NWA Times: You're not a candidate till we say you are?
Kind of interesting to read in the NWA Times about the upcoming - not to mention exciting - mayoral race in Fayetteville. Oddly enough, every candidate but one - Adam Fire Cat - got mentioned in the article.
Looks like the Times is aping the attitude of the national media, as in “We’ll decide who is a legitimate candidate around here.”
That is just so not cool.

Here I am, to save the day!
Yes, rumors are flying back and forth - at least among us gossip mongers - that Brother Dan Coody is looking over the field of candidates and finding them not up to par, thus making it necessary for a third run at the mayor’s office.
No doubt Dan believes he will be greeted as some sort of, oh, I don’t know, liberator?

Farewell, Roy Nastasi
Looking over the papers upon our return to Fayetteville, I read of the death of Roy Nastasi. I didn’t know Roy very well, but our paths often crossed at Fayetteville Open Channel and Access 4 Fayetteville (C.A.T.’s original name) when he would come in and talk about upcoming classical music events.
He was a nice man. And you know, there just aren’t enough of them to go around.
