HOUSTON, Texas -- Joel Swift was taken into police custody last night by officers responding to a disturbance call at Swifty's Lesbian Lounge.

According to an anonymous source at the department, detectives questioned Swift for two hours about the events at the Lounge, as well as a seemingly unrelated case concerning slaughtered 'Peeps'. Police have been working the Peeps case for years, but until Swift's arrest tonight, the trail was thought to have gone cold.

Swift was suddenly released after two hours of interrogation, although police chief Clarence Bradford (search) offered only the cryptic comment "The Department no longer considers it in the public interest to further detain Mr. Swift." Accordingly, no charges are expected to be filed.

Calls to Swift's attorney were not immediately returned.

I thought it apropos that I begin the re-launch of the Joelshead site with the picture that started it all (That is, it initiated starting a new job, moving to a new city, building of a new web site, and partaking in one of the longest and most elaborate running gags of which I've been a part).

If you're one of the original contributors--and would like to post your own creations--just drop me a line (take the word "head", tack on an @ symbol, and add joelshead.com) and I'll fix you up real nice-like.
