City of Lawrence begins using new automated trash truck
Or there will be an extra charge. One of the reasons we liked Lawrence trash service was the fact they would pick up most anything left on the curb, if you called a told them ahead of the pick-up. Better that than finding items in the county ditches.

City of Lawrence begins using new automated trash truck
Also wonder what the life span is on the carts that are lifted by the arm. We have a spot with the neighbor that, because of traffic, is safer for the men to handle both carts, but probably won't have the three foot clearance though. Truck will have to stop in the heavy traffic part of the street corner to have a "clear spot".

Simons' Saturday Column: Menards again reveals city’s stunted retail thinking
I would love to have Menard's next to Home Depot. Could have a visit from the NASCAR # 27 Menard's car. Also give some competition to Home Depot. Bought whole house carpet from HD and their contractors installed it wrong. Since they were independents, got no satisfaction from HD. They couldn't even tell who they were. We continually find what we need at Menard's. (In Topeka)!

Lawrence man punched in face by stranger on Massachusetts Street
I have another source that states 83.725% of statistics are made up on-the-spot. Who you going to believe? :)

Kobach testifies against immigration bill before U.S. Senate committee
Seems to me Kris Kobach is a made-up name. Anyone check that out yet?

City seeking grant money to improve 23rd and Haskell intersection in preparation for increased traffic from SLT

Opinion: Congress’ power wanes; executive gains
No matter which party is in charge of the Executive branch, nothing changes. Conservatives run on small government, but neither Reagan or Bush were able to slow government's growth. Bush added to the debt big time by two unfunded wars with taxpayer money being ripped-off by private sector crony "takers".

Ceremony to remember unique Lawrence figure
I'm one of those people honored to have met him on the sidewalk. He is one of those you don't realize what a treasure Lawrence had until they are gone.

Letter: Misplaced anger
+10 When clarified, there was more to this incident than "not taking personal responsibility". I certainly would have been upset also.
