Polling the Community


Hey, Y'all!

I'm doing a little "needs assessment" research for upcoming community service projects.  What are the needs in your neighborhood?  Any suggestions for projects?  Maybe the need is yours - need a few volunteers around your house?

BOMONT, WV -
Cunningham Energy's drill site in Bomont, Clay County, WV, was burglarized Thursday, October 3. According to the company, more than $30,000 in tools were stolen from the drilling rig.
The company says is offering a $10,000 reward for the return of these tools as well as information leading to prosecution of the person or persons responsible. Cunningham Energy is working with the West Virginia State Police and said that it's waiting on a report from investigators.
If you have any information you are asked to contact West Virginia State Police.
This is not the first time that Cunningham Energy has been the victim of thieves. A trailer was stolen from the office in Kanawha County in December 2012. It was later recovered as part of a Kanawha County Sheriff's Department investigation.

WHAT THE ... ??

So ... last night around 9:30 or so, my satellite TV died, my satellite internet died & this morning, I saw this on the Communicator's website: "Shortly after 9pm, looking westward and well above the tree line, several, maybe 20, glowing orangey red lights traveled right to left as they crossed the sky. In a straight line and well spaced apart, they made no noise. No roar, no motor, no nothing. Sort of looked like the fire glow of a hot air balloon ... " Did anybody else experience the ALIEN INVASION??
