Friday potpourri: Three ... two ... one ... and we have flushing.



It's true that outgoing New Albany city attorney Shane Gibson often was unfairly targeted by abuse from disgruntled troglodytes, but a change was inevitable given the third England administration's downward devolution. As the incoming mayor's appointment illustrates, the city attorney works for the current occupant, and my personal belief is that Stan will be a very good city attorney.
Mayor-elect Jeff Gahan appoints New Albany city attorney; Stan Robison has served New Albany before

Gahan confirmed that Robison sent a letter on his behalf to department heads and other supervisory employees of the current administration to tell them that they must go through the application process if they wish to keep those jobs.

Whenever the Indiana State Chamber of Commerce wields its legislative agenda to define what it means to be in business, I'm almost immediately embarrassed to be a called a businessman. There needs to be a different word so I can save face:

State Chamber of Commerce to roll out sweeping legislative agenda

The thought of Greater Louisville Inc.'s Joe Reagan taking precious pomposity time from his position on the Tolling Authority to portray a cancer specialist, too, somehow reminds me of Elena Ceausescu's inflated portfolio during Communist Romanian times:

Curtis Morrison: GLI using your tax money to redefine the definition of cancer

Gahan made a good first move by dismissing Gibson, now he needs to chop the other head of the two headed monstor, Carl Malysz and he will be headed in the right direction.

In the last 30 years the AFTER TAX income of the top 1% has quadrupled. The top 1% are also called the "job creators" by organizations such as the Indiana Chamber of Commerce. Why are we supposed to believe that they actually want to "...create prosperity for all Hoosiers,”?
