More on methamphetamine in the Oct. 9 Outpost, but Sheriff Chuck Maxwell's reliable gift for finding humor in nearly any situation brightened a kickoff breakfast here Wednesday. Maxwell took the microphone immediately after Police Chief Ron Tussing, whose remarks were interrupted by the ringing of his cell phone. The chief apologized and handed the mike to Maxwell. About a minute into Maxwell's remarks, his pager went off. He deadpanned, "I just turned that on because I wanted you all to realize that I'm needed, too."
