I have an idea

CBS to air colorized version of 1960 event

Maybe while they're adding color to a kinescope of the 1960 Masters, they could add some color to some of the golfers. I'm just saying.

Bees abandon hives in 27 states

In "Colony Collapse Disorder" (great name) worker bees just fly off and don't return, leaving the nonproductive members of the colony to starve. Alabama has a protection regime in place that doesn't allow the import of bees from other states, and has thus been spared CCD, but it's been reported in surrounding states.

Breaking News from The Birmingham News: Circuit judge Dan King charged, turns self in

My understanding is that the grand jury was given 30 minutes to discuss a 50-odd-count charge, and had no chance to read it in detail. In other words, Judge King (who is a really good judge but one who isn't willing to just do what the authorities want) is getting railroaded by "Troy King", who is no relation.

Hall of Lame

ESPN.com - NBA - Lakers' Jackson leads 2007 Hall of Fame class

So the Basketball Hall of Fame in glamourous Springfield, MA will induct:

Five coaches, including two "international" ones and one from the fricking WNBA;
A referee;
A team, the Texas Western national champs from 1966 (the first all-black NCAA champions, who should have been in already);
No actual players.

It's a sign of a bad Hall of Fame process when they're so willing to honor everyone except the people who do the actual work.

Someone smells blood

Attorney general takes over Stokes murder case

"Troy King" took over a Bibb County murder case, which is his right as AG but not something anyone in Bibb County, on either side, wanted. This being Troy King, it's obvious that he's doing this because he thinks there's a possibility of getting the defendant executed, which is why he does most things.
