I grew up in Grand Junction, Colorado, which has a real crappy newspaper. However, they do have some interesting news to report over there. Here is an article my Ma sent me about a recent event in GJ;

Female Transient Allegedly Wrestles Naked With Dog

A female transient was arrested Tuesday for wrestling naked with a Grand Junction resident’s dog.

Katherine Earle, 40, jumped over an acquaintance’s four-foot fence at 603 N. Sixth St. just before midnight Tuesday and took off her clothes to start wrestling with the male dog, according to the arrest affidavit.

Earle woke up the occupants of the home, who called the police, according to the affidavit.

When the police arrived, Earle told them she was having sex with the dog and that she does it all the time, according to the affidavit.

The affidavit said Earle was very intoxicated.

Earle had a warrant for her arrest and was booked into the Mesa County Jail to serve a 25-day sentence, according to the affidavit.

Six Starr, the dog’s owner, said she has known Earle for two years, but in the past six months Earle has started acting strangely. Starr said Earle is friendly with the dog, but this is the first time she has been caught wrestling naked with it.

“What took place last night, I don’t even want to guess,” Starr said.

The dog, named Blue, a Labrador retriever and blue heeler mix, appeared undisturbed by the events. During the interview, he was chewing on Earle’s sock, a souvenir from the tryst.
