I live in rural northeast mississippi but the top news around here is that the break ins in our town pharmacy and nearby towns were done by a former police chief of Iron City, TN. Yesterday in the news was a man in an nearby town that was arrested for throwing a 60 lb pig at the people behind the desk at the Ramada Inn. He did something similar at Hardee's. He said he didn't know the people, had no problem with them. It was just a prank. As the police chief said "I've never heard of this. This must be some sort of redneck thing".

The headline usually contains some info abt upcoming elections here in PAKISTAN. main opponents here are "ISLAMISTS" and "MODERATE-ISLAMISTS". we people, to be very honest, dont like anyone of them, we here are expecting full poll-rigging , seats are sold for money and source! WHAT PEOPLE ACTUALLY WANTED is someone like "Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto" to come in and take Pakistan out of western influence!

The most recent news story I saw as of yesterday, was about a 15 car pileup, around 30 different cars were involved. It was because it had snowed yesterday and some spots on I-69 had snow on them and some didn't. But I guess how it happened was that the area people were driving on had no snow on it, and then suddenly they drove over a stretch that was next to a big open field, and there was snow on that section, and people didn't react quick enough I guess or not even pay attention and they started to slide everywhere. Fortunately no one was killed. Only like 4 people had to go to the ER. One had a broken arm or leg and a few other people had some injuries. But they had closed down the highway, so my step dad sat in it for about 2 hours.

Our top story is about our most corrupted and populistic polititian who made in summer a picture with our two most celebrated skiers, the olympic champions. According to trainers and the head of our local ski organization, he was allowed to make a picture for his personal use only. Now he made a christmas card of it, using a snowy landscape as background, and will use it as a christmas card, he will send to thousands of people, he likes to see as his voters. You see, in March we'll have parliament election. He also made a short clip -without permission - and he will also use it as pre-election propaganda. Quite a scandal but actually it's nearly nothing, to compare with all the things he made before.
