Several interesting things to note …
- For those following the potential sale of WGTS (91.9 FM) in the Washington D.C. area it looks like Columbia Union College will not be selling the Christian radio station. Definitely good news and prayers answered for those that listen to the station and realistically for this metropolitan area.
- Wal-Mart will be selling their own brand of Compact Florescent Light (CFL) bulbs. Good news for those energy efficient-minded folk out there. I just hope they are of decent quality. Nonetheless, it’s still a good idea. For all the Cons of supporting Wal-Mart, anything they put their mitts on usually does well and their whole “Going Green” movement is a good thing.
- Is it art, freedom of speech or a potential bomb threat? So typically I “stink eye” those that do things in the name of “art expression” or shout “freedom of speech” for various idiotic things. Though this one, I’m not too sure about. Mostly because the items used can be found in any modern electronic gadget. What happens if I drop my cellphone and it breaks in half? Is it a bomb? Will I be accused of bringing a “hoax device” to the airport? This isn’t about people loosing up or being over uptight. This is about a lack of training and awareness. What this really shows is that things that are obviously not bombs are easily found to be bombs by the TSA and whereas those that are not easily found, constantly go undetected. And then there’s the general TSA mental power trips.
- To end on a happy note … BACON CHOCOLATE BARS!!!!
