County Council critiqued for retreat, Apple to open mini-stores inside some Target stores, Five dudes go on illegal deer hun
Prince George’s County Council is holding its annual retreat in $139 a night per room and $550 a day for meeting rooms. I wouldn’t mind them going to Baltimore if the County wasn’t facing a $125 million deficit. Neighboring counties in better financial states don’t spend this kind of money on retreats. The actual cost for the 2-day retreat might not be exhorbitant but in this economic climate, the decision to spend like this makes the County Council look frivolous.
- Let them eat cake?
Apple will be opening new mini-stores in Target stores in areas that don’t have enough Apple customers to support the opening of a full Apple store. This endeavor will start with 25 Target stores where IPods, IPads, MacBooks, IMACs and other Mac accessories will be available. So that means a Target in Prince George’s County has GOT to be opening a mini-store, right?
Five men were hunting off Indian Head Highway and Oxon Hill Road. Get this, the land where they were hunting is owned by the Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission. Some of these guys didn’t have on flourescent clothing so when a deer they were trying to flush out suddenly jumped out and scared them, one of the “hunters’ shot his buddy in the stomach.
