Jewelry war
I enjoyed listening to Scott Chalmers (of Chalmer Jewelers) bash Richard Kessler (of Kesslers Diamonds) on the radio the other day. Kessler has flooded the radio market with his annoying ads (I hate them so much I vow to never buy from him, and I steer my friends away from him). Now Chalmers has called out Kessler for its yellow diamonds. Just priceless!

Billboard Word Scramble Solved
Have you seen the billboard with the word scramble on Atwood Avenue? (I'm sure it's at other locations around the city.)
A while back it started as just blanks, but now it reads:
CAS PONC
SORNOKS TILC
The trick to solving these is to look for letters that are not commonly used, like "K," and pair them with another letter. Thus, I tried pairing the "K" with "C" and "R". Then, you have to figure out the longest word, which in this case is seven letters. I noticed an abundance of "S"s, so I thought maybe two of them would be next to each other. Eventually I got:
NON STOP
CLASSIC ROCK
