  • Well, the days of texting and driving (legally) are over. Or will be over on July 1 when the new law that Governor Phil signed today officially goes into effect. Funny thing is, the law will apply to everyone except for state/local AND CAMPUS law enforcement officers. What? [Tennessean]
  • July 1 might be a bad day because of that, but through a small miracle, the TVA is slashing our rates again that day by 4.1%. [WTVF]
  • After announcing the closing of a whole lot of Chrysler dealerships yesterday, GM came out with 1,100 more that will be shut down in October. [Tennessean]
  • As promised, Governor Phil trekked down to Perry County with their 25% unemployment rate and announced the creation of 300 new jobs today. [In Session]
  • The VA hospitals are unearthing even more medical equipment mistakes in addition to the ones that already infected a bunch of people with terrible diseases. [WZTV]

    Makes sense about the LEOs. (Law Enforcement Officers for the uninformed) still being able to text while driving, they already have their in car computers on which they play video poker and all sorts of fun things like that. Texting is just assumed. They need to stay in contact with their families. And they're better drivers than us public obviously.
