On Friday, Sarah Palin made the surprising announcement that she will step down as governor of Alaska at the end of this month.  On Saturday, Palin hinted at future plans on her Facebook page writing, “I am now looking ahead and how we can advance this country together with our values of less government intervention, greater energy independence, stronger national security, and much-needed fiscal restraint”.  Palin came to national attention as John McCain’s running-mate in the 2008 presidential election and has remained in the limelight.  One billed as the “most popular governor” with approval ratings exceeding 90%, her popularity plummeted to 54% as of March 2009.  When asked about Palin’s announcement, one Alaskan commented, “I think she has a game plan that’s not Alaska, and hasn’t been for awhile”.  click here for limerick

David and Jane Szabo moved into their Anchorage, Alaska home and soon began collecting junk on their front lawn.  According to Jack Frost, the city’s Chief of Code Enforcement, actions requesting the couple remove their junk date back to 2002.  The Szabos have unsuccessfully appealed and have racked up fines of $250 per day for a total of $226,000.  If the junk has not been removed and the fine paid by Tuesday, the city will remove the items, charge for the cost of clean-up (estimated at $45,000) and place a lien against the Szabo’s home.  The Associated Press reports there are at least 10 rusted cars on the lot, piles of plywood, gym lockers, cement mixing equipment, ladders, and several other items.  click here for limerick
