What? No discussion about Eric Brandt's ex-"fiancee" forging a Steadman's check? I am so disappointed in all of you.

WTF??!! Has everyone in Miles City been to prison? I shot a man in Reno just to watch him die.

That post always makes me laugh.

Really? I would think it hard to post strawman arguments about one's criminal past.

Well, that's where you are incorrect.

Rickenhawk would go with the moral equivalence argument. You know, having impure thoughts = forging a check (ALLEGEDLY) = murder in the eyes of God. We're all sinners. Something like that.

I heard once that Eric was gay. Is it just me, or does Brian sound like a scorned lover? First Eric walks on water, then he is evil incarnate, then he's just a victim of wanting to help everyone, and now he's back to being the devil again. I've seen scorned lovers before and this is not healthy.

OMG I never knew there was so much fun in Mc.com history! (still mother-cancer lady posts, and subsequent posts, take the cake in my book.)

Oh Gunnar, I don't think of myself as a skanky ho and neither do my friends and family. The only good thing that came from nothing is those two left town.

I'm happy Gunnar called you a skanky ho. It validates my use of the phrase on, well, anyone X/

Alice and Eric broke up??? If those two crazy kids couldn't make it, what hope is there for the rest of us? And what about the baby...

Rick is an expert in ALL forms of logical fallacy. He prefers the strawman however, probably because he's lazy that way.

Why keep wallowing in this? Eric Brandt and Alice Maloney are horrible people. They screwed many people, and maliciously slandered others.

Is there some kind of enlightenment to be found in celebrating what was only a matter of course anyway? Eric and Alice will eventually make a bed big enough that they will have to permanently lie in it.

And as long as that bed is very far away from myself, and those I hold dear, I'm happy.

I got suckered in to their line, and paid for it heavily. I lost a marriage, two jobs, and my home. But I still don't see the point in reveling in their stupidity, or propagating their lies.

MOVE ON (Brian).

And the circle of sock puppetry is now complete. Well, almost. Perhaps Major Pain will be joining us as well?

LOL Bridger! Too true!
Major Pain is Brian's Stepdad.
And I was a total puppet.

I miss Buck Showalter, horse's ass that he was.

Eh, I think we've come to the point where we can just go ahead and redefine 'strawman' as 'anything Rick says' since that's the only way the mc.com definition of usage stays coherent.

But as a policy, I try to stay out of most things local. Not worth the headache.

Gunnar said: ".....you sure looked like a horse's ass."

Like the combined hindquarters of Mr. Ed, Flicka, Hidalgo, and the entire Budweiser Clydesdale team put together.


Gunnar also said: "Hopefully you have gained some wisdom in the past 2 years."

Yeah, I sure hope I have too.

Smiley: That truly was one of Eric's greatest works.

Buck has been doing double duty on ESPN lately. Meanwhile, LG is busy manufacturing TVs. I just got a slap on the wrist for the Reno thing.

wow! lol! You guys are very entertaining!

I must add an addendum. "You would have to be insane to do that in Wyoming!" That state is kind of like Texas, but with more money and more jail space than they know what to do with.

I'm embarrassed to see my post defending Mr. B. in that old thread. Oh well, at least I took him on later in a different one.

Perhaps we are all guilty of putting our faith in someone who let us down at one point in time or another. I'm sure the people who supported George Alan Rekers, Marion Barry and/or Roger Clemens get embarrassed when reminded, "Oh hey, remember when you supported/defended that guy, and he turned out to be a (insert favorite euphemisms for hypocritical gay men/coke-heads/steroid users)?"

What happened to your comic page? I remember checking it out occasionally.

"What the ...?" I think it was something like that.

I agree with Wendy.

Frank: I was doing the comic for a few months, until I realized I was motivated by anger, not enjoyment. When I stopped being angry, I had no more inspiration.

Plus, by that time I was becoming distracted by a beautiful Russian woman...

Webmaster! How about some amnesty for Buck?

Wonder on what planet he is living these days?

Curiosity had me wondering this as well....so, with the power of Google, we find that Eric is an editorial writer for the Greeley (CO) Tribune:

http://www.greeleytribune.../912099971

Any surprise that Eric hates Christmas?

This is my favorite:

Eric Brandt of Greeley is a Colorado native, a submarine veteran and an electronics technician by trade. He is studying at Aims Community College for a degree in nursing following technical-field layoffs.

Technical field layoffs! A victim of the economic downturn!

The comments are pretty good as well. I mean, they're not up to mc.com standards, but not bad for amateurs.

NURSING! Jesus Christ! Somebody should tell the Colorado Board of Nursing before he takes his licensing exams.

Amazing how often crooks and con men land on their feet, isn't it? Depressing, too.

BREAKING NEWS! The Greeley Tribune hard-hitting news reporter EB was able to get hold of the check that Ms. Maloney forged.

oh, Brian - I so miss having you around. Love your humor! Thanks.

Does anyone have a special cleaning solution for removing coffee from a keyboard? I know this may not be anything special, but I probably should add I blew it out my nose.

Ditto Devon ~ only for wine

Smiley: How on earth do I not know you? (or..do I..?)

Kduff? What do you mean? On here or in real life?

I'm not a good person to get to know personally, ask josh lol, I smell like pizza almost always, and I wear freaky makeup, and I apparently look like a "transvesdyke" when I wear none.... lol

FYI, Buck has his posting privileges reinstated. I guess it is up to him to decide if he wants to visit this site again or post or not. He's probably pretty pissed (above the norm).

Poison: I thought it was twins and didn't she lose them. I didn't look back but I remember something about her being pregnant with twins and she had a broken leg. Somebody was mad because they parked the car in someone's way. Those were the best MC.com days. I want to hear her side of the story

Jody: You are correct, it was twins, and yes, they were lost.

[This message has been edited by Brian (7/21/2010)]

Also, I don't think we'll be hearing her "side" of things unless 1) Eric poses as Alice again or 2) they allow internet access in prison. Word around the campfire is that she's already under investigation for identity theft, but you know how campfire stories go.

I just hope they lock her up for a really long time for everything she has done to several people. That would make me happy.
Brian, i had to show the other half the check, i don't think she has ever laughed so hard in her life.

OH MY GOD ! you all need a life of your own .

We have a life and it is mocking morans. We enjoy it and, I am proud to say, have raised mocking morans to a high art.

If you don't want to be mocked, don't be a moran!

Very well stated, Amorette.

Ron h: it seems that, in my experience anyhow, the people that say things like "you need a life" or "wow, you sure duz gotz you too much time on them thair hands of yerz" are themselves usually deprived of a meaningful/enriching existence, and generally fill the void by going around telling other people that they "need a life." But I am sure you are the exception to that.

since I don't post much I must have a life! LOL! way to go Brian!

Sorry Amorette...its spelled m o r O n s...just trying to help out!

I'm pretty sure it's spelled with an 'a'...

It's a long story, sdrew, but don't feel too bad... you're not the first one to misunderstand.

Hello Everybody here in regards to the Alice Maloney case!

I live in Colorado and have come across these folks. I am slowly learning of the past situations. I am a business owner in need of some more detailed info.

Would anybody on here that knew much of the details be willing to speak to me?

Very concerned business owner in Colorado.

Thank you.

Well, for starters, I wouldn't take any checks...

Well, it looks like Eric Brandt has officially gone off the deep end.



https://www.westword.com/...e-11056416

I think I have already figured that part out and much more. The purpose of this outreach to learn some more things about her. A post on here mentioned something about her fake cancer in which rang a bell. With that said, I suspect she has not learned any lessons from being in prison. I also suspect there may be mental issues. I am looking to see if anybody here can direct me in the right direction to speak to somebody indirectly. (No names mentioned). I am a business owner who just bought another company and she currently works there but something does not feel right.

Oy vey!

Heeeere's Johnny!

To think he aspired to be a Miles City councilman. Lo, how the mighty have fallen.
