An iPhone Case for Everything

Not only have I discovered that there is an app for everything on your iPhone, now there is a iPhone case for every use. I received a Groupon offer last week for an iPhone case that opens beer bottles. I'm not sure this would be the best cell phone case to have in your car if stopped at the DWI checkpoint in Mecklenburg County last night, but maybe some are just using it to open a bottle of root beer soda. As of Sunday afternoon, only 40 have been sold it looks like everyone still prefers the old fashion key chain opener.

On a side note, twelve people were arrested last night at the DWI checkpoint off Freedom drive in Charlotte. The checkpoint ran from 11PM to 3AM. With July 4th a few days away, I imagine this is the first of several checkpoints that will be set up in Mecklenburg County in conjunction with the Booze It or Loose It campaign.

DWI Checkpoints in Charlotte this Labor Day Weekend

Labor Day weekend is here, summer is officially coming to an end. The usual Friday morning hustle was ending earlier than usual at the Mecklenburg County Courthouse this morning. If you are heading out of town this weekend, watch your speed. According to the article in the Charlotte Observer today both the North Carolina and South Carolina Highway Patrol are going to "aggressively enforce the speed laws" according to Highway Patrol Commander Col. Harry Glover. A hot spot of activity should be the NC/SC state line where I77 and I485 meet.
