Report Litterers in Texas

I had no idea you could literally report a litterer in Texas through the Don’t Mess With Texas website.

This is what happens after you report the litterer:

TxDOT compares the information through the Department of Motor Vehicles registration database, and when an exact match is located, we send the litterer a Don’t mess with Texas litterbag along with a letter reminding them to keep their trash off of our roads.

I would actually like to see what the letter says.

Oklahoma senator: Tornado aid “totally different” from Sandy aid

Sen. James Inhofe, a Republican from Oklahoma, argued that there is no comparison between Hurricane Sandy relief, which he voted against last fall, and aid for his state in the wake of Monday’s devastating tornado because the two are “totally different.”

Inhofe contended on Tuesday that the Hurricane Sandy relief bill was different because it was filled with pork. “They were getting things, for instance, that was supposed to be in New Jersey,” he said on MSNBC. “They had things in the Virgin Islands. They were fixing roads there, they were putting roofs on houses in Washington, D.C. Everybody was getting in and exploiting the tragedy that took place. That won’t happen in Oklahoma.”

To his point, I’m not a fan of government pork and have a hard time understanding how so much of it gets into bills.  For instance, when the health care bill passed, a change regarding student loans was attached to it.  It should have just been two different bills.  I’m guessing it’s done for efficiency, like voting for 100 bills instead of 10,000 bills, and the likelihood of them getting passed or overlooked is increased.

Domino’s Pizza DVD Campaign

Domino’s printed special labels with flavored varnish on movie discs including Argo, James Bond, and The Dark Knight. As the discs heat up, the label’s movie title is gradually replaced with an image of a pizza. And, once the movie is over and the disc is removed from the player, the user is also treated to the smell of fresh pizza along with the message: “Did you enjoy the movie? The next one will be even better with a hot and delicious Domino’s Pizza.”
