Glancing at some Tuesday morning headlines as we predict major renovations soon.  comment » 

Teens stopped, detained at drunk driver checkpoint. Perfume. Yeah, that'll fool those cops.  comment » 

Local officials push for N.C. 105 improvements. Among the ideas - 'The intersection with Poplar Hill Road would be blocked to eliminate left turns across traffic in the four-lane section' and 'much of the middle or fifth lane would be filled in as either a concrete or grass median, which would increase traffic flow by reducing the number of merging vehicles.'  comment » 

Crack Whore. So now oil is synonymous with illegal, destructive street drug. (We're still waiting for those windmill powered cars)  comment » 

McCrory: Offshore drilling a NIMBY issue? 'The Charlotte mayor said that anyone who drives daily and opposes drilling is "hypocritical."' (Now you don't expect logic from anti-oil forces, do you?)  comment » 

Report: Offshore drilling won't help soon. Neither will building a bunch of windmills and solar panels. (But that doesn't mean you shouldn't start today)  comment » 

N.C. drought status worse now than a year ago. 'Rainfall in late May and through this month has been below normal which means streams and groundwater conditions are not at the rates to keep reservoirs full. ' (Think rain)  comment » 

Trips by Easley's wife cost N.C. $109,000. Easley's tenure looks to end on a big down note. (The love affair is finally over)  comment » 

DMV to mail driver’s licenses. Think of it as Netflix but with three times the wait.  comment » 

The saddest thing about Barack Obama's available military expertise... 'is that though he has Wes Clark in his corner, the only person he knows with the experience of getting a bomb on target is Bill Ayers.' (OUCH!)  comment » 

How would you spend that SoCon money. Heck, have it at Tweetsie.  comment » 

Just when you thought it was safe to return to the Dirty ‘Nooga. 'Time to add one more item to the to-do list - pack some heat. That, or some quality Kevlar. Judge's orders.'
