Al Gore Gets Speeding Ticket on Oregon Coast
This is priceless: ASTORIA, Ore. -- Former Vice President Al Gore was cited for speeding as he drove a rented car to visit family on the coast, authorities said.
Gore, who was alone, was issued a $141 ticket for driving 75 mph on state Route 26 in the northwest corner of the state, police said. The speed limit is 55. Here's a PDF of the ticket. Thanks Barney for the tip. He originally sent me a link to the story over on KGW.com, but BugMeNot appears to be down right now, so I can't read the story there. So KGW, you just lost some traffic to your competitor because of your registration forms. Congrats.

It's possible that someone hacked into them and killed them, but from what I have been reading, it sounds like they were taken down. Maybe one of the news sites decided enough was enough.
As to the Al Gore thing, is this really a problem? Is Mr. Gore not allowed to be human because it was a Vice President at one point in his life?
The question here is will he pay the ticket, or will he have the ticket changed to a non-moving violation?
