All JP Morgan Chase has to do to not lose the $2 billion is not give out bonuses to their executives for one year - although that alone is probably MORE than $2 billion.

I asked the same question on the Bend news website - why does this guy's personal life have to be our business? I got shot down too of course - I just figure the guy should be able to not be part of the TMZ crap in his own (new) hometown. This isn't news - it's voyeurism, and it isn't something I need or want to know. I am sure his wife and kids, who go to school in Bend, would also not like their personal lives broadcast to everyone. There are dui's in Bend every day, and not a single one of them is put on a front page.

Our friends own a daycare that has chickens, ducks, a pig, goats, rabbits (it is a GREAT daycare) and the poor daycare owners have a terrible time protecting their animals from nighttime racoon invasions! They have killed chickens, dismembered ducks, and severely attacked one of the goats. They thought a crazy dog or a coyote was doing all the damage - turns out it was a racoon. The owners have tried live trapping too - DID NOT work - racoons are smart and somehow they would get the food and leave animal body parts on top of the trap. I used to think racoons were cute - now I just think they are horrifying!

". . . but the bottom line is . . . " Sorry smlsa - I just couldn't help myself : )

Judy Meridith did write down their GPS coordinates and sent the information to the U.S. Coast Guard when she realized the crew wasn't going to do anything, but the Coast Guard also did nothing. (At least according to the the article on Bend's website about the incident at http://www.ktvz.com/news/30910440/detail.html).

Looks closer to an ork from Middle Earth than "messiah"!

Notice how in every picture of Haugen he is staring directly at the camera? He LOVES the attention, and he LOVES getting articles written about him. I say the best punishment for Haugen would to lock him away and never report on him again . . that would REALLY make him suffer.

My brother works at the hospital where this cretin was in Medford while he was "unconscious" for three weeks. My brother and his coworkers thought Criado was totally faking being unconscious. Just like now he is faking mental illness. What a total scumbag.

THE DUDE ABIDES!
