Here's a more recent pic with bent showing off his new landfill in Little Rock.

I think he's doing some ill-concieved combination of tai-bo and sweatin' to the oldies.

loddy, I think you have provided proof of "Bent's" long lost legacy. It is just beneath his extended left arm. It is a mud hole.

[lodwick]

;-) That's funny - and true. God how did we ever elect that A-hole, TWICE? Good grief, and he will not die, or just go the freak-away or get Alzheimers, or anything else terminal that we know of.

I'll stop now before a rant erupts like a bad zit on FR's face.

It's not sausage news, but I thought you would be interested anyway:

Houston - An 18-wheeler crashed Tuesday morning, crushing its cargo of beer and spilling it onto the street.
Police said that it appeared as if the truck driver took the turn too fast, causing him to overturn.
No injuries were reported.

Road crews spent several hours cleaning up the spilled beer.

local news:

Jerel Ontree Johnson shot and killed Patrick Wesley Muse after Muse refused to surrender his gold chain in a New Year's Day robbery attempt, three witnesses testified Monday.

Johnson, who turns 19 today, is on trial for capital murder in Waco's 54th State District Court. He is charged with killing Muse in front of three other men after Muse gave Johnson a ride to an apartment complex on Calumet Avenue.

Russ Hunt Jr., who is representing Johnson with his father, Russ Hunt Sr., told jurors in his opening that it was Muse who pulled the gun on Johnson because Muse wanted to steal the rest of Johnson's marijuana that they had been smoking on the way to the Estella Maxey Apartments.

However, Bronshay Smith, Lamar Blanco and Ben Scott Jr., who were riding with Muse when they decided to pick up Johnson at the South Terrace Apartments and give him a ride, all testified that it was Johnson who pulled a .22-caliber revolver and demanded the gold chain around Muse's neck and the contents of his pockets before he got out of Muse's van.

Muse refused to be robbed inside his own van, his three friends said, and rushed toward Johnson in the back of the van. Muse was shot in the chest during the struggle over the gun, the men said.

Blanco testified that Johnson then snatched the chain from Muse's neck and rifled his pockets and took some prescription anti-anxiety pills known as Xanax. He then turned to the three in the van, told them they didn't see anything and ran away, Smith and Blanco said.

In The Early Days of Lemhi County, July 25, 2002, issue of The Recorder Herald.

50 Years Ago - 1952
* After being spotted from the air Friday morning, the wreckage of a red Piper Cub Cruiser was reached by a ground party in the afternoon and the bodies of Smith Stoddard, 37, and Bill Smothers, 23, were found, after an intensive aerial and ground search of four days.
* The M-Men and the Gleaner Girls of the L.D.S. 2nd ward enjoyed a weiner roast, Tueday evening at Cougar Point.

60 Years Ago - 1942
* Eliot Dubois, fair-haired twenty-year old Yale senior, today can lay claim to the title as the first white man to shoot dangerous rapids from March creek down the turbulent Middlefork of the Salmon river. The death-defying trip was made by the 150-pound youth because he feared the treacherous Salmon river had taken the life of his closest friend.
* Thirty men have been called from Lemhi county under the selective service to join the armed forces.
* The Havemann Hardware soft ball team won two games in a row from the Elk's team.

70 Years Ago - 1932
* Governor Ross has announced he will appoint 3,000 volunteer wardens to help guard Idaho forests against threatened attempts at incendiarism. The governor announced his plans after he received a clipping from a Michigan newspaper in which a group of unemployed men, in an interview before they boarded a freight train, said they were on their way to fight forest fires in Idaho and added that there would be plenty of fires after they reached their destination. The special wardens will be given power to arrest any person caught setting fires. But they will have to serve without pay.

80 Years Ago - 1922
* Albert R. Nichols of the Allen & Nichols garage in Salmon was apprised last Sunday of the accidental shooting of his mother at the old home near Nicholia. A car had stopped and the mother had gone out to it when a number of children, who had been in the car, handling a high power gun, discharged the weapon lying in the bottom of the car. The bullet punctured the car door and lodged in the shoulder of the lady, seriously injuring her.

* Mrs. Irwin and small daughter left Tuesday for their home at Pipe Stone springs, spending the last two months at their ranch near Leadore.

90 Years Ago - 1912
* The Iron creek people gave a dance Saturday night, the proceeds of which are to go toward building a new school. There was a good crowd and everybody had a most enjoyable time.
* Mr. and Mrs. Burt McNab came up from Salmon to help Guy Edwards put up his hay.
* Mrs. O. C. Jones, who suffered a broken limb on her ranch about six weeks ago is still confined to her house, on River street, and is unable to walk.
* Cap. Harrry Guleke is fitting up a boat for a trip down to Horse creek, whither he will pilot a man going to prospect in that country for the season.

100 years Ago - 1902
* The school house at Fort Lemhi was destroyed by fire on last Tuesday night, July 8th. The building was almost new and was well constructed and comfortable. The furniture and books were also burned. The origin of the fire is a mystery as all the windows were nailed down and the door locked, when school was closed, and it is not known that anyone had been in the building since the school election which took place over a month ago. The fire started on the insidde of the structure and when discovered about 2 o'clock had not yet reached the outside and the windows were all down and none of them were broken. This is a serious loss to the district.

110 Years Ago
* The average cayuse of this section, is so filled with vinegar and viturperation, that kindness proves of no avail to his wild and wooly nature. On Friday we witnessed the playful antics of one which have a pack lashed to his back, and which kicked, bucked, and concluded by turning completely over and crushing the pack.
* E. H. Jeanjaquet cleaned up eight dollars from about six wheelbarrow loads of dirt taken from beneath Martinelly's sidewalk, one day last week. Who says that Salmon City is not paved with gold?
* The subscription price of The Recorder has been reduced to $3 per year. Parties who have paid $4 in advance will be credited with 15 months subscription.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Not quite as exciting as some of the previous ones...yet we find some things never change--if we take a look at 80 Years Ago---guns and children need to be closely watched!

The paper subscription rate is interesting....today, I believe it is $19 a year....the paper is issued weekly.

;-) When was the last time you saw, or used, viturperation?

Thanks for the news - good stuff.
