He said the team may return next year in a different role as they reassess their festival presence. Cowboy State Daily
- ➤ In the late 1800s, Bill Nye, a well-known humorist from Laramie, named his newspaper and mine after his orphan mule Boomerang because the animal brought him luck and inspired his work.

GOVERNMENT NEWS
- ➤ Cassie Craven, a University of Wyoming College of Law graduate, criticized Wyoming’s habitual offender law—designed to punish those with two or more felony convictions—by stating that the law’s roots in discredited eugenic thinking and its harsh, mandatory sentences leave defendants with little chance for a fair trial.
