BAND GEEKS REJOICE!  *iz proud*  From the AP, via Yahoo's front page:

QUARTZ HILL, Calif. – Don't mess with the marching band. That's what California authorities are saying after a 17-year-old girl used her marching band baton to beat back two would-be muggers.

Los Angeles County sheriff's Deputy Michael Rust says the Quartz Hill girl was walking to school April 24 when two men approached her from behind, tried to grab her coat and demanded money.

Instead, one got a punch in the nose and the other a kick to the groin. Rust says the girl then beat both of them with her band baton before she ran away.

The men had not been caught. But Rust says there's a clear message to take from the encounter:

"The moral to this story is don't mess with the marching band girls, or you just might get what you deserve. Final score: marching band 2, thugs 0."

America's dumbest criminals. Do not attempt to assault someone who is wielding a blunt object! ESPECIALLY if they are doing so in plain view!!!

This one time, at the Buffett concert...

I was just recounting the Buffett wabbit classic "Jack rolled down the hill" story to Kit the other day. She looked a little haunted and said, "Yeah; I knew she was in vet school. But I also knew she was a blackbelt. And I was kinda scared to talk to her at practice." Wise move, Kit. Wise move. ;)
