"Nomad to stay in Maine longer, even with decrepit bus towed after standoff"

[CCCSD]

No. It's all the cops who buy them bus tickets and send them out here...

But someone told me years ago that fruits, nuts, and flakes ("It's just like a bowl of granola") were inevitably drawn westward until they were stopped by the Pacific Ocean, and that's how "the Golden State" ended up with so many.

Thanks for "sharing," California. (And any other places that just encouraged him and his fellow hippie-dips to keep moving onward to the East Coast.)

You're welcome. Unfortunately we still have plenty of our own.

Finally! I told him Maine was beautiful...

Corbin Pratt drove cross country from California and had been parking in Maine for awhile until his luck ran out Monday

SOUTH PORTLAND — The 1981 school bus has empty yellow sockets where the headlights should be, bald tires and two pieces of duct tape to keep grease from oozing out of a front wheel.

After learning that police planned to tow the bus, the 29-year-old Pratt ran back on board and hid beneath his mattress, leading to a three-hour confrontation with police. Officers did not believe Pratt had any guns, but couldn’t be sure. He eventually surrendered, was charged with criminal trespassing and ordered to appear in court Dec. 3.

“I just go with the flow,” said Pratt, who hot-wires the bus to start it because he lost the keys while doing hallucinogenic drugs.
