Reidsville Roll rolls into Reidsville

It's official!  Reidsville has become so famous it now has a sushi roll named after the city.  The mixture of crabstick, cream cheese and cucumber wrapped in seaweed and rice is served with wasabi (the green blob) and ginger.  Six "Reidsville Rolls" runs about $7.00 at Taste of Japon on Freeway Drive.  It's a bit tricky getting to Taste of Japan, what with the six-year plus road construction project, but it's worth the circumnavigation to taste the "Reidsville Roll".

Nothing goes with a Reidsville Roll like Yaki Soba..

We know it's not biscuits or pizza, Reidsville's two facorite foods, but it's still pretty tasty stuff.

Reidsville Review switches it up

The Reidsville Review's Halloween decorations poll wasn't working out very well, so the Review switched to a poll to inquire about reader views on crashing into a parked car.

Three Review readers would leave a note, two say it "depends".  What's your feelings on crashing into a parked car?

Help the Review out of a jam

The Reidsville Review's Halloween poll is being pretty much ignored by its readers.  This is an indication the poll is not being shared with the Greensboro News.

Please help the Review out of a jam by responding to its Halloween poll.

Thank you.

Sad news in Rockingham County

Can you spot the former Rockingham County Commissioner in this group?

Hint:  We was a very funny guy and threatened to beat my ass on a couple of occasions.

I have to wonder what the team was called.  Notice the Confederate flag planted in front of the group.

More news about the Commissioner coming soon.

Teenage hookers making elderly smile

See something?  Say something.

The City of Eden's embarrassment continues to grow.  A fourth old man is being sought for involvement in the Tommy Woodall teenage hooker incident.  The suspect is believed to have possibly fled to Florida.  If you see an old man who looks a little too happy, call the Eden Poe-Lease.

A once famous County Commissioner

A miniaturized W.L. "Dubby" Pryor presents a $100,000 check to Rockingham County Community College.  Dubby was once famous for his good works, vast wealth and for being a super wonderful human being and County Commissioner. 

Dubby was the first person to receive free money from Rockingham County for connecting his housing development to the W.L. Pryor Memorial Waterline that quite coincidentally runs past Dubby's property from Reidsville to the Dynegy gas turbine power plant. 

Although Dynegy protested the waterline, saying a well on the Dynegy property was adequate, the Commissioners were certain a 20-mile waterline was needed for Dynegy.  Millions of gallons of water are poured out onto the ground weekly to keep the water from going stale in the little used line.  It seems few people wanted to connect to Dubby's waterline.

Dubby is also the first person to accuse the Neely Chronicle of being a front for a Communist propaganda machine (Russian or Chinese) because the Chronicle criticized the Rockingham County Commissioners.

Note that's RCC Presudent Bobby Keys on the far right.  This is a rare photo of Bobby without all his turquoise bling.

The News-Record and the Review have thus far protected Dubby's elderly fan base from the news of his possible involvement in an illegal gambling operation.  Only Star News, RCENO, and the Reidsville Review Review have reported the raid on Dubby's Ruffin Ranch.

It would have been much better if Dubby were suspected of defrauding the elderly out of their pensions, but a gambling charge will have to do in a pinch, if he is convicted.

Another County Commissioner suspected

He was once billed as the most powerful, the wealthiest man in Rockingham County.  He was once on the Board at RCC and practically every other board in the county. He ran a loan company.  He ran the Economic Development Commission.  He was a Rockingham County Commissioner.  He ran for state office.  Dubby Pryor ruled Rockingham County.

Sadly Dubby Pryor is reported to have fallen on some hard times.  Things are not what they once were for Dubby Pryor.  A bankruptcy may be involved, a heart attack, and unrelenting abuse from the Neely Chronicle who suspected Dubby was always up to no good.

Now things have gone from bad to worse.  Dubby is suspected of involvement in an illegal gambling operation on his Ruffin estate.  Rockingham County sheriff's deputies raided Dubby's ranch and confiscated evidence of a sweepstakes operation.

Rockingham County District Attorney Craig Blitzer will present his case to a grand jury on October 5th.

I hope Blitzer can keep The Zero and Dubby cases straight.
