Clearwater Man Arrested After Throwing Pizza At 65-Year-Old Man

Don't let a verbal argument escalate to THIS!

Forty-four-year-old Kyle Barthelmes of Clearwater was having a heated discussion with a woman. Apparently, Barthelmes had taken some Xanax and was also drinking alcohol. The woman wanted him to lower his voice. The argument got louder and that's when a third party stepped in to deescalate the situation and stick up for the woman.

The incident took place at a residence in Pinellas County. Barthelmes kept arguing and then opened his freezer and threw some items from the freezer. Then he threw a slice of pizza at a 65-year-old man. The man was struck in the chest.

Because the victim was 65 years old, Barthelmes was charged with two felony counts of battery.

This isn't Barthelmes first experience with law enforcement. In July, he was charged with a similar crime.

He may also end up qualifying as one of MJ's Morons in the News.

When you start your day before the sun is up in the five o’clock hour, it always helps to have some coffee to get you going. MJ is a very strange bird in that he doesn’t need coffee to start his day. He’s a ball of chatty energy on his own. But I need both tea and coffee, and Fester has a splash of coffee with his 15 packets of sugar and 12 ounces of cream, and Froggy drinks coffee and sometimes energy drinks.

I, personally, enjoy drinking coffee on the weekends because that’s when I drink it out of a mug (at work, it’s out of a Styrofoam cup). Drinking coffee in a mug is a nice, relaxing ritual.

Froggy came up with his list of his favorite coffee mugs. Here are the “mug” shots and what he had to say about each.

The first mug is one I love because it has every single bird on it that has a name that sounds dirty, including the tufted titmouse, which is my favorite bird.

The second mug is one of my favorites because it was the first mug given to me by my kids on my first Father's Day.

The News Channel 8 mug means a lot because it was given to me live on the news and live on-air on the MJ Morning Show by the news anchor Avery Cotten, who is class personified. I applied to win a mug online and kept losing so they brought one to me.

And finally, my Rodfather mug made the list because it was given to me by Roxanne on mÿ birthday, supposedly because I love fishing and Godfather movies. And for some reason the coffee always tastes better in this mug.
