Peering into Todd Blue's cranium.

Trying to contact Todd Blue for a comment or suggest an interview has been difficult but not without it’s enlightening and frustrating moments over the past seven months.

Watch your step, Louisville!, by Kirk Kandle (www.LouisvilleKY.com)

Last month I learned that my hometown, Louisville, Ky, is at the bottom of the American Fitness Index – number 49 among 50 cities studied. And a few days later I found that Louisville is among the most dangerous midwestern cities for pedestrians, according to the Transportation for America study “Dangerous By Design.”

I’m disappointed, but not surprised. I’m angry as hell. I’m embarrassed. I hope you are, too.
