Pro-Consolidation News

First, your humble Cracker is going up against our buddy Tom Guleff on the post-World Series game FOX 13 news tonight speaking in FAVOR of consolidation. UPDATE: our segment will be shown on the Saturday night news, we found out when we got there.

Next, an event will be held this weekend talking about the Charter, from our friend Bonny Kinney of Rebuild Government:

Folks, Steve Steffens is a bully. He threatened me, he stole my wallet, slashed my tires, and smashed out the passenger side window of my car. And that was before we even got inside the studio.

MPD broke up the fight minutes after we started taping. I've cooled off a little since then, spending most of the night at 201.

TV Star, this thing is not over !!!!

Oh, and you're not going to mention that you hit me over the head with a folding chair, after jumping off the top rope??

See If I don't bring chains with me next time!
