Arkansas should dump some lt. gov, state treasurer

I rarely buy arguments that a smaller government is a better government, but the ongoing investigation into questionable investment practices in the office of Martha Shoffner, Arkansas's Democratic state treasurer, reminds us that there are a few places where some governmental shrinkage would create a smarter way to do government in the early 21st century.

Re: “Rare booze in Central Arkansas”

While I am happy to see Pappy get its due, I also get irritated when people announce widely where it can be found. I like keeping that information to myself because I have no interest in sharing. Thankfully it can be found outside of CapBar. I'll never tell...

Re: “Arkansas priority: Jockdom”

Find me a liberal arts professor that administers a multi-million dollar budget, serves as a de facto University spokesperson before a national audience, and is held to 24-hour scrutiny in public forums from the Internet to television to radio to print.

Gay TV producer at center of Imboden controversy to speak in LR

* REMEMBER IMBODEN? MEET THE MAN IN THE MIDDLE OF IT: I was happy to get this Facebook note today from Bryant Huddleston, the Imboden native and California TV producer, whose tentative invitation to speak at the Sloan-Hendrix High School graduation fell apart because a couple of School Board members (and many in the community apparently) didn't think it right to have a gay man speak to high school graduates, who included his sister.

'A Loss of Roses' a stunner

Before last Friday night, the saddest, most "depressing" Depression-era story I had read was Horace McCoy's "They Shoot Horses, Don't They?" However, after watching The Arkansas Repertory Theatre's opening performance of William Inge's "A Loss of Roses," I can attest that this play is as rough and unflinching as that Depression-era tale, or any other.

Loy Mauch update: The Republican rep is on record on slavery, too

Perhaps U.S. Rep. Tim Griffin might want to reconsider his earlier decision not to include Republican Rep. Loy Mauch on the list of Republican candidates he'd asked not to use his campaign contributions, having read some of what they'd written.
