KU links: Comanche the horse, temper tantrums and more on online education
I don't see anything in the article that says Comanche was Custer's horse or that he was the only survivor of the battle.

Mexican restaurant Tapas closes as it loses lease on downtown building; Mexquisito expands into Eudora
Tapas has really good food and good service. Haven't had a bad meal in there yet. Sorry to see it close, especially if it's going to be out on Wakarusa. Guarantee I won't be going there since it's completely across town from my house. Mexquisito is empty at the best of times. And they're expanding? Really? It has mostly bad reviews online and a walk past the restaurant at dinner time shows empty booths. Wow. Downtown Lawrence surprises me once again.

Four arrested for burglary at mobile home park
very strange how my comment from yesterday about Remby disappeared without even a "This comment was removed by the site staff for violation of the usage agreement." comment from the paper, like it was never even posted. It was there earlier this morning and now...it's gone. I wonder if it's due to this person who tried to contact me privately at 4:30 this morning:
Hello,
The user micrem sent the following message to you via LJWorld.com:
==============================
You seem fimilar with Jesse. Do you know him personally? This came as a shock to me when I seen this online. He is protraying a different person. I couldn't believe it. If you can shed some light please do so.
micrem
==============================
Not sure who you are "micrem" but feel free to look him up on the DOC website. With a 30 year criminal history, I don't think my comments are out of line and you can make your own mind up without any input from me. Just be careful who you trust. Sometimes when someone's patting you on the back, they're looking for a place to stick the knife.

I'm all for giving convicts second chances if they earn and deserve them. Remby was in court last year (even though he says it's been 7 years). The only reason he hasn't been charged with a "person" felony is because some of the things he's done (stealing and writing checks, burglaries, crack use) are either not reported or are ignored by the authorities. You tell the people whose checks he stole or whose house(s)/property were burglarized by this loser that the crime against them wasn't against a "person" and see how well that goes over. As far as the crack, let him smoke it up. Aside from what he does to get the money to do crack, it's mostly only destructive to him.
And I'm sorry but I don't believe the "I was just talking to a female and got caught up" story. In most cases, you don't get arrested for just talking to someone.Add in an extensive criminal history and being caught with people who just stole a boat and trailer, and you CAN be arrested.
Sorry but it you want folks to think you're reformed, you have to reform all parts of your life, including who you associate with.
