- Folks are rushing to vote and are expected to turn out in record numbers. So much so that some are worried polling places won't be able to accommodate all the voters. Appointments do speed up the process, unless of course, you don't mind waiting...
- The OC though is handling the expected crush of voters with pretty unique polling locations. Ahhh the art of convenience...
- Folks are also rushing to get married... Same-sex couples that is. As the Prop 8 debates rage on (ABC.com video) and the battles gets closer, many couples are getting hitched "just in case".
- We spoke about old buildings fighting off being lost to demolition, well some old firehouses are finding new life as restaurants, markets, and museums.
- We also spoke about state and federal economic troubles threatening schools, hospitals, charities even long-time retail stores. But not nightclubs! Apparently they are still packing people in and growing in number and popularity.
- We also spoke about hospital personnel still working in spite of their criminal records. Well as it turns out, some people already KNEW about the problem, but just took their sweet time in doing something about it. Wow...
- Hope everyone turned their clocks back this morning and enjoyed that extra hour of sleep... or partying. Either way, research says that its good for you. SO ENJOY!
