Spring Break
Weird coincidence or not, four famous celebrities have died in less than a week. First was Ed McMahon, then Farah Fawcett and the King of Pop (both on June 25th) followed by Billy Mays, aka the true "Infomercial King." This is perhaps one of the most bizarre turn of events that has happened in recent years to the "big-wigs" in entertainment.
On Friday, June 19th, North Carolina Governor Beverly Perdue signed a bill into law which bans drivers from text messaging and emailing on their cell phones while behind the wheel of a vehicle. Perdue, who is best known for her fight to advance education and improve healthcare, hopes that this new law will further help to reduce the amount of unsafe driving practices taking place on North Carolina roads.
