Pilots, however, are encouraged not to fart
***Louisville’s main newspaper the Courier-Journal has been a biased left leaning paper for many years, they are silly biased and had only (count them now) ONE conservative editorial writer. They refused to publish his story so he left the paper.
*Courier-Journal defends editorial page after conservative columnist resigns over liberal bias
Following the resignation of the paper’s lone conservative columnist, the editorial director of the Louisville Courier-Journal newspaper is defending the newspaper’s editorial page as place where, “the marketplace of ideas is very much alive and well.”
Columnist John David Dyche said that he has written a bi-weekly column for the Louisville Courier-Journal for about a decade. He quit last week after editors refused to publish an opinion piece questioning the publication’s apparent liberal bias.
Dyche says he quit after Pam Platt, the paper’s editorial director, spiked the piece.
The C-J has been losing money for a good while now, I stopped getting them 7 years ago, they are a joke.

Hey! Don’t be trashing my Bluegrass Music now
I’m a HUGE rock & Roll nut as well as many formats.
Speaking of gas prices
Anyone else notice that the used to be full or 3/4 full parking lots at your local Wal-Mart is now about 1/4 full? Wal-Mart is now seeing steady decreases is sales as gas goes up each dime. Its over 4 here now and some places around $4.35 this morning
I check HLN to see what Robin Meade was covering and I’m “lucky” to come upon an ad for the channel’s coverage of the Jodi Arias trial “with updates throughout the day on HLN and on HLN.com”. (Robin Meade was covering something else.)

I haven’t been to a Walmart in months, but parking is now easy to find along the main downtown street during what had always been the busiest hours of the day.
Gooood Morning!!
Well here we go AGAIN!!!!! I just got inside the office after shoveling another 4 inches off of the sidewalks and sets of stairs!!! I am reeeeeeal tired of this now!!!!!!

@Ratboy
Dude, some in here say all you post is invalid data
@AppleStinx
I live close to Bardstown Rd. one of the busiest in Kentucky, I have noticed a lack of traffic myself.
@Ratboy
Hope your sitting down, some long range computer models are showing the next several winters to be among the coldest and snowiest in decades. NASA says the sun will go into a dormant stage for 30 years. Give it time dude, they will start the we’re going back to the Ice Age junk as they did in the 70’s.

The global warming loons will not be happy with this and it could be cause of some name calling directed at you as they DO enjoy shooting the messenger!!
@Ratboy
calling directed at you as they DO enjoy shooting the messenger!!
I’m a minister, I’m used to it
Some charts showed that last summer was the peak heating cycle due to the sun being hyperactive, more active it is the hotter the summers, the sun is due to hit a quiet 30 year domant cycle, this does not happen very often but has in the past.
When it has there have actually been whats called a mini-age ages. The concern of scientist is after that 30 year period and the warming starts it could be even hotter than previous summers in a active cycle.
OK class thats the science lesson for today
@Coffee Steve Apple Stinx Walmart admits sales are down since the first of the year , they are plan or reducing prices,(more cheap stuff from china), also burger king going to reduce the whopper Jr. to 1.29, a few years ago you get a whopper jr for a dollar. Don’t worry all is well no inflation. That’s what Uncle Ben tell us.
@Mickey O
I have said many times Inflation is being disguised very well. Smaller portions in smaller packages, same or slightly higher price. It’s at the point I don’t believe any numbers from the Government. They have fixed and changed so many guidelines on what they count and don’t count anymore, nothing can be figured.
I like the fact that even with gas going from $1.80 pg to above $4, and they say that hasn’t affected the cost of living prices. The Government plays people for fools anymore.
@Ratboy
This better make you smile, and yes it DID happen
We’re sitting at a local restaurant last night, an 8 or 9 year old boy comes up with a pen and pad and says “Can I have your autograph”? I said sure, he says “I’m sorry sir I meant from her” (Daughter) ROTFLMBO
Weird how after all these months and I left the station we still get people who remember. I have even grown a deeper stash and beard too.
Another well thought out part of Obamacare and another cause for negative effect!!!! But the loons keep on saying this is the saving grace of a lifetime!!!!

Why your boss is dumping your wife
Companies are dropping health coverage for spouses to cut costs
Companies have a new solution to rising health-insurance costs: Break up their employees’ marriages.
By denying coverage to spouses, employers not only save the annual premiums, but also the new fees that went into effect as part of the Affordable Care Act. This year, companies have to pay $1 or $2 “per life” covered on their plans, a sum that jumps to $65 in 2014. And health law guidelines proposed recently mandate coverage of employees’ dependent children (up to age 26), but husbands and wives are optional. “The question about whether it’s obligatory to cover the family of the employee is being thought through more than ever before,” says Helen Darling, president of the National Business Group on Health
