Fair going

Update:
If you are curious as to what a grilled cheese eating contest looks like, well, it looks like this:

Yeah, yeah, yeah ... local elections heating up - relatively speaking - skullduggery in the lottery, John Edwards acting like, well, John Edwards ... all of it important I'm sure.

But today I've been dispatched to the State Fair to cover the big grilled cheese eating contest.

Folks, I took the family to the fair over the weekend and I'm forced to wonder if the grilled cheese eaters (you know the guys and gals who shove as many sandwiches down their gullets during a set period of time) will even rate in the land of giant turkey legs and fried candy bars.

If you're going to be out there today, drop me an e-mail at mbinker@news-record.com or just look for the guy holding a notebook and wearing a slightly bemused look on his face.
