Epicurean Kentuckian: Tommy Corbin rates Waffle Street the best



2018-09-02 - FM2 at Municipal Parking Lot, Campbellsville & Merchant Streets, Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com.
Tommy Corbin comes to FM2 regularly, especially when the Kellis Booth family is set up with their Waffle Street booth. "Absolutely the best," he said. "They are crusty on the outside, soft on the inside, and sweet enough they don't need syrup." Tommy Corbin is one of three members of the Glasgow Police Department from Adair County. Also there: Terry Flatt, and Justin Claywell. Besides the food, Tommy Corbin said FM2 is also a great place to meet old friends, make new ones and catch up on news one doesn't hear anywhere else. FM2 is now open Saturdays only through September and October, officially from 8am-1pmCT, but crowds usually filter in as soon as the first vendor shows up. - Ed Waggener Photo September 1, 2018.

Wendy B. Burt: Loud night-time calls of Whip-Poor-Wills hypnotic

Laments there are fewer and fewer of the birds due to due to forest fragmentation and development

Wendy Butler Burt writes:
According to most ornithologists, the steady decline in Whip-Poor-Will and the closely related Chuck-Will's-Widow, both native to South-Central Kentucky, have been in steady decline as a result of habitat loss caused by forest fragmentation and development. Even on our protected farm, we hear fewer and fewer of these birds each year. Both species are very shy and often flush at the slightest disturbance, but are difficult to see because they tend to sit on the ground or lengthwise on a branch. I think their loud night-time calls are hypnotic. --Wendy Butler Burt

Blizzards of the 70's may have led to demise of whippoorwills

That may have been when coyotes came across frozen rivers and began raiding groundnesting whippoorwills' nests. Click here for their call.

Robert Cumming writes:
Fifty years ago when I was a youngster living in the woods adjacent the shoreline at the mouth of Greasy Creek in Russell County, it was home to several whippoorwills. Every night each spring and summer they would get started fervently calling each other in the woods outside our screened porch to the point being almost annoying. Then came the blizzards in the 1970s when the Mississippi and Ohio rivers froze and wildlife biologists have suggested coyotes from out west crossed the rivers invading this country and decimating the ground nesting whipporwill populations. - Robert Cumming

JIM: Sixty-five years ago this day: front page news, 2 Sep 1953

It was the year of school consolidation, of a five-day-a-week kindergarten, of 27 year old Coy Downeys professional degree, of Columbia Baptist Church expansion, of big reward for arrest of arsonist(s) responsible for three fires in four years at Sandusky Mill, of Crawford Loy's dominance in Kroger district contests, of Morris Epperson & Louis Merkley's combined 63 years with Ford Motor Co., and it was the year the "Progressive Ticket" ran as a slate to take over leadership of the City of Columbia government - and it was the year a big time wrestling event came to Columbia.

Several items of interest graced to front page of the News 65 years ago today, September 2, 1953.

The county schools -- Adair County High, Columbia Grade Center, Breeding Grade Center, and Knifley Grade Center -- were set open on September 7th. The new high school building, although not completed, was far enough along to have 12 usable classrooms, and, stated the paper, "All high school students in the county will attend the new school." The Breeding and Knifley centers were new, "an innovation in Adair County Education, and students will be transported there." (The five new buses ordered had not arrived, but unnamed alternate means had been secured to transport students who were not within walking distance.)

JIM: Seeking to know assignee of Iowa check

About: Artifact/Archaelogical Find by Larry Reliford/LR Dozing

JIM writes:
By any chance did you get a photo of the assignee signature on the back of the J.C. Blair check?

I just noticed that the instrument is serrated both top and bottom, which possibly/probably identifies it as a business check rather than it being from a wallet-style personal checkbook (only the left edge would be serrated). In 1943, 29 dollars would have bought a lot of gas -- but only if one had the coupons? jim
Thanks - Didn't get a photo that day, but will let you know if one is found. Fascinating to see that clue added to finding some interesting answers. - EW
