Originating from that Little Yellow House in Atlanta, Georgia USA.
Wow, I got yesterdays chain letter friday or so from florida and I
passed it along immediately, didn't expect to see it again from another source.
especially so soon. Well I guess that's what is so nifty about modern
telecommunication you can send a chain letter almost instantaneously "as if
by magic" and end up "costing the net hundreds, if not thousands, of
dollars."

To get a "specific use permit" for a building in San Marcos, Texas,
the occupier must qualify for a certain number of points. Among the ways San
Marcos State University houses can qualify: 1 point for notifying the police
48 hours before a social event, 3 points for posting a "maximum occupancy"
sign, and 6 points for passing formal rules against doing things that result
in death or sexual assault.
In Zanesville, Ohio, in August two firefighters fought each other
instead of the fire at Connie Rider's house. The assistant chief had warned
one of his men, who was carrying a fire hose, not to get to close to a
downed powerline. When the man continued to approach it, the assistant chief
pulled the hose to halt the man's progress. The two men fell to the ground
scuffling while a bystander grabbed the hose and fought the fire.
A _Los Angles Times_ story on fear of heights in July featured an
interview with the psychotherapist who heads the Anxiety Disorders
Associatation. He reported that one of his patients could cross the
200-foot-high Chesapeake Bay Bridge in Maryland only if his wife drove the
car and locked him in the trunk.
