100 YEARS
In today's fast paced world when we're caught up in our own lives, problems, and challenges, we have a tendency to often ignore significant moments in time, but when someone makes it to the age of 100, we should stop (for at least a moment), marvel, and take note.  Tomorrow (January 28th, 2010), one of our own will reach the century mark...more
 
New Sponsor:  PolkCountyToday.com is delighted to welcome Portable Buildings & Carports to our list of sponsors.  I went out and visited manager Jason Joice and was amazed at the quality of these storage buildings, carports, and little houses.  Three main things I noticed was the quality of these buildings and carports, the affordability, and the versatileness (see their banner ad on our Top Headlines page).  I'm actually considering one for myself to use as a business office.  Check 'em out! -- Editor

THE HEAD SHAVING INCIDENT

It's pretty routine for things to get out of hand on Oucast Radio hosted by Classic Hits 92.3's
Outcast Don.  But Tuesday morning's show went way over the top in a head shaving episode that I had to do.  Yes, I HAD TO DO IT.  One morning a few months ago, I made the mistake of jokingly saying that I would shave my head live on the radio.  Well, since I opened my mouth and said it live on the air, I had to go through with it.  I showed up ready to do it, and Don asked me to shave my head while reviewing the week's stories from PolkCountyToday.com, however, I guess I was too uncoordinated to do both, so halfway through, Don gave me a hand and finished the job (but I still struggled trying to do the show while simultaneously having my head shaved). Welcome to Outcast Don's world.
