a lot more to offer than Everett.
Spocompton (as one of my coworkers says)
I'm sure she'd show the sheriff, but she did not show the deputy.

I welcome all honest criticism. <Sniff>

The "On Alert" coffee stand. The jokes practically write themselves.
This guy doesn't sound so bright...
This is so untrue that it practically creates a black hole of untruth, pulling other lies into it never to be seen again.Originally Posted by Ryan A
When did you last visit, Kyle?
He's from Spokane. That entire part of the state is a pit of stupid.Originally Posted by Matt Perkins
I admit, I haven't been back in about four years. Has someone given the city a good powerwashing since then? Has global warming eased the six months of brown snow and gray skies?Originally Posted by Ryan A
"SHE WANTED IT." Super. Throw the book at this loser.
