MARY'S TODAY on Oct. 25th, the information included in the biography of Tommy McKay on the county's official website has been changed to delete any reference to his having earned a degree in Business Administration from the University of Maryland.

| Hambone! Show us your poll! With spending by Tommy McKay likely surpassing a half million bucks, the GOP candidate for State Senate has undoubtedly blown about $30,000 on a poll but he is sitting on the results. Now there can only be one reason McKay won't release the results of the poll, he is seriously behind. That would explain his more negative tone he has set in the past few weeks. After all, with nearly a half million bucks spent and still trailing his opponent, Sen. Roy Dyson, McKay couldn't possibly be in a good mood. Will McKay and his daddy be able to buy an election in 2006? Daddy tried to buy it in 1994, spending $50,000 to Dyson's $6,000. Retail purchase of a seat in the state senate didn't work for McKay that year, will it work now? Only The Shadow knows for sure.

More than a dozen fires were set near the Accokeek Vol. Fire Dept. Why do the volunteer fire departments continue to be haunted by firebugs? This region could not exist without our wonderful volunteers, but each year another round of youthful firebugs set fires that they can then run out on the back of fire trucks to extinguish....should psychological testing be mandatory for membership in a volunteer fire department? |
Don't trust the electronic voting
machines? You aren't alone. The only sure way to make certain your vote counts is to vote by absentee ballot. The state's leading politicians are urging all voters to cast their votes by absentee ballot. The law no longer requires that you give a reason, simply stop by the election offices in La Plata, Leonardtown or Prince Frederick and tell them you plan to vote absentee and leave a paper trail...story McKay Defends Hackerman Giveaway |

The Bozo Pilots who dumped a U S Navy helicopter upside down at
the St. Mary's Fairgrounds were actually students at the U. S.
Navy Test Pilot School....what a helluva note, these cats who
dumped this bird upside down are supposed to be the best and the
brightest, what they need is to be sent to driver's ed school
with the local high school students.... While this crew wasn't hurt, crashes of other Navy planes and choppers from Pax River have often proved fatal to the crew such as this crash from 1981. |
