Mayor McCheese Gives In to the Arse Bandits...

"I've lived in Lexington for 35 years. Nothing of consequence ever happened on that block.”--Lexington’s Mayor Jim Newberry on WKYT’s “Kentucky Newsmakers,” March 14, 2009.

With all the local ire being raised over Mayor Newberry's statement regarding the now demolished Dame Block (the Webb Brothers' wet-dream-turned nightmare), it's time to think about politicians and how quickly what they think are clever quips become their notorious legacy. This statement does nothing more than further Newberry's unpopularity -- it makes me wonder why we elect people who are obviously so indifferent to the people's will.

Maybe it's the view they have; maybe they need some exposure to a better light; maybe, just maybe, they put their head where the sun don't shine...

An archaeological team, digging in Washington DC , has recently uncovered what is believed to be the fossil remains of the first politician to have ruled some 10,000 years ago.

Although at the time of this writing, the team is not 100% certain, based on the few clues that have been uncovered thus far, combined with the physical positioning of the skeletal remains, all indications point to the fact that this assumption is valid.

Lead Archaeologist Hans Mcgworkin could not be reached for comment at the time of release, but a spokesman for the team, speaking on condition of anonymity is quoted as saying that "It is 99.9% certain that what we have discovered is in fact one of the first politicians known to man based on the existing evidence that is currently available."

Further research is underway, the results of which will be released as it becomes available....
