But neither Brendan nor John wrote the entry. I did. http://www.c-ville.com/index.php?cat=1992104083495395&act=addcm&pid=12023004083638053 http://www.c-ville.com/index.php?cat=1992104083495395&act=addcm&pid=11992204084173487 While I was standing around, having my post-edit-meeting coffee, a man walked up to bum a cigarette and a couple quarters. http://www.c-ville.com/index.php?cat=1992104083495395&act=addcm&pid=11992204084173487 http://www.c-ville.com/index.php?cat=1992104083495395&act=addcm&pid=11992404083024102 Real estate blogger Jim Duncan helpfully provides some context to the story I wrote on the rising home prices around in Charlottesville and Albemarle's urban ring as sales continue to sag. http://www.c-ville.com/index.php?cat=1992104083495395&act=addcm&pid=11992404083024102 http://www.c-ville.com/index.php?cat=1992104083495395&act=addcm&pid=11992404081167290 Does your senator hate women? http://www.c-ville.com/index.php?cat=1992104083495395&act=addcm&pid=11992404081167290 http://www.c-ville.com/index.php?cat=1992104083495395&act=addcm&pid=11992504084125816 Sure, New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg might have his own global news service, but he ain't got shit on Charlottesville Mayor Dave Norris, who not only writes a blog, he also hosts a public-access T.V. show. http://www.c-ville.com/index.php?cat=1992104083495395&act=addcm&pid=11992504084125816 http://www.c-ville.com/index.php?cat=1992104083495395&act=addcm&pid=11992804083464991 Democrat Mark Warner, candidate for the U.S. Senate seat that Republican John Warner (no relation) will soon vacate, is coming to Charlottesville. http://www.c-ville.com/index.php?cat=1992104083495395&act=addcm&pid=11992804083464991 http://www.c-ville.com/index.php?cat=1992104083495395&act=addcm&pid=11992904081060729 Regarding my old (and overly quick) post on the U.S. Senate's vote on Ledbetter v.
