It's late, I'm tired, and it's not every day that the tiny little town I grew up in (population: 3,000) makes headline news across the country. Follow the links below to see the name of my hometown, if you don't already know it. (Of course, I would rather the town be in the news for something amazing, but at least nobody was killed in the making of this news story.)

Story (can be found from the AP page to cnn.com, and everywhere in between):

http://www.siskiyoudaily.com/display/inn_news/news1.txt (This was in a newspaper from a neighboring town. The local paper, however, still has not gotten the story online, even though I heard about the story this morning and I live 200 miles away.)

http://www.siskiyoudaily.com/ (I don't know how long this picture will be up because it's just on the main page of that local paper I mentioned above.)

Okay, okay, I'll stop now. Don't mind me: I'm just in journalist mode, I suppose. I think I am also a bit delirious because it is after 2 a.m. and this semester has really taken its toll on me.
