Newsflash! Breaking news!

The Yokel has received word from a source close to the County Council that an announcement is coming later today.

What announcement?  Billy, Kirby and Tony are all expected to step down from their council member positions effective immediately.

Our source quotes the 3 members as saying they’ve had an epiphany that it is better for the county if they step down.

Wow! Never thought they had that much introspection!
Wow! Never thought they had that much introspection!

We’re about to turn 1: a tantrum worthy of a toddler is brewing!

It is unbelievable to your Yokel gals the lengths to which some of these people will go to in defending Blaine Young. A look at the paper today reveals an LTE, short and sweet. It’s so short it would have fit in one little block quote. Some lady admonishing the FNP for being mean.

Can we just ask? Why is nothing ever their fault? Kirby can make an ass of himself on a public forum, and it’s other people’s problem for noticing. Blaine allegedly can’t keep his pants zipped anywhere for any reason at a time period lasting for decades, and WE are the ones embarrassing his family (!!!!) according to the unwavering logical fallacy that is the hallmark of the County Council Watch page. Oh, and by-the-by, if you aren’t following the County Council Watch Watch, you should be! It will save you having to peek at the condition of that festering boil on the butt of the county.

And guess what, dear “Area Woman” of the Watch Watch! We don’t even have to be the voyeurs to your exhibitionist friend group. There is an entire network of concerned citizens who just occasionally lets us know when something interesting is going on. It’s just that simple. Probably they let everyone and their mother know about the same stuff, but the Baltimore Sun is staffed and paid to call everyone for comment. We’re just leading you to the same public information you could find any old time, but the internet made it faster. Like the White Pages. Remember when you had to look in a book? Well, no longer. Same with court records, Woman.

When we started this group one of our goals was to poke fun at the local mess so that maybe more people would be willing to pay attention to local politics. It’s absolutely not our fault if your weirdo sideshow makes the best scandals. Too bad that “Mexican” food for dinner is too boring to capture anyone’s imagination. Multiple sex scandals (even more than one with hookers), repeatedly doing stuff so dumb that the A.P. runs stories about how dumb you are, or the “je ne sais quoi” Billy contributes to the Honey Boo Boo vibe of Frederick county are just plain fascinating.

Get ahold of yourself, Woman!
Get ahold of yourself, Woman!

This matter of going after people’s kids. No one is going after kids, except for Area Woman trying to suggest it would be fine to persecute ours. We are absolutely in agreement with Blaine’s deleted Facebook apology (the one the Baltimore Sun screen capped and distributed like common stalkers, hahah!): his family and romantic partner(s?) need space. However, if a john’s kids feel ashamed by his gross behavior, that’s a john’s fault and he should have thought about that before breaking the law. It seems like there have been ample opportunities to learn this lesson:

Keep your crazy tucked in, people. And your other stuff, too, while you’re at it.

La la loopsy Xenu’s lawyer made an oopsie!

Loyal readers are aware that Xenu’s lawyer’s have filed a lawsuit against the entire county. That’s right folks the whole county!

Prepare to pay up!
Prepare to pay up!

Well, it appears that maybe a mistake was made because on the 25th they filed another suit and made sure that this time they spelled out The Frederick County Council.

So who exactly is doing Xenu’s lawyering?

Durp!

In the midst of scandal, county business marches on….minus one!

Blaine's naughty time has been taking too much of our time!
Blaine’s naughty time has been taking too much of our time!

Hey there Yokels! Blaine’s scandal has rightly taken much of our time these past few days. We did want to report on the short 26 minute meeting that took place this past Tuesday. “26 minutes,” we hear you declare! Well, there’s a reason for that. Old Billy boy was no where to be found. Maybe he was over in Anne Arundel County just begging for Blaine’s case to be dropped. Who knows?

We start off harmless enough. Kirby votes against the budget transfers because no way , no how is the Department of Aging allowed anymore money out of him! The only business of the evening is a public hearing on the impact fees. Only four speakers, so it went by quickly enough.

Without Billy, Council member comments also went off without a hitch! Kirby informs us that the Governor is on board with his idea of leased back schools. I wonder if the Governor has the same impression of that conversation. Then Jerry reminds us what happens when schools are built on the cheap. But hey, what does Kirby care about 50 years down the road? Chemlik chooses to keep his trap shut and we’re done.

I guess what we’ve learned from tonight is that if we want a short, concise meeting we need to make sure Billy is somewhere else.

Your Yokel Blaine Update!

Wowza! These past couple of days have been busy, busy, busy. We here at the Yokel keep asking one another, “Can you believe it?” To which the reply is always, “Well, yeah.” Let’s catch up.

After last night’s revelation that Blaine was charged with 4 counts of prostitution, he posts this on Facebook:

12873411_10153491452026305_2081210358_o
This was quickly removed, we imagine under his lawyer’s advice.
Can't pin this one on the demons, gotta take responsibility Blaine!
Can’t pin this one on the demons, gotta take responsibility Blaine!

Later in the day the Baltimore Sun releases the charging documents. And never a more sordid tale have we read. So it appears that Blaine went on a website called back page and clicked on the naughty adult section. There he was intrigued by an ad that promised:

Guaranteed fun, freaky & fetish friendly with all services covered.

Mr. Young then drove the hour or so out to a hotel in Linthicum, paid his $60 (!) and  proceeded to undress. Then the awful, albeit obvious to just about anyone else, truth was revealed to him. He was not in a “fetish friendly’ environment. He was in the middle of a sting operation. And holy Dateline episode, of course we all saw this coming. If you want to read more choose from any of these available stories:

At least this story didn't read: "County Executive Blaine Young...."
At least this story didn’t read: “County Executive Blaine Young….”

Soon we’ll go back and see what Blaine had to say about all that Black Book hullabaloo. It doesn’t seem to be the bunch of nonsense he once claimed it to be.
