OK, maybe it really was a heart attack this time.

According to Phil Rolen's old pastor, he and his wife were on a mission trip in Cambodia when he died.

Oh! You can dig up dirt so fast?

This is much slower

... but the mug shots are a delight - Bowie, Janis Joplin and so on (enough to keep a bored browser happy for hours)

Slightly fogged film and/or tired chemicals makes the viewer immediately think
of a much earlier era of photography.

At 34 years of age, I doubt the deceased had ever heard of Janis Joplin.

PLEASE, try to stay on topic.

To be fair, just at the start of the month when we had a specific thread, asking if we should remain on topic on threads, I think I was the only one who said Yes.

Everybody else agreed that it was fine to let the "conversation" wander as people saw fit

Looks like Phil Rolen was a Trump supporter:

Or is that a common name in Texas?
