This weekend several new laws will take affect in North Carolina. Limits on medical malpractice lawsuits, lesser restrictions on ATV helmet use among other things. Read up on some of the new changes here.
Yesterday, there was mention of Perdue’s comment regarding suspending elections for Congress for 2 years so they can focus on their job and not on campaigning. Released today is audio from that speech, so we’ll post that here and let you make up your mind if it was said in a joking manner or not.
Food Lion Butcher’s Beef Brand prepackaged 3-pound tubes of ground beef with a 73/27 lean-to-fat ratio have been recalled by the manufacturing plant, stating a possible e.coli infection.

Food Lion issued a statement that customers should return the ground beef, with the UPC code 725439922241, to the store for a full refund.
Welcome to the Thursday Open Lines!
Sheet’s opened this afternoon driving the price of gas down a dime a gallon.
Big crowd for the opening.
It felt good to buy gas for less from someone other than (you fill in this space).
I agree Anonymous, For years we have heard the lame excuse ” WE DONT MAKE ANY MONEY ON GAS!!” So since the henderson gas station dictator dropped his price per gallon to match sheetz right when sheetz put up their price means that he is now losing money on gas? NOT. Seems to me the GOOD OLE BOY control over henderson has taken another hit. LOL
Also if you sign up for a free sheetz card you get another 3 cents off a gallon of gas along with other in store discounts. Match that!!
Sheetz was hopping early this morning. There were over 20 cars there between the gas pumps and those grabbing food before 5:00am. This was the only gas station I would frequent when living in another part of the state. Other’s simply cannot compete with their variety and price. Not just the price at the pump but on what is sold inside. So happy to finally have one in Henderson. Yes, do yourself and favor and get a My Sheetz Card. It helps! (No, it is not a credit card it is more like a Food Lion MVP).
Gas prices dropped all across the country this week. I first noticed a big drop Wednesday as I drove in the morning through Franklinton, and saw that gas was around 3.36. As I drove up to Henderson I noticed that all the stations were similar as well. http://www.NorthCarolinaGasPrices.com/retail_price_chart.aspx?city1=NorthCarolina&city2=USA Average&city3=Raleigh&crude=n&tme=1&units=us
wow! Gasoline prices going down as far as Franklinton? The new Henderson Sheetz is having a wide-ranging influence!
I’ve never been to a Sheetz…what sort of food do they sell? groceries or cooked food?
