Online headline: "Team Obama Makes Bold Move On Primary Day" -- "Team Obama"? Since when is there an "I" in 'team'?

I'm curious... has anyone even digested where a high speed rail terminal would be located, where parking would be, how long it would take to construct, how disruptive the construction would be for automotive traffic,or how disruptive regularly schedule departures/arrivals would be to daily traffic, or even how disruptive such a venture would be to residential areas?

From L-E update on Carver High School construction: "Freeman & Associates and Balfour Beatty Construction are partners in putting together the 225,000-square-foot, 67 instructional unit facility capable of serving 1,250 students." -- Serving 1,250 students? Just a month or so ago, when new classifications were announced for athletics, Carver was listed as having only 740 students. Where are 510 more students coming from, and at the expense of which other high schools?

Online story: " Beyonce’s daughter Blue Ivy is only a few days old, but she already has over a million dollars worth of toys. Seriously. B and J spent over $1.5 million dollars on various toys, equipment and Swarvoski studded high chairs for their precious new daughter. Yes, blinged out high chairs!" -- Oh, in addition to spending $1.3 Million to keep other mothers and their babies off the same hospital floor when Beyonce was there. Seems Occupy Wall Streeters would have lived better occupying Blue Ivy's parents home.

L-E headline: "Councilors propose fining residents $100 for not spaying, neutering pets" -- Who's Council going to hire to 'check things out'...dropouts from TSA school?
---
L-E story: "Blue-collar comedy star Jeff Foxworthy perpetually has preserved 1,000 acres up by Blue Springs. * Property owners granting conservation easements don’t relinquish possession of their land; they agree to preserve it in its current state. * In return they get the benefit of certain tax breaks." -- Uh-huh...so much for celebrity liberal rich wanting to voluntarily pay more in taxes.
---
The only reason the BCS is talking about format changes is because one conference got both shares of the Championship game revenues.
---
Online quote source: "When you help someone up a hill, you're that much nearer the top yourself." - Anonymous" -- Obviously no one from the DIM&DUMBERat Party ever has thought, much less, voiced or penned such a thought. It would be blasphemous to D&D principles of class suppression.
---
It's sorta strange that Council wants to put Sunday alcohol sales on the ballot, but wouldn't change the laws so ladies' groups could have a private luncheon with wine during the week.
---
Saw another article on the Taliban opening an office in Afghanistan for negotiation purposes. Does the Taliban Headquarters have a car dealership there?
---
If Tim Tebow were Muslim, even atheist, the mainstream media would be praising the diversity he brings to the game.
---
Online headline: "Maker Of Wonder Bread, Twinkies Prepares To Refile For Chapter 11" -- Oooops, my bad, thought some DIM&DUMBERat Campaign strategist was bowing out of politics.
---
Speaking of Twinkies becoming extinct...The good news is that you can go out and buy a lifetime's supply and never worry about the preservatives shelf life expiring.

No wonder this administration is in such trouble like the post office. Last Thursday, a small, lightweight package was sent via "priority mail" to our home from Atlanta. We received it on Monday. Guess the O'Blather Administration and the Post Office could unite behind a single creed (and save some tax dollars) such as "When it comes to delivering a promise, we don't".
