Ace of Spades™ Lifestyle - Blue Collar Sassy!

Well, it would be blue collar, if he had been wearing a shirt.

Percy Honnibal aquitted of misdemeanor public indecency charge, so charged for working at a job site while, you know, nekkid.

He's a carpenter. That seems, dangerous or something. At least to me.

He's had a couple of run-ins before (shocking!).

"I wanted to go to trial to prove that the charge could not stick, that it was an over-reaction," said the 51-year-old building contractor. "You don't expect to all of a sudden see somebody in the nude, but there was never a threat, never anyone in danger."

Except for Percy himself, whenever the nail gun was around.

I'm reminded of the words of Dirty Harry Callahan, to the SF Police Chief and DA. "When I see a naked man with a kitchen knife chasing a woman down an alley, I figure he's not out collecting for the Red Cross".

But if you see a naked man in Oakland with a circular saw, he might be building some bookcases.

It's Oakland. You don't know.
