Keeping up the Pahrumpians

[Arab Nights (imported)]

The latest news from God’s little piece of heaven on earth: Pahrump, NV.

Maria Furtado was arrested for taking a neighbor’s 6 month old puppy and taking it out in the desert and shooting it twice. It was still alive, so she told her 15 year old son to shoot and kill it in front of her 3 year old. She asked to be released at her initial court appearance so she could go home and take care of her children. Instead the judge increased her bail from $10,000 to $25,000.

Arab Nights,

I copied your post and sent it to an acquaintance who lives in Nye Co. No reference to EA, just said I saw it on a "news" site. He's leans toward the tinfoil hat crowd. His response should be interesting.

Sounds like a fine field trip to make!

Arab Nights,

His response should be interesting.

Please share when you get it.

I like to get papers from small towns as I travel. I might explain that I do not go to Pahrump. For work I sometimes travel up Highway 95 which is the main highway between Vegas and Reno. I often stop at the village of Beatty about 2 hours north of Vegas. I get the Pahrump papers there. The news from Pahrump is different from any other town I have seen. The first couple of times I was amazed and amused. Over time I have come to expect it.

Not as interesting as I was hoping for but here it is:

"thanks, here's the beginning of the story....the lady should have called the sheriff's office because the dog killed 2 of her ducks, so she took the dog into the desert and shot it. I wonder what her attorney will do.

Haven't heard about the 300 mile wall around San Francisco."

The 300 mile wall was actually something tongue in cheek - finally. Too much Pahrumpianisms is too much.
