More good work from Betty
More good work from Betty Bean. Unless I missed something, she was the receiving end of the remark.
So when will these no-longer Commissioners become no-longer BZA appointees? Do we need Tank to roll over them to get them gone?
Did the KCP conflict-of-interest amendment pass with the shrunken-Commission gallstone, or was it part of the other obstruction? If it did pass, will it help keep Commissioners and BZA members from voting on matters in which their attorney represents a stakeholder?
Novelists tax their minds
Novelists tax their minds prodigiously for a lifetime to fabricate storylines for entertaining creative prose. But here in Knox County they just need to head down to the City-County building and sit, watch, and listen for stories you would find difficult to fabricate on your own.
Nice article by Ms Bean.
Was Moore found to have committed perjury? Does that in itself make him ineligible to serve on BZA or anything else?
Somebody really should
Somebody really should compile an anthology of Scoobie quotes.
We had "Ain't nobody lobbied
We had "Ain't nobody lobbied me, no, heck no," from awhile back.
"It buffouns me. It just
"It buffoons me. It just buffoons me."
Must be
Must be the 7th District. I remember once when Mary Lou got mad, really mad, and said, "I am just livered."
"Igident" ?
His constant enunciation of the "igident" people just buffoons me.
Moore Scoobie-isms for the book
Don't forget the eternally popular "is lie berries more important than roads and bridges?"
Or was that "lye berries?" I has always gotten them there confused.
