Show Notes for Thursday October 25, 2018

THIS WEEK'S DEAR JOHN LETTER!
(COMMENTS ARE WELCOME)

Dear John,


My wife and I like to go to costume contests... she's pretty creative and we have won several times. This year I think her idea is in bad taste and I don't want to play along. She is getting mad at me for not wanting to play the part. Not sure if you want to read this part on the radio, but she wants to dress as Christine Blasey Ford and have me dress as Judge Brett Kavanaugh. My “costume” consists of a judges robe, a gavel and one of those helmets with beer cans in it... her costume is not really even a costume... she doesn't even look like Christine Blasey Ford... so I think in addition to it being in poor taste... I don't think people would even know who she's supposed to be... and half the people will hate my outfit. Do you have any better ideas while I still have time to maybe talk her out of this?

A central Illinois physician who pleaded guilty last year to charges of illegally dispensing opioids and other prescription medications in exchange for money or sex has been sentenced to twelve years in federal prison. The U.S. Attorney’s office in Chicago says in a news release that Dr. Constantino Perales of the LaSalle County community of Peru was sentenced Tuesday by U.S. District Judge Amy St. Eve. According to the release, the 67-year-old Perales admitted he had illegally prescribed oxycodone and Xanax to a patient whom he knew would sell the pills on the black market and then shared the profits with him. Parales also admitted he illegally dispensed opioids and other controlled substances to three patients he knew were addicted to the drugs in exchange for sex.(https://goo.gl/C5KAPd)

A Wyoming woman running for city council is defending her panty-selling alter ego, confirming to 2News that she will remain in the race. Deborah Reno of Evanston, Wyoming called 2News' reporting on Friday explaining her decision to run and why she has another identity known as “Mystee Crockett.” She said, “My alter ego is hot and sexy in a way that I never get to be in real life. My husband loves my alter ego, although she only comes out when he and I are out of town. She doesn't break laws, but she is gorgeous. She's never gotten into trouble, but she does get into exciting adventures with my husband.” Reno said she has sold used panties and “dirty gym shorts” online for the past year. She’s also seen strip-teasing in videos. A handful of community members raised concerns to other elected officials following the discovery of what Reno thought was her secret identity. The candidate said she no longer sells used underwear and has since deleted all her accounts, saying “Mystee is dead.” (https://goo.gl/gB8tJA)
