Kudos to Arkansas Officials!“Arkansas House Chief of Staff Bill Stovall says top officials in the chamber won't commute any more in state vehicles.”
How exciting! The decision was evidently made because of the latest brouhahas with the AGFC and AHD.
There are only four vehicles in the mix here but this is a wonderful step in the RIGHT direction. Voters should be flooding the office of Mr. Stovall with affirming phone calls, emails and even perhaps a fruit basket!
Thank You Bill for making one of the first steps of the new session in Arkansas politics to help Arkansas government become more fiscally responsible!
Frogger gets gigged
If you are going to emulate video GAMES in real life, make sure you are fully prepared for the consequences. In South Carolina a 23-year-old BOY decided to realize his lifelong dream of becoming the star of Frogger. He soon found out his dodging skills where not up to par when a SUV squashed him.
The friends that he had discussed his delusion with earlier were shocked because he was so good at the virtual game. They believed that the SUV driver must have done something wrong. Congress is now looking into the situation and considering legislation to prohibiting SUV’s from driving on four lane highways.
All participants are resting well today.
Charles rangels in funds
You really can’t make this stuff up. Rep. Charles B. Rangel is now imploring the American people to help support his legal defense fund.
After 40 years of pilfering and unethical shenanigans in the House he has established a new defense fund to help pay off past legal expenses and to deal with pending and new complaints.
Three hundred thirty three US House members voted to censure Rangel (D-N.Y.) while 79 sided with the self indulgent, degenerate public servant.
Up, Up and Stay Home
Arkansans are use to a dip in fuel prices this time of year, but as has been discussed time and time again, times are a changing.
Across the nation prices have risen on average 37 cents in the past quarter reaching $3.05
Here in the “Natural State” the average price per gallon has soared nearly 25 cents in the past month, reaching $2.93, the highest in well over 2 years and 44cents since September.
Once Again Big Brother is Poking His Nose In
The SEC is expressing great interest in Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and Zynga concerning information related to trading activity, according to a report from Dealbook.
This is the story Microsoft faced in 1985. Bill Gates ultimately agreed to an IPO after the strong arming of the SEC.
