Since some times I inexplicably turn twelve, can I weigh in that if said nude java drinker looked like Brad Pitt there might have been a different reaction. Okay, maybe just from me. I mean, would you call the police if that was your neighborhood morning program?

The “news” “coverage,” so to speak, seems to reinforce the highly-dubious premise that normal people are dressed 24/7/365, which flies in the face (or other body parts) of reality, but so what else is new?

One of the proper functions of government is to maintain the correct distance between “a little weird” and “illegal.”

Come on. You have to be a little weird to wander around naked with the blinds open.

My response would be, “Crap, I shouldn’t be looking into people’s windows.”

That’s because you were raised right.

Given the predilections of Fairfax County, I suspect they’ll try to bargain him down to, say, drinking non-fair-trade coffee, on the dubious basis that they have to get something for their trouble.

I love how the police are throwing out that “he’s done it before but we can’t prove it” and they’re asking the public to step forward and testify that they saw this guy nekkid before. It sounds like this case has embarrassed the hell out of them, so they’re they’re going to be all over him like they were for Joe the Plumber.

My response would be, “Crap, I shouldn’t be looking into people’s windows.”

I mean, honestly, what people do in their own homes* is really not my business.

(*as long as it’s not harming someone unable to protect themselves. Or committing fraud. Or any number of genuinely should-be-illegal things, instead of the increasing list of illegal-because-we-don’t-like-people-doing-it things)

>you have to be at exactly the right angle, and if you blink you’ll miss it.

Now, is there any need to sell yourself short like that?
