Happy Monday. Rumor has it that the weather is going to be a bit better this week than last. Here’s what’s going on around town.
- The Evansville Dog Owners Group had its Chili Dog Fest to help raise money for the dog park they are wanting to build.
- This Tuesday the Vanderburgh County Comissioners will discuss a proposed ordinance to punish owners of unrestrained, disruptive pets in neighborhoods. Ths ordinance is in response to several complaints of free-roaming dogs scaring children.
- Indiana Governor Mitch Daniels will be in town today to officially announce the Cingular call center we told you about last week.
- If you’ve put off paying your taxes, you’ve got until tomorrow to file.
- The Step It Up march on Vectren had about 200 protesters out in front of Vectren’s headquarters Saturday to protest the building of more coal plants.

I’m sorry but usually the owners of scary, free-roaming dogs don’t put up the dollars to have those dogs tagged. And while the police are staking out these dogs, some idiots are breaking into MY car, parked in MY driveway, stealing MY XM radio and whatever else they could get their hands on. I call the police, they ask if my car was locked, and that was that. YES it was locked. Oh wait, maybe I should get a scary, free-roaming dog to protect MY property.
