And the Nominees Are: Check out your favorite politicians, reporters and public officials who have been nominated for our Golden Poo Awards. [Golden Poo]
Nice Work If You Can Get it: A woman from Idaho named Sally Anderson is getting up to $35K from JCPS to provide executive coaching services to Sheldon Berman and other top JCPS execs. She’ll come to Louisville 2-3 times a month. But money’s tight.
Getting off the Curb: 6th District Metro Council member George Unseld must have seen enough of the media attention Marianne Butler got for picking up the tab for curbside debris collection. Unseld announced that he had arranged a similar service to pick up flood-damaged stuff on Friday.
McGraw Still Gone: A Greater Louisville Sports Commission newsletter sent today leads with the fictional news that Diane McGraw “resigned” as chair, including a fictional recounting of her accomplishments and a quote from board chair Steve Higdon that’s not real.
Borrowed Space: U of L is assessing flood damage at $15 million, but says it’s all covered by insurance. But it doesn’t know where to put all the classes scheduled to meet starting on the 24th in the Education Building, which won’t be ready for occupancy. [WFPL]
An Idea for U of L: The clubhouse at the fancy new Province apartments could probably host a few class sessions. Or the pool area. Or the theater. U of L announced the plush digs for rich kids, which, let’s be honest, are much too nice for college students. [U of L]
Open In Case of Emergency: Sts. Mary & Elizabeth Hospital will open its emergency room for the first time since the Aug. 4 rains tomorrow. Several other sections of the busy South End hospital are re-opening this week.

No comments or coverage on the Pitino thing? The story is out there. Another reason why amateur blogs are a LONG way from replacing mainstream. Nice hobby, though.

They are too busy still worshiping and kissing butt. They are afraid that the King of the Louisville, KY Trailer Park will come down hard on them. After all, you cannot say that the Emperor has no clothes.

I think, actually, they’re asleep.
