US Post Office, Columbia, KY 42728 collects 4,000 lbs of food The following letter was received following a request for information about this year's Food Drive by one of our favorite organizations, the Columbia Post Office. Turns out, the information had been sent to us, and somehow, we overlooked it. The Food Drive was a big success, anyway, we're happy to say. And, we're going to do better next year and hope that maybe CM's added help could nudge the total a little bit higher. -EW Click on headline for letter plus photo(s) Randal Murrell, Columbia, KY 42728 Postmaster, writes: We just completed our Food Drive on Saturday, May 12. I did submit a notice about it to Columbia Magazine on Tuesday but I didn't get to follow up. I don't know what happened. You did a great job promoting our event last year and we appreciate that. I wish I could have got something on there this year, it really helps to remind everyone to contribute.CM Postscript - Thanks so much to all those who help us with reminders. Even really big events, such as this one, sometimes fail to make the news because of an oversight. Thanks to everyone who helps us in the department. And especially, thanks to Mr. Murrell for remembering to send the news and for being so kind when it was not used. -EW 2012-05-14 07:56:08 | Comments | Printable version
Birthday Coincidence: Three in same family share birthday today Update to story: We've added at least two major names to the birthday list this morning. Just a reminder that if you checked earlier, a re-check may be in order. Denise Adamson reminded us that Bradley Adamson, his wife Ashley Adamson, and her mother Sylvia Grant all share the same birthday, today, May 14, 2012. That's quite a coincidence. The birthdays are posted on the front page of CM today, along with a very distinctive list of other noteworthy folks who are having birthdays, along with one anniversary. This is the season for anniversaries, and there's one important anniversary today. Even if you can't send those celebrating birthday and anniversaries a new car or even a bicycle or an iPad to help them carry a world class library around with them and keep up with the news easily, everywhere, we hope you'll at least send a card, flowers, or chocolates, tell them Happy Birthday, take them to dinner, and let them know you know they are special today. And if anyone is so special that Happy Birthday is personally sung to them by Judge Walker, let us know. That's big news - like getting written up by Byron Crawford, back when Louisville had a real Kentucky newspaper. If we missed any important birthdays in Adair, Casey, Cumberland, Green, Metcalfe, Russell or Taylor Counties for today - let us know. (Contact/Submit). We'll do our best to work it into what today's Events looks like a very busy day - besides being the last day of school. -EW 2012-05-14 04:59:54 | Comments | Printable version
