In the last few weeks much of the super has left the building
this is the result of an affliction that overcomes the sick
as they try to regain balance after losing grip 'cause the words that they thought so hip
have been sent to the trash.
so much has been stripped that you can not find any of the 04-8 great est stuff

It got deleted due to lack of interest.

Nobody ever goes to Bishop.

There's nothing there except Bishop ......

Never really got into the inner workings of the law of the land but just read the suggestions thread. It is a bummer when one gets the boot only to have all the post go along to the grave. Hope to meet you out there Chief....looks like we're moving out there.

Buy a mule or you will never be accepted!

Stock up the fridge before and hunker down for mule daze.

By the way, how is that BBQ place on north main? Stopped in after the facelift and it was packed, so I walked out.

Conditions are horrible, the climbing scene is over-crowded and work is tricky - no wonder it got deleted...

Elvin has not left the building.
But his daughter Selina has, sadly.

As for the town, a river runs through it, and a highway.

Here are some pics they won't put in the boosters' brochures.

Horses in the middle of town?They have no malls, and do they even have a Walmart?Fenced front yards, a vicious dog...this ain't a drive-by, Muttso!Weeds growing in vacant lots, just like in parts of NYC and Chi-town.Dark days ahead for the Bishoprics.Kids gather at the municipal "plunge" for an afternoon swim.The fishing at the municipal "plunge" is awfully good, though, one has to admit.What do the kids have to look forward to?
Twelve years of schoolin' and there ain't even a full day shift anywhere in the county!
