Beaver Envy spotted in Adair County, KY Yes, they are the Animal du jour, but The Holler is a floral paradise, even without this noble creature. Click on headline for Spring Scenes from The Holler There's a hint of turmoil in Adair County since the early morning post of B.J. Fudge's paper on Traditional Beaver Lodge in a non-Traditional setting, and it's bad: Beaver Envy. Shamarie Claiborne acknowledges no knowledge of any of the entertaining engineers in The Holler: I see beavers are a top priority today... that is one thing The Holler doesn't have.... Beavers -- SCSome would call her lucky. A pair of healthy beavers could turn The Holler into a Dale Hollow sized Lake of the Ozark, just as an elite Corps of Beaver Engineers once threatened Ray Williams Hill by damming up Neatsville. Anyway, at least she keeps her sense of humor, and sends photos of a more serene nature. -CM 2012-03-25 09:47:00 | Comments | Printable version

Carol Perkins: At the end of the day For her, even in 'retirement,' every day has to be one of accomplishment The next earlier Carol Perkins column: Carol Perkins: English teachers By Carol Perkins As I watch UK and Western Thursday night, I couldn't help but think what it would have been like to have sold every person in that arena a shirt! Yes, my mind goes straight to shirts and to marketing. Does a person's job soon become her identity? When I was thinking of a name for my business (once Uptown Designs and now Main Street Screenprinting), I almost went with "The Shirt Lady." I thought it was cute, catchy, and memorable, but then when I ran this by Guy, he turned up his nose. "Do you want to be known as the shirt lady?" Didn't bother me but evidently he thought it trite.
