229. Walking in the Winter Wonderland

The Mayor of Louisville - Jefferson County Metro has turned the Court House lawn into a winter wonderland circus of plastic poles and houses, PVC piping tortured into "seasonal" designs, pulsating lights platted throughout, and other such purposeless artificialry. It is all rather hideous and would be better placed in a field surrounded by cheap mobile homes with 1978 Ford pickups on blocks. I'd include pictures, but that might frighten the adults and send the aesthetes into an torrent of trajic disbelief. It is all just embarassing.

Personal

Louisville, Kentucky, United States
Never married, liberal Democrat, born in 1960, opinionated but generally pleasant, member of the Episcopal Church. Graduate of Prestonia Elementary, Durrett High, and Spalding University; the first two now-closed Jefferson County Public Schools, the latter a very small liberal arts college in downtown Louisville affiliated with the Roman Catholic Sisters of Charity of Nazareth. My vocation and avocation is politics. My favorite pastime is driving the backroads of Kentucky and southern Indiana, visiting small towns, political hangouts, courthouses, churches, and cemeteries. You are welcome to ride with me sometime.
