Desert bum in a one-person line-up to identify an ice cream extortionist

Southeast Poison Spider Mesa (near Moab, Utah)


"Guy in the white hat, step forward and say in a loud voice, 'Hey kid, give me
that cherry vanilla ice cream cone or you'll wish you had not been born!' "

Sgt. Joe Tripod, holding the police camera, stood silently during the episode.

Yeah. I have been keeping up with it. Some rag mag put out a bogus story and the entire real transcript wound up on Snopes.

I make no claim to that title, but some people consider me a frightful entity.

I saw your photos of the "Maw of Terror", is this the "Pa of Terror"?

I tried that one, Steve, but it didn't go over well with the judge: I was sentenced to "no trips to Moab for six months." That's the mental equivalent of breaking rocks on a chain gang.
Larry, have you been reading the transcript of the trial?

Plea for ameliorating circumstances: "Well, Your Honor, I'm getting better since I stopped stealing candy from babies."

Guilty as charged, Your Honor. I had no choice, though. It's Breyer's.
