Absorbent And Yellow And Porous Is He


I take no pleasure in chronicling the misdeeds of Laredo's most dumbest for our wildly popular series, Menso Not Mensa, but there's just too much material for this blogger to ignore.

Today's lucky designee is Eric Compean, an enterprising stereo thief with a penchant for wearing cartoon-themed pajamas in public.  While we're on the subject, let me take this opportunity to say how much I detest when people wear pajama pants in public.  I'm a big advocate of dressing down, but when your wardrobe consists of sleepwear, you've shed any ounce of pride or dignity for yourself.  It calls into question your sense of social norms, not to mention hygiene.

But enough about me -- let's talk about Mr. Bikini Bottom for a moment.  How can you be an effective thief if you're going to go around wearing things that people can easily identify?  'Yes officer, I saw the person running away from the scene and he was wearing bright yellow pants, brown Ugg boots, a red satin shirt with fringed sleeves, and some sort of shark fin on his head.'  I would think that one of the requirements to be a thief would be to maintain a low profile.

The Pro8news story mentions a suspect breaking a police vehicle window.  It doesn't state that Compean was responsible for that act of destruction but it helps add to this post, because when you're already in trouble with the law for alleged robbery, it doesn't help your case by also breaking public property, especially that of the cops.  The level of Menso-ness here is through the roof.  This is one instance where there's no reason to celebrate in Laredo.

Not even Michael Jackson could make wearing pajamas in public work when he showed up to court in them.

No mention of SpongeBob's sidekick, Patrick! Did he get away or was it Squidward that was the accomplice?

Plankton probably ratted him out.

Key Rose,
You must be a true Mexican if you drink the Propaganda 8 News Kool Aid and then truly believe that repeating their mis-edited and often very inaccurate propaganda and police blotter actually means you qualify as a real/legitimate news or media outlet. You really do sound like an ignorant Mexican with limited knowledge of the U.S. Constitution.
Touche, but of course your defense would probably be to try to differ to the first amendment freedom of speech/ or press for your quasi article of so called journalism.
Unfortunately, your low scoring, under performing Laredo education and justice system didn't seem to help you understand the other rights that go with being in the U.S.
Principally, the presumption of innocence shall not be infringed even by the press or so called media such as yourself. To do so in Texas can be a cause for action for defamation and libel.
May I suggest that you really listen to the news reports, which you report and rely upon since you also readily and so obviously admit to being aware of other suspects. Do you know who was actually wearing Pajamas?
Seems to me that your just another wolf for the Laredo Elitist propaganda machine in sheepskin panties that must be related to some of the corrupt pigs at Laredo Police like Agustin Dovalina,III, whom plead guilty to bribery charges in federal court after being Chief of Police for over 20 years.

Now that there is a real news story with some funk your wannabe media nostrils might find familiar or could get into thats worth reporting to outsiders.
Its a funky smell familiar to those people that try to hard to make nice with the powers that be in a city like Laredo.
Your sounding less like a reliable independent news outlet and more like a U.P.S commercial, by the day.
So I beg the question, LA Sanbe, in selling out to the Propagandist, What has being brown nosed really done for you?
