A graduating teen’s father, Henry Walker, shouted: “You did it, baby.” That was enough to have a warrant issued for his arrest. The Mississippi school had asked parents, friends and family to hold their applause until the end. But Walker was so overjoyed that he shouted this cheer out and waved a towel. The crowd was far from angry at him, as his comment drew laughs from the crowd. That was all there was to it. There was no interference with the graduation ceremony, just a proud father who couldn’t contain his pride in his daughter. The Mississippi family was shortly thereafter kicked out of the graduation ceremony. But as surprising as that reaction was, they were even more floored when they were charged with disturbing the peace. Superintendent Jay Foster defended the police state response, saying that he had warned audience members to hold their cheers until all names had been called. Local WREG-TV reports that Ursula Miller admitted that she too had called out the first name of her niece, Lanarcia Walker during the graduate’s walk across the stage at Senatobia High School. For that “crime” she is now being charged too. About a week after the ceremony, the family was informed that there is a warrant out for each of their arrests. Superintendent Jay Foster filed disturbing the peace charges against all of them. “It’s crazy,” Walker exclaimed. “The fact that I might have to bond out of jail, pay court costs or a $500 fine for expressing my love – it’s ridiculous man. It’s ridiculous.” “I can understand they can escort me out of the graduation, but to say they going to put me in jail for it,” Miller added. “What else are they allowed to do?” Watch the local video from WREG-TV… If you agree that this is ridiculous then help us SPREAD THE WORD and hold the police and this superintendent accountable for their bullying this family! (Article by S. Wooten) ******** Superintendent Jay Foster defended the police state response, saying that he had warned audience members to hold their cheers until all names had been called. Sometimes the petty tyrants are the worst. Superintendent Jay Foster filed disturbing the peace charges against all of them. "Disturbing the peace"? Uh - OK, sure thing fascist. What an officiously petty little prick. Welcome to Police State Amerika, where unbridled joy in your child's achievement is a now a crime.

No applause, cheering or towel waving allowed.
Murushin. I bought a better helmet than a motorcycle. I'm pretty sure that my little brother stole it and sold it.
Nice looking bike Chuck. What size is that? I can't quite make it out. I had a buddy that had a 900 Kawasaki. I rode it once, it was a beast.
I liked it. And another time I was cruising down a dirt road Lesson: Don't ride a street bike on dirt. (Don't.) Came up too fast on a big pothole - I chose the latter. And went end over end - in the air. Whee!

"Ya got a helmet?"
"Hey, that's my head in there!"
The helmet - not the motorcycle - which I sold to my cousin.

...Nice looking bike...
Only had two minor mishaps:
Person in a BMW ran a light -
I slid sideways across the parking lot of a
Wawa convenience store - could have been much
worse.
in the New Jersey Pine Barrens.
Quick decision - try to avoid it - left or right -
and probably go down - or take it head-on.
Landed on my face - scraping my forearms on the gravel.
Whee!
But no bones broken or anything...
