Priorities: Important in headlines

Hey, maybe the killer installed XM! That would save her so much money.

Good News: The murdered body of an accounting student slain in 1997 was found.

Bad News: Her 1993 Honda Civic CRX Del Sol is still missing.

C’mon, people. We’re talking about one seriously sweet/slightly-waterlogged ride here. It’s not just a convertible; the roof actually comes off and fits in the trunk as a single panel!

Still not convinced to scour the Ohio River? It’s black, so it won’t show dirt.

North (sort of) and South: Civil War redux?

While last week we told you about the brewing civil war between Georgia and Tennessee, it seems they are not the only two states ready to fight brother against brother. Ohio and Kentucky are about to take up arms against one another–not over a land dispute for a resource vital to any state, but rather a big rock.

A rock sat at the bottom of the Ohio River for ages, only when the tide was low in centuries past would people climb on it and leave some kind of message. One man hauled it out of the river onto the Ohio side because it is an important part of the state’s history. As soon as Kentucky heard about it, the state got upset, because the rock was on the Kentucky side of the border.

The states’ houses of representatives have both passed resolutions about how important the rock is. No word as to whether U.N. peacekeepers will be asked to patrol the border.
