Whacky Ohio Stimulus Project of the Evening

This comes from the latest file of stimulus proposals being made to state of Ohio government:

Project Name: Broader Bands

Project Description: The Columbus Dispatch Co. should begin to use broader rubber bands to secure the newspapers which are delivered to homes across Franklin and the surrounding counties – the skinny ones break.  The larger rubber bands will require an additional person to help stretch the bands so that they fit over the rolled-up newspaper.

Project cost and stimulus created is listed as $300.
