Wicked Broadband project seeks $500,000 city grant; downtown hotel project seeks adjustment to incentives package; historical society seeks $20k for new exhibit
NO NO NO to more spending, even though I have a soft-spot for the historical society request, I just paid my property taxes and am broke. If the hotel is going to be such a lucrative investment they don't need my help. If the broadband service is going to be so popular they don't need my help. How bout we all send in what we can to pay for the historical exhibit and we call it a day? I say there should be a spending freeze this summer so we can all take a deserved vacation. I don't know about the rest of my fellow Lawrencians but I could use a break from all this money talk.

Truancy policies can catch parents by surprise
There was an excellent article in Family Circle about the importance of teaching children punctuality. Children that develop tendencies to be tardy have less success later in life. Not to mention the distraction to other children when a child constantly arrives late.
If tardies shouldn't be at issue why don't we just cancel school hours and tell kids to show up when they want?

Simons' Saturday Column: Menards again reveals city’s stunted retail thinking
Here, here! I agree. I am still upset that Lawrence rejected Whole foods and I will be shopping there in Topeka instead of close to home.
