Today’s news and information gleanings from here and there.
Today’s quote … “Resistance is Refusal. Resist. – Our long national nightmare is starting. With the Electoral College presumably failing to do its duty as conceived under the Constitution (we won’t know officially until the votes are counted on January six), Russia’s puppet is probably now puppet-elect. So this changes everything.” – From Keith Olbermann’s blog: “2PoliticalJunkies”

If there is a toll, it will surely be to fund more of council’s crazy projects and studies.
Another revenue stream possibility might be a tax on “dumass” under-investigated ideas and unsubstantiated statements. That’d generate enough money to put lights on the mile-across walking bridge.
it is a shame Hempfield had to cancel their play because some one complained about Tiny Tim’s lines, according to Fox. The spokesperson for the school said it was due to class time.God bless everyone and have a Blessed Christmas.
Sometimes, we’ve found, some of the national reporting at that network is not accurate. Actually, Channel 27 reported on this several days ago.
As did the local FOX affilate ( http://fox43.com/2016/12/16/centerville-elementary-school-cancels-a-christmas-carol-disrupts-instructional-time/ ).
The national FOX article’s writer turned it into something else: http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2016/12/17/scrooge-grade-school-cancels-performance-christmas-story.html
