Secret Service Probes Boy's Art Depicting Bush As Devil: "POSTED: 10:37 a.m. EDT April 26, 2004
PROSSER, Wash. -- One drawing showed President George W. Bush's head on a stick. Another depicted Bush as a devil launching a missile.
The drawings by a 15-year-old boy in Prosser were enough to prompt some questions from the Secret Service.
Agents questioned the teen after being called by police. The boy's art teacher told school officials about the drawings, and they called police.
The boy was not arrested. The school district has taken disciplinary action but refused to say what it was.

Judge orders phone thrown out of window: "Judge orders phone thrown out of window

'He violated the courthouse rule,' Clark said. 'They told him not to bring that thing in there.'
The defendant had already taken several phone calls on his phone, but had always left the court room. The final call was taken in the courtroom and that seemed to be the final straw for the presiding judge.
The phone landed on the roof of the district attorney's office - but it was not made clear if the phone survived the fall. "
