  • 75 Things Every North Carolinian Should Do

    Check out the list of of NC favorites and see if yours made the cut!

    Originally published in Our State magazine, this is something I read about on GoGoRaleigh.com (which by the way, is one of my favorite new sites of 2008 – thsnks for the recommendation Ashton) and wanted to pass along!

    My favorites (and those I plan to try soon) include:
    3. Wright Brothers Memorial: online
    9. Hatteras Lighthouse: online
    10. Bill’s Hot Dog Stand: (252) 946-3343 Gladden Street, (252) 946-8535 Washington Square Mall (Note: if they’re the pink hot dogs, I’ve got to get to little Washington to try them!)
    16. North Carolina Seafood Festival: online
    18. Fort Macon: online (Note: A great place to take the pups!)
    22. Airlie Gardens: online (Note: One of the best places in Wilmington, by far!)
    24. Masonboro Island: online (Note: A 4th of July classic!)

    Ok, forget my favorites list, because it pretty much contains the whole original list!

  • United States Redneck Special Forces (USRSF)

    This is a good one… thanks Aunt Sandra for sending it along 🙂

    The Pentagon announced TODAY the formation of a new 500-man elite fighting unit called the United States Redneck Special Forces (USRSF)

    These southern boys will be dropped off into Iraq and have been given only the following facts about terrorists:

    1. The season opened today.
    2. There is no limit.
    3. They taste just like chicken.
    4. They don’t like beer, pickups, country music or Jesus.
    5. They are directly responsible for the death of Dale Earnhardt.

    The Pentagon expects the problem in Iraq to be over by Friday.
