When I chatted with him today I suggested he run for County Judge Executive, just to see his reaction. He didn&#8217;t dismiss the idea at all and said, &#8220;John, I&#8217;ve thought about a lot of things this week, but that wasn&#8217;t one of them.&#8221; It was almost as if I could hear that familiar Lalo Schifrin tune, and felt like I was finally stepping into the shoes of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dixondesign.com\/pictorials\/GravesAsPhelps.jpg\">YOU KNOW WHO<\/a>.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n &#8212; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.guardian.co.uk\/science\/story\/0,3605,1685534,00.html\">What&#8217;s up, Docs<\/a>?\n<\/p>\n<p>\n &#8212; We just got home from the BIG Danville-vs-Boyle-County basketball double header. As Cliff predicted, the boy&#8217;s game was intense, given the deep local rivalry. I haven&#8217;t felt that kind of energy near a basketball court since my high school days, when a Northmont or Vandalia-Butler showndown brought the student body to fever pitch. Both Boyle County teams won, and I agreed with Marty that the girls&#8217; game was more satisfying to watch. If I counted correctly, Hayley&#8217;s point total made it to double digits again. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.xorph.com\/nb\/nb.cgi\/view\/uj\/2005\/12\/29\">She&#8217;s a real playmaker<\/a> and had a number of significant assists. She also continues to be prone to mistakes that accompany her inexperience with sustaining game focus. It&#8217;s scary to think how good she&#8217;ll be when she stops making them.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n &#8212; After the ball games, while taking Marty home, we learned that <a href=\"http:\/\/www.xorph.com\/nb\/nb.cgi\/search\/uj?q=Bruce&amp;submit=Search\">Bruce<\/a> was being admitted back into Methodist Hospital. It has to do with replacing some of his dang &#8220;pipelines and spigots.&#8221; I guess BIG problems could result if this kind of thing were ignored or downplayed during his steady recovery.\n<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.xorph.com\/nb\/nb.cgi\/search\/uj?q=Sundry&amp;submit=Search\">V &amp; S<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8212; You asked for them&#8230; BIG Jim &#8212; The BIG Guy Himself &#8212; The BIG Valley &#8212; The Other BIG Guy Himself &#8212; The BIG news of the week in Danville was the corporate restructuring of Ephraim McDowell Health, with the president of the medical center being ousted in the process.
