3 game ban for spitting. I had lunch with a guy last week who spit so much when he talked he should get the death penalty.

Dentist Pleads Guilty in Naked Cycle Ride
Fri Jul 30, 4:05 PM ET
NANTICOKE, Pa. - A helmet would be nice, but police here said clothes would be a good start when riding a motorcycle.
A local dentist pleaded guilty to a summary charge of disorderly conduct for driving a motorcycle with a naked woman on the back. The woman faces more serious charges.
Dr. Joseph P. Gronka, 39, of Scott Township, was pulled over June 12 when police noticed Lisa Drozdowski, 39, of Nanticoke, riding naked on the back of his motorcycle. Since then, Gronka has paid court costs and fines totaling $277.50.
Gronka declined comment.
Police said Drozdowski was belligerent when she was taken into custody and threw a small pipe into her cell toilet, then kicked an officer who tried to prevent her from flushing the toilet. She was charged with aggravated assault, simple assault, tampering with evidence, resisting arrest and open lewdness.
One question- where was the pipe?
That doc got his Gronka's in a vice.
Last and least-
