My little town has made the national news again! [xx(]
I've already fired off a letter to the editor in Mobile letting them know we're not ALL *.[;)]

    So what is the problem here?

    Go to jail and pay a fine or go to church, right.

    So now ACLU comes along and now there's no opition.....just go to jail and pay a fine. Did any of these super-weasels ask the people who are going to wind up in jail what their choice would be?

    I guess its another way to go easy on 1st time offenders like the join the Marines or go to prison thing a few years ago. But you'll just get more poopheads in church it won't do anything to reduce crime. Might as well make them all go to AA meetings.

    I personally think if you hammer their * hard the first time and make sure prison is a bad place to be, they either will stay in prison or will make sure not to go back. Besides if they want to go to church for self improvement (which there is plenty of room to do) they can go to church in prison.

    All I know is that I were facing a year in jail or a year in church, I'd tink that chief was the bestest guy in the world.

    POSITIVE!
    This was my letter the Mobile Press printed:

    su?per?sti?tion
    /#716;sup#601;r#712;st#618;#643;#601;n/ [soo-per-stish-uhn]
    noun
    1.
    a belief or notion, not based on reason or knowledge, in or of the ominous significance of a particular thing, circumstance, occurrence, proceeding, or the like.
    2.
    a system or collection of such beliefs.
    3.
    a custom or act based on such a belief.
    4.
    irrational fear of what is unknown or mysterious, especially in connection with religion.
    5.
    any blindly accepted belief or notion.

    Bay Minette may want to reconsider propagating superstition and instead give first time offenders the option of getting a GED if they don't have a diploma. While there may be much public support for a church-based aternative, an educated citizen is much preferrable and I sincerely doubt anyone could find objection to that.
    This area, as well as the whole state, has a bad enough reputation thoughout an entire world that is currently aflame due to religion.

    wait, Olberman still has a TV show? Who knew?
    Some will die in hot pursuit
    And fiery auto crashes
    Some will die in hot pursuit
    While sifting through my ashes
    Some will fall in love with life
    And drink it from a fountain
    That is pouring like an avalanche
    Coming down the mountain
