Who Supports Brian Lindsey?/Let's Get Cherokee a Grocery Store!

We've had several write us that one or more Colbert County commissioners specifically supported an increased county tax in order to help Muscle Shoals City Schools. True or not, our mail is running 10 to one against any new tax in Muscle Shoals.

Make no mistake, we support schools in Alabama. Period. What we do not support is waste and graft. If either is present in Muscle Shoals, it's time to change leadership.

A little humor from Southern Son:

Breaking News: The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals has overturned President Trump's decision to cut down Andrew Jackson's Magnolia tree at the White House.  The 9th Circuit issued a temporary ban on Trump's Executive Order.  In their decision they ruled that if Trump had intended to burn the tree down it would probably pass constitutional muster.  They added that burning the tree might constitute cruel and unusual punishment and they must have a hearing before the full 9th Circuit of Appeals.  They did not address the close proximity of the tree to the White House as a determining factor in their decision.

Many are aware of the sudden closing of the only grocery store in Cherokee. We understand that it was not due to the business being unprofitable. We also understand this business ran a hardware store in one area of the building. We've seen this done in other small towns and it seems to work out very well. In fact, there are several other businesses that could be placed along side the grocery. 

If you're considering opening a new endeavor for the upcoming year, consider Cherokee. In the meantime, we suggest residents band together to order from Walmart. Any order, grocery or other items, over 35.00 is shipping free. This is great to receive boxed meal kits, bottled dressings, etc. right at your door. Never leaving your home may be impossible, but Internet shopping certainly makes things much more convenient.
