  1. OMG…how about a reporter do some investigating before reporting it??? I could get more from a scanner then this useless garbage site..

  2. In an unrelated story, someone, somewhere in Maine; reportedly between the New Hamphire border or Canadian border and Maine someone, either man, woman, or transgendered individual who owns a car, truck, SUV, motorcycle, moped, roller skates, togoggan, skate board, rickshaw, banca boat, jet, helicopter, jet ski, train,  Conastoga Wagon or Bob Cousy Keds  of an undisclosed color, make and model did something possibly unlawful to someone else. Or maybe it was perfectly legal and it’s all been a misunderstanding.  The incident(or non-incident as it were)  allegedly occured on a day ending in the letter “Y” and was thought to be between 12 midnoght, either  yesterday or today…or maybe it will be happening tomorrow and 12 O’clock sometime next month. Some spokesman for an indiscriminate group suggested that the motive for the crime was one which has never been used before, such as the temperature was not within 5 degrees of what Joe Cupo stated on the evening news last week. There might…or might not be film at eleven. Stay tuned. Or Not.

    1. I am still laughing……..and your comment didnt help me to stop! AHHAHHAHAHHaaaahahahaaaa  good one!

    2. Way funnier than the story above and just as informative. Thanks for the update. hahahaha.

    3. I think I am going to create multiple accounts to give you more likes. You should ask the BDN if they are hiring, this paragraph is a great example of how thorough your fact gathering to develop a good story is.
