- A nice article on E.H. Culpepper, who passed away yesterday morning after a long battle with cancer.

- I say again ... if you don't think crime won't be a big issue in the 2010 local elections, you're gonna be mistaken.

- Putting up signs in Cobbham aimed at slowing down traffic speeding through the neighborhood has resulted in those signs being taken for being placed in the right-of-way ... thus raising a host of questions regarding enforcement.

- Cutting the Keep Oconee Beautiful director's position? Yeah, it's gonna cost us money.

- Arguably I don't think we should go to tax rates being 77 percent on the wealthiest Americans, but I think the central point of Chip Shirley's argument is sound - that higher tax rates on wealthier citizens provides a strong foundation for the country and does nothing to deter long-term economic growth.
