Daily News for Sunday, March 16, 2008
Columbians affected by the Atlanta tornado With one photo By Ed Waggener Apparently, several Adair Countians were affected by the storm in Atlanta on Friday.. Among reports which are coming in are the following:First, there was this letter. To Ed, ColumbiaMagazine.comThe story in The Constitution tells about Columbian Mike Curry's experience in the tornado at the SEC tournament. With the Columbia connection, it is a very interesting read. Secondly, we've received a photo of the home of Jon and Sara Michelotto, who live in downtown Atlanta. A huge tree in their yard was toppled and damaged one set of front stairs of their house. Sara Michelotto is the daughter of Debra and Tom Wimmer of Columbia, KY. We understand other Adair Countians were there as well. We'd love to hear their stories, too. - EW 2008-03-16 17:25:57 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback

Coomer owned and where he lived when he was a child. It was at Gradyville, if it is the Dr. Nell farm. He believes it to still be standing. At the time, my husband's family lived on a tenant farm nearby. s/Judy Corbin Click Here to see an old photo of the house, with a story about the Gradyville Flood by Geniece Marcum.

GIGO Diary, for 2008-03-15: What to compost Barbara Armitage has explained in the past few articles how to recycle. Today, she starts a list of what to recycle. And confesses she was once disobedient to subdivision restrictions and never got caught, even though they should have noticed she had the prettiest flowers on the block.

Posted 2008-03-16 I am hoping that at least a few of you went out this morning in search of fencing to make your compost pile. Mother Nature even cooperated this afternoon giving us a few hours of sunshine to complete your project. Right about now you may be beginning to wonder if this was such a good idea after all. Many people tell me that they don't understand how I can have a garbage dump in my back yard.

Tom Chaney reviews God's Problem; March 16, 2008 Of Writers and Their Books (151): Review,God's Problem:How the Bible Fails to Answer Our Most Important Question -- Why We Suffer. William J. Coughlin [Harper, 2008] By Tom Chaney bookstore@scrtc.com Just Live With It A great many reasons caused me to be selling books in 2008 and not beating the drum ecclesiastic in some Baptist pulpit. One of those reasons is typified by a play I saw in 1959 in New York City. Christopher Plummer was playing J.B. in Archibald MacLeish's play of the same name. The title character is based on the biblical Job in the book by that name. Four of us had set out for Canada and New York after a summer working in the Everyman Players production of "The Book of Job" in Pineville [Kentucky].
