"Same Case," Different Result: What Gives?

The Washington Court of Appeals, Division Three, decided another case dealing with whether the Washington Public Disclosure Act (RCW Ch. 42.56) applies to non-public entities which provide government services at the behest of the government.

Take a Trip to Mississippi. If you want to have some fun in and about Mississippi, take a trip to a blog called Folo. This entry into the written word in the ether is interesting and frustrating.

River Park Square Redux. The Cowles Family and their newspaper, The Spokesman-Review, are congratulating themselves on an award the paper got a few days ago.

If you think I am wrong, step back, distance yourself for a moment and look around. One would be hard pressed to deny the fact of our excess. And think of this: The rest of the world seems intent upon the same lifestyle of excess. How can anyone logically conclude things are moving in a good direction?
