A few housekeeping notes: First, I’m collecting bizarro trivia about all 100 counties, and we’re still a few counties shy. I was out of town this weekend (more on that in a bit), so I haven’t gone through and seen all of the counties that I’m missing, but my guess is that I’m short by about 20 or 25. You can share your stories here! Once we get to 100, I’ll throw a short party, then start compiling them into the world’s most useless North Carolina travel guide.

Also, since I wrote last Monday’s newsletter about a license plate that says FART, the woman who has it has submitted her appeal to keep it to NCDOT, and her plight has been featured on Jimmy Kimmel Live.

And now, on with the show.
