Thank you for your interesting additions.

The other day there was an interesting story about *SGT Reckless*...the decorated horse from the Korean War:

I didn't think this story deserved a thread of its own,, so am sticking it here b/c Quartzite is the focus of the news. I wonder if the ghost camels of Hi Jolly will be blamed? ;D ‘State Of Emergency’ In Quartzite

Quartzsite Police Chief Jeff Gilbert has asked the town council to declare a “state of emergency” due to all of the publicity the town has received over the arrest of a reporter at an open meeting in June.

The town council voted 5-0 in favor of the action; Mayor Ed Foster did not attend the emergency meeting Sunday afternoon. Gilbert reportedly said the action was needed because Jennifer Jones was “inciting riots” after videos of her arrest at the meeting sprung up across the Internet. It was not immediately clear what outside assistance, if any, Gilbert seeks to enforce the state of emergency. Check back for further updates.
