Shelby The Shill Worsens The Main Street Meltdown
2008-11-19 20:55:00 The AP (via Time Magazine) tells us the following here (and I also posted briefly over here on a separate topic)?(WASHINGTON) ? The senior Republican on the Banking Committee said Wednesday he doesn't believe there will be a turnaround in the troubled U.S. auto industry until its top management is ousted and its manufacturing operations are revamped."I don't think they have immediate plans to change their model, which is a model of failure," Sen. Richard Shelby said, a day after the top executives of General Motors, Ford and Chrysler came to Congress to plead for a $25 billion "bridge loan" to avert layoffs and plant closings. "I think a lot of it will be life support," Shelby, R-Ala., said. "I believe their best option would be some type of Chapter 11 bankruptcy ... These leaders have been failures and they need to go."Wow, that?s some harsh talk (and not entirely undeserved, I must say).Well then, since the financial meltdown precipitated the credit crunch that imperiled the aut...
Palin Connects with Main Street, Biden with Washington
2008-10-03 06:18:00 I watched the debate with a blog-reader who has become a friend, almost like an older sister to me. She’s a mother, with three grown sons. We were both nervous about how our lady would do tonight. As a political geek who loves debating policy and ideas, I thought Joe Biden won this on points. At ...

U.S. Senator Mocks The System

Walking Down Main Street
2008-04-17 15:23:00 This post has languished for about three weeks now -- I meant to do it right after I went on the walk it details, but something or other kept getting in the way. And now, here it is, much later and not quite as fresh.A few things coming at about the same time spurred me to walk down Decatur Street -- fruitless hunting for the site of the old city jail (well, not totally fruitless, it was on one of the corners of Decatur and Piedmont, but not sure which one and in any case I don't think there's any traces); coming across the webpage for the book "The First Eight," which describes Decatur Street as a hub of old Atlanta African-American life; and the Atlanta Time Machine posting this 1950 map, which I actually printed out and used as a reference. Then, doing some hunting through the (metaphorical) stacks, I found a 1991 article by AJC writer Colin Campbell, taking a break from the NHL, describing a similar walk down Decatur.Decatur Street passes all through Atlanta and beyond; you ge...

Wall Street or Main Street?
2008-03-21 13:30:00 Watch this to be the BIG campaign theme in 2008 in local and national races around the country. * GOP - fighting for Wall Street. * Dems - fighting for Main Street. Watch the Dems up the ante on foreclosure bailout plans. Watch McCain have no idea what to do. And watch Bush's popularity rating fall into the single digits as he goes Herbert Hoover.I'm against ANY type of bailout plan using taxpayer funds, for bankers or housing gamblers, so I'm against BOTH the GOP and Dems on this one. They both want to spend our money, it's just a question of who gets it.I will fight Obama when he stupidly promotes a bailout. And Clinton just offered another $30 billion today - watch her keep upping that number. Poor McCain just avoids the whole issue, since economics just ain't his thing.But in terms of general theme, watch this 'Wall Street vs. Main Street' theme really take off now, and watch the housing crash be the #1 issue in November by far.

Speaking of Main Street - Why is this Box Building OK in Eastmoor?
2008-02-28 02:29:00 Since the city has finished up the South of Main Sewer project in Eastmoor, I’ve been driving by this soon-to-be auto parts store (and one-time site of Columbus’ last Skyline Chili) almost every day and wondering why in the world it’s OK to build the equivalent of a giant pole barn on East Main Street in Eastmoor. I’ve recently had a good number of buyers interested in the Eastmoor area. Eastmoor is a fantastic community with great homes, decent $/sf and a sense of pride. They have a strongish civic association but the lack of checks and balances at City Hall allows ugly projects like this to built this close to the city center. I can’t imagine this eyesore is what the city of Columbus had in mind when they, almost a year ago, approved the Eastmoor Main and Broad Corridor Revitalization Plan in an attempt to guide the redevelopment of those critical commercial corridors. When I drove by the other d...
Can Save A Lot Save Main Street?
2008-02-27 19:23:00 A while back, Columbus Compact had announced that Save A Lot, the country’s 5th largest supermarket, was coming to Main Street. Then, about a year ago, they announced they were not coming to Main Street. In part, that decision was made because Wal Mart opened up in Whitehall on Main Street. Well, it appears Save a Lot is back, in the same location at 1179 E. Main — the old Kroger/Salvation Army site. Expected to open some time this summer, it’ll be about a 16,000 s.f. store offering standard supermarket fare of fruits, veggies, fish, butcher cut meats, dairy, canned foods, dry goods, frozen foods, etc. They have high buying power and low prices. Jon Beard of Columbus Compact has said they expect the store to generate between 2,500 and 3,000 shopping trips a week. I agree with him that those numbers are the type of customer traffic that helps other retailers to thrive, and could be instrumental i...
The Day I Cruised Down Main Street Blasting Handel with the Windows Rolled
2008-02-21 15:55:00 I was driving out to work yesterday and came to a stop at a - you know - stop light. Someone pulled up to my right and I noticed his presence immediately. This is because he had his windows rolled down and was playing Ludacris' "Ludacrismas" * with the volume up all the way and the bass booster even higher.* You have to listen past the first 30 seconds to really get the idea."How thoughtful of this kind gentleman!" I said to myself. "Here he's not only providing himself with music; he's providing it free of charge to everyone within three city blocks! Some of them probably don't have radios and wish they could listen to Ludacris more often."The light turned green and the driver to my left moved out ahead of me. I noticed as he went by that he was wearing a doo-rag over a baseball cap over a beanie and had a massive gold chain dangling around his neck. His license plate read: IRGANGSTA.Touched by this anonymous fellow's simple gesture, I drove on and worked my shift. On the way ...

Route 66: The Main Street of America
2008-02-19 01:06:00 Route 66 first entered the general public conscience in 1939 when California writer John Steinbeck published his novel ?The Grapes of Wrath?, detailing the westward migration of Oklahoma's Dust Bowl farmers to California's San Joaquin Valley. During the story, he refers to Route 66 as the ?Mother Road?, a nickname it still has today. When Steinbeck won the Pulitzer Prize for his novel, the road became even more famous. The highway also gave its name to a popular television show, ?Route 66?, broadcast during the early sixties in the United States. The show featured two young men looking for adventure along America?s highways and was clearly inspired by passages from ?On the Road? by Jack Kerouac, his book describing several cross country adventures undertaken in the 1940s. The book has since become a literary staple for any would-be road trippers and has inspired countless journeys down Route 66. Starting in the 1950s and continuing gradually over the next 25 years, old Route 66 wa...
