Op-ed Error

So, our current class project is to write an op-ed piece on something local. The problem is that there is NOTHING interesting in the news! The topics range from the current non-election which we may or may not be having, to the fact that the local Food Bank or Food Drive thinger has nigh emptied its shelves! Anything there really catch your interest and scream "Write an opinionated atricle about me!"? (I might have errored in my grammer there, but what can you do?) I need something interesting, something fresh, something that will allow me to burn off steam and yell at something that's going on. If you have suggestions, let me know, because otherwise this is going to be a rather dull project on how the repaved roads aren't up to everyone's standards.
