May 3, Houston: The big one -- the Inprint reading -- occurs at the Alley Theatre on Monday, May 3. Do not miss it or you'll be sorry. I'm not kidding -- I'm going to say the craziest, most intellectual yet hilarious stuff I can think of, and I'll be sharing the stage with the ultra sexy Oscar Casares, too.
June 24, Houston: I'm one of the peeps scheduled to read at Poison Pen, at Houston's famous Poison Girl bar. Besides me, everyone there will be ultra, *super* sexy. Come see me and drink!
June 26, Washington, DC: I'll be reading at the American Library Association conference. Come on down.
My other blog: Go read my the Houston Chronicle parenting blog (or my ChronMomBlog, as I like to call it) and make sure my kids won't resent me more than other kids resent their own parents.
Buy my new novel, Lone Star Legend. Already did? Well, buy a few more for your friends, then. :)

getting marriedPart of the reason I'm marrying my boyfriend Dat is that we share many of the same values and beliefs. Like "Art is a priority" and "You should never do something just because everyone else does it." We're no Simone de Beauvoir and Sartre, but I do enjoy the home life we've created for ourselves, in which the dining area can become the crafting area and music practice isn't considered noise and fake birds can populate any space for no other reason than their cuteness.
Some of our values might make the act of getting married seem like an oxymoron. But, as so many of y'all know, there are jillions of reasons to get married other than "because I want a big day that's all about me just like everyone else gets to have on TV." So we're doing it for those other reasons. Of course, we want the wedding to reflect our values. Meaning, mainly, that we don't want to spend thousands of dollars on a ceremony that has no personal meaning for either of us.
I went through the old dilemmas that braver women than me have lived through before I was even born. Like: Are we getting married for ourselves, or for others? and then: Even if we're getting married for ourselves, what do we owe our families and the people who care about us and feel invested in our relationship?
Even though other couples have answered these questions admirably and come up with workable solutions, it's really a case-by-case kind of thing, isn't it? No two couple and no two families are alike, so you have to work with what you have and not stick your star-shaped block into the octagon-shaped hole.
Here's the solution we came up with. Here is what our "wedding" will be:
1. On a Saturday morning this May, we will get married at the courthouse downtown. This was going to be just us and the kids, but one of my cousins really, really wants to be there, so we're opening it to anyone who wants to show up.
2. Right after that, we'll have dim sum. Because dim sum has great cultural significance in Dat's family's culture, of course. No, just kidding. It's only because we like dim sum a lot and use any excuse – Thanksgiving, Christmas, Ash Wednesday – to eat it. Again, we planned it to be Dat, me, and the kids, but we're imagining that some of my family might want to attend. So we'll invite Dat's family, too. Anyone else who wants to attend is free, as we live in America, to show up. But we're only paying for ourselves and the kids and our parents. :)
3. That night, we'll have a party at our house. At that party, we'll have wedding cake and champagne. Maybe appetizers, too. Or brisket, if someone wants to bring a brisket. Maybe some potato salad. Or maybe sushi. The food part hasn't been worked out yet. But we'll have a cake and champagne, for sure, and a few more people we know will be invited.
4. In June, we're going to Hawaii. (Not the kids – just me and Dat.) That's our honeymoon. In Hawaii, we will eat dim sum again, if they have it. If not, we'll just eat everything else.
And that's it. That's what it's gonna be. Now that that's settled, we're actually looking forward to it. You know? I mean, we were always looking forward to our marriage, but now we're actually excited about the wedding, too. (I don't want to be a person who looks forward to her wedding and not her marriage. That's a commonly used recipe for unhappiness, in my opinion.)
Do I sound defensive? Right now, there's a message in my Inbox from a certain person. I can't see it until I get home tonight, but I kind of don't want to look at it, anyway, because it's undoubtedly in response to my recent Facebook announcement that I'm planning our wedding. Earlier in our engagement, this person was trying to plan our wedding for us. I love her, but she's one of the people who comes over to our house and says stuff like, "Why the hell do y'all have fake birds on your bookshelf? I don't get it." So I don't really want to get into a discussion about the wedding with her. If I were rich and wanted a big wedding, I'd hire a planner. But first I'd show that planner a bunch of photographs of random things that we think are cool, and I'd watch his/her face. If s/he made a wtf face, I'd know s/he wasn't right for us. You know?
something else that's related to the stuff above, but which I'll discuss in third person
In case anyone's curious, here's a list of possible reasons that a married couple might decide to have separate bedrooms:
1. You both want your own space, not just for sleeping but for other things – fashion, hobbies, decorations – that might occur in your bedrooms.
2. You have completely different sleeping preferences. Maybe one of you needs the door open and the other needs it closed. One of you can tolerate the light on the cable box and the other can't. Both of you like to sleep with your arm under your head, but you face each other and therefore your elbows are at odds. One of you needs cats posted at the foot of the bed throughout the night, and one of you can't sleep with cat hair in your lungs. And so on, and so forth.
3. You can't afford separate houses. :)
4. You see that, often, elderly couples sleep in separate bedrooms, and it's not only because they're more comfortable that way, but also because they're so old that they no longer care what anyone thinks of them. And you think, "Why do I have to wait until I'm older, to stop caring what people think?" And you don't care what people think, and you want to be comfortable.
5. You realize that sleeping in the same bed is neither proof of romantic love nor a guarantee of a satisfying sex life.
6. You enjoy attention, and therefore you enjoy having people come to your house and say, "Oh my god, WHY do you have separate BEDROOMS? What's WRONG? Are you guys breaking up? Are you guys secretly gay? I thought you guys liked each other. I don't understand. What do you mean, you like it better this way? What's WRONG with you two? That's not what married people DO. What do you mean, you like your cats to sleep on the bed? That's DISGUSTING."
Just kidding on that last one. That one goes on the cons list. But, hey, it's one of a very few things on the cons list, apart from "can't yet afford a house with separate bedrooms."
I'm not telling you guys this because I believe you're the kind of judgmental that needs an explanation. I'm telling you guys this because maybe some of you want to sleep in separate bedrooms and are going over the rationale, compiling lists of pros and cons. In that case, you're welcome to my reasons.
Love is…
… feeling like you've created your own space in the world -- you and your partner -- that doesn't need anyone else's approval. Or maybe that's what codependence is? I get those two confused...
Just kidding. Ha. Love is... worth sharing, right? I feel protective of the people and things I really, really care about, which is why you don't see me posting a lot about my relationships with Dat and my kids. But I know some of y'all have been following this journal for a long, long time, and that some of you identify with the main character in it (heh) in certain ways. So, for the sake of the story and its readers, I'm sharing with y'all that, after careful consideration, I've found love worth making into a legal entity, and a relationship that I believe will create long-term, overriding happiness for me, for him, and for our family.
And, in sharing this with y'all, I'm sending out good vibes and hopes that y'all have found or will find the same.

Gwen, your wedding sounds awesome. I'll only offer one thing: you may want to check with City Hall as far as how many people can attend before you throw the offer open to a ton of folks. Here in San Francisco you're only allowed to have 6 people other than the couple at the ceremony. I guess they were having problems with groups of 50 showing up and completely over running the place. Still, have fun on the day and keep your plans, they sound sweet and fun.As for the separate rooms thing, most of my married theater friends at least have a "guest room" which is actually the room one or the other partner uses when they're working late nights and don't want to mess with the other person's schedule. I think it makes perfect sense myself, having had to share a bed/bedroom with horrible snorers several times.

OK Gwen, I love you for calling him Tad for all these years in the blog when his name is really Dat. That is so funny to me!
I found that buying a bigger bed solved a lot of the sleeping together issues. I think in an ideal world we'd both have our own bedrooms and offices but we are not yet living in that world.
# posted by : 1:03 PM
I totally know what you mean. A girlfriend of mine got married at 5 in the morning on a Saturday because she and her husband wanted to start their new life together at the beginning of a new day. They also got married in a park because the love the outdoors. Afterwards, they had a small reception where they served breakfast (it was like 7 a.m.) and instead of cake they had cupcakes. It was really cool, but boy did they get flack!
# posted by : 1:04 PM
I agree completely about doing your own thing, especially the bedroom situation. I was in the middle of that argument recently, and even blogged about it. Consistently getting a good night's sleep is way more important than what others think of your arrangement.
# posted by Esmeralda : 1:59 PM
Gwen -- I've been following you since the trailer park days, and I feel obliged to tell you that you deserve every single bit of happiness you can grab. Just tell those naysayers to get over it -- and promise you'll hold your fire when they make their own decisions about their own lives.
I am very happy for you and Dat and wish you all the best life has to offer.
PS -- I hope you'll post pics on your Facebook of the big day.

This post made me all tearful. Sniff! It's been such a privilege to watch your story unfold, Gwen. You deserve all the happiness in the world, and it's clear that your family (including Dat) is bringing you a great deal of satisfaction.
Now I will sit back and wait for you to post about what you're wearing for the wedding and dinner, and all the unsolicited opinions you're getting on this topic.
# posted by Jackie D : 2:26 PM
I've been reading your blog since you were just an upset housewife in Texas and have followed through a divorce, finding yourself, and finally finding love and happiness. I'm so happy for you girl!!! Just know that you have a one person cheerleading squad right here in So-Cal.
I feel that you and Dat know what you want and that you guys should totally go for it. Ignore all the haters and do what makes you feel good.
Yay Gwen!!!

Long time reader - so glad to hear about your wedding plans! Sounds like you are going about it the perfect way, too.
Also wanted to comment about the 2 bedrooms thing - I've been sleeping in our guest room ever since I got pregnant and became completely unable to sleep except under the absolute perfect circumstances. Circumstances that did not include a less-than-supportive mattress and a husband on shift work coming home at random wee hours in the morning. I love having my own bed so much, I will probably continue long after the baby is born! And if anything, its even better for our sex life since now we are both getting decent amounts of sleep! So don't let anyone hate on you if that's what you want to do. What people do behind closed doors is their own business :)
# posted by Monya R. : 4:01 PM
First off, congratulations! Your wedding sounds like it will be fun and personally meaningful, which is awesome.
Second, thank you for defending the two-bedroom sleeping arrangement. For some people who spent 20+ years having their own bed, shifting to a co-sleeping arrangement just doesn't work. I had to face some negativity about this very topic the other day, and it's so nice to know I'm not the only one out there who values sleep over "traditional" sleeping arrangements.
# posted by : 4:22 PM
I'm another longtime reader and for what it's worth, I think you're planning an awesome wedding. So, congrats, Gwen (and Dat, and the kids)! May you always have fake birds on your bookshelf (as long as they make you happy).
# posted by jam : 5:00 PM
Oh man, that sounds like the best kind of wedding. I also like that your dining table can be the craft table and that you can practice music anytime. That sounds like love's ideal conditions to me. Yay, yay, yay for you and Dat.
# posted by Marigoldie : 8:43 PM
People who hate on you for having separate bed(rooms), are jealous because they wish they could do the same. In fact, I think that sleeping in separate rooms would help out your sex life and keep it fresh. If this is the person you're supposed to "spend the rest of your life with," why does that include sharing the same bed? People weren't meant to sleep together. It's not natural.
The two of you are starting a trend that needs to spread. Being a guy, I'm sure most married men would agree with me on this.
Congrats on the wedding!
# posted by : 9:27 PM
Congrats on the wedding. The husband and I got married where we lived far away from family. His father got nasty because he wanted X-type wedding and we weren't going to do it that way. When we essentially said "you're welcome to come, but this is what is going on" he eventually stopped boycotting and showed up.
Several of my friends have started refusing to tell people the names of their babies until they are born. Their contention is that everyone has an opinion before the baby is born, but everyone has to accept it afterwards. Perhaps an approach like that for a wedding would work... just tell people you aren't discussing the plans because you want them to be a surprise.
Regarding the bedroom... I don't have or want my own bedroom, but one of the deal breakers for me was that I had to have my own office. We have a bedroom and his and hers separate offices in the house. I could put a bed in here if I wanted to, but I have 6 bookcases, my own tv and a sound system. I don't decorate his space and he doesn't decorate mine. The bedroom is negotiated space for decor.

Gwen, I'm a new reader who has been having a ball going through your archives (just half way through). Can't wait to catch up so I can better see your journey that everyone is talking about. I love your honesty. It has inspired me. Congrats on your wedding and going your own way. After a yucky first marriage my second husband and I have "created our own space in the world" like you say and it is great. I wish you and your family all the very best!

Ooh, May. "Wantons marry in the month of May," at least according to tradition. It's a fine tradition, I think. Who doesn't want to be a little wanton now and then?
My husband and I went out for dim sum and giant flaming alcoholic drinks after our courthouse wedding, and it was a great experience. Our post-wedding feast was varied, and exotic, and we both got what we wanted, sort of like how we wanted the marriage to go :) Hope it's the same for you.

Your reasons are valid and sound awfully familiar . We eloped to Lake Charles since the wedding that I was letting my best friend :
1. Wasn't mine
2. Got so out of control the SU and I ended up at Bubba's , him with a bucket of beer and me crying.
The only...only...only regret I have 20 years later is that we didn't think to bring a throw down Kodak camera for a " wedding photo" . That is my only regret.
For what it's worth..the SU and I have seperate bedrooms, we both snore and need a nights sleep...it doesn't mean we llove each other less...in fact some of the stupider arguements dissapeared once we both got sleep and got over it.
Still slaving in 2A

Hi Gwen,
Congratulations! Both on your impending nuptials and the superb way you've (both) held your own to create the ceremony and celebration you desire and deserve.
I've been reading your site since the trailer days and just wanted to chip in with my good wishes for you and both of your families. Super cool.
# posted by Anna : 4:36 PM
While I'm taking a quick (ha!) break from reading for my thesis:
I would totally do the second bedroom thing if we had the space, but the next best thing for us is 2 single beds in one frame. The bed is as big as a king, there is a crack in the middle that acts as a border (as in, "Cross this line if you want to lose that limb"), and I don't get thrown out of bed by the tsunami of DH rolling over in the night. Win! Plus we have separate bedding, so there is no cover-hogging. I never would have guessed when we moved to Germany that my favorite part of living here would be our furnished bedroom (new mattresses), but I am *never* going back to a single mattress, even if I have to build the bed with my own 2 hands!
So rock on with your separate rooms!
(I'll be back in a month or so when I have time for another break, ha ha!)

Gwen I'm so proud of you and your Dat for being individuals, being proud of your own tastes and haveing a WONDERFUL wedding full of love and meaning for the two of you and your families. They will see the love and they will be happy, they might not tell you but they will see it and be happy inside.
I'm just so freakin happy for you.
And about the seperate bedroom part. Ppsshh. Whoever makes a fuss is secretly jealous. Or fanatically religious. It sounds HEAVENLY to me. I'd love to go back to having the fun of decorating my own room and having a full nights sleep without out mr. snorer. lol
Hugs and kisses from Pixielyn who you know has been a loyal fan since the beginning.....
I raise my glass of champagne in toast to you and Dat in congrats for starting off on the right foot.
You cant go wrong with love being your motivator.

SYRACUSE, N.Y. -- Syracuse Police are appealing to the public to find three suspects in a double shooting on the city's west side.
Police say the men, armed with handguns, went into a home at 125 Van Renssalear Street Monday evening and attempted to rob the people in the second floor apartment.
Josh Hinton, 24, was shot in the abdomen and is in critical condition.
Jacquelin Palmer, 22, was shot in the neck and shoulder area and is now in stable condition.
Police say the incident is likely drug related.
"Our investigation has revealed that we believe there may have been some type of either drug dealing or drug storage going on at that address at the upstairs apartment. And we believe the suspects came in there to rob these people and as a result of that robbery, they ended up shooting these two individuals," said Syracuse Police Sergeant Tom Connellan.
Anyone with information about the shooting is asked to contact Syracuse Police at (315) 442-5222.

A drug already approved for treatment of AIDS might one day be approved for prevention of the deadly disease in individuals at high risk.
A Food and Drug Administration advisory committee recommended Thursday that the agency approve the drug, Truvada, for pre-exposure prophylaxis, or PrEP.
The committee voted 19-3 in favor of approval for the prevention indication -- PrEP for HIV-uninfected men who have sex with men and 19-2 with one abstention for HIV-uninfected partners in couples where the other partner is infected. The committee recommended by 12-8 with two abstentions in favor of approving the drug for individuals who engage in risky sexual behavior that could result in their contracting the virus.
Truvada, manufactured by Gilead Sciences, Inc., is a once-a-day pill used in combination with other HIV drugs. The nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor does not rid the body of HIV. Instead, it prevents the virus from replicating in the body.
The FDA doesn't have to follow the recommendations of its advisory committees, but it often does.
Most of the more than 40 health care professionals, AIDS advocates and patients who addressed the committee implored its members not to recommend the drug for the new indication.
"There is no question that, if efforts on using PrEP is widespread, condom use and other means of preventing HIV infection will decrease," said Robert Elliott, a registered nurse. "At this point we simply don't know enough about how to increase adherence rates to work with the PrEP or how to counteract the risk compensation and the use of PrEP. Until then, PrEP is not and cannot be considered safe and effective for preventing HIV infections."
AIDS Activist Miki Jackson agreed. "A recommendation for the use of Truvada as PrEP is akin to issuing an engraved invitation for lawsuits," she said. "To knowingly recommend a drug as powerful as Truvada with such serious serious side effects and given to people who are perfectly healthy is frightening."
Michael Weinstein, president and founder of the AIDS Healthcare Foundation, said he was concerned that approval could lead a decrease in condom use. "Approving PrEP would be a reckless act," he said.
The FDA panel looked at safety and efficacy data from three clinical trials:

Posts Tagged 'Guava For Remedies'
For over ten years, between 1983 and 1993, the researchers of medicinal plants, made an extensive experimental research, chemistry, pharmacology and clinical properties of guava leaves, and showed that extracts of Psidium guajava leaves have a group of novel compounds, present only in this plant, known scientifically as gammapironas, belonging to the subclass of flavonoids glycosylated.
Such a set of natural compounds present in the leaves of this tree produced in the body four complementary effects very useful for the treatment of various gastrointestinal disorders, which explains its long and ancient usage to combat diarrhea, cramps and various gastrointestinal complaints:
a) antispasmodic effect due to the antagonistic action of Ca + in the contraction of intestinal and uterine muscle fiber, which explains its usefulness in eliminating diarrhea, intestinal colic and menstrual cramps in a few minutes.
b) intestinal anti-inflammatory effect through its action on the prostaglandin cascade, which explains its usefulness in reducing gastrointestinal inflammation in acute and chronic colitis.
Guava leaf was used in prehispanic medicine since ancient times to cure digestive disorders accompanied by diarrhea and abdominal pain as chronic and sits on various sources of history of the Mexican herb. It should be noted that in the sixteenth century Spanish medicine, the term dysentery, which is of Greek origin, was used exclusively to describe the intestinal disorder that manifests as episodes of bloody diarrhea. Thus, physicians applied the term "dysentery" only the most severe diarrhea, while the other, less serious but more frequent, called "chambers."
Currently, China's medicine full guava juice is used as a resource in the diet to keep within the normal range of glucose levels of diabetics. More recent studies attribute to the guava leaf extracts beneficial properties in the treatment of viral diarrhea and advantageous sedative and stress.

Sure, I'll move
My business here;
Whisper tax breaks,
In my ear.
There's a certain political irony surrounding WWE, that unrivaled producer of violence and misogyny for fun and profit. As a significant employer with 700 workers here in otherwise dowdy Connecticut, the outfit formerly known as Worldwide Wrestling Entertainment has already collected $37 million in state tax credits, with more in the pipeline.
This state largesse has added mightily to the company's profits, nearly $100 million of which funded two losing U.S. Senate campaigns by its former CEO, Linda McMahon. In her failed 2010 and 2012 bids to become a lawmaker, by the way, she claimed to oppose corporate welfare.
Other tycoons are more honest. Throughout our nation, savvy businesses snooker grants, tax credits, exemptions, forgivable loans, free buildings, subsidized training, and other perks from gullible states and cities. Those governments think that without these gifts employers would move elsewhere. Well, sometimes that's true, but mostly not. The whole business of giving tax breaks to businesses to lure them to a particular place is largely a scam.
The obvious overriding flaw in this bribery system is that if Town A gains a new business from such giveaways, Towns B, C, and D lose out. It's a zero-sum game.
Overall, the company profits while society pays. Recently the Bridgewater hedge fund wheedled a deal from Connecticut's government to pay it some $100 million to build its new corporate headquarters in Stamford, three towns down the coast from where it is now. Where else was it going to go, Bangladesh?
No, Bridgewater needs to be near Wall Street. So, OK, maybe it could move to New Jersey or New York. What we plainly need is not this ongoing bribery competition, but an interstate compact or a federal law making it illegal to subsidize employers to settle in a particular town or state. Let them settle wherever they otherwise think is best, using their own money. Continued...
Worse still, some of the biggest bribes nationally go to large corporations to relocate from the North to the South so they can replace their unionized workforce with non-union workers.
Not only do these factories collect subsidies to move, but they're also getting taxpayer dollars to make it easier for them to chisel away at their workers' security.
The cure for this abuse is federal legislation giving workers equal rights to organize anywhere in the country. It would also help if Uncle Sam could prohibit the use of public money to corrupt the process of selecting a site to locate a factory or corporate headquarters.
There's probably no way to end our basic inter-town and interstate competition for jobs and tax revenue, but it could be made a lot more beneficial. The idea would be to steer this battle for tax base into healthier channels.
Suppose, for example, that cities competed on the basis of the quality of their schools, or the efficiency of their transit, or the beauty of their parks, or the diversity of their housing? Such public services improve the well-being of citizens and employers alike.
As it is, unfortunately, today's competition is notably less elegant than that. One "family fun center" in Norwalk, my hometown, just received a grant to upgrade its laser tag equipment.
Upstate, an entrepreneur recently collected $100,000 in state funding to create new paintball battlefields. Instead of being tarred and feathered, maybe the officials who granted these giveaways should be lasered and paint-balled.

Brief Thoughts on the Spirit of Truth
By Roderick Evans
In this post, I just wanted to present some brief thoughts concerning The Spirit of Truth; that is, The Holy Spirit. The Church was established upon the outpouring and release of the Holy Ghost. On the day of Pentecost, God sent the Spirit upon the apostles and disciples who waited for Him in the upper room.And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting. And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance. (Acts 2:1-4)
The entrance of the Spirit of Truth performed two main tasks among many:
• The first is that it revealed man's sin and error. - And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment. (John 16:8)
The Holy Spirit's presence in the Church reminds men that God does have principles (or standards) that have to be followed. He reveals what the Lord requires. Jesus stated that when the Holy Ghost came, He would lead them into all truth. He would reveal Christ to the world.
• The second is that it brought man into a personal relationship with God. - And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father. (Galatians 4:6)
The Spirit of Truth brings men into understanding the nature of God. He reveals to men their relationship and position with God. His presence brings men into the same relationship as Christ before the Father.
Though there are many, many other tasks that the Holy Spirit performs, the above mentioned are foundational to walking with Christ. We know that the Spirit will also empower us for service, comfort, guide, warn, and protect the Christian. We should remember to be grateful that we were not left alone when Jesus returned to the Father.

Some of you guys know me from CL as Automan but I am here to learn as much as I can as I go in a new direction with my car. I was going to post up AFTER my build was complete to see what you guys thought. But that does not make any sense because at that point it would be too late to make changes or avoid mistakes. So as the car prepares to go into the shop within a few weeks I think now is the time to get expert opinions.
The car was is a show car which is the reason why I went so radical before with the marble paint and lambo style doors. But it worked, the car got a lot of attention, won me a room full of trophies and was even in a magazine and on TV a few times. But the VIP look is so perfect for the GS and I did not know much about building a car when I first started. So its time for a transformation.
I have been stocking up some parts for the build so first some pics of the car as it sits and then I will talk about what I have in mind.

Pikesville Crime: Bus Driver Beaten, Suspect in Dumpster
The following information was supplied by the Baltimore County Police Department. In cases were a criminal charge is noted, the information provided does not indicate a conviction.
Two men were arrested Tuesday for beating a bus driver who had reprimanded them.
Keyjuan Kenneth Branch, 19, and Johnathan Michael Watkins, 20, were charged with first-degree assault in the incident that occurred on an Maryland Transit Administration bus, according to a police report.
Between 6:55-7 p.m. Tuesday, the 43-year-old male driver was operating the bus on Milford Mill Road and Liberty Road in Milford Mill, when he reportedly asked the men to stop ringing the buzzer.
In response, when the bus was stopped, the two allegedly punched and kicked the driver in the head and face, and ran.
According to the report, police found Branch hiding in a dumpster in the 8000 block of Woodgate Court. Police captured Watkins at Peach Bottom Lane and Kenmar Road.
According to court records, Keyjuan, a resident of the 3000 block of Windsor Ave. in Baltimore, also was charged with second-degree assault, and as of Friday was being held at the Baltimore County Detention Center.
Watkins, a resident of the 8500 block of Glen Mihael Lane in Randallstown, also was charged with second-degree assault and is at the detention center, according to court records.

They seem kind of old for such pranks. And the punks ran, hid in a dumpster. Kind of poetic isn't it?

Old? 19 and 20? When you name your kid "Keyjuan" the disrespect for authority just comes with the territory.
8:29 am on Monday, August 20, 2012
No George, slow down. What they did was more of a juvenile prank carried out on a dare. At least that is my take. They are kind of old for that kind of behavior as adults. And they ran. And they hid in a dumpster. No need to disparage the race of the suspects. Try looking at the activity, not the race.

nice neighborhood in the 60's and 70's...an MTA bus driver represents authority...it's like kicking an officer of the law....he's king of that bus!...the youth in general seems grow up much slower than in the 60's and 70's,,,I'll bet when they made to the dumpster, they just knew they got away with it...what a rush! huh?...not!!!

Basketball starts early this year
December 03, 2009
Basketball season is upon us, and it's arrived earlier than normal in Oklahoma. Oh, sure, the games start around the same time every year, the NBA tipping off in late October, the colleges in mid-November. But really, no one in our fair state usually pays roundball much attention until early January.... Read More

Predictions for the New Year
December 31, 2008
Just a quick post to say best wishes to everyone in 2009.
My bold prediction for 2009 — made earlier this week on The Press Row — is that the Thunder are going to make a significant off-season move. Not sure who it will be, but I believe that either by trade or by free-agent acquisition, the franchise is... Read More
Cowboys make quite a statement
December 29, 2008
Let's take a little trip back in time. It's not a long journey. Just a few months.

FERNDALE Demand for the homemade ice cream churned out at Treat Dreams, 22967 Woodward Ave., keeps growing and its time for the store to do the same.
After concocting more than 500 flavors since opening 2 ½ years ago, owner Scott Moloney knows the sweet taste of success. The cold reality means he needs to expand beyond his 1,920-square-foot shop into the space next door where Pak-Mail was located.
The 45-year-old Birmingham resident has enjoyed positive word of mouth for his flagship flavor salted caramel, vegan line, and combinations never attempted before like chicken and waffles.
Hey, I dont have a culinary background so Ive never been told you cant do this or that, he said. My first rule is there are no rules.
His daring experimentation has helped land Treat Dreams on the menus of 10 restaurants and venture into the food truck frontier but space constraints are holding him back.
I couldnt add a store or a food truck until I figured out what to do about production, he said.
A former banker, Moloney now goes by the title chief dreamologist. He has been saving money for a $50,000 expansion, which will double the size of the kitchen and triple both the dining area and walk-in freezer.
However, he hasnt gotten there yet. To raise the final $15,000, Moloney has turned to indiegogo, an online crowdfunding platform where anyone can pitch a plan to the world and collect contributions.
With a couple weeks to go on his fund-raising campaign, the Treat Dreams Super-exciting Expansion Project! is nearing a third of Moloneys goal. Unlike Kickstarter, he can keep the pledges even if he doesnt reach $15,000 by his Feb. 14 deadline.
If I have to, I can wait to put in the giant walk-in freezer, Moloney said, adding that his big sales season starts in April and he can save in earnest again.
Construction is set to begin Feb. 18 and the store will be closed for three weeks. Treat Dreams will reopen on March 15.
With the larger restaurant, Moloney will expand on-site ice cream making events for kids and the Treat Dreams After Dark ice cream parties for adults.
In the meantime, he is tempting patrons and anyone who wants to help a local business make it to the next level with special perks for pledges to his indiegogo effort. Contribution levels start at $2 with unique rewards and experiences. One of the popular perks is 6 months of goodness a six-month subscription to the pint of the club for a donation of $35.
