South Side Update
Tuesday night was the regular meeting of the Culver Plan Commission. The only agenda item was a replatting of the Rhodes property, combining several lots into one. This passed with little question.
Under “Public Input”, John Zehner presented his plans to change the use of the Ten Spot to a restaurant and motel. The presentation wasn’t required, but was more of a courtesy, keeping the Plan Commission apprised of the change in use. The Plan Commission also supported this proposal.
I took the opportunity to plant some seeds regarding the development on the south side of Culver, basically outlining the thoughts I had previously presented here. I was pleased that the Plan Commission was fairly receptive. They agreed to consider most of what I suggested. I truly think this is an opportunity for the Town to get out in front of some issues and encourage the type of development they would like to see. They are considering forming a subcommittee to look into this with the idea that the subcommittee would try and form community partnerships and foster buy-in. All in all a very positive evening!

I don’t know if I would have passed this test or not. I got distracted and didn’t finish it. <rim shot> Anyway… I ran across this test in Bottom Line Personal, February 15, 2011. I actually scored a four, so I guess I’m borderline. Not something that comes as a surprise to me! If you’re still reading and haven’t clicked on to the next site, you might want to take the test.

One of my new favorite online cartoonists, Doug Savage has a site, www.savagechickens.com, where all his cartoons are drawn in a sticky note format similar to the one above. Check him out!

Pulverizer
We can’t all be Tim Taylor of Home Improvement or worse, the reality version, Norm Abram from This Old House. You know these guys. They have every tool known to man… and often a few they created on their own.
This doesn’t mean that there isn’t something to having the right tool for the job. Case in point, the Pulverizer is a 3.3 lb demolition hammer with a 1-1/2″ hammer face and two prying faces with serrations for improved bite. Couple this with a rubberized grip to cushion your hand from jarring blows. This is a compact tool that will do a lot of damage on your next demolition project. (Insert your own Tim Taylor simian grunts here.)
Available from Amazon.com for $34.99, it is a fairly economical, heavy duty tool.
