Couple of things
- I get more and more confused by gray water with each passing day. Usage outside is prohibited by the state, however state officials are not telling folks it's OK to use a little bit of gray water outside despite no change in the state code and you can't use it if you're under a total watering ban. Also, while gray water usage inside is permitted, having a plumbing system which automatically recyles said water in your house is illegal under state law ... but, then again, state officials said local officials could pass ordinances that don't reflect that.
- Speaking of that, my reading of my water meter says I'm down, while the public utilities folks think otherwise ... and I'm not alone in this situation from what I'm hearing.
- It looks like we're going to need some outside-the-box thinking to fund the proposed career academy, and I'm getting kinda curious about the grant being turned down. It'll be interesting to see the rationale offered, though I concede there was considerable competition.
- Further proving that he's a fairly swarmy individual, NBA Commissioner David Stern lambasts the Seattle city government, the Washington state legislature and the citizenry of Seattle for overwhelmingly passing a bill that "requires any funds to help build an arena earn money at the same rate as a treasury bill." I'm not a big fan of publically financed stadiums either, or at least stadiums solely build with public funds, but whatever. It seems a tad ridiculous that Stern would openly disparage the people of Seattle and their wishes, and then threaten to support taking their basketball team away. I thought he had his hands full with cheating refs ...
- Flack points out some flaws with the Glenn Tax's funding formula. He's not alone with lingering questions as Brian Brodrick doesn't like it either.
- Mitch McConnell reveals that he's completely detached from reality.
- This 'Blackout' talk is getting kinda crazy. Walking up North Campus today, I passed two students talking about it, one of whom said 'No dude, I heard that Richt ordered them back in February because they were planning on doing this all along.'
- Related to that, this is the best Georgia-Auburn preview I've read all week. Anything with copious Mr. T. references is gold. Also awesome is this.
