    Bill makes water users pay for annual permits By Pamela Rigaux, News-Post Staff ANNAPOLIS — A measure proposed by the Glendening administration would require almost anyone who withdraws water from a river, stream, spring or well in Maryland to buy an annual state permit. The requirement would apply to farmers, orchardists, industries and municipal water systems, and would impose fees based on the amount of water used. Only users of less than 10,000 gallons a day would be exempt. About half of the new fees would be paid by farmers, according to the Maryland Department of the Environment. The amount ...

"She started screaming "He's back, He's back" and climbed right out of ...

    Parrot A young man named John received a parrot as a gift. The parrot had a bad attitude and an even worse vocabulary.

Finally, John got fed up and he yelled at the parrot. And, the bird yelled back. John shook the parrot, and the bird got angrier and ruder. Finally, in a moment of ...
