Sales tax collection down

Maybe the people in charge shouldn't allocate what little money we do have for a place where turnpike travelers can let their dog take a dump. How much is currently allocated to that? What, $15k/yr for the next three years? Is that correct?

Matt

It's a great day in the Laghman Province!

A Rush of irony

Commissioners look down the road

I feel the only way to get real change in any government (local or federal) is a forcible takeover through arms.

Man accused of killing family

YY4U,

I agree 100% with making this guy an organ donor! Great idea!

Now... Who's gonna pay for the anesthetic? What's that, no one? That's ok too!

Also, if you plan on participating in a search party, please be informed this man is a convicted criminal, and could very possibly be armed and dangerous. I do hope they find this person, but PLEASE, use caution and don't go looking for him. Leave that to local law enforcement.

Hey, maybe the person he stole "at least 1K less than 25K," found him.

Deserve protection

"I don't think there is a week that goes by where I don't hear "I don't want to go back to ----- , this is the best jail I've had to stay in"

AWWW! Isn't that sweet! It sure is good to know that criminals like staying in the Lyon County jail! Do you leave them mints on their pillows every morning after you make their beds?

I would think you would want them to hate that place more than anything else on Earth, in hopes they don't want to come back, ala Maricopa Count Jail, in Arizona. You know, the one where the county spends more on food for the guard dogs than the inmates? Yeah, that would be good.

Plans for entrance signs hit snag

Don't get me wrong, I appreciate what Bowyer has done for the community, but come on Zimmerman, don't gag on it.

Not worth the debt

Well, looks like another visit from the good-idea fairy! First the stupid and senseless smoking ban, then the genius idea for the completely idiotic visitor's center, and now spending almost $2 million dollars we don't have to put artificial turf on a 5-A Kansas high school football field. I think in Emporia, 2009 will be remembered as the year of the moron! Did everyone in power (or at least thinks they are in power) lose their fricking minds (except Mike Helbert)?

By the way, real men play football on real grass.
