Texas town says goodbye to 'hello'
KINGSVILLE, Texas (AP) -- In this friendly little ranching town, "hello" is wearing out its welcome. And Leonso Canales Jr. is happy as heck.
At his urging, the Kleberg County commissioners on Monday unanimously designated "heaven-o" as the county's official greeting. The reason: "hello" contains the word "hell."

Give me a large-sized break. Get real, people. There are far more important things to concern yourself with these days--look around: unemployment, foreclosures, business closures, lack of affordable health insurance, rising gas prices (again), . . .

My sentiments, too.
They must have too much time on their hands to have come up with THAT!
(And, what's worse, Kleburg County is located in the Coastal Bend.....kind of near Corpus Christ. Glad I don't live there. )

I've been trawling through the documents on and off today checking which ones look suspicious and flagging them. See the guardian website -
http://mps-expenses.guardian.co.uk/
so far today 37,000 out of 77,000 documents have been scrutinized by the public to flag the ones that show worrying expenses. You should have a go, its quite fun!
