Sunday is the day where I go over the stories that have caught my eye in the past week. It’s QuickHits! time, folks.
Let’s bring out a Big Board…
- A 17 year old diving from a dock into 3.5 foot deep Smith Mountain Lake water at 10 PM on a Sunday night just isn’t going to have a happy ending.
- Sanity prevails and conspiracy theory nutballs are disappointed as Martinsville keeps fluoridating their water supply.
- The NIMBY’s are shut down 7-0 in Pittsylvania County on a lake rental cabin proposal.
- An old downtown building in Martinsville gets converted into lower-level retail space and upper-level apartments.
- Valerie Garner sues the Republican Party of Virginia for copyright infringement (and she’s got a valid case).
- A 14-month old girl is killed when she’s ran over in a horrible Franklin County accident.
- “Gee they are all black, I guess the white folk could not get off because they were too busy being productive good citizens.” Um, meet the new chairman of the Rowan County (NC) Board of Elections.
- It’s been five years since the horrible Rocky Mount fire engine wreck that killed two firemen.
- “There’s a possum in my pot!” Say, That’s Odd!
That’s nine Quickhits for you today. We’ve got more coming up on SouthsideCentral!
