Jesse T. Correll gives new graduates strong financial advice, but tells audience 'relationship with God most important'

By Ashley Zsedenyi, CU staff writer

CAMPBELLSVILLE, KY - "Debt is bad; saving is good; giving is fun; and stuff is meaningless," Jesse T. Correll, founder and chairman of the board for First Southern Bancorp Inc., told Campbellsville University's graduates Saturday at Powell Athletic Center."I always wanted to be a businessman...but I only had one goal. I wanted to be extremely rich," Correll said as he challenged graduates to "accumulate no debt" because "living paycheck to paycheck is a dangerous gamble."

Black shepherd with very special markings found in Bliss area

Hi everyone...

This is Spud Gisclair from Gradyville. You may remember me from last year when I lost my dad after a bad storm and everyone in Gradyville helped me find him. I want to thank everyone again for getting us reunited. This is me relaxing in my Dad's chair.

Well, now I need your help again, but not to find my dad!

On Friday, May 8, 2009, my Mom rescued a beautiful black shepherd that was injured on Hwy 80 between JB Patterson Road and Lampton Lane... basically east of Gradyville, KY near the Bliss area. This shepherd has special markings like no other I have seen and appears to have been very well taken care of. If you are missing your pet or know of anyone who is missing theirs, please contact my mom at (270) 378-5069 or (270) 250-8663. She is being well taken care of and I'm sure her she would like to be reunited with her family.

Thanks for your help,

s/Spud Gisclair

Town Square Park would be great

About: "Downtown won't return to glory days until it is made safe

To ColumbiaMagazine.com:

Again I am thinking a town square park would be great for our community.

Of course, safety is our first consideration.

Bring back our downtown charm with some shops and parking available on the square.

I see the same autos parked everyday on the square..leading me to believe it is the business owners, employees. Even with a two hour limit there is never anybody on the streets. Yet there are no parking spaces.
