- This probably isn’t too exciting to all of you. It’s a News & Observer story about Clinton’s visit that moved on the McClatchey wire and ran on the Kansas City Star Web site. But it’s still kind of neat to see reporting on Alamance County posted around the country and world.
- I don’t remember a principal being charged with student sex, at least not around here.
- I find it hard to believe that Jimmy Fallon will be anywhere near as good as Conan O’Brien.
- High bonds have long been cited as a cause of jail overcrowding in Alamance County. Now Wake County is going to cap them.
- Nothing in the news interests me more than international espionage and oil. There are lots of interesting oil stories this week. A Canadian study thinks that prices will double in the next four years. Some people are going crazy over this big oil discovery off Brazil. I read an interesting story this week in the WSJ about the Saudis’ struggles to keep up. Of course, there’s still the Bakken field in North Dakota and Canada that could be a big producer.
- The only thing worse than Arby’s buying Wendy’s would be Hardee’s buying Wendy’s. For God sakes, just leave Bojangles’ alone.
