Veek, Ritzy...you boys alright up there? Shooting this morning at the Morrison County Courthhouse in Little Falls. And yes, Veek, the gunman is our old pal GW.
Hope everybody is OK.

snoop dawg

so are we not to post jokes, fishing stories, beer comments or the like anymore, or just limit them?  I think we should have a charity golf tourney to raise funds for PC to upgrade the pc's . I will host it at my club.  Or, we could have a fishing tourney to raise the money.  Last option, a beer drinking contest, choice of Hamm's, choice of any ale or lager you can agree upon, and of course, Corona.  I'll buy the beer.

Well, the article says the gunman ran "sex-oriented business" so I was afraid it was TDT!  Hope not!

Looks like "our old pal GW" went to meet his maker, expiring at St. Gabriel's Hospital of gunshot wounds.

snoop dawg

Out here in LA-La land, all of our county and city buildings have metal detectors at the entrances.  Looks like you need them in Minneapolis. 

Veek

I'm alive!!!!

Fins, Tmert, TDT, Dusty, JR, and friends,

Hope you are all enjoying your summer.

The events that transpired in the Morrison County Government Center do not completely surprise me as the guy was a nut but I was in court there this morning for over an hour and I left just five minutes before he arrived.  I was within earshot of the room where the holdup took place.  

Situations like this one are rare in Little Falls but I'll bet that security is tightened from this point forward.  Until today you would only walk through a metal detector to enter the court wing.  The rest of the courthouse was accessible, including the county commissioner's board room where the shooting occurred, without going through any security checkpoints.  

In Stearns County, Fins' stomping grounds, you can't enter the courthouse without going through security and cell phones are not allowed, either.

Onto other things, is there any golfing get together planned for this summer?  Give me an hour notice and have a case of Hamms available and I'll be there.
Go Johnnies!!!

Veek, buddy, good to hear from you. All of the joking around about old Gordy, WOW! I'm supposed to be there tomorrow at 11, wonder if that will happen. Glad you got outta there. I heard 15 shots fired. Surprised no one hit but Gordy.
Let's do the golf soon.  2nd or 3rd week in July. Who's in?

I could do the 30th in Ely! And I can guarantee that I will be a scratch player that day - yes, I'll be scratching all the skeeter bites I pick up during the fishing trip in Quetico.

Good to hear from you, Veek.  You certainly were close to the action - what took you to court this morning - serving beer out of the back of your truck again? :D
