I am stunned with what with be a "YouTube" moment tomorrow of Craig Leuthold's impersonation of Mike Ragsdale's trained dog only to be followed by the biggest news of November. Is Stackhouse the shooter of the Walgreen's truck driver?
Yes, he's being charged with
Yes, he's being charged with shooting the walgreens guy in an attempt to steal his personal vehicle. To go to grand jury tomorrow.

Can't we all just get a long gun?
May we review the idiocy of
May we review the idiocy of last weeks Metro Pulse Editorial? In this Editorial some well meaning idiot states, "First he put himself at risk by drawing his weapon when he says he saw a gun come out of the young man’s pocket."
So now it appears that not only did Lumpy Lambert not put himself at risk he probably saved his life and the lives of unknown others. If Kane Stackhouse were not in jail how many other people would have been in peril?
Paging Knoxville Mayor Bill Haslam, you have a call from Michael Bloomberg...
kibbosh
In an attempt to jinx this possibility before it happens, I'm going to predict that Stackhouse hires Herb Moncier to defend him.
I fell asleep just before the national election, and everything since has all been a dream, hasn't it?
is Herb out of the hoosgow in Greeneville?
He had that other little problem....

It might be a good time to remind everybody just what a fine citizen we may be separating from our midst.

Go Lumpy!
P.S. I just got a call from someone who wanted to see a car I'm selling. A couple of things raised the hairs on my neck, and I decided to cancel the appointment to see them after work so I could meet them in the daytime. Now I'm really glad I did, and I'm going to make them meet me at a different location, just so I'll know they've got wheels.
Hey, Les, why don't we just call each other assholes and get it over with. - Somebody on the old Southknoxbubba.net (if that was you, claim your quote and win net.fame!)
Lambert Has it All Right
"Lambert has His Lumps All Right: The commissioner puts them on display in his show-off behavior"
Now that Lumpy Lambert's assailant has been charged with murder and Lumpy is vindicated, will MetroPuke be offering an apology for its scurrilous editorial?
Betty, is the press allowed
Betty, is the press allowed to step into the little confab that occurs behind the wall behind the Chairman during these so called "five minute" breaks?
I am confused about the Sunshine law. Why don't our Commissioners discuss whatever they are discussing now where they can be heard by the public? Isn't what is happening now basically a secret meeting?
Yes, the press should be
Yes, the press should be listening to these little meetings. There were more than two commissioners involved, although they would probably argue that they were not deliberating toward a decision, i guess.

Heh, there was a lot of hand gesturing if they were talking about the weather. It is truly pitiful the way this is conducted.
A few hours after Betty
A few hours after Betty breaks the story on KnoxViews about Kane Stackhouse being charged with murder before drawing down on Lumpy Lambert the News Sentinel catches up.
I do not see a credit for KnoxViews or Betty in the Sentinel story however.
