Question: Would you like to take a run at that chocolate slip-and-slide, if you could?

In January 2006, 4th District Judge Thomas Neville sentenced Lehosit to 120 days in jail and five years of probation. Neville said he was imposing a harsh sentence because it was justified by Lehosit’s four DUIs.
120 days in jail for a 4th dui is not harsh. jeez! this guy needs treatment.

Two headlines caught my eye - 1) WAC official suspended for bad call in BSU/SJS game (a call that favored BSU while the score was still close near the end of the 2nd quarter) - 2) WAC hires PR firm to help BSU’s chances at a BCS game.
Here is a bit of advice BSU - quit cheating and play better out of conference competition if you want to be in the conversation with the big boys. BTW - with a win over Stanford this weekend Oregon will wave bye bye as they go past you in the polls. While BSU’s BCS ranking has been inflated with each Oregon win - the early season win cannot overcome UO’s strength of schedule – the lines have intersected. HA HA - Poinsettia bowl here you come…

He’s had treatment Phaedrus. Lots of well funded lengthy treatment in which he assured Judge Neville that this is behind him. But I have seen much evidence to the contrary. I like Jason, he’s smart but he’s gotta get the monkey off his back before he physically hurts an innocent. It wouldn’t have been difficult to find him in violation of his probation but I am curious as to the circumstances of his arrest. Political operatives, especially arrogant ones, seem to get pretty juiced around election time. He was very lucky to have Little throw him a bone, but I doubt anyone will touch him after this.

Bent >> ….Hey, Hmoffsuite, what value would you put on that 1965 vw van in mint condition?
That one, Bent, just from the photo, about 25 thou. Much higher money for the VW 23 window model. Those can go for well over 50 grand. VW’s can do very well. My wife got into it a couple of weeks ago and bot a ‘74 Thing and a ‘55 Beetle with semaphores. Wife figures money isn’t worth anything in the bank and if she can spin a couple of cars, she might be able to afford her new countertops. :~) We are buying cars now that we will sell during the auction season here in January. Barrett-Jackson, etc etc.
