All-Star rally under the lights
Albert Cano rounds third base as Cain Omohundro scores in the first inning of
Bishop’s opening round game Tuesday against Kern Valley in the Little League AllStar Tournament. Bishop scored an unbelievable 22 runs before having a single
batter retired and wound up winning 36-0. The tournament rolls on for Bishop;
tonight they’ll play against the winner of last night’s Owens Valley v. Tehachapi game.
Evening action takes place under the lights at the Owens Valley Career Development
field at the corner of Barlow and Diaz lanes in Bishop.

Manzanar group calls Thomas comments ‘appalling’
Supreme Court justice
upbraided for citing

Statements made late last week by
one of the U.S. Supreme Court justices in reference to civil rights have
drawn the ire of the Manzanar
Committee.
A non-profit organization dedicated to raising public awareness about
the incarceration of Japanese
Americans at detention camps during
World War II, the Manzanar
Committee has denounced remarks
made by Justice Clarence Thomas
during the High Court’s historic, 5-4
ruling to legalize same-sex marriage
in the U.S.
The controversial ruling effectively
legalizes same-sex marriage throughout the nation, nullifying and prevent-
ing state bans on the unions. The
crux of the debate for the Supreme
Court came down to whether denying
gays the right to marry was denying
them equal rights and dignity in the
eyes of the law.
Last Friday, Thomas ignited additional controversy while trying to
make a point about African
Americans and Japanese Americans
retaining their dignity despite past
oppression, and why the gay community would similarly not lose dignity
by being denied the right to marry.

QUOTE OF THE DAY
By Alyse Bertenthal
Special to The Inyo Register
“Only a ‘dry as dust’

minister to extol the
glories of Heaven
while ignoring
social conditions
that cause men an
Earthly hell. ”

The drought is as bad as it
looks.
And it’s probably going to
be looking a lot worse as the
summer wears on.
After hearing that sober
assessment, the Inyo County
Water Commission wasn’t
exactly enthusiastic about the
Los Angeles Department of
Water and Power’s plans to
drill three new productionsized water wells to tap
underground aquifers in
Bishop and Big Pine.
“We’re in the worst
drought ever,” noted commissioner Craig Patten, “and
DWP is wants to drill new
wells? That’s bordering on
insanity.”
While some commissioners brought up the idea of
trying to block any new wells,
the full commission reached
a general consensus that the
county should closely monitor the process used by
LADWP and the county for
assessing and approving the
proposed new wells.
Construction of the new wells
is tentatively slated for
October or November. The

Thanks to popular fiction and film, we’ve had ample opportunity to learn about the “secret life” of bees. But what about
their keepers? This year’s Independence Fourth of July grand
marshals, Philip and John Baxter, are well known for their
sweet Baxter Honey, which they’ve been producing and selling
in the Owens Valley for decades.
Residents and visitors will be able to help recognize the
Baxter brothers, and the Baxter family’s place in local history,
as the pair rides in Saturday’s July 4 parade in Independence,
starting at 10 a.m.
The Baxter family has been in the Owens Valley for more
than a century. John and Philip’s grandfather – originally from
Canada – was on a boat from Panama to Los Angeles when he

wells
Continued from front page
commission also stressed the
county should make sure
safeguards are in place to
ensure any new wells are
closely monitored so any
pumping from the wells will
not provide water for export,
damage the environment or
have a negative impact on
existing wells and other nearby water users and uses.
“It’s pretty basic stuff,”
said Commission Chair Mike
Prather. “We don’t want any
more impacts” from groundwater pumping.
After LADWP has presented detailed information about
all the proposed wells and
their potential impacts, “we
have to be ready as a county
to pull the trigger on a ‘no’ if
this look and smells bad,”
Patten suggested.
Stark data about the impact
of virtually no snowpack on
streams and creeks preceded
the discussion about the new
wells, and confirmed observations about low stream levels.
With LADWP not exporting
Owens Valley water until later
this year, there are sections of
the Los Angeles Aqueduct in
the Lone Pine area holding
what appears to be inches of
water, not several feet, Prather
said. And LADWP is placing
small dams in the aqueduct
to try and back up water so it
can be used for irrigation.
(The Inyo L.A. Standing
Committee will meet July 24
to discuss the status of efforts
to reallocate water for irrigation and Owens Valley uses
for the rest of the summer.)
Prather estimated that
Cottonwood Creek, south of
Lone Pine, was running at 50
percent of normal, at best.
Inyo
County
Water
Department Director Bob
Harrington said recent readings peg the amount of water
flowing in Big Pine Creek at
46 percent of average. Baker
Creek and Independence
creeks are both running at
about 27 percent of average
for this time of year.
Bishop Creek is running at
about 50 percent of normal,
Harrington said, with only
about 70 cubic feet per second (cfs) in the stream, compared to 70 cfs during a more
normal year.
Several factors besides low
snowpack are affecting Bishop
Creek.
Southern California Edison
controls the water releases
into Bishop Creek after water
from South Lake and Lake
Sabrina is used to generate
hydro power in Edison’s
Bishop Creek power plants.
Edison’s water releases must
also comply with the Chandler
Decree, a court ruling that
spells out how much water
should flow to irrigators and
other water users downstream of Edison.
The Chandler Decree mandates flows of about 106 cfs
in the summer months.
Harrington provided a chart
showing how in the past two
years, higher flows in the
summer close to that benchmark were followed dramatic
drops in in the fall and winter.
This year, the low flows
have been fairly steady, leading Patten to conclude that
since South Lake is essentially
“empty,” Edison was “holding
back water” in Sabrina so it
could release it later in the
year. “Sabrina is coming up,
you can see it,” he said.
Patten added that by July
and August Bishop Creek’s
flows will likely drop off significantly.
Due to low snowpack and
water management decisions,
low flows in Bishop Creek
have in the past couple of
years have lowered the area’s
water table, dried up ditches
and dried up some domestic
water wells in West Bishop.
Both new wells in the
Bishop area, one by South
Schober Lane and one by the
Bishop Gun Club north of
town, are included in the
1991 Long Term Water
Agreement and Environmental
Impact Report, so the formal
environmental work on them
is complete, Harrington said.
However, the Inyo L.A.
Technical Group must review
the proposed wells. Harrington
said LADWP will prepare a
detailed “pre-construction
evaluation” of the wells and
their potential impacts, a
monitoring and well-testing
plan, and an operational
plan.
It’s pretty basic
“stuff.
We don’t
want any more
impacts from
groundwater
pumping.
”– Mike Prather,
Chair,
Inyo County Water
Commission
Commissioner Terri Red
Owl brought up a larger point.
She said her concern was
LADWP will eventually replace
surface water with pumped
water to meet its mandated
obligations in the Bishop area
for irrigation and enhancement and mitigation measures. That would create a
long-term set of issues and
concerns, especially if the
surface water is “diverted”
into the Owens River and
then the L.A. Aqueduct.
Commissioner
Mike
Carrington of Big Pine also
listed a series of concerns
and possible negative impacts
from a new well in Bell
Canyon, which would supply
water to the Big Pine Ditch
system. That well is also part
of the LTWA, but is also subject Tech Group review. As
with the other wells, a preconstruction report, well testing and an operational plan
will be submitted by LADWP
for review later this summer.
Two other new wells –
replacing a 1928-vintage well
in Laws and a new domestic
water well for the Cottonwood
Power Plant -- will not undergo that level of scrutiny, based
on the guidelines in the
LTWA.

The theme of the 2015 Independence July 4
Parade and resulting T-shirt design pay tribute to

in the Owens Valley.

heard about the Cerro Gordo
Mine, and decided to continue
north. Soon after settling in
the valley, the brothers’ grandfather met their grandmother,
who, according to John, had
“followed the circus” to Lone
Pine. They set up a house
north of town, and when surveyors came through the area
in 1875, they stayed with the
Baxters. The legacy of the
Baxter hospitality lives on, for,
as John noted, the surveyors
“named several places for us
– like Baxter Mountain and
Baxter Pass.”
Philip spent much of his
childhood on a ranch outside
the valley, but he followed his
father to Independence in
1929. John, who is 10 years
younger than Philip, joined
them when he was about
seven, after his father had
purchased what they now call
the Baxter Ranch. The story of
that ranch is a fitting tale for
Independence Day. In John’s
words: The previous owner
“tried to sell it (the ranch) to
the city for 2,500 dollars and
they offered him 15 for it.
Well, he told the city he wasn’t
going to sell it to them for
1,500 dollars. And he was
talking to a group of people at
quitting time out in the shop
and he says, ‘I’d sell it to anybody else for 1,500 dollars
except the city.’ My dad pulled
a silver dollar out of his pocket and he says, ‘Here’s the
down payment.’”
Philip and John Baxter have
a lot of good memories of
their life in the Owens Valley.
When asked to describe his
favorite thing about living in
the valley, Philip confessed,
“Well, I’m doing my favorite
thing: I’m retired … I like to go
up to the ranch and watch the
cattle and so on and so forth.
I don’t know what I’d do without it. And there’s not much
of that left in this country.”
John also appreciates living in the valley. “Well,” he
said, “one thing about it is
Owens Valley, as far as I’m
concerned, has got as good a
climate as you can find anywhere.”
The climate isn’t always
perfect, however. John and
Philip recounted one freakishly cold Fourth of July:
“They had a ball game in Lone
Pine,” John remembered. “The
snow got four inches deep
and they called the game off.
On the Fourth of July! It can
snow every day of the year
here. But it hasn’t for a long
time.”
Snow or no snow, the
Baxters said that they enjoy
the holiday. Philip looks forward to the fireworks, and
John recalled, “I used to enjoy
the Fourth of July when I was
a kid. We’d buy these fire-
crackers, then we’d light them
off. Bang! Bang! Bang! … They
didn’t used to have fireworks
back then like they do now.
Because they didn’t have a fire
department. They had one
truck with a water tank on it
– that was it.”
As for bees, Philip confided
that the secret is “keeping
them alive.” It’s an important
job, and not as straightforward as it sounds. “They pollinate everything,” Philip
explained. “They got to have
bees to pollinate the crops.”
But bees also need rain, so
making honey means following the rain. “When we have
to, we can put those bees on a
truck and away we go,” Philip
said. “(We) just have to do
things as they come along.”
Philip’s son, David Baxter,
runs the bee business now,
leaving Philip and John to
enjoy their retirement. “You
know, when you’re working
for somebody,” John mused,
“you never do anything tomorrow that you can do today.
But when you’re retired, you
never do anything today that
you can do tomorrow.” That
sounds like sage advice for
retirees and holiday revelers
alike. So, go ahead, put things
off until tomorrow, and enjoy
this Fourth of July. Your grand
marshals, Philip and John
Baxter, would most certainly
approve.

Exchange student’s
grandfather
grateful to Bishop
(The following was originally sent
to Bishop Lions Club member Stan
Smith, with a copy forwarded to The
Inyo Register for publication. –Ed.)
Dear Lionsfriend Smith and dear
members of the Lions Club Bishop!
I am writing this letter to thank
you tremendously for taking care
of my granddaughter Barbara during her exchange year in Bishop. I
thank you also for all the pictures
you mailed and information you
mailed to us. Naturally it was very
calming and also interesting to see
what Barbara has seen and experiences she made. You have been so kind to her,
welcoming her to your Lions Club,
helping her in many ways, bringing
the American way of life close to
her.
I am sure that this exchange year
is formative for her life, in being
open to other cultures, in tolerance,
in esteeming our own country and
values.
I know that the organization for
hosting foreign students is a lot of
work and a lot of responsibility. All
the more we are thankful to all the
people who made it possible for
Barbara to experience this exchange
year in Bishop, in such a wonderful
way.
We greatly missed her the last
year and are looking forward to her
coming home, but our missing her
was a small thing compared to the
benefits to her, and the friendships
that will last her lifetime.
I wish all the best to you and all
the people who were helping her in
so many ways during this year in
Bishop. I want to assure you that you are
welcome in Austria whenever you
like. Let us know when you intend
to visit Austria.
Thank you again, and best wishes to you and your club members
for your Lions Club programs in the
future.
With friendly Lions greetings,

Throwback Thursday
Ahhhhh, snow
With recent triple-digit temperatures bearing down on the Owens Valley lately, let us gaze upon
the wonder that is this photo showing what seems like an impossible amount of snow smothering Main Street in Bishop in January 1933. The view is looking north from about where
Spellbinder Books would be, and includes what is now Mountain Light Gallery and, beyond
that, Steve Thomas’ vintage store. Do you have a vintage photo – of yourself, your family or
even local landmarks – you’d like featured for “Throwback Thursday” in an upcoming edition?
If so, email it along with essential information to [email protected], or drop it off at the
Register at 1180 N. Main St., Ste. 108, Bishop.

The Manzanar Committee
quickly responded by calling
the comments not just misguided, ignorant and offensive, but “appalling.”
The fight of gay Americans
to attain equal rights under
the law has been an ongoing
struggle with which members
of the Manzanar Committee
can empathize. Many of the
committee’s activists are second-generation
citizens
whose parents were forced to
live behind barbed wire and
under the watch of armed
guards during World War II.
These citizens, because of
their Japanese ancestory,
were deemed less entitled to
basic human rights than
other Americans, including
freedom of speech and freedom of religion. Two-thirds
of the citizens interned were
born in America, including
the late Sue Embrey who,
against initial resistance from
a still-traumatized Japanese
American community and an
embarrassed U.S. government, fought to establish the
Manzanar National Historic
Site.
According to Manzanar
Co-Chair and Sue’s son, Bruce
Embrey, among his mother’s
early allies and helpers were
gay and lesbian members of
the Japanese American community.
“So this really hits close to
home for us,” Embrey said of
the Supreme Court decision.
In general, he explained,
the Manzanar Committee
feels a responsibility to speak
out and offer assistance any
time a group’s civil and constitutional rights are at risk
or outright being violated.
It’s why, Embrey said, the
committee has been outspoken against anti-Arab and
anti-Muslim sentiment in
America, as well as the
demonizing of an entire religion based on the actions of
a few.
And it’s why, when news
of the Supreme Court’s ruling
in favor of same-sex marriage
came down last Friday, the
Manzanar Committee was
among those celebrating.
“Thankfully, the majority
of the U.S. Supreme Court
clearly sees the importance
of ensuring LGBT people will
no longer be denied the same
rights we all enjoy,” Embrey
said. “Marriage equality is a
right for all people.”
Elation aside, the committee could not let Thomas’
statements go unchallenged.
“We felt compelled to
address his comments and
we feel the Japanese American
community has a legacy and
a particular responsibility to
advocate for every group
that’s denied constitutional
liberties,” he said.
Among the assertions
Clarence Thomas,
Associate Justice,
U.S. Supreme Court
made by Justice Thomas is
the suggestion that being
denied civil rights does not
mean being denied one’s dignity.
“… Human dignity cannot
be taken away by the government. Slaves did not lose
their dignity (any more than
they lost their humanity)
because the government
allowed them to be enslaved,”
Thomas wrote. “Those held
in internment camps did not
lose their dignity because the
government confined them.
And those denied governmental benefits certainly do
not lose their dignity because
the government denies them
those benefits. The government cannot bestow dignity,
and it cannot take it away.”
Embrey, said Thomas, in
referring to the internees of
the 10 World War II detention
camps, simply doesn’t know
what he’s talking about.
“There is no doubt that
oppressed people throughout history have managed to
maintain their dignity,”
Embrey said. “Our families
managed to remain dignified
and proud despite being subjected to the humiliation and
violence
while
forcibly
removed from their homes
and communities at the order
of President Franklin D.
Roosevelt after the outbreak
of World War II.”
Even so, Embrey said,
Thomas is way off base.
“It is a dangerous and
troubling sign that a United
States Supreme Court Justice
apparently believes that
because people can maintain
their dignity despite horrific
oppression, incarceration or
deprivation of civil rights,
they do not need equal protection under the law,” said
Embrey. “Following his logic,
it appears that if Justice
Thomas had been a member
of Congress during the struggle for redress and reparations, he would he have held
that the Civil Liberties Act of
1988 was not necessary since
the Japanese American people maintained their digni-
ty.”
Embrey continued, “It is
simply astounding that
Justice Thomas apparently
has no understanding of our
history, and of the relationship between our government
and the people. Our government took away our community’s liberty, civil and human
rights, and facilitated the economic and social devastation
of the Japanese American
community.”
According
to Justice
Thomas, however, it is not
the government’s responsibility to provide for either
liberty or dignity in the first
place.
“Our Constitution – like
the
Declaration
of
Independence before it – was
predicated on a simple truth:
One’s liberty, not to mention
one’s dignity, was something
to be shielded from – and not
provided by – the State,”
Thomas wrote on Page 49 of
the court’s ruling.
What Thomas fails to recognize, according to Embrey
and other civil rights leaders,
is either the 13th or 14th
amendments, the former of
which abolished slavery.
The Manzanar Committee
points out that the 14th
Amendment was clearly
intended to preserve personal freedoms, dictating that
“… No State shall make or
enforce any law which shall
abridge the privileges or
immunities of citizens of the
United States; nor shall any
State deprive any person of
life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor
deny to any person within its
jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.”
And it was a violation of
the 14th Amendment that
Justices Anthony Kennedy,
Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Sonia
Sotomayor, Elena Kagan and
Stephen Breyer ultimately
saw when considering whether bans on same-sex marriage
should be allowed to stand.
In the majority ruling written by Justice Kennedy, he
states that gay Americans not
only have a constitutional
right to marry in all 50 states,
but a right to equal dignity as
well.
In acknowledging that
opposition will remain and
debate should continue,
Kennedy wrote on page 32,
“The Constitution, however,
does not permit the State to
bar same-sex couples from
marriage on the same terms
as accorded to couples of the
opposite sex.” On page 33 he
continued, “Their hope is not
be condemned to live in loneliness, excluded from one of
civilization’s oldest institutions. They ask for equal dignity in the eyes of the law.
The Constitution grants them
that right.”

Your Comments Speak

I love reading
the paper especially
all the articles on
hiking by your
columnist Craig
Jackson. So well
written with
such good detail.
His articles are
phenomenal! I cut
them out and save
every one because I
love to hike and his
articles make me
want to go on every
hike he writes about.
I also enjoy the
Horoscope section. I
don’t normally like
them, but the one
you feature is always
really good! I also
really like that you
include stories and
photos of the CoOp people down in
Independence. I am
a strong supporter
of them. Thank you

NOTICE OF PRELIMINARY PERMIT APPLICATION ACCEPTED FOR
FILING AND SOLICITING COMMENTS, MOTIONS TO INTERVENE,
AND COMPETING APPLICATIONS
(June 5, 2015)
On December 12, 2014, Twain Resources, LLC, filed an application for
a preliminary permit, pursuant to section 4(f) of the Federal Power Act
(FPA), proposing to study the feasibility of the Tungstar Redux Water
Power Project (Tungstar Redux Project or project) to be located at Pine
Creek Mine and along Morgan and Pine Creek, near the City of Bishop
in Inyo County, California. The sole purpose of a preliminary permit, if
issued, is to grant the permit holder priority to file a license application
during the permit term. A preliminary permit does not authorize the
permit holder to perform any land-disturbing activities or otherwise enter
upon lands or waters owned by others without the owners' express
permission.
The proposed project would consist of the following: (1) an intake of an
unspecified design collecting Pine Creek Mine discharge water from its
discharge point on Morgan Creek; (2) an 18-inch-diameter steel
penstock of unspecified length with a 450-foot vertical drop: (3) a
powerhouse: (4) a 600-kW impulse turbine connected to a 625-kVA
generator; (5) a transmission line; (6) a substation connecting to an
existing 56-kV main transmission line, and (7) appurtenant facilities.
The estimated annual generation of the Tungstar Redux Project would
be 3,600 megawatt-hours.

Siblings a financial burden on elderly mother
Dear Annie: My father
passed away many years
ago and my mother remarried and moved to a vacation home. However, she
still owns the house we grew
up in and two of my siblings
now live there for free. My
sister is 60, and my brother
is 46. Neither has worked
for years.
I talk to my mother about
it all the time, telling her she
is not doing them any favors
by allowing this to go on.
Can you tell her what a horrible thing it is to enable two
perfectly capable grown
adults this way? My mother
is 82. What will they do
when she is gone? I have
two other siblings and the
three of us don’t take advantage of our mother this
way.
– Not Right
Dear Not: We agree that
this type of financial
enabling is a huge liability.
But a good work ethic and
accountability need to be
instilled when young. Your
mother may consider these
two children to be incapable
of working, and that her
support is all that keeps
them off the streets. She
does it out of compassion
and guilt. She isn’t asking us
for advice, nor is she likely
to take it, even if we point
out the problems this will
create when she is no longer
in the picture.
Your mother should have
a legal will to minimize disputes about her property
and money. It’s her decision, whether or not you
agree. Your focus should be
on forgiving all of them for
what they are not, and then
doing what you need to do
in order to be sure that

HOROSCOPES BY HOLIDAY
There are things that cross your
mind that you wish wouldn’t have. It’s
not all in your control. Just because
you think it doesn’t mean it’s right or
that you should believe it. In the aftermath of the full moon, test your
thoughts. Take them to inquiry.
Intellectual exploration may just lead
you to the knowledge that your heart
is pure.
ARIES (March 21-April 19).
The wise don’t care about being first in
line. Whatever your place today, you’ll
hold it with the kind of detached confidence that attracts the very best. Your
way will be made easily.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
You’d like to have more self-discipline.
This isn’t a matter of forcing yourself to
do what you don’t want to do. It’s
about building rewards so luscious
that they motivate you to follow
through with your intentions.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
What the day needs is an invigorating
challenge to kick things off on the right
note. Instead of making a list of things
to do today, make a list of things to do
before 1 p.m.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
You’re getting better, mostly because
when you discover your errors, you
rejoice at another opportunity to
improve. This attitude will take you to
mastery.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). This is
the time of year when the Facebook
pages are filled with vacations that
look more glamorous than yours. Just
know that everyone feels that way. As
a matter of fact, someone is envying
your posts today.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
Whatever your game, this is the start
of a hot streak. Between here and the
weekend, there will be several small
wins that add up to something you’ve
wanted for a long time.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’ll
be choosing quickly and sometimes
wrongly. That’s fine, too. Wrong choices lead to right choices as long as
you’re committed to learning from
them.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
When you fear losing something, you
Holiday Mathis
hold onto it too tightly. What if you
were to go the other way and let go?
It might not be time yet, but you have
to admit that this fear is no fun to live
with.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). It’s said that fate doesn’t like to be
tempted. And yet there is a curious
provocateur in you who wants to push
the fates and see just how far they will
go before they retaliate.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
Keeping your skills current requires
some dedication, and you’re willing to
put in the work. Doing so before it’s
really necessary will give you an advantage later. You’ll be ready for an opportunity.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
Most people fail more than they succeed. Great people have failed greatly.
Failure is part of life, and fearing it can
only hold us back. Befriend it instead.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
With an enhanced ability to organize
the future, you’ll create a scenario so
grand that even you are not sure you’ll
be able to pull it off. Leave room for
spontaneous magic.
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (July 2).
It’s time for some entertainment and
fun. You’ll get extra funds for this kind
of thing over the next seven weeks.
September has you heading up a family project. The investment of your
time and energy will pay off in
November as it should, and later in
unexpected ways. Your love life heats
up in January. Leo and Gemini people
adore you. Your lucky numbers are:
27, 39, 12, 24 and 18.
WEEKEND LOVE FORECAST:
ARIES: Talk about yourself candidly. Your comfort level with who you
are is attractive. TAURUS: You’ll present yourself in a way that’s different
from the one you’d normally choose.
This is only the beginning of your next
evolution. GEMINI: You don’t have to
be someone else to fit in. Express your
unique perspective. It’s exactly what
the scene needs. CANCER: You’ll
protect the defenseless, balance the
energy of intense people and tend to
the lonely. LEO: The best thing you
can do on a date is relax. It puts the
other person at ease. VIRGO: You
appreciate beautiful people, but if
someone proves unkind or thoughtless, all beauty drains quickly from
view. LIBRA: You gain interest by
expressing yourself. You lose it in the
same way, though, if you’re not careful
to share the spotlight. SCORPIO: Your
praise and support is more of a special
gift than you might realize.
SAGITTARIUS: The one for you is an
honest person who isn’t out to fool
anyone (especially not himself or herself). CAPRICORN: A change of
scenery will make you feel in love
again. AQUARIUS: Insightful compliments will get you everywhere.
PISCES: The cross-pollination of two
parts of your life will result in a beautiful hybrid.
COUPLE OF THE WEEKEND:
The moon’s position in Aquarius and
the sun’s in Cancer highlight the attraction between these two signs. Cancer’s
emotional approach to life fits with
that free-spirited part of Aquarius,
resulting in a couple who can stay in
the moment together, open to what
love brings. Cancer gives Aquarius
creature comforts, while Aquarius
loves to share with Cancer the swirling
fun of Aquarius’ offbeat world.

helping her elderly mother
at the nursing home and
gets frustrated because
other residents don’t receive
as many visits from their
family members.
My 82-year-old mother is

young, widowed working
mother, living 700 miles
away. I am also an only
child. I do what I can for my
mom, calling several times a
week, sending cards, packages and flowers, and following up with the staff and
her medical providers to
ensure that she is well taken
care of. I visit when I can,
but it is an expensive flight

I wish I could visit more, but
that is not possible.

Bringing the heat
Bishop’s All-star pitcher Austin Bowlan had a 22-run lead after the first inning, but he pitched an
impressive shutout anyway in the 2015 Little League Tournament. Bishop plays their second
game tonight at 8 p.m. under the lights at owens Valley Career Development Field at Barlow
and Diaz on the Bishop Paiute Tribe Reservation. Kern Valley may have lost 36-0, but it’s a
double elimination tournament so they had a second chance to get a win last night against

Dealing with the heat
As soon as March arrives I
start to get worried because I
know it’s going to heat up and
we’ll be sweating to death for
the next six months. Drought
is wreaking havoc and it
doesn’t look like it will end
soon. As of June 11, 2015 the
Fish and Game Commission
has approved temporary emergency regulations; in a nutshell
it states that certain waters
may be closed if conditions get
bad enough and won’t be
reopened until all conditions
improve. You can go to the
department’s website to learn
more: www.wildlife.ca.gov/
Regulations.
Getting out and fishing the
cooler parts of the day like
early morning and late evening
is a good way to avoid the
heat. Many aquatic insects will
also choose to hatch during
these times for the same reason.
Dress appropriately, whether on the river or in the backcountry, to protect yourself
from the sun. There are a lot
of great fabrics available today
that make it easy to completely cover up and stay cool. The
sun reflects off the water so
Jarett Coons
CoLUMnisT
any part of you not covered is
at risk. I know that shorts
sound like a good idea when
it’s hot but they leave your
shins and legs prone to sunburn. Sunscreen on the ears,
nose and face is also a good
idea even if you have a hat –
again the sun reflects. It only
takes minutes to burn so protect yourself.
Drink lots of water. If you’re
like me it is easy to forget this.
Once I hit the river I don’t
think about anything but fishing. Make yourself drink even
if you don’t feel thirsty.
Dehydration can set in quickly
in the extreme temperatures.
If your favorite trout stream
is getting too warm to fish we
have many great warm-water
fisheries to choose from. Try
something new if you have
never caught a carp or bass on
the fly you are missing out on
a lot of fun. We have such a
wide variety of fishing there
are always options, don’t cancel a trip because your favorite
water isn’t fishing well.
If living here has taught me
anything it’s you have to roll
with the punches, the weather
is usually against you and you
are going to have to adapt, but
that doesn’t mean it can’t still
be fun.
The following sponsors
wish you a happy and safe
Fourth of July!
(Jarett Coons was born in
Bishop and spent the majority
of his life fishing and hunting
from Lone Pine to Bridgeport.
When his father took him to
Intake II, Coons got his first
trout on a dry fly, and he, too,
was hooked. In January 2010,
he started Sierra Mountain

on Intake II for his clients all

FISHING REPORT

FREE FISHING DAY JULY 4!
Hard to believe this weekend is the Fourth of July, but
with the run-off peaking, the
warm temps (maybe that
should be HOT temps) and the
cooling afternoon thunderboomers, summer has definitely
arrived. Oh, and we absolutely
cannot forget the skeeters –
once it warmed up, we never
got that cold weather to take
out the first batch of the humongous buggers – so be prepared.
The run-off is pretty much
kaput. The lake’s come up high
enough that the rock pile out in
front of the building became a
peninsula during Sunday night.
The lake should remain at its
current level for a few months,
but as the demand for water
continues, the lake will start
dropping (like normal) towards
the end of summer.
Catching slowed a bit this
past week – not sure if it was
the hot weather or the thunderboomers moving in, but it took
a bit of patience to get your
limit. None of the big fish from
Desert Spring Trout Farm came
out of the lake that we know of
(and we sure do appreciate a
photo op when we can get it).
You all know what usually
works out on the lake – at the
inlets it’s nightcrawlers, jigs
(Sierra Slammers), PowerBait or
Thomas Buoyants (we recommend the red and gold ones). If
you’re trolling, troll along the

PowerBait if you’re throwing
from shore. DFW brought us
another whopping load of fish
on Wednesday.
If you’re planning on releasing your catch, use barbless
hooks (or just crimp down the
barbs with pliers), avoid extensive handling, wet your hands,
net and other materials that
may come into contact with the
fish, NEVER TOUCH THE GILLS,
keep the fish fully submerged
and upright, allowing it to swim
away under its own power. If it’s
bleeding, you’re having fish for
dinner!

Should the All-Star Game
determine home-field in the
World Series?
Baseball’s annual All-Star
Game is just a couple of
weeks away and again this
year, the winning league will
have home-field advantage a
few months later in the World
Series. Since 2003, home-field
in the Fall Classic is based
solely on the winner of that
year’s All-Star Game, not
overall best record.
You can say that the
change has resulted in a more
competitive and somewhat
enjoyable Midsummer
Classic, despite the lack of
offense and the usual dominance of the pitching in a
game like this.
Former Commissioner Bud
Selig used to embrace the
idea with fervor: he maintained that players have a
greater incentive to come to
the game, cheer on their
teammates and truly care
about the result. Whereas, in
the past, when the All-Star
Game meant nothing, players
were more inclined to take
the three days off to rehab
injuries, rather than travel to
the All-Star Game.
But should three hours in
July determine which team is
awarded critical home-field
advantage in the World
Series? Former Atlanta Brave
and future Hall of Famer
Chipper Jones is quoted as
saying, “To be honest, the
players still treat it as an
exhibition game. If you want
to really ride everything on it,
take the nine best players
from each league and let
them go at it for nine innings.
Don’t give them an at-bat
here and an at-bat there,
because that doesn’t tell you
anything. If you want to put
Craig Jackson
sports Columnist
so much on one game, then
you have to have the elite of
the elite play all nine innings
and have your manager fill in
the cracks as you go.”
Interesting concept but never
will happen.
This all started in
Milwaukee at the All-Star
Game in 2002 when the game
ended in an 11-inning, 7-7 tie
because both teams ran out
of players and baseball immediately went into a full-scale
panic. They wanted the AllStar Game to have some
meaning in the future.
Last year the Kansas City
Royals had home-field advantage, and a better season
record, than the San
Francisco Giants but still lost
the World Series, four games
to three. This year, eight
Royals are on track to start at
the All-Star Game based on
fans voting as much as they
want online. With the All-Star
Game having so much meaning, should the players be
chosen this way?
Here’s a little info about
the 2015 All-Star Game on
Noticing the
completely obvious
Tuesday, July 14 at Great
America Ballpark in
Cincinnati: Omar Infante of
the Royals is hitting .204, has
the worst on-base-plus-slugging percentage, and could be
benched in favor of a prospect by the Royals. Yet currently, he would be the starting second baseman in the
Midsummer Classic. The
Royals haven’t had a starter
voted in by the fans since
2000; this year they have
eight.
Remember those good ol’
days of sitting in a ballpark
and taking a pen to poke
through five or 10 ballots,
stuffing the box for your
favorite players? Those days
are long gone. This is the first
year Major League Baseball
went to exclusively online
voting and the Royals, more
than any other team, have
pounced.
In baseball, teams play 162
games in the regular season
over six hot months and the
team that compiles the best
overall record should have
home-field advantage
throughout the playoffs. But
for one All-Star Game 13
years ago, and a commissioner bent on “improving” the
game, the best overall record
becomes somewhat irrelevant, and that’s a shame.

Inputting the updated
Major League Baseball standings once a week for The Inyo
Register’s National Sports
page is a litmus test for the
most obvious of trends.
Example: No need to
update the Cardinals’ loss
column, cause they haven’t
lost a game since the last
input a week ago?
– Center stage, spotlight,
hello gorgeous.
Example: The Reds have
an interesting rookie named
Michael Lorenzen who is 3-2
in his first 10 starts in the
majors?
– Will not appear on this
frequency.
Example: The American
League East is a logjam with
every team but the Red Sox
having taken at least a small
turn in first place?
– Extremely obvious when
cutting and pasting a new
team on top of the division
each week.
Example: Are Yasiel Puig’s
strikeouts coming because
he’s chasing the curveball?
– Deep question … don’t
look for the answer here.
But more obviousness?
The Nationals slowly but
surely rising to the top of the
NL East, and the fact that the
Mets had an awful hot start
but are looking firmly
wedged in second place now.
Louis Israel
sports Columnist
To make a wildcard run, the
Mets will need to make
moves to bolster the team at
the trade deadline, which is a
problem they should be
happy to finally have since
they haven’t been competitive
enough for the trade deadline
to matter to them in about 10
years.
The Dodgers and Giants,
battling in the standings, in
front of the rest far enough
that it figures that once again
one will be the division winner, the other in the wildcard.
It’s got to be frustrating for
the Dodgers, looking like the
best of the NL West every
year, and every year the
Giants last longer. Saying
“maybe this is their year” is
bordering on broken-record
status with these Dodgers,
but, the team is stacked
again, what the heck …
maybe this is their year.
It’s weird seeing the
Royals and the Astros on top
of their respective divisions.
Somehow, even with the
Tigers and Twins behind
them, the Royals seem like a
solid pick to hold first place
into the playoffs, whereas
everyone is just waiting for
the Astros to fall apart. It’s
probably unfair. If the Astros
are last season’s Royals,
they’ll make it to the series.
They have the starting pitching to be interesting come
playoff time either way. Or,
y’know, maybe they’ll go
27-53 after the All-Star break
and when you’re sitting down
with a bowl of nachos to
watch the Royals and the
Angels play in the ALCS,
someone will make an Astros
joke and their first-half run
won’t even be a footnote to
the 2015 season.

A Sporting View
A tradition unlike
any other
Fans of golf are familiar
with CBS broadcaster Jim
Nantz’s signature phrase
used to describe The Masters:
“A tradition unlike any
other.”
They may be less familiar
with the catchphrase
employed by members of the
FOX broadcast team, whose
coverage of the 2015 U.S.
Open at Chambers Bay was
universally panned. This is
because they don’t really have
one yet. This was, as most
viewers were painfully aware,
the network’s first stab at
covering a golf major, and it
was a very messy stab, the
kind that didn’t kill but left
the victim staggering in pain
for hours … kind of like the
way FOX made viewers wait
around to watch a minute’s
worth of a golfer waiting to
strike an approach shot. Here
are a few potential gems,
however:
“It is what it is.”
– Tom Weiskopf
“I never watch golf [on
TV].”
– Greg Norman
“It’s actually a tragedy.”
– Gary Player (from the
Golf Channel)
But don’t think that this
wasn’t a perfect follow-up to
The Masters. It was. The
Masters is where Americans
get it right and don’t complain. The U.S. Open was a
reflection of the rest of our
culture which, sorry to say, is
steeped heavily in the tradition of complaining about
things. We got our start complaining about taxes and the
price of tea, and today we
complain about taxes and the
prices at Starbucks.
The next tournament of
note will be in Great Britain.
They won’t complain about
course conditions in Scotland.
They won’t complain about
the food, they won’t complain
about anything – except the
foreigners. But they’ll manage
to carry on, just like they did
during the war.
When a Nazi bomb fell on
the course of the Richmond
Golf Club in Surrey, England,
during the Battle of Britain,
they didn’t complain about it
– they penalized themselves
one stroke if they had to play
another ball due to exploding
4. Shrapnel and/or bomb
splinters on the Fairways, or
in Bunkers within a club’s
length of a ball may be
moved without penalty, and
no penalty shall be incurred
if a ball is thereby caused to
move accidentally.

bombs. These were their
rules:
Richmond Golf Club,
Temporary Rules, 1940
1. Players are asked to collect Bomb and Shrapnel splinters to save these causing
damage to the mowing
machines.
2. In competitions, during
gunfire, or while bombs are
falling, players may take
cover without penalty for
ceasing play.
3. The positions of known
delayed-action bombs are
marked by red flags placed at
reasonably, but not guaranteed safe distance therefrom.
5. A ball moved by enemy
action may be replaced, or if
lost or destroyed, a ball may
be dropped not nearer the
hole without penalty.
6. A ball lying in a crater
may be lifted and dropped
not nearer the hole, preserving the line to the hole without penalty.
7. A player whose stroke is
affected by the simultaneous
explosion of a bomb may
play another ball from the
same place. Penalty, one
stroke.
If the Brits can deal with
bombs at home and carry on,
we can deal with Joe Buck at
a golf tournament … it’s not
nearly as bad as dealing with
our carry-on luggage. Now,
that’s something to complain
about.

Richmond Golf Club’s WWII special rules. The rules fall somewhere
between serious and a joke borne of dry English wit. Albeit somewhat of a joke, it was an important one. The rules may have been
a small form of British retaliation, declaring life as usual – even golf
games – would continue in spite of the bombs; in a way, stealing
away some of the terror of bombs by declaring the rules of traditional British sport more important than the tools of Nazi war.

Teenager to play teen in
movie – no, seriously
The sequel to “Guardians
of the Galaxy” officially has
a title. The movie, currently
planned for a May 5, 2017
release, will be called
“Guardians of the Galaxy
Vol. 2.” The title is obviously a play on Star-Lord’s mix
tapes from the first movie,
labeled “Awesome Mix Vol.
1” and “Awesome Mix Vol.
2” by his mother. While
“Guardians of the Galaxy
Vol. 2” is a cute title, it isn’t
very imaginative.
People on the Internet
have been guessing for
months that this would be
the title. I wish that Marvel
Studios would have gone in
a different direction, maybe
something a little more original and outside the box.
I’ve come up with four
unique sequel titles (and it
only took me three-and-ahalf minutes) that I think
will also speak to the spirit
of the Guardians’ franchise:
1) “Guardians of the Galaxy
II: The Legend of Groot’s
Gold”; 2) “Guardians of the
Galaxy 2: Electric Boogaloo”;
3) “Guardians of the Galaxy
Episode V: The Empire
Strikes Back”; and 4) “Eddie
and the Guardians of the
Galaxy II: Eddie Lives!” Now
these are movie titles! And
completely original, too.
Until Hollywood starts paying attention to me for its
own good, it looks like we’re
stuck with “Guardians of
the Galaxy Vol. 2.” Sigh …
Last week I informed y’all
about how Marvel Studios/
Sony Pictures has cast Tom
Holland as Peter Parker in
their upcoming joint venture, “Spiderman.”
Holland’s casting has now
come under fire.
Surprisingly it’s not because
he is too white and Britishlooking, which was my complaint, but because the
actor, at 19, is “too younglooking.” Apparently the
world isn’t ready for an
Jennifer ellis
CoLUMnIST
actual teenager to play a
teenager in a movie. That’s
a shame. And also stupid.
Perhaps the Internet would
be happier if Toby
“Imminent Ensure
Spokesman” Maguire took
on the role again.
We all knew that the new
movie would put Peter back
in high school because it
was guaranteed to infuriate
me. I’ve actually resigned
myself to another reboot.
Now the rest of the world
has to get on board. Marvel
Studios President Kevin
Feige has gone on the
record to defend Holland’s
casting. He said it was a
deliberate choice to go
young and that the new
movie will set itself apart
from the previous
Spiderman entries by focusing on the high school part
of Peter Parker’s life. To do
this they will take several
pages out of John Hughes’
playbook. Feige spoke to the
website “Birth.Movies.Death”
and said of the mastermind
of several ’80s teen classics,
that “we’re inspired by him,
and merging that with the
superhero genre in a way we
haven’t done before excites
us (...) Particularly at that
age, in high school, everything feels like life or death.
The tests feel like life or

When I first read that, I
thought it was the most
ridiculous thing I had come
into contact with in quite a
while. Feige had even used
the phrase “soap opera in
high school.” I hate young
people and I especially hate
how they are too into their
own drama to be worthwhile human beings.
However, I sat down and
thought it over. If the story
of Spiderman is a John
Hughes movie, then Harry
Osbourne would be Duckie
from “Pretty in Pink.” And
that makes so much sense
it’s almost scary.

The name Jack Hoxie probably means little to you other
than he has some relatives living in Bishop today. Tom Mix
or Hoot Gibson could sound
more familiar to you than
Hoxie. Yet, Jack Hoxie worked
in our area in at least 14 pictures and possibly more.
He was known by lots of
people here and he left as a
gift a set of spurs with Russ
Spainhower’s family. They
remain today cherished artifacts to the family that played
such an ongoing part in our
film industry. He also has pictures in the family album, and
when I was speaking with
Russ’ daughter Joy Anderson
about her memories of Jack
and his then-wife Marin Sais,
her memories were vivid even
though she had forgotten the
title of the film.
Because some of his story
is lost in the shadows of the
past, we can only speculate. At
this time, we only know of two
of the films Jack Hoxie made
here as existing. One was only
found in a copy made for
home use a few years ago. It
was on eBay of course.
That being said, we do have
lots of stills from his pictures.
Just as few days ago I was
able to purchase nearly 20
from eBay for “The Red Rider”
(1925), which prove conclusively, they worked here. The
Eastern California Museum
has photos of some film
shooting at Diaz Lake and
these confirm was jack Hoxie
and wife Marin Sais in this
film. More about that in the
next column.
While the legend has Hoxie
being born in Indian Territory
(now Oklahoma), slowly consensus is forming around a
birth date of Jan. 11, 1888 in
Kansas. True, where he was
born is not far from Indian
Territory. Jack’s father was
killed by a bronc, decapitated
actually the legend says. His
mother Matilda was Nez Pierce
and she took her family back
to Idaho, where during a terrible winter they lost much of
their stock. Matilda had married a stern and unbending
German immigrant and had
five children before she left
him. Jack hated Scott Stone
and went to town when his
stepdad sold the ranch.
Soon Jack was honing his
cowboy skills and he signed
on with the Dick Stanley Wild
West Show. Jack had married a
Silent film actor Jack Hoxie
worked in Inyo County and the
Eastern Sierra in at least 14 pictures and possibly more.

young girl previously and that
had not worked out. While in
the show he met and married
Hazel Panky, one of the
female trick riders. They had a
daughter and the couple
became stars of the show. As
was not uncommon for other
silent cowboy actors, Jack
signed on with Pathe pictures
and made several pictures but
no record exists of which ones
and how many.
Eventually he signed on
with Universal and it was in
one that he met Marin Sais as
his co-star. Jack was the marrying kind so he divorced
Hazel Panky and married Sais.
Buck Rainer in his encyclopedic book “The Strong Silent
Type” wrote, “The marriage
with Marin Sais was a good
one in many respects and
Marin gave Jack the polish he
might have had, a thin veneer
at best.”
His career continued to
progress and in 1922 he
signed on with Ben Wilson/
Arrow and made “Cyclone
Bliss” (1923), most likely in
the Victorville area. The Lone
Pine Museum of Western Film
History has a three-sheet on
display for this film at this
time. It was in 1922 that Jack
Hoxie signed with Universal.
That led to a series of pictures, many of which used
local locations including Death
Valley and the Eastern Sierra
as well as Lone Pine’s Alabama
Hills.
Rainey enthuses, “Tall, stalwart, handsome, a fearless
rider and a matchless roper
and rifleman, Jack Hoxie, as
he thundered across the
screen in the Universal
Westerns of 1923-1927, might
have ridden straight out of the
past. In a thousand theatres in
a thousand towns Jack Hoxie
and his horse Scout and his
dog Bunkie provided thrill
after thrill for audiences
throughout rural America,
making the old West come
alive again for the price of a
dime or a quarter.”
Evidence points to one of
these films, “Riders of the
Law,” perhaps being made
locally, but we know that “Men
in the Raw (1923), “The Back
Trail” (1924), “Daring
Chances” (1924), “The Red
Warning” (1924),” Fighting
Fury” (1924) and “Man From
Wyoming” (1924) were. From a
Universal newsletter we know
that “The Red Warning” and
“Man From Wyoming” were
made together, a not uncommon economy, shot in Death
Valley, Lone Pine and then farther north, perhaps in
Wyoming.
“Men/Raw” has teller of
wild stories played by Jack
Hoxie. His tales were usually
about his personal exploits.
These were told to other cowpokes as they sat around the
campfire in the evening.
Finally Windy is given the
opportunity to prove himself
when Bill Spray (Sid Jordan)
and his gang decide they will
steal a gold claim belonging to
the father of Windy’s sweetheart, Eunice Hollis, played by
Marguerite Clayton.
“The Back Trail,” one of the
two silent Hoxies that still
known to survive, will be
where we start next time.
Sadly few of Jack Hoxie’s
silent films are known to exist.
First they were made on
nitrate and when MCA took
over Universal in the late
1940s, they were deteriorating
quickly. Then some of the
nitrate exploded and burned
down a shed in which they
were stored. It would have
taken a lot of money to
restore them and the executives saw little return in revenue once that had done it. The
executives gave the order:
either transfer it or destroy it.
MCA had stretched itself
financially so the order was
given and all the film was
destroyed. It constituted most
of Hoxie’s lifetime of work,
which by all accounts was of
high quality by Western criteria.

Bob at the Movies
Less teddy bear, more Henry winkler
‘Ted 2’
Seth MacFarlane is quickly
losing his clout in the entertainment industry. “The
Cleveland Show” has been
cancelled, “American Dad”
has been bumped from a
major network to basic cable,
he bombed as an Oscars
host, and as for his last
movie, “A Million Ways to Die
in the West,” he was lucky
there was a “Transformers”
movie to soak up the title of
Worst Movie of the Year.
Now he’s returning to “Ted”
as writer, director and star to
see if there’s any life left in
that franchise. I’d say there
wasn’t much life in it in the
first place.
The film once again follows sentient teddy bear Ted
(MacFarlane) as he gets married to his girlfriend TamiLynn (Jessica Barth), tries to
adopt a child to clear up
their relationship troubles,
and is forced to fight a court
battle to prove that he’s a
person and not a thing. He’s
aided by his human best
friend John (Mark Wahlberg),
who pursues a relationship
with Ted’s lawyer (Amanda
Seyfried). The movie completely negates John’s relationship with the Mila Kunis
character from the first
movie, which seems like a
heartless move at first, but
turns out to be an upgrade

as the game Seyfried character is much more likeable.
The biggest problem with
the film, as with the first, is
that it relies too much on the
novelty of a swearing, smoking, bad-mannered teddy
bear to carry it to a nearly
two-hour running time. Ted
jokes fall into two categories:
vulgarity for the sake of vulgarity, and unfunny deliberate jokes that, coming from a
teddy bear, are supposed to
be automatically punched up.
There isn’t enough funny Ted
material to carry a half-hour
TV show, let alone a movie,
and definitely not two. I
wouldn’t even say that Ted
alone is funny enough to
carry a second one of those
red band trailers that I
watched over and over again
with the first movie.
Something I’ve noticed
with MacFarlane’s projects is
that he’s really bad at ending
scenes, which badly affects
the story’s pacing, and it’s
apparent here too. Most of
the scenes in this movie
either trail off or end with a
cheap laugh. “Family Guy”
has a notoriously painful
running gag about lazily ending scenes by abruptly cutting to Conway Twitty performances. The equivalent in
this movie has to do with
Google searches gone wrong.
It’s funny the first time, less
funny the next few times,
and then you actually look
forward to it because at least
it means the movie is finally
about to move on.
The movie does do some
things right. I’ll bashfully
admit that I laughed at a
fight between Ted and TamiLynn and a detour involving
Tom Brady. There are some
left-field gags that work, like
a surprise celebrity in a
supermarket who wants to
know how seriously Trix
takes its “for kids” policy.
What made me laugh the
hardest was a climatic chase
and fight sequence at a New
York City venue where I once
met Henry Winkler (he’s a
great guy!). The only problem
is that the sequence is over
too quickly. All the scenes in
this movie that drag on forever and the one I like feels
rushed. It also left a bad
taste in my mouth because it
ends with a character making
an important sacrifice, but
it’s the wrong character.
From what I’ve heard from
other critics, “Ted 2” seems
to have a spot already
reserved in the Unfunny
Comedy Sequel Hall of Fame.
I actually think it’s funnier
than the overrated original,
but that’s in a strictly relative
sense. If you only take two
things away from this review,
remember that I don’t think
that the crude little teddy
bear is funny for more than
five minutes at a time and
that Henry Winkler is awesome. He’s not in this movie,
I’m just saying so on an
unrelated note.
Two Popcorn Boxes out of
Five.
“Ted 2” is rated R for
crude and sexual content,
pervasive language, and
some drug use. Its running
time is 115 minutes.
