From Daily Thoughts. From a Survey USA poll. I wonder how this will change with the addition of the overseas ballots from our folks in Uniform? Lots of bases in NC and deployed troops from NC.

The Raleigh News and Observer has chosen to endorse Erskine Bowles for Senate. No real suprise there.

Kamran Akhtar, a Pakistani native, pled guilty to several charges in Federal Court this morning. He is the man who was caught video taping buildings in Charlotte, NC. Kamran Akhtar reportedly signed a deal last week agreeing to spend up to six months in prison before being deported to his native Pakistan. Appearing in court […]

Nice to hear about law enforcement that worries more about the law, then being PC. The sheriff of Alamance County plans to arrest illegal immigrants who registered to vote using false documents at driver licensing offices. “Laws are laws. I wouldn’t be here if I wasn’t (serious),” Sheriff Terry Johnson told county commissioners this week. […]

A little NC news, for a change. The red-light camera at High House Road and Prestonwood Parkway is one of Cary’s busiest red-light camera, dishing out more violations than the town’s other five cameras combined. All those violations have some people in the area seeing red. In August, 308 people received red-light citations from the […]

Excuse me if I cannot find sympathy for NC State students who have issues with the new rules for tailgating at NC State University before football games. “I’d say it’s pretty big, sort of like a Brent Road where everyone’s having fun, a few people get out of control and then the university comes in […]

So, Alex, Bonnie, Charley, Frances, and Gaston. 5 for 8. Ivan’s track may very well take it through NC. And it is only September 10th. This is getting rediculous. Shoulda known something like this would happen, considering what a calm summer we had, at least by NC standards. Very few severe T-storm warnings, very few […]

The hit count is Alex, Bonnie, Charley, and about to be Gaston. Danielle and Earl (would that not have been a perfect name for storm that hits the SE?) where no shows. Frances is not included yet. Wait a few days to a week to sey if NC goes 4-7 or 5-7. The 5 day […]
