A Texas state Capitol employee who police said wanted to go in the building Friday before a rally by presidential candidate Barack Obama threw a bowl of egg salad at a U.S. Secret Service agent who denied her access, according to an arrest affidavit.

Tracy Firsching, 47, is charged with assault on a peace officer, a third-degree felony for which she faces up to 10 years in prison.

According to the affidavit, Firsching started to go around police barriers when she was stopped by Secret Service agent Brian Sanders, who told her that she could not go in the secured area without an escort.

The affidavit said Firsching told Sanders that, “You’re going to have to arrest me” and attempted to go past him. Sanders grabbed her by the arm to turn her around when she threw a plastic bowl of egg salad at him and struck him in the face with the bowl, the affidavit said.

According to the affidavit, Sanders received a scratch that was “red and visible from several feet away” during the incident.

...fell in love the first time I heard Old Richmond Prison and the hair on the back of my neck stood up...

dittos with The Fields Have Turned Brown, Who Will Sing For Me, Man of Constant Sorrow, Rank Stranger, Harbor of Love, Lonesome River and just about everything else the Stanleys ever recored.

I read a review of Dr. R's singing which described a voice like "whiskey poured over a buzz saw". His and Dylan's voices just get more expressive and more idiosyncratic as they get older...high and lonesome just like God intended.

They don't make 'em like they used to...

It's almost March - can festival season be far behind?

“It’s almost March - can festival season be far behind?”

When I was going to seminary in Kentucky I was seeing his band 3 or 4 times a year at least. I was definitely spoiled, plus there are some great bands in Ky who are just copying the Stanley style, some really well.

Sammy Adkins is another great band, he of course played for Ralph in the 80’s. I can’t get enough of that Stanley style, he really perfected that lonesome sound in my opinion.

Ya gotta love Dems. They don’t use guns, but they DO use potato salad.

[Larry Lucido]

Did they pick up the shell casings?

[MinuteGal]

Aw, those Secret Service guys just can't take a yolk.

[Larry Lucido]

My theory is there had to be a second salad shooter, probably standing on the nearby greasy roll. Otherwise that was one magic yolk!

[MinuteGal]

Guilty!

Secret Service policy:

“DON’T FIRE UNTIL YOU SEE THE WHITES OF HER EGGS!”

[Larry Lucido]

"This is outrageous. It's clear that this woman was ovulating. Besides, the Secret Service agent was a bad breaker-upper. He's lucky she didn't use a salad fork! This prosecution is egregious and preposterous!"

[Cagey]

GEORGE: So, I’m thinking, as she’s saying this, I’m thinking: great, the relationship’s over. But the egg salad’s on the way. So now I have a decision - do I walk or o I eat?

JERRY: Hmmm? You ate.

GEORGE: We sat there for twenty minutes, chewing, staring at each other in a defunct relationship.

JERRY: Someone says, “Get out of my life!” and that doesn’t affect your appetite?

GEORGE: Have you ever had their egg salad?

JERRY: It is unbelievable.

[Mr. Brightside]

George: “But you had to throw the BIG salad.”

Someone going to see a presidential candidate with “a bowl of egg salad”

The unanswered question: What was the open bowl of egg salad for? If this was bill clinton I wouldn’t be asking.

I think everyone knows the answer they just don’t want to share it....

Game on Larry started it !

Lettuce begin !

“What was the open bowl of egg salad for?”

And was there paprika in it? That can damage the eyes.

Maybe it is a cult?

WINNER! (so far) post 90: My theory is there had to be a second salad shooter, probably standing on the nearby greasy roll. Otherwise that was one magic yolk!



One Question yet be-devils the matter: would egg salad buyback programs in the inner cities stop hardboiled criminals?
