On top of the right hand column is a stat counter. Do not think that is how many people have visited these pages. Those are page loads. The number of unique visitors is much less, the number of regular readers way less than that. Most readers land here by chance. I doubt they stay long. Building a readership is harder than I thought it would be. The more readers the more stress to deliver more interesting information. Can we keep these pages our little secret? Doug Brown reading 56572 over in the Sudan.....will you send us an email and give us an idea of what life is like there......with no money?
Throw away, no....recycle your phone book

Amsterdam? Anybody home?
Readers have been asking for a road report from the Norwegians who are spending these days in Amsterdam.
Metamorphosis
A reader commented on how the BTB (Bike Trail Boys) has seemingly morphed into the CTG (Concerned Taxpayers Group). The CTG has a $300 quarter page attack on the Superintendent of School in today's Press. As no letters will be allowed in next week's Press, all comment will be paid for by the column inch. Does the CTG have their own website or blog yet? For readers living out of reach of a Pelican Press, here are the first two letters in today's Press mini-saga style.
Letter One
questions unanswered
twenty acres less
saves $20,000
why four basketball courts?
next tax increase
next year?
no state $?
recycle old school costs $
new phones?
portable classrooms?
ask a farmer (like me)
tax increase higher for us
all want to drive Cadillac
we can only afford a compact.
Letter Two
I love 56572
Came from California
twenty years ago
People make school great
PRHS facility
dangerous, inaccessible, aging, labyrinth.
Financial burden.
56572 going downhill
revitalization struck down
negativism
Library step forward
listen to leaders
school tax good tax
tangible benefit
money stays here
my money is where my mouth is

Maybe converting those old classrooms to jail suites and renting them to the County would not be such a bad idea after all. What do you think CTG?
Bravissimo!!!!!!
Independent School District 548 finally got their school board minutes posted on their web site.

I just discovered this blog, reminds me of our counter cultural newspaper of the 60's. Interesting, keep up the good time consuming editorial, of informative, community and global concerns. Thaks Jim
What I would like to know is how many private closed meetings there might have been with elected officials present as the ctg people have been plotting.
