Baby, beloved pet, still gone: Urgent plea to residents of KY 55/704 Y area Click Here for photo of Baby and Clarice White. Baby, the big yellow tabby cat which belongs to Clarice White, is still missing. And her niece is asking everyone to make a special effort to find Baby. Clarice White is scheduled to come home from the hospital today. She doesn't know her beloved Baby is missing. It will be so heartbreaking for her to come back and find that Baby is gone. One man, who saw a previous story on ColumbiaMagazine.com, called, and the family appreciates his interest. However, it was not the lead they were hoping to receive. An earlier note on Baby: He went missing Sunday, October 28th in the vicinity of Hwy. 55, near the former Handy Andy's. Baby is a large, male orange striped cat.He has no collar. Please call (270) 384-6361 or (270) 634-1065 and ask for Phyllis, if you should see Baby. Baby is not used to being outside, and it is cold out there. Your help will be forever appreciated and remembered! Thanks! 2007-10-31 10:24:09 | Comments | Printable version

Gas Price Drumbeat: Still doing it to us Editor, ColumbiaMagazine.com: I just checked gas prices on the internet and all around us:Burkesvillle, 3 stations at $2.72; Campbellsville one station, $2.69: Glasgow, $2.74. That is at least 25 cents a gallon lower than Columbia. Seems like they are still doing it to us for some reason. Whoever finds comparable prices at other towns must not be watching the signs. s/Gerald Doss 2007-10-31 09:59:05 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback
