Our local newspaper is one of the Gannet things; you know the local version of USA Today. It’s shrinking in size and seems to be losing ground against the “other, smaller” paper in town. The Gannet paper has run Doonesbury on the editorial page ever since. Agreed – there is a reason they’re going under – internet gives us choice of news and Craigslist gives the equivalent of classifieds. There’s no point in shouting back at a preacher full of bull, just walk away.

You light up Memphrika’s Communist Appeal and Couchville’s Snooze Sensational the same week they fired the KAG hag and don’t even give a jab in the pork ribs to the Tennessean?

I’d argue that it’s worse than KNS and equal to the former.

I read this over at MM’s yesterday evening. It made me sick to read those words, “headed for a retreat for the Ultra-Rich”. I heard about the plane crash yesterday morning while here at work. When the report stated that there were 14 people; 3 families with small children, I stopped what I was doing and immediately thought about my daughters. I just wanted to find my daughters and just hold them in my arms. My solemn thoughts are with these 3 families, two of which are related (sisters). Their poor parents were there waiting for them to arrive, and this tragedy takes place. It’s absolutely heart breaking.

Matthew Brown deserves a “Class Beating” by way of the other end of my low-budget Van’s shoes, attached to my feet.
