Five people, places and things we really ain’t digging today.
• County leaders accused of wasteful spending. One example of this was, according to a bulletin released by County Manager Harry Jones, the $100,000 spent on food for a two-day county commissioner retreat. What the fuck were they eating? Next time I’d suggest buying something from the value menu.
• Hey congrats to Miss North Carolina Kristen Dalton for being crowned Miss USA, but Miss California gets on the wack list for her anti-gay comments.
• The aluminum company Alcoa
• The CIA
• But who’s the wackest mofo of all?! The … (I can’t even think of an insult fitting for this) … dude who tried to SELL his daughter — who just happened to be an actor in the Oscar-winning film Slumdog Millionaire

It as 10,000 dollars not 100,000. It is still tons of money depending on how many people were fed.
Leave it to the Wack list to promote a wack idea. Marriage is between a man and a woman. A civil union is between a man and a man. We do not let men use the women’s bathroom so why is it that gays want to use the wrong place? Opps maybe thats not the best analogy hehe, crap I said anal, crap I said crap. Being denied the use of a label is not a civil rights issue. Maybe the church should take out a patent on the logo MARRIAGE.
If Alcoa built the dam then they should be able to run it. If the state wants to cough up a billion dollars or so to buy it from Alcoa then fine but until the buzz off greedy state.
Did we get any useful information, f not what’s the big deal? They should be thankful they were not executed on the field of battle.
The selling of the girl was the only wack worthy item here today. After seeing India first hand, I can understand why they might try this. Its wrong to sell your daughter but its wrong to starve also. All three involved might have been better off if this were a deal that went thru. The father would not be poor anymore. Very few things would be worse than the poverty in India. If she was sold to a caring person then it would be a win for all but this is a big if. It worked for Madonna and Jolie right?
