Deridder reminds me in about
Deridder reminds me of when, in about 1988, I co-owned a weekly newspaper in Ocean Beach/San Diego. I was living with a girlfriend and I moved out and found a room in an apartment rented by another guy. He just let me move in. I paid him cash. The manager knew me and didn't object but I wasn't on the rental agreement. For three months, I dutifully paid my rent to my roommate.
One day, I came home and the locks had been changed.
The manager was nice enough to let me in and retrieve my belongings. That night I was back living with my ex-girlfriend.
The owners of the apartment building couldn't find the original tenant so they sued me (I wasn't hard to find being a local publisher). I was pretty irritated and told them so. Still, I had to drive downtown and go to court. I was delighted when the judge threw out their case agreeing with my point: They had no contract with me. My contract was with their tenant and I paid him. No receipts required.

Man, the police blotter just
Man, the police blotter just keeps getting longer and longer; most definitely not the Batavia I grew up in.
Most days we have no blotter
Most days we have no blotter items. When we do, it's usually much shorter. Yesterday's was long given random chance, two batches of releases from BPD over the weekend, and a three-day weekend (we didn't post blotter on Monday as we normally would). One day of blotter is hardly indictive of anything.
