The Editor's Notepod, Sat., Dec.13, 2008

Meriden: Hi-oh Silver, Away! An incident from the Wild West as some yahoo in a rented car runs over a cop’s foot and drives away . . . to Cromwell? Hope they nail this sucker. I know that any time a driver is stopped, all the illegal things one has done lately come tom mind, but this panic suggests a little more than merely rolling through a stop sign!

Wallingford: the parking problem. Having attempted parking a couple of years ago on the block South of Center St., I can see the difficulty. It’s one faced by many traditional downtowns which have rejected the idea of more vertical parking or of converting empty lots. But how about Wooding-Kaplan?

Area: we are lucky, I think, that we had rain instead of ice at the end of last week. That won’t ease the pain of anyone who suffered water damage, though, and for them our sympathies are extended.
