First we hear potUS O'Blather has misquoted the Bible, and now we hear that a California Atheist group have made up a quote suggesting Thomas Jefferson was one of them. Guess there IS something in the waters between Hawaii and California...

I'll tell you what, Congress needs to scrap the trial of Roger Clemens for lying to Congress until Congress goes after US AG Eric Holder for the same thing.

Online headline: "Average Student Debt Hits Record High in 2010: $25,250" -- Just goes to show how ill prepared the average high school graduate is in understanding finances, and how susceptible these grads are to being swayed into loans for degrees that are easy to get but no guarantee of getting a job that can give them a salary that will pay off the loans in a reasonable time.

Occupy Atlanta needs to focus on what it is it's protesting about. Because of the changes in HOPE scholarships, the GA legislature ponied up a $10,000,000.00 'loan pool' for students. Students have asked for $26,000,000.00 worth. What the legislature needs to do is cut college/university expenses. Look locally; Dr Mescon is paid $300,000.00 to rule over 8,000 +/- students who actually want to be in school. On the other hand, Dr Andrews of the MCSD rules over 32,000 student who may or may not have any interest at being at school except for social interests, and she's paid less than $200,000.00.

Have you ever thought about how appropriate Dr Mescon's name is for him. From what we've seen and heard, he's made quite a 'Mess' and pretty much a 'conman'.

There's actually a story in the L-E about the U of Alabama being in the "Top 10" schools reguarding male physical fitness; no mention at all about their mental fitness. I thought students went to college to get an academic education, not a lifestyle. Guess this explains the spa on the CSU campus better than logic does. Writers note: From being in the center of the CSU River Campus daily, it's obvious that the male students in the Music School do not use the main campus spa facility.

Online headline: "Catholic Newspaper Apologizes For Column Suggesting Same-Sex Attraction Devil's Work" -- How does the Catholic Newspaper reject Genesis and Acts? Has the Pope signed off on this?

The followin 'ad' is in the Ledger-Enquirer - "On today's calendar": Club Fountain City: The party starts at 9:30 at the Columbus Trade Center. The karaoke night features cash prizes, a cash bar and entertainment from Foxie 105's DJ Chip. Free. -- How is this permitable under local and Georgia law? This constitutes a pop-up nightclub, and no private venue can do this. If it's legal to do it at the Trade Center, then it should be legal to do anywhere.
