Oh, Kentucky

We Camp; You Decide--coming soon to White Mills?

Holiday parades: Owensboro, Nov. 23; Ashland, Nov. 26; Inez, Nov. 30; Elkton, Lebanon and Maysville, Dec. 6, and Marion, Dec. 7. Christmas cards: Owensboro. 

"The LoJo is filled with names. In the first half of the fifth year of our existence (Feb. 1-July 31, 2013), the names of 2,921 different people appeared in stories. That’s 366 more than the previous six months."

Isonville's Don Rigsby is going to be on Letterman. Pikeville's Savannah Little, Lexington's Julia Knight, Prestonsburg's Celeste Turner and Knott County's Tyra Short are going to be on Lifetime. Nicholasville's Kathleen Brooks is in The New York Times and USA Today. And the KHSAA-handshake deal made Forbes.

I think I prefer the uniforms of the Eastern Kentucky Drillers to those of the Northern Kentucky River Monsters.

A Paducahan is vying for police chief in Oak Ridge, Tenn.

"It's like if you told everybody from Lexington that their address is now going to be Louisville."

More government shuffling, consolidating and repurposing.

Bad jobs news from Lexington.
