Poverty Rate Hits 14.3% (‘09 Figures) Highest Since ‘94
Like I said on the radio station this morning (WZAX 99.3). You can not SPEND a billion dollars per month, month after month—year after year and expect Obama to fix it in 2 years. But, this isn’t about Obama, or finding fault. Not, in this post anyway. I want you to look at the picture…

I Co-Hosted Jammin’ 99.3 This Morning: Robert Draper Called-in to Respond to Criticism Over GQ Article and Manley Comments. Snap Shot: Draper Dug A Deep Hole!
Quick Notes: Alan Gurganus author of “The Oldest Living Confederate Widow Tells All” put Robert Draper onto this Rocky Mount story. Apparently, the two (Draper & Gurganus) are friends and were talking about the Murdered and Missing Women.

Best Buy CEO, Brian Dunn, Started as Sales Associate
Interesting story from a rags to riches standpoint, but read what Dunn sees for the future of technology. I truly believe, that in 5 years—or sooner, TV will be transformed into something unbelievable. Everything will be a “niche” market.

Memorial Day Hoot(ers). What’s the difference between these two pictures…if anything?

Western Half of North Carolina are getting fighting mad that electric rates are going up…well, Welcome to the Club friends.
Funny I didn’t see a hell of a lot of chanting from them when our rates hit the roof over here in in eastern NC. Maybe that’s because there has always been the perception of “we know how to manage our stuff better with nuclear.” At least that what one NC Rep told me 2…
