Quote : | "Raleigh, N.C. — Raleigh police arrested a man after an armed robbery at a Hillsborough Street restaurant shortly after noon Sunday.
A man entered the Wing Zone restaurant at 2020 Hillsborough St., displayed a firearm and demanded money from an employee, police said. The clerk was not injured.
The robber fled the scene on foot but was seen getting into a vehicle, police said. The employee described the vehicle to officers, and they stopped it near Cameron Village. The suspect was taken into custody without incident.
The suspected robber has not given police his real name, so investigators were working to determine his identity later Sunday afternoon. Police planned to charge him with robbery with a dangerous weapon. " |

I'm a dork - my newest favorite is Apples to Apples (although I guess that's more of a card game). And I love Cranium! 1/25/2009 5:42:19 PM |

othello's all about thinking in long-term strategy.
but there are some very simple strategies that will allow you to beat most people who don't play much.1/25/2009 6:16:38 PM |

I'm on a proxy and it's not connecting. So I'm wondering if I have to open up IE and change my proxy settings in there or if it can be done in the wordbiz itself.
I do realize that by now I could have just opened IE and tested it myself 1/25/2009 7:34:40 PM |
