And in Local News: God Bless the Children of the Beast or, Too Fast for Love
There's a lot going on here in Fox News's Heartland right now. The most important congressional election in a generation is going down to the wire. 75 more members of the 313th Medical Company are being sent to Iraq and have been told to be prepared to be gone for two years (They don't call it a back-door draft for nothing). Also 19 more members of the 238th Aviation Regiment will be going with them.
But what has captured the imaginations of Lincolnites? Tommy Lee, of course. Just now I learned via the Hacktackular Channel 8 News that Tommy Lee tried out for the marching band.
Thank Osborne I'm sequestered out on East Campus with the farmers and the dentists so I don't have to run the risk of entering a Tommy Lee camera zone. Just today a friend on City Campus was pulling out of a parking spot and suddenly noticed a camera crew. Whoa! Tommy Lee was waiting for her parking spot. I've also heard that the un-Reality quotient is pretty high, but I'll wait to get the whole story before reporting on it.
I don't know how much of this I'll be able to take before I burn my cherished copy of Too Fast for Love.
Oh, yeah, and the football teams sucks too, which will lead the news for the next week until they squeak out a win at home over Baylor.
