Newman projects move forward

Gosh, I can do better budgeting on Quicken at home than these people are doing with their fancy programs and computers. Wow - I've never heard the like and they seem so lackadasical about it. I don't want to give them any tax money to waste - I need my money for worthwhile things - like food and gas.

Hospital asks for 3.5 mills in tax dollars

I think updating the MRI is a good thing - it is a safe bet ours is too old with technology moving as fast as it is. Updating and redoing a cath lab is just flat asinine. It didn't work the first time and Emporia even had a cardiologist living here, Dr. Sheriff. There was no cooperation by the anesthesia group, referring physicians, or patients because there wasn't any way to do further intervention if the cath procedure indicated some was needed. At least Dr. Bosiljevac used it for some vascular studies but now even he is gone. NRH needs to concentrate on what is needed - not wishful thinking that they need to run with the big dogs in Topeka and Wichita. We need a sports orthopedic surgeon in town - we need a full time urologist and an ear, nose and throat doc. Concentrate on getting those people here and marketing their services so they will be used. When is Emporia in general going to figure out we are not a BIG town anymore - we are a smaller community who really isn't doing very well. Ratchet down the pie in the sky dreams and concentrate on what we can do well right now.

New bid on table for Lowthers

I think they should stick with the first offer they agreed on - it is only fair. They at least have a plan for the buildings - apartments,etc. All I can see from this other group's plan is a building that will stay empty - there are already plenty of empty buildings around for philanthropic activities.

Meet the candidate

Thanks for putting that outing together, Steve. It was a good meet and greet. I would have liked more specifics about Tom's plans for Kansas but believe his heart is in the right place. And best of all - he is better than Brownback - that man is too scary ! ! !

City allows church to demolish neighboring home

I think if the church has that kind of money - they could put it to better use than buying houses to tear down. Maybe adopt some needy children, give to the salvation army food bank, - you know - charitable things. Just saying....
