Who Does That?

It's one of Greg Meriwether's favorite sayings. You usually hear it after some 'Jack' does something really stupid. How's this?

An assistant principal and his wife, a middle school teacher, held a party for the high school kids. Nothing wrong with that ... except the $5 all-you-can-drink cover at the door! That's right: kegs and what we used to call 'fraternity punch' -- a spiked mixture of a whole bunch of fruit juices and Kool-Aid.

Then there's the man who wants to see democracy in action: in Tampa, Florida the race for city council is neck and neck, so the candidates have taken to offering some incentives to people who get out and vote. One candidate owns a strip club in town, and says, "When you go out and vote and get your 'I voted' sticker you bring that sticker to the Mons Venus and we'll allow you to get in free." It sounds like it ought to be illegal but its not! Any Florida business owner can offer discounts to voters ... yeah even strip clubs!
