It's a biased opinion, but I think our current public servants are dropping the ball big time.  Not all of them, all the time, but enough to make an embarrassment of our fine city.  There has been a lawsuit filed against the city of Evansville for excessive pollution of the Ohio River.  I say excessive because the state permits a small amount of pollution, it's alleged that we've over stepped those boundaries. What this means for the city of Evansville are extremely steep fines.  According to the Courier and Press these fines can reach up to $37,500, per day!  Weinzapfel replied in a statement...

I was shocked today to see the announcement of a production for Lord of The Flies, in the Chicago Tribune.  Furthermore, I was even more shocked to find out that the Evansville Civic Theater was going to be putting on a production of Lord of The Flies. Visions of blood, gore, and regret is all I can imagine when thinking about the 1954 Novel.  However, it's not the book I envision, but the ultimately disturbing movie from 1990.  Keep in mind I was at a very impressionable age when the movie first came out and honestly it left a lasting impression on me. The new production will be put on in Mesker...

Beautiful weather, custom rides, and happy faces as far as the eye can see.  No doubt about it, this would be the best way to describe the 2009 Frog Follies in Evansville, IN.  My only regrets are that I didn't have longer to spend time with the attendees and those that traveled so far to enjoy the company of other hot rodders. I showed up to the Frog Follies, which is located every year out at the Evansville 4H Grounds, around 2 o'clock Saturday afternoon.  At this time there were still hundreds of people filing in, 2 by 2 in some places, a sight in itself to behold.  And once on the grounds...

Here is some free advice for local car lots looking to capitalize on the popularity of Evansville Craigslist.  Yes it's free to list and there are not printed rules to follow, however there is netiquette that should be followed if you don't want to piss potential buyers off.  Let's get started. 1. Always advertise the price, don't  make me call you.  Town and Country Ford is the latest offender of this and frankly I'll never shop there again, that's how much it pisses me off. 2. Provide plenty of pictures, at least 4, don't tease me with the perfect exterior picture when the interior is rotted. 3....

My daughter, Emma, has been attending the Evansville Vanderburgh Public Library Toddlers Story-time almost since birth. Each Tuesday morning her babysitter would take Emma along with her grandson to the Oaklyn Branch for the under 2 year old story time. The older she got the more she enjoyed it. The class is free to the public and lasts a half hour. Taking her to "library school", as we call it, was one of the activities that I was looking forward to the most when I became a stay at home mommy. I was amazed and in awe that my one year old knew so many classic nursery rhymes, not to mention her way...
