OMG! to 'WTF'

A town in Colorado called Fruita is considering using "WTF" -Welcome to Fruita- as a tourism campaign. One of the many problems to this idea was that the local residents proved this slogan to be to edgy to some. The town of Fruita is a popular destination for mountain biking, rafters, and other DIY adventurers thought this would work because a local couple made a WTF sticker and was popular through out local businesses. Unfortunately the town didn't realize all the emails and phone calls that the couple received from overwhelmingly dismayed residents after their sticker was released. The Mayor of Fruita says that people became 'unglued' him or his grandson told them what WTF stood for. If this were to go through would people accepted the acronym or would they shun it and leave the town to rot? I think they should just bury the idea and forget about it and let others forget about it. With this generation of teenagers using acronyms for everything they would just get the wrong impression and avoid the town if they took it to offense.

  When you thought land was safe you might have to think again. Recent studies have shown that if you have dug, have been buried, or have played in the sand for a good amount of time at a beach that you are at a high risk to have some form of gastrointestinal illness. With symptoms like diarrhea, vomiting, nausea, and/or stomach aches.University North Carolina of Chapel Hill and John Hopkins have found that people are getting sick from the fecal bacteria that has been spread through out beaches that would promote the sickness. These Universities have said that it isn't bad enough to make you really sick, and shouldn't stop you from having a good time at the beach. So kids remember to wash your hands after your done at the beach, unless of course you like diarrhea, vomiting, nausea, and/or stomach aches.

.Newt Gingrich wants to build a colony on the moon. Unfortunately for him it won't happen. He continues to defend his dream of a new colony, but doesn't realize how much it would cost to attain it. To defend it he stated that the price wouldn't matter because of the tourist attraction. The cost to explore space was projected to cost 100 billion dollars through 2020. NASA was going to charge 300 billion dollars anyways.Mike gold said that It would be a mistake to laugh at Gingrich and discount the concept of a Lunar Base.He also said that people mocked Columbus before he found the new world.
