Newly Appointed King Charles planning to reclaim Westminster Village in Spanish Fort.

 

Newly appointed King of England King Chuck announced just this morning that he plans to retake Westminster Village in Spanish Fort, Alabama along with all of the residents who reside there. Westminster Village was constructed in Spanish Fort decades ago as a gift from Queen Elizabeth in exchange for parking privileges at David's Catfish House for eternity. The new King however is not fond of fish and has been very vocal about his protesting the exchange for years, and now plans to absorb Westminster Village and it's residents into U.K territory. Alabama has not fought the request due to the recent passing of the Queen, and has started the process of providing passports to all residents at WV, along with a tin of Yorkshire Pudding and a crumpet. TFI actually spoke with King Charles today and this is what he had to say about the affair: 

"How odd for someone to name a dog breed King Charles, and for me now to be a King Charles. Very odd. Do you think they knew something? To me it seems like a lunar eclipse event... this dog and me, existed at the same time now, our lives intersecting as one. I really ought to own one I believe. Wouldn't that be a delight!". 

Fairhope unveils first annual "Lighting of the 'Ween" ceremony, plans to drop fake leaves on spectators.

 

The annual Lighting of the Trees festival is one of the most beloved events in the Baldwin community where the City tries to fit a hundred thousand people into 20 parking spots all for Santa's amusement as he watches, laughing maniacally, from his lair in the North Pole. This year, Fairhope will prepare for Halloween with a similar event downtown, where they plan to drop thousands of fake orange leaves for the gulf coast children who may never see one in real life. The celebration will also include Trick-or-Treating, leaf-ball fights, leaf-man building competitions, and bobbing for apples from a tub of Purell (safety!). At the stroke of midnight the orange glowing tree lights will accompany the leaf fall and the Fairhope High band playing hits from Nightmare Before Christmas much to the amusement of Goth kids everywhere. The Lighting of the 'Ween will happen a month from now, but officials recommend finding a parking spot yesterday.
