Non-Edgewater Round Up

Edgewater free for those of you who are celebrating the big push being over, but this isn’t the last you’ll hear of it . . .

APEX MAKING LITTLE PROGRESS
I have a post I’ve been meeting to meet from the meeting where the UDC totally and completely just trashes this project, and it looks like they’re not making any progress with the neighbors either.

KUDOS TO DOYLE
Auto title loans now illegal. Good use of the line item veto.

BUSTED
I’ve long suspected things like this go on, good to see them get busted doing it. Some corporations will do anything to get what they want.

RING-RING, RING-RING
I’ve been hearing more and more from people who have called 911 and the phone just rang and rang. But I’m not sure I feel too good about calling 911 and getting placed on hold.

NUDIST AT VILAS
Dude, pick a more discreet park . . .

BIKE BOXES
I might be alone, but I don’t understand how this helps me when I ride my bike. But then again, maybe this intersection isn’t the one that really, really needs it. Cars are pretty used to the bikes here, I think. But again, I could be wrong. Cap Times asks the same question. Here’s another article on them.

THIS IS SCARY
The stress of the economy is taking its toll.

FREEBIRD
D’Angelo wants to be free.

FREE PICKLE
A canner’s victory.

STATE JOURNAL EXPLAINS THE POT COOKIE
Hilarious. Especially there sheriff deputy comment.

SYNTHETIC POT GET MASEL HIGH
It’s here, for now. Pep Pourri, Black Mamba, Kind Spice, Life Spice, Flash-II, Space, Gold Spice, Dragon Spice, Voodoo Spice, Hush, Summit and more. “Not for human consumption”.

BUMMER
I’ve often thought I’d love to have a beer delivery service.

WILL THIS HAVE ANY IMPACT
I wonder if any of this will have any impact on local development.

INDIVIDUALS HAVE TO MAKE UP FOR CORPORATE AND GOVERNMENT FAILURES
The message in this article is a little more optimistic than the discussion I had with area non-profit staff on Tuesday. Kathleen Falk told us there that county employee participation in the payroll deduction program was down substantially due to the 3% cut they got last year.

HOLY REDEEMER DOWN!
Guess that won’t be happening.

HIGH SPEED RAIL AND CENTRAL PARK
Oops.

  1. Brenda,

    I was at the meeting and this has nothing to do with putting people on hold. Instead of just hearing the phone ring, there is a message that encourages you to stay on the line.

    The 911 call is still answered as soon as possible. Not "put on hold".

    Thanks for all your great coverage.

    Sup. John Hendrick
