GOOD MORNING AMERICA VISITS KINSTON TODAY
ABC’s “Good Morning America” is in Kinston all day to tape a feature for a future GMA Weekend broadcast. GMA is visiting Christopher’s Restaurant this morning and — during the course of the day — go to “Mama” Kornegay’s house and all over Kinston.
My take: This is a fantastic thing for Kinston. While Jacksonville is getting hammered for all the killings down there and other surrounding city’s crime rate are skyrocketing, Kinston is getting positive national exposure. Gotta love that.
Follow GMA all day here, where writer Kaitlin Barker will be providing updates of the show’s visit.
MOTHER OF MISSING TODDLER PHOTOGRAPHED PARTYING AFTER DAUGHTER’S DISAPPERANCE
There are pictures of Casey Anthony, 22, partying at an Orlando nightclub after her daughter allegedly disappeared. Anthony’s 2-year-old daughter was missing for a month in Florida before she reported her missing.
Evidently, they’ve searched Anthony’s car and found a lot of evidence that points to foul play from the mother. They’ve not charged her with murder (yet), but it’s probably close.
My take: I just found out about this story this morning, but I have a feeling it’s going to get a lot worse before it gets better. Like many of you — I’m sure — I hope the little girl is alive somewhere, but I’m not putting any money on it…
NBA REFEREE SENTENCED TO 15 MONTHS
Disgraced NBA referee Tim Donaghy was sentenced to 15 months for gambling on games in which he officiated.
My take: I was shocked that his sentence wasn’t longer — and I bet NBA Commissioner David Stern feels the same way. Evidently, it could’ve been a lot longer, but because he cooperated with the government (i.e., ratting out some of his cohorts), the sentence was shortened.

That’s great news about the K-Tribe. I’m looking forward to seeing what “Good Morning America” will do with the story when it airs.

A 4.06- 40? I think you might be a couple of tenths of a second off on that one metalhead. If they had somebody running that fast, he’d be on his way to Beijing in a couple of days.

ENC, I have to agree with heelatious on this one; 4.06 is insanely fast.

Well it was a WR but still

I doubt I could fall 40 yards in 4.06 seconds.

Considering Wake Forest actually went to a BCS game and isn’t even really considering a football school, it could have something to do with it.
Or it could be what us “anonymous” users like to call “poll rigging.”
Oh yeah ENC, they didn’t even have my name in the financial aid system, even though I’ve been getting it the past three years. We have a wonderful department, don’t we?

I had to go to the Office 3 times, and unoffically 5 times cause i went twice on my first day of orientation but had to give my number away to get to orientation stuff on time, just to get it figurered out.
The pirate rants say it all, almost every week there’s a rant about the FIn. Aid office
