10.20.1986
November 30, 2006
Note: My short-lived attendance at Ricks College in the small town of Rexburg, Idaho twenty years ago was a defining stage of my life. Mostly for unpleasant reasons. Taking an extremely impulsive anarchist skate punk from California and putting them in the Rexburg of 1986, what can you expect? My being an 18-year-old with the maturity of a 9-year-old didn’t help, either. But it was in Rexburg that I fell in love with photography and abandoned my academic career to follow my passion.
These entries are written from the journals I kept when I was 18. Of course, at 38 today, I do not advocate any of the illegal activity discussed here. -Trent

At night, Kay, Larry, Ray, Drake, and I went out. We took paint pens, spray paint, stencils, etc. Read the press release for details:
Richard Stallings Idaho’s Congressman
Contact: Melodie Rydalch Phone: 234-1986
For Immediate Release:
POCATELLO - Sallee Gasser, campaign manager for Congressman Richard Stallings, is joining representatives of other candidates in expressing disappointment in the number of political signs being damaged or destroyed by vandals.
Mrs. Gasser says Stallings signs in several counties have been damaged. “These signs are expensive, and community residents have volunteered many hours to put them in place. It’s disheartening to have them damaged.”
Mrs. Gasser says she believes the damage is not being done by representatives of other campaigns, but may be the work of pranksters of vandals.
