There is plenty of powder around here, but it ain't THAT kind of powder. Six and half feet of powder since Christmas Day. Ho, Ho, Ho!

This article deserves a day shift bump.

For all those who have had to deal with these creeps or had to deal with unknown theivery.

I use to go grocery shopping in town (been here 14yrs.) and shop at 2:00 in the morning usaully after being out on a road trip and going home since KV would be up and in his wheelchair and knowing he would be to worn out the next day. Or if I had been working hard and tired not in the mood to socialize with the day people which usaully includes kids crying and running into folks who want to chit chat with my undivided attention.

Well no more will I shop at night as the nuts come out and I just get this creepy feeling. Give me the chit chatters and crying babies anytime over tweakers.

...said Pat Crank, Wyoming's attorney general...

Can you believe this guy's name?

He expects to help when he is named after the problem... LOL

Don't remind him. He gets....cranky when you bring it up.

(Okay. I'll shut up now.)

You would pipe up with a crack like that...
