TB LAND: Georgia's reputation for rogue tuberculosis patients is bolstered by a Covington man arrested and quarantined for not obeying doctor's orders to stay at home after TB diagnosis.
TAKE A MULLIGAN: Marietta racist Mike Norman has ordered 100 more of his blatantly race-baiting "Obama in '08" T-shirts to sell at his bar, Mulligan's, despite widespread protests, mockery and death threats. The worst part may be his rationalization.
REMINGTON STEAL: A northeast Georgia man's Remington 16-gauge shotgun, stolen in 1986, is returned 22 years later after being discovered Monday in Maynard, Tenn. Good timing, too, because now he can take it into restaurants and on public transit.
