Where is a leather repair shop? To ColumbiaMagazine.com I have a question for CM readers. Where can I find a leather repair shop? I have a purse that needs restitching - it's only an inch or so but I can't use it unless I have it repaired. Since most local business choose not to list themselves in the yellow pages of the phone book it's hard to find the services you need.And NO not "everybody knows where they are". Could Columbia Magazine start a business listing service? I know the business that are on the ball already advertise with you but maybe a small list of business with addresses and phone numbers. It might help keep some of our money in the local area.

Time needed for Record Book: Chicago to Sweep of the Square Just for history and for entry into the World Record Book of Guinnesses, and not for emulation, CM needs to help establish just what the record for getting from Clearing or any other Adair County enclave in Chicago, to Sweeping the Square in Columbia, KY was in Thunder Road Days. Somehow, today's time seems conservative. Names - where Statutes of Limitation - have run out, car, engine, driver, Sterling consumption, and accomplices, road conditions, and anecdotes such as those about eluding the police in Whiteland, or outsmarting the State Police would be welcome. Motorcycle times are welcome, too. And if there is a consistent best driver of the day, send that as well. Submissions welcome at: Contact/Submit 2011-08-08 07:49:55 | Comments | Printable version
