That killer Newsweak story

By now, most folks already know about the Newsweak story that is really killer. Literally. It is another example of the media not doing their jobs prior to publication. Now, one of the problems with today’s media is the need to get their story out fast. Otherwise, someone will scoop them, with all the outlets […]

TarHeel Tavern-Week 12

This weeks Tavern is up at Pam’s House Blend. Also, I apoligize for not have the link up correctly during the past week. Totally spaced it.
