Yes! Weekly blog post details a lot of legal problems for Chuck Woolard, the Republican candidate for the Southeast Ward council seat in Winston-Salem. The cases include criminal (forgery in 1991 and marijuana possession verdict in 2001) and civil judgments against him and/or his construction company (lots of homeowners complaining he took their money and didn't complete the work). I'm thinking voters can deal with the marijuana thing, but forgery and poor business practices are another matter. Whatever chances he might have had before this news hit have flown out the window.

Someone posted this item on PlanetMinis.com about setting up an indoor racing facility in a 40,000 sf warehouse in downtown Winston-Salem. I'm thinking he should talk to the folks at Dell to see if they want to go in with him on his venture in February. I think they'll have some space available.

Gotta love politicians: NC Republicans sent out a survey and get responses; they then delivered the surveys to Democratic Gov. Bev Perdue's office as a publicity stunt; the Governor's staff actually read the surveys and found all kinds of interesting stuff, including a donation check to one of the Republicans, which of course begs the question, "Did the Republicans actually read the survey responses themselves?" One comment written by a survey respondent: "Stop wording questions so geared up to get the answers you want and start wording them to actually find out the people's opinion, not just confirm your own. There are probably only three questions on here that are legitimate."
