"Rocky VII, Rocky VII"

One of the traditions of the dental clinic where our family goes is what I call the "announcement." When you arrive for your appointment, over the speaker of the clinic booms the voice of the front desk receptionist, "Annie7, Annie7" or whichever dental hygenist is assigned to you plus the number 7. The number 7 is the universal number which means that the customer has arrived. It is time to serve. It is showtime.

In Evansville recently, a discussion has ensued over whether if 95% of the folks in Evansville believe in a target for growth, it is to be considered the "public will" or just "mostly the public will" and something to be disregarded. The decision will come at the Evansville Common Council meeting in August. Plan on attending.

There has also been discussed whether it is possible for Sylvester Stallone to really come back in Rocky VII. Miracle Max thinks the patient is dead. "Grumps" says it is never too late for "Rocky" especially when "Eye of the Tiger" is playing in the background.

Click on the post for the analysis of "Fred" on the issue of Smart Growth for Evansville and what it all means for the meeting in August.

For the Observer, I wish to simply announce:

"Rocky VII, Rocky VII"

It is time to show up. The customers have arrived. It is time to serve.
