Here are some quirky things I stumbled upon.....
A high school senior who was issued the former cell phone number of Michigan Gov. Jennifer Granholm has been bombarded at all hours with calls for the state’s chief executive, at first getting at least six a day. “This experience hasn’t given me any political aspirations,” student Katie Kamar said. Last week the governor left a voicemail for Kamar, apologizing for the calls and thanking her for being so courteous. I wonder if she will pardon the Gov?
Speaking of pardons.... Paris Hilton is desperately trying to avoid jail for repeatedly driving on a suspended license, and flattery seems to be part of her legal strategy. Her petition seeking a pardon from California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger praises him: “Let me first begin by saying that I grew up as a child enjoying all of your wonderful films. You really are the truly great action hero for our time. You are doing a great job in the great state of California,” Hilton wrote. I'm impressed she can spell Schwarzenegger.
A Texas bill to charge a $5 entry fee to strip clubs and use the money for sexual-assault prevention and treatment got strong support in a preliminary vote. Three years ago, Gov. Rick Perry supported a similar fee to raise money for schools, but lawmakers killed it because they said it was unseemly to link strip clubs to education. Gee ya think?
