Ten dollars says Thompson had a vicious flashback to his 1970 Freak Power campaign for Pitkin County sheriff missing by that much and scaring the bejesus out of him.

Eric Eldred—yeah, the Eric Eldred who filed a lawsuit against John Ashcroft to keep some scrap of the public domain, well, public—got threatened with arrest at Walden Pond for giving away copies of Thoreau’s Walden.
