Son of Billionaire Charged With Burglary
By STEPHANIE REITZ
Associated Press Writer

June 16, 2006, 7:21 PM EDT

CORNWALL, Conn. -- The son of billionaire oil tycoon T. Boone Pickens was charged with burglary after he was found hiding under a desk in a fly fishing shop, authorities said.

Michael Pickens, 51, of Nocona, Texas, spent three days in jail following his arraignment Monday in Bantam Superior Court.

He was found Sunday inside the Housatonic Meadows Fly Shop after the store's manager noticed something wrong and called police, according to state police.

Pickens had stopped in at the store earlier in the day, chatting about football and portraying himself as a high-powered stockbroker on a fishing vacation, the store's manager Devin "Moe" Booth said Friday.

3. Minus $3 million, how big would the Swifties have become?
Did Pickens make the '04 election close enough for the dirty shit in RFK Jr's Rolling Stone article to function properly?

7. T. Boone is a real sweetheart
Right now, he's trying gains the rights to sell the water in the Oglala Aquifer - away from the people that live on top of it.

Yep, T. Boone. Swift Boat Liar extraordinaire. He's also near the top of the list of most money donated to political interests for an individual:
