For those of you who don't know Earl, Earl L. Shewell is the 48 year old man who lives at the flop house on 22 Broad Street, in Glens Falls. He was arrested late Wednesday for fighting with a man on the front porch, and the man fell off the porch and suffered a broken arm and a head injury that required stitches.
Earl was charged with second degree assault a felony, and the misdemeanor charge of resisting arrest when he fought with arresting officers and had to be zapped with the old Taser gun. Earl was sent to Warren County Jail for lack of bail.
Now for those of us who know Earl Shewell, we knew him as the black cowboy hat wearing, dark sunglasses wearing, black socks with sandals wearing, cigar smoking man. But Old Earl won't be needing these items in jail, and besides that he needs the money for bail, and every little bit helps, so...
...for a limited time only, the Earl Shewell Collection is up for sale on eBay! Yep if you act fast, the Earl Shewell Collection can all be yours!
Black Cowboy Hat
Dark Sunglasses
Black Socks
Sandals
Yes now you too can be Earl Shewell. You can run down the street shouting,"Look at me everybody I'm Earl Shewell!" Or something like that.

Your Reprieve Is Almost Here
Yes your reprieve from boredom is almost here. The Crandall Library is going to reopen on Tuesday April 24 After long hours of sitting in the car in Crandall Park reading books, I'll finally be able to sit in the library once again at it's new location.
After mass panic ensued on April 1st when the library closed, our wait is now over. It's been 3 long weeks, but the end is almost here. Besides that I have 2 library books I want to return. One is due next week.

Amy Lee Lip Syncing?
I had made mention in my Video Of Mass Panic! that I had noticed that the traffic in Glens Falls had been increasing, and that video was filmed on Thursday, April 5. So what I thought might have been Easter travelers, was more likely people going to the EVANESCENCE concert at the Glens Falls Civic Center that same night.
And apparently a few people,(check the comments at the bottom of the article), thought Amy Lee was lip syncing
Where the hell did that come from? Nowhere in the article was there any mention of lip syncing, so one can only assume from people who were there, that there was an element of lip syncing going on.
I wasn't there so I don't care, but my point is...
...I have got to start keeping up with current events in Glens Falls, they are so far and few in between, it shouldn't be too hard to do!

Still Don't Get It?
Well don't feel bad, either do I. Kimberly A. Wright, 21, was charged at 12:03 a.m. with, you guessed it, DWI even though her blood-alcohol content was found to be 0.07 percent, below the 0.08 percent threshold for driving while intoxicated.
But she was still charged with DWI based on Glens Falls Police Sgt. John Winchell's observations of her behavior, authorities said.
Not possible you say? Well it's only in Glens Falls Baby!

The Shamrock Shake Recipe
I had said that there were No Shamrock Shakes in Glens Falls, and technically that is true, simply because there is no McDonald's here in Glens Falls, but as I was ordering in a nearby McDonald's, I happened to notice that the Shamrock Shake was on the menu. They didn't make any effort to advertise these things this year, I guess they just naturally assumed that people would know about them. Not! I forgot all about them, until I saw a video about them.
Poor advertising on McDonald's part. But what I'm leading up to is this. If you've never tried a Shamrock Shake before, or are simply craving one, the recipe is really simple. I found this copycat recipe.
For one serving:
1 cup vanilla ice cream or soy ice cream
5/8 cup 2% low-fat milk or soy milk
1/8 teaspoon mint extract
4 drops green food coloring
But I've simplified the recipe even further, by using 1 cup of of mint ice cream, and 5/8 cup of milk. And that's it. It's mint flavored and green colored already.
So screw McDonald's and just make the shake yourself. And enjoy it anytime of year, not just on Saint Patrick's Day.

Mass Panic Ensues
Photo by Katie@!
Now that the Crandall Library has closed it's doors for a few weeks, a lot of people are left wondering, what do we do now that the library is closed?
One man was reported as saying,"Every night when I get out of work, I immediately head over to the crandall library for a few hours until closing time. The only other alternative would be to go home to my wife, Agnes."
The reporter said,"Damn! You don't want to do that, man!"
And the man responded as saying, "No I don't want to do that, but what else can I do? What else can I do? I mean I could go to a bar and drink, but Agnes would smell alcohol on my breath, and there would be hell to pay when I got home. She'd accuse me of picking up some floosy in the bar, and she'd never let me hear the end of it."
And the reporter said, "That's a shame. It really is."
One woman was reported as saying, "You know the Crandall library is my only solace from my husband and three kids. Without the library I'd have to go home and make dinner for my family, and then have unfulfilled sex with my husband. But at the library, I can sit for hours and hours, reading sappy romance novels, and when I leave here at 9pm, and go home, my husband is usually asleep and the kids are all in bed. But now, I feel like my whole world is falling apart!"
And the report responded, "I feel your pain ma'am, I feel your pain."
But all hope is not lost however, there are other libraries you can go to, and as soon as I get the hours for each library, I'll be posting them here.
So please, Do not panic! Remain calm! Help is on it's way!
