Perhaps they can flip a manhole cover for it.

NEW ALBANY CITY WRAP: Who’s the boss? Drainage job spurs dispute, by Eric Scott Campbell (News & Tribune).

The local municipal-worker union’s relationship with New Albany took another tumble Friday, this time over a hole in the road.

Two drainage department workers refused to follow a work order from drainage-management contractor Environmental Management Corp. on June 8, officials from city government and the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees said after a Stormwater Drainage Board meeting Friday morning.


Say, was that Councilman Cappuccino standing just off-stage, yelling, “Fight! Fight!”?

It's enough to make a guy agree with Governor Mitch Daniels about the merits of privatization, but it may owe to personal trauma and trepidation as my Miller Lite date approaches.

By the way: We need a platform from the Scharlow camp. I’d really hate having to sit out another 3rd district race.

The Confidentials are hoping to see some of you at the sold-out Glenn Miller show tonight at the Speakeasy. When's the last time a scalper was seen in New Albany?
