I'm told that the New York Times will run an article on Monday about Knox County Government, and it may feature some of the shenanigans from the most recent County Commission meeting.
Bonus, Hallerin Hilton Hill will have the New York Times report on his WNOX show on Monday to discuss the article. From what I've been told, it should be interesting.

sigh.... I sure wish they
sigh....
I sure wish they would have visited Blount County.
It's a southern thing
The Yankees (and rest of the nation) get another example of "Good ol' boy politics." I wonder if they'll get Lumpy to flash some "heat"? That'd be cool!
Take Care, Be Good and don't play in the street!

I sincerely hope
they don't get Lumpy to "flash" anything.
