Commentary by Ralph R. Waggener: City taxes and county taxes

By Ralph Roy Waggener, Editor and Publisher, It's Just for a Smile News
Personal Commentary

Seems a lot of people don't understand county taxes and Columbia city taxes.

Columbia does not get road work from the county; it has its own road department paid for from Columbia city taxes.

All Adair county tax money for roads comes from county taxes paid for by both Columbia residents as well as county tax payers.

Tamara Rowell writes: Why all roads should have same priority

Personal opinion of the writer

This is Tamara Rowell and the reason all roads should be treated equally is because every life in the county matters and if there is an emergency even out here on West 80 and the roads are not clear then there is no way for help to get out here and we do have some older folks out here and if we can get help, then it means we don't matter and the trucks can take a trip out to the rural every two to three trips in town just to help not just the people, but our law enforcement that live in the rural areas cause a lot of them live out here, too; so it would only make sense to do all the roads and for every business in town, there are still consumers that live out here, too; so i guess what I'm saying is, if you don't want our money, then leave us snowed in; and if we don't matter then why do we pay for the town of Columbia. Thank you, - Tamara Rowell

Kelvin Bailey: County dweller appreciates clearing priorities

Kelvin Bailey writes:
Why wouldn't the road crews clear the streets in town before they get to 80 West? For every person who lives on 80 West, there are 50 who live in town. For every business or service located on 80 West, there are 100 in town. Very few people are scraping off their windshields and shoveling their driveways today in effort to get to 80 West. It seems to me it would be in severe lack of judgment and priorities to clear 80 West before town. - Kelvin Bailey (Lesser Fairplay)

Snow silently stacked, hung on shepherd's crook. A CM Short


Birdseed went out first thing this morning. An inch of snow quickly covered it over before any birds braved the weather. As the day progressed, birds could be seen sneaking in after the cats ate their food under the carport. The crumbs left by the cats made for perfect bird bits so all got fed. As the bird feeder sat untouched all day, the wind carved the steadily falling snow into a perfect block of ice. - Linda

Cool Springs: Feeling bad for the critters! And their farmers

Click on headline for letter with photo(s)

By Guy Babin

Some farmers talk tough, because mostly, they are. Most farmers with livestock; those worth a flip that is, care much more for their animals than they might tell over coffee at the D&F Grocery.

Those farmers typically don't so much get attached to their animals, but a bond does form as they take care of them day and night, through birth and death, both drought and blizzard.

District 4 Road Conditions: 2:30pm (Eastern) Update

by Chris Jessie
KY Transportation Cabinet District 4

We have two crashes impacting traffic on Southbound I65. One crash is in Hardin County near the Exit 94 interchange in Elizabethtown. One lane is open. We being advised by KSP to expect 45minutes to an hour to completely clear. The second crash is at the 74 Mile Marker in Hart County. All lanes are blocked at this location but workers are trying to clear and reopen as soon as possible.

Snow is will falling but intensity is decreased in many areas. Still, we expect accumulating snow to continue through the afternoon and into the evening.

As we lose daylight, it will be even more important that motorists who must travel slow down and maintain plenty of space for maneuverability. As we've been saying all along, travel is not advised.

Senator Max Wise's Legislative Update: 22 Jan 2016

By KY Senator Max Wise, KY-16
Personal Commentary


Although week three of the General Assembly was short due to the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday and the inclement weather Friday, the Kentucky Senate passed significant bills and welcomed visitors who braved the snow in Frankfort.

On Tuesday we passed two of our priority bills: Senate Bill (SB) 4 and SB 10. SB 4 would require those seeking an abortion to have a face-to-face, in-person counseling session with a physician 24 hours prior to the procedure. This effort to promote the rights of the unborn passed with bipartisan support.

Senate Bill 10 would move statewide constitutional elections to even-numbered years. Final passage of SB 10 would save the Commonwealth and its counties an estimated $20 million per election cycle. Research has also shown that hundreds of thousands of additional Kentucky voters participate in elections during even-numbered years, as opposed to odd-numbered years. The measure would not extend Governor Bevin's current, four-year term.

Ice & Snow spark memory of his young & invincible USAF days

By Charles Marshburn

Strange how a little ice and snow can spark a memory, but at 6:10AM a memory was brought about by the change of little ice pellets to snow.

It was 1968 in Great Falls, MT, not too long after the UFO incident there. I was called in the middle of the night to report to the base for a computer war game exercise.

Mike Pape to officially file for Congressional run today

Latest candidate to file has backing of incumbent, Rep. Ed Whitfield. Michael Pape served as Whitfield's District Director for 21 years. His agenda is in most ways identical to Mr. Whitfields. He does, however, run with a self-imposed term limit of 12 years, and promises to join a band of some "40 other members of Congress who sleep in their office and return home as soon as the last vote is cast."
This morning, 22 Jan 2016, the KY Secretary of State Alison Lundergan Grimes office website at apps.sos.ky.gov/elections/candidatefilings/statewide/default.aspx?id=4 lists four Republicans filed: Jason Batts, Miles A. Caughey, James R. Comer, and Mike Pape for the Republican nomination, and Samuel L. Gaskins, Hopkinsville, KY for the Democratic nomination. NOTE to readers in the future, CM does not know how long link will work.

FRANKFORT, KY - Michael Pape, former District Director for Congressman Ed Whitfield (R-KY-01), and now candidate for Congress to replace the retiring Whitfield will filed his official documents with the Kentucky Secretary of State Thursday, January 21, 2016, at 12:30pmCT/1:30pmET. Pape said, "Today I officially become a candidate to be the next United States Representative of the First Congressional District. I have dedicated the last 21 years to serving the people of the First District as Congressman Whitfield's District Director. I made sure their voice was heard in Washington. I kicked open the doors of the federal government for the people of this District when Washington bureaucrats and career politicians tried to close them, and I worked every day to reaffirm my abiding belief that we have a government of the people by the people and for the people.

Wayfaring Stranger comments on Russell Co. wet vote

The Wayfaring Stranger
Very Personal Comments of the Wayfaring Stranger
"The natural position of woman is clearly, to a limited degree, a subordinate one. Such it has always been throughout the world, in all ages, and in many widely different conditions of society." - (From "Female Suffrage. A Letter to the Christian Women of America. Part I," Susan F. Cooper, 1870.)
Without a doubt, many faces in Russell County this snowy January day are still longer than the Mississippi River is wide in the wake of Tuesday's somewhat stunning pro-wet vote. Without a doubt too, many on the losing side were guided by their conscience in their efforts to keep Russell County dry (in the legal sense but not in any sense connected to reality).
