I’d like to thank my state and local officials for making another lame attempt to solve the Georgia drought. The total inability for a coastal state to try and find sources for water is a little embarrassing (hint: how do you think all of those African deserts get water).

On behalf of the residents of Loganville, Georgia, I would like to apologize again for the crazy ramblings of Laura Mallory and her failing campaign to remove Harry Potter novels from public school libraries.
