There’s No Way Louisville’s THAT Fat And Sad

December 1st, 2011 · 11 Comments

Metro Council is putting tighter control on constables like that crazy guy who shot a lady in the face. Now it’s time for the state legislature to give cities and counties the ability to nix the office if they so desire. [WFPL] If you haven’t paid attention to Steve Beshear’s latest stunt, it’s time to [...]

Why Is Tom Burch Continually Re-Elected?

November 17th, 2011 · 5 Comments

After more than a year of pressure from fellow legislators and more than a year of obfuscation and pat-a-cake, Tom Burch has finally decided to hold hearings about Kentucky’s child death records. He couldn’t be bothered to do so until a major scandal went down. [H-L] How big is the blank stare you now develop [...]

Maybe Metro Council Is Slowly Turning Crazy

November 10th, 2011 · 3 Comments

Is Mary Woolridge as batshit crazy as Judy Green? Really? Alleging the appointment of Attica Scott was rigged? [WFPL] Just a reminder about what’s going down with Cordish and Metro Government. You’ll likely not hear about it much elsewhere. [The 'Ville Voice] The editorial board (Hi, Keith!) once again proves its disconnection from reality by [...]

Cordish/Center City/4th St Mess Should Scare You

November 9th, 2011 · 7 Comments

You know what’s crazy? Just absolutely mind-blowing? The threshold for Cordish to tap TIF money was lowered to $50 million. A, what, $450 million drop? Yep. Why is that crazy? Because Cordish – and Metro Government – allowed a tenant at 4th Street not to pay rent for two years, an amount of about $400,000. [...]

Let’s Stop Pretending Those Bridges Will Get Built

November 2nd, 2011 · 10 Comments

Crumbling bridges’ $140 billion tab leaves business paying the price. You can thank your “leaders” in Kentucky and Indiana for that. [Bloomberg] Today, John Yarmuth will lobby for the Louisville Zoo to get free polar bears. He’ll ask Interior Secretary Ken Salazar to allow displaced polar bears to be placed in accredited zoos. [Press Release] [...]

Shocking Fischer Double Standard With Parks Guy

October 27th, 2011 · 10 Comments

We get that a puppy was stolen from Sandy’s Pet Shop. We get that it was a live animal in need of a home. But spending news time on a story about it? When countless businesses lose more money from theft every day? The girl in the security footage could even be a minor. [WHAS11] [...]

JCPS Almost As Bad As 4th St Live For Wasted $

October 11th, 2011 · 11 Comments

Yes, we treated yesterday as a holiday that was established in honor of a genocidal maniac as an actual holiday. Why do you ask? We got all kinds of work done. To the city employee who got drunk and parked their car inches away from our door on the sidewalk: Thanks. That was awesome. [Deep [...]

Poor River Fields Cries That It’s Now Being Bullied

October 7th, 2011 · 14 Comments

HAHAHA! River Fields is screaming that it’s being bullied because the Metro Council told the group to shove it up its collective ass. Hahaha. This is the best thing ever. What a bunch of bloated cowards. [WHAS11] The Original Highlands Neighborhood Association is freaking out over The Holy Grale’s purchase of a home directly behind [...]

Cordish Cos Want To Ruin The Rest Of Louisville

September 12th, 2011 · 5 Comments

Anybody want to buy a MacBook Pro (or six)? 15″, late 2008 unibody (solid aluminum), glossy display, 2.53GHz Core 2 Duo, 4gigs ram, 320gig drive. Nearly everyone working with us has downgraded (upgraded?) to the iPad so we’ve got several to sell. Would prefer to do so locally to avoid eBay. Email Jake if interested! [...]
