Life at Bobby Lynn Graves Farm: A little drama in 3 pictures Introduction. Click on headline for album Everyday occurences at the idyllic Bobby Lynn Graves farm,, a magical, utopian kingdom across Petty's Fork on KY 61 North, provides a never-ending theatre, captured by photographer Jennifer Crawhorn in the accompanying three-act photo play.Thousands of small dramas are played out every day on the farm. Some have quick lessons. A majestic ass, Valentino, proves a dystopian concept from "Animal Farm" that all animals are created equal, but some are more equal than others. Valentino is the self-appointed ruler of his realm. Totally self reliant and autocratic, he begs no help from PETA or other animal rights group. He takes matters into his own hands, thank you! He renegotiates each day, and gets results in short order. And that includes a lesson for those of us who are musically challenged: We'd probably get faster service if we'd threaten to sing.Valentino, despite his efforts in the vocal arts, has received no accolades for his concerts. Rather, his claim to fame is testerone-based. He, like his namesake, it quite the lover. -Ed Waggener 2011-01-14 11:10:25 | Comments | Printable version

This guy has Upper management material written all over him. Surely quarry vice presidential material. Even if William Burton couldn't see the potential, everybody knows that quarry legend Shamrock Ed Williams would have, if the Fired Dog had shown up at his operation. As you now know, the Fired Dog has his old contract back. He's on the job at home. -EW 2011-01-14 10:30:31 | Comments | Printable version

Martha Berry displays LWC Bumper Sticker in Campbellsville, KY Comments re article 41753: Sue Stivers wants LWC to be Number 1 in Battle of Bumpers Martha Berry writes: I agree with Sue Stivers.Note to Readers: I hope none of my fellow Baptists will take offense at the term for a group of Baptists. Martha Berry is a known Methodist and the daughter of Dr. V.P. Henry, a revered former President of Lindsey Wilson College./ Her remarks, we are sure, are quite innocent, not meant to steer things up and awaken the sleeping Tiger. While we always refer to a group of two or more as A Prayer of Baptists we do respect Martha Berry's right to be as unPC as she wishes. We do salute her fervor and zeal, and hope her letter will inspire more buyers of Lindsey Wilson license plates. Also, the search continues for a 100% family, office, or business with LWC plates. -Ed Waggener 2011-01-14 08:24:36 | Comments | Printable version
