Schools Out for Nut Club Fun

I've been living in the great city of Evansville for about 8 years now and every year I enjoy going down to the West Side Nut Club Fall Festival. It's a blast to socialize, stuff my face, and even get a peek at some of the freaks that come out at night, but this year I learned something new. It appears that the EVSC closes down on the Friday of the Festival every year. Now, it's called a built in snow day, fall break, excuse to get out, or something or another, but essentially it's to allow people a chance to eat deep fried twinkies. Awesome! See ya on Franklin Street, I'll be the one with pig toes in...

Harbison Murder & Misty Davis

Does anyone else think that the picture of Nick Harbison in the Evansville Courier makes him look like Fester from Adams Family? Nick took the stand this morning to testify in the trial against his then girlfriend Misty Davis, whom he implicated in the triple murder. According to Nick she was never aware for any murder, although it seems a bit peculiar considering he was covered in blood and attempting to wash off with a garden hose. "All I told her was that I hurt some people," he said. "I didn't tell her who or nothing." I feel sorry for Misty if it's true, because if found guilty she could face up...

Otters Manager Jeff Pohl On DL, For Good

The Evansville Otters had their worst season since the 1940's and the blame lies on the shoulders of general manager Jeff Pohl. Pohl had been with the Evansville Otters since 2002, hired on as a pitching coach. This is where he needed to stay, where he successfully built a number of hot pitching teams. It's kind of like Kevin Costner directing, he's a great actor, he just needs to stay on the right side of the camera....or dugout.  "Jeff served the organization well in his five years as pitching coach and later as director of baseball operations," said Otters president Bill Bussing. "As pitching...

Tazer Experience

Not too long ago, I saw something at the gun and pawn shop that sparked my interest. The special occasion was our 10th wedding anniversary and I was looking for a little something extra for my wife. What I came across was a 100,000-volt, pocket/purse-sized taser. The effects of the taser were supposed to be short lived, with no long-term adverse affect on your assailant, allowing her adequate time to retreat to safety. Needless to say, way too cool. Long story short, I bought the device and brought it home. I loaded two AAA batteries in the thing and pushed the button. Nothing! I...

Our Air Sucks

Today, local authorities have announced another ozone alert, which will continue into tomorrow. This afternoon will be particularly bad due to ozone levels and particulate pollution. The Courier says it best, These people should limit prolonged outdoor exertion, especially during the afternoon when ozone levels may be highest. People with respiratory conditions, the elderly and children are advised to stay inside. So don't let your grandparents mow your lawn with a push mower and keep the babies off the pavement. Lastly, do your part to save Evansville Indiana's air, please don't 'top-off' your...
