Off The Record

We hear the Paxton Chamber of Commerce elected a new president at its annual meeting last week. The president elect works for a local government entity. That entity doesn't pay full dues to the Chamber of Commerce. Obviously the Chamber doesn't require its officials to have experience running a for profit, tax paying business. We wish the new chamber president good luck in the coming year.

We see on Judici.com the new Chamber President has another DUI. He was arrested only blocks from home. Are there work permits for 2^nd DUI offenses? His day in court is on St. Patrick's Day. Will he be wearing of the orange instead of wearing of the green? Oh, no blow, no go for 12 months. Oh, the humanity!!
