Local News

--It's raining again. But I got the lawn mowed yesterday so I don't care. Ha!

--Locals are being asked to submit photos to the casting company for Billy Bob Thornton's movie "Chrystal", which will be shot in Eureka Springs, Fayetteville, and around. They're looking for ""Rural-looking townsfolk," children of all ages, families, 3- or 4-year-old twin boys, 9-month-old twins, a 6-year-old rural girl, folk musicians, rural teenage boys and stand-ins" so dust off your best overalls and go get discovered.

--3 fellas argued about the Iraq war; one shot & killed the pro-war, pro-Bush fella. My daddy always did say there were two things you just didn't discuss, politics and religion. Guess this is why.

--Fella in North Little Rock was upset because he was going to have to buy a new tire instead of repairing the old one, so he shot & wounded a tire shop employee. Guess he won't be needing new tires where he'll be going now.

--Finally, a Fayetteville woman reported "three people and a dog on her roof. She suspects a certain man and "the girl that runs around with him that has no teeth."" That certainly narrows the suspect pool, doesn't it?

Of course, he was probably a peace activist asserting his peacefulness.

Nah, they were all drunk...the guy who got shot had pulled his gun first & shot a few rounds in the floor to emphasis his point. Liquor & politics don't mix too well 'round here.
