The crowd applauded for no sewer rate increases, and for using EDIT money to defray sewer rate increases, and for using the same EDIT money to pay for police and fire protection, and for hearing all the information, and for the information being withheld for another day.
Has Pogo’s axiom ever been better illustrated?
Last night, I ended up taking more notes than intended, and the coverage is spread out over six postings.
On the road to Steve Price’s vision of defeat and doomsday (6)
Quite simply the best Coffey demagoguery ever, bar none (5)
Aw-Dit, Aw-Dat, Aw-Ticky Tack (4)
Another wrong turn at Albuquerque (3)
I’ve got the geriatric, Kochertatric, working at the car wash blues (2)
Let’s get forensical, forensical (1)
Remember also to visit Twitter for all4word’s coverage.
The usual suspects weigh in:
Courier-Journal: New Albany City Council rejects sewer rate hike
Tribune: Sewer rate increase defeated
Later today, I suspect Shirley Baird will post a report at her blog. After all, King Larry needs a place to vent anonymously.
Finally, I’d like to link to Matt Nash’s Friday column, but the links currently are fried. The Tribune site and the Dubai skyscraper’s elevator system are as one today.
One more thing. Just in case someone asks, here’s the definition:
mo·ron
n.
1. A stupid person; a dolt.
[From Greek moron, neuter of moros, stupid, foolish.]
Yep. I’ll stick with that.
