Another, now attributed to ISIS, truck attack of pedestrians/bikers happened in NYC yesterday. There was a time this could not have happened, but NYC has built so many bicycle/pedestrian lanes by forbidding cars et al that now there are no traffic jams to block suicide drivers from getting at people.

Random Thought: From the "half a brain?" department WTVM 9 headline/story: "Doctors prepare for deep dive into Las Vegas shooter's brain * Scientists are preparing to do a microscopic study of the Las Vegas gunman's brain, but whatever they find, if anything, likely won't be what led him to kill 58 people in the worst mass shooting in modern U.S. history, experts said. * Stephen Paddock's brain is being sent to Stanford University for a months-long examination after a visual inspection during an autopsy found no abnormalities, Las Vegas authorities said." -- Good grief.. not one dead person will be resurrected, not one victim will get relief or understanding from any findings.. No, this is just another futile effort in "government trying to help" while in actuality, it's just another wasteful spending action.

Why has the death sentence being sought, issued, and carried out become such a pariah? When a farmer removes weeds from his fields, he destroys them with fire, not returning them to the fields where they flourished once before.

You know, the basic crimes Mueller got Grand Jury verdicts on were built around "lying  to the FBI"..I'm guessing to get the Grand Jury to bring back "True Bills" for lying, then Mueller must have presented  evidence via video or documented interview transcripts.  Doesn't that make Comey's assertion ludicrous that no such procedure was followed when Hellary was questioned?

Some one was arrested for buying  food at McDonald's  with "funny money".. when you really look closer,  was their actually a crime committed or was just a "barter" deal..some "cardboard cash" for a " cardboard taste"?

Online story: " Gov. Nathan Deal announced Monday morning that Georgia has been named the No. 1 state in the nation in which to do business for the fifth consecutive year by Site Selection, a leading economic development trade magazine. According to Site Selection, Georgia is the first state to hold this ranking for five consecutive years under the same governor." -- Hmmm... maybe the fact that Muscogee County voted for Jason Carter OVER Gov Deal plays a part in Muscogee County's economic ills under Mayor Tom-LYING-son's realm.

Utterly misinformed, LIV's L-E "soundoff": "He cites it — maybe he should read it To the Alabamian who thinks our civilization was founded on the Ten Commandments and Christianity, read your Bible and a history book. Jesus was a Jew. Try the Beatitudes, and share them with Roy Moore." -- Yes Jesus was a Jew... Jesus is the Christ.. therefore the inspiration for CHRISTians.

L-E headline/story: "Judge changes fines on common traffic violations * “This court’s job is not to be a revenue source for the city,” Hunter said. “... With regard to that issue, you should never look at Recorder’s Court as a revenue source, but rather a place where people can come to present their case.”" -- Judge Hunter is right.. but that does not change the dangers of those who run red-lights..One of the reasons this is a problem is the inconsistency of the timing sequences of traffic signal lights.. Perhaps a "strobe" light flashing in the last 2-seconds of a "green light" would prepare drivers to be anticipating an upcoming stop. perhaps varying the length of time the "yellow" command based on the posted speed limit at the light, and one of the obvious aids would be with the "walk/don't walk" signals.. some hit "zero", and the light change is initiated immediately, and some "walk/don't walk" signals hit "zero" and there is a variable delay before the light sequence is initiated. The Traffic Engineer should be responsible for making out multi-million dollar traffic signal system consistent everywhere in town.

L-E headline/story: "Tax assessors request funding for additional workers * “... Because of this historic number of appeals, we directed and dedicated all of our resources to processing and reviewing those appeals,” said Deputy Chief Appraiser John Williams, addressing councilors during a consent agenda/work session. “... As you would imagine, that four months of allocating all our resources to appeals has caused our normal workload not to be accomplished." -- Good grief! The Tax Assessors could have avoided this "snafu" simply by adopting the 2016 assessment values which would have given them and home/business owners more time to prepare/research the chaos presented on short notice (June 1st - August 14th).. Now the real question is whether "more" or "BETTER" employees is the answer.

L-E "head-LIE": "HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL * Two local teams receive votes in Week 12 polls" -- Good grief.. Manchester and Marion County may be "area" teams, but no way should they be considered "local". This "story" definitely needs to be addressed in the L-E "corrections" section.
