What if a person woke up and saw our current state?

The article is about the council beginning to discuss how to handle abandoned or seriously dilapidated properties. Surely you don't mean that this discussion itself will force homelessness onto thousands.

Is there a more particular policy or program which you are opposing?

That's what many of them are right now. This article is about how the city should deal with those affordable housing units which are dilapidated while occupied, or abandoned by the owners.

It's rare for a book to get its hooks into my brain so deep, so fast, but Wool had me by page 2 and I absolutely devoured the series in a few days. Such an exciting and rewarding read.

One of them, yes!

Yeah, but she has a new hat!

The same reason mystery and suspense novels have always been popular.

The human mind is primed to pay very close attention to Caution Tales about horrible things that happened to other people (even fictional ones). We've been learning from each other by listening to stories for thousands and thousands of years, and the thrilling, scary ones are often the most attractive and memorable.

I don't have any experience with others, but All Creatures on Kearney worked with us once for payments on an unexpectedly large bill.

Downtown on the square it's.... MISTER FUURRNITUURRE!

Preach it! There was a time when bookstores were run by booksellers, not MBAs. When newspapers were run by newspapermen, not corporate mercenaries. You've got people in charge of these companies who look at their assets (including century-long reputations) and see a bunch of junk that should be turned into cash, rather than a business that accomplishes a service or provides goods and pays well those who do it.

>In 2015, a woman named Kathy Penrod wanted to purchase the home and convert it into a hospitality house, offering low-cost overnight accommodations for people with a loved one in the hospital. >...

>Residents in the neighborhood vehemently opposed Penrod’s idea, and Springfield City Council denied her request for a conditional use permit in 2016.
