- The Governator is looking for some extra cash to pad California's budget deficit, and he's planning to get it from you. Schwarzenegger unveiled a plan to raise taxes by 1 1/2 cents on the dollar (that means tax would be 10.25%!!!), impose a 5-cent-per-drink tax on alcohol and a $12 increase in vehicle registration fees. Hold onto your wallet though, Republicans said they're going to shoot it down.
- Authorities are on the lookout for a man wanted in the attempted kidnapping of a 10-year-old Montrose girl. The man, described as having short spiked black hair, stained, crooked teeth and a Latino accent was driving a classic "molester car" - a large, older-model white sedan with a painted black door, dark tinted windows and a broken right headlight lens cover.
- LA's got a new blog, and this one is definitely worth an RSS subscription. The OG's (meaning Original Gangstas, or Original Grandparents) is a blog run by Harry and Barbara Cooper, 96 and 91 respectively, and LAMetblogs describes them as "bright and witty."
- A Nursing Home escapee in the OC was nabbed (and almost killed) when she meandered onto busy Fairview Street near the St. Edna’s Subacute and Rehabilitation Center. The elderly woman moving inch-by-inch was saved when a new driver and his mother stopped in time, moved the woman out of the street, and took her back to St. Edna's. This isn't the first "neglect incident" from St. Edna's.....
- With Measure R barely passing, BottleneckBlog's Steve Hymon posted a victorious Google Map showing who voted Y/N. Don't worry, he didn't name name's.
- Mattel is cutting it's workforce by $1,000 employees. Just in time for Christmas!

Increasing auto registration fees was one of the issues that got Grey Davis voted out and Arnold Schwartzenegger in. Interesting.
Tax the LDS, Baptist, and Catholic churches, since they ignore the separation of church and state.
Where do you think taxpayers money is going...?
37 MILLION illegal aliens--that we support for parasite employers, according to the Tucson sector Border Patrol union local 2544, not the propaganda brought forth by the Liberal national press and special interest lobby of only 13 million. An additional half-million coming every year.
A massive financial impact on our economy by importing the worlds poor.

I would use the word hypocritical, not interesting.
Arnold is a total failure. If he had not been such an ideologue about any of this these problems would not be so bad.
maybe taxing churches is in order???
Bert: I'm trying to tone down my rhetoric a bit after the last few days, but your choice of word is a good translation of my choice of word.
