Songwriter is Online Sensation
A Canadian musician has become an Internet sensation after posting a song on YouTube about United Airlines breaking his guitar.
Dave Carroll's video for the song "United Breaks Guitars" was posted on site earlier this week and has received more than 600,000 hits by Thursday evening.
"I was thinking I'd definitely get some action on (YouTube) because the song has been resonating so well with audiences as I've been performing it, but I didn't know it would take off like this," Carroll said.

Joke of the Month
You'll Know It's a No-Frills Airline If:
1. They don't sell tickets, they sell chances.
2. All the insurance machines in the terminal are sold out.
3. Before the flight, the passengers get together and elect a pilot.
4. You cannot board the plane unless you have the exact change.
6. Before you take off, the stewardess tells you to fasten your Velcro.
7. The Captain asks all the passengers to chip in a little for gas.
8. When they pull the steps away, the plane starts rocking.
9. The Captain yells at the ground crew to get the cows off the runway.
10. Your life keeps flashing before your eyes. | |

Photo Radar Vans Click to Capture Speeders in Work Zones
The Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT)  alongside Illinois State Police (ISP) and the Illinois Tollway want to remind motorists construction season is underway and warn that tough laws are in place to buckle down on speeders in work zones. The law states that first-time work zone speeders, including those caught on camera, will be hit with a fine of $375. Two-time offenders are subject to a $1,000 fine and the loss of their license for 90 days. Tickets received in a work zone require a mandatory court appearance.
This summer, 5 vans will be deployed across the state. The specially equipped vans are staffed by specially trained ISP officers and can take photographs of drivers speeding in IDOT and Tollway construction and maintenance zones. Tickets are reviewed and approved by ISP and will be issued by mail to vehicle owners.
