Couple of things

- So Rep. Paul Broun is gonna do a town hall in Athens-Clarke County after all. A lot of folks are saying 'good for him' but I don't know why we need to pat someone on the back when they're finally doing what they should have done all along.

- Friend of BTT David Hamilton talks about the problems with the proposed Sycamore Ridge facility.

- Revenue Commissioner Bart Graham defends his turf and speaks up for government bureaucracies.

- I joked on my Facebook status that I was waiting for the story that noted the area was still in a drought after all the rain the past few days, and while yesterday's doesn't exactly do it, as Hillary joked with me, it does manage to point out certain areas are still below pool.

- Speaking of Hillary, her criticism of Jessica Morris, Broun's spokesperson, is spot on. Oconee County is not Athens-Clarke County, and Athens-Clarke County is not Oconee County. They are distinctly different geographically - and demographically - speaking, and there's just absolutely no way around it.
