Yeah, that was a local thing for me. Not my district, but close enough that it creeped me out big time.Here is a good one...
Why am I not surprised that it was worse than the district claimed?

Video game merit badge not as fun as one might think
The article seems to have gotten some of their facts wrong: Cub Scouts (ages 6-11) earn belt loops and pins. Boy Scouts (ages 12-18) earn merit badges.
It also seems like a ploy to drive up membership. Scouting has historically stressed outdoor activities, and this seems to run counter to a lot of things Scouting has stood for. It bugs me.

I've heard rumors that they've been trying to merge Cub and Boy Scouts for years into some kind of weird Junior/Senior thing. This was a wild ass conspiracy theory thing even when I was going to scouts regularly, however.

I've gone through Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts, and am now a member of an adult Venture Crew, and I'd never heard that. Interesting...
Don't you love NIMBY environmentalism?
No kidding. If the Greens ever want to be taken seriously over here, they need to start by using some vague semblance of logic in their reasoning. We'd all benefit.

Gulf of Mexico Oil Well Leak worries the US.
So if they cant cap it, they pose the risk of the gulf turning into a poisonous pit of flamable nasty. What happens when the first hurricane causes a lightning strike and ignites the sea? Near perpetual Firestorm fueled by Oil that cant be stopped until the deposit runs dry or the pressure drops sufficiently.
If they cant cap it the only option is to build a sea wall from florida to cuba and cuba to mexico...and drain the gulf of mexico through high volume pumping stations and oil filtration plants.

Hah! I just read an email from a concerned Louisiana citizen who was seriously worried lightning would strike the oil and start a massive fire. I'm in Robert, La., right now working on media response for this spill. We've gotten all sorts of inquiries ranging from solutions to hate mail for BP.

Ask me how well it will go down when the USA is forced to recognize Cuba and Mexico as US states...just to cap an oil leak.
Would a Hurricane turn Oil into Aerosol particles and spray it across the gulf states?
Wait...hatemail for BP? :)

Man shoots at propane tank. Propane tank explodes. No, really.
"The investigation is continuing." Really? Man shoots propane tank; injures self. Seems pretty open and shut to me. What more do the police want to know?
Car bomb scares Times Square but fails to explode
I was working in that neighborhood the night before- thank god I wasn't there for a Saturday shift.

It's part of the propane industry's plan to institute a New World Order. I'm sure of it.

I'm hearing from all my co-workers that it "has to be the terrorists." The logic seems to be that all drilling is "good for America" and therefore 100% safe, and that environmental issues never occur normally in a free market, because the magic of capitalism prevents them. Therefore, the only way this could have occurred is through deliberate terrorism. I've also been challenged to "prove it wasn't Al-Quada!" (abetted by illegal immigrants and Mexican drug cartels, who I'm told are all in cahoots with the Taliban).

Labour parliamentary candidate calls Brown "the worst Prime Minister ever"
Funny! :-)
Well, I don't know about that. It's surely a coin-toss between Brown & Blair.
O come on Margaraet Thatcher wouldn't have a clue even if it bombed the faulkland Islands..... wait a second......
