Friday night was quite the letdown.
I met up with some high-school friends from Alabama at an all-night diner. I'd hardly seen any of them in the last few years, but now they're all finishing engineering degrees.
For the most part I'm happy for them, but I found myself shocked by some of their politics.

Late last month, the city of Lexington announced that it would do something innovative with existing infrastructure. No, of course I don't mean preserving historically or economically significant buildings and local businesses; Lexington would never think to do that.

Just out of curiosity, as an avid UK fan, mother of a former student and employee of UK, what's up with the fact that in a time of budget cuts due to funding and raising student costs the only one person ranks a bonus when all those hard working employees making him look so good don't even get their modest 2 percent raise?
Does President Lee Todd not open the windows of his ivory tower long enough to hear how disgruntled most of his employees and students really are?
The budget cuts in the departments that may not put UK in the top-20 bracket, but they have brought the university quite a bit of versatility and notoriety.

If you've been keeping up with my writing the last few weeks, you probably have a good idea about my beliefs regarding our university's lack of regard for students. As of yet, I still lack contrary evidence to show that my rebukes of UK are ill-informed or misplaced.

There are people in this world that should never be allowed to procreate.
A shining example are Marleny Martinez-Amaya and Enrique Ramirez, who decided that their five-month-old infant would be perfectly capable of looking after himself in a locked car while they got drunk at a local bar for three hours, according to a story by the Associated Press.

I'm an equal-opportunity hater in this forum, meaning that both presidential candidates look about as appetizing to me as muddy gum on the sidewalk.
I don't really have an opinion leaning towards any one political spectrum, so in lieu of that, I have chosen to hate on both candidates fairly and equally.
