Southington: the police appointment. This saga goes on and on. There’s a lesson here, somewhere, but I’m darned if I can figure out what it is.
Wallingford: An unfortunate situation regarding the 250-year-old house on North Main St. It’s very sad when we let history go up in smoke like that.
Meriden/state: statistics on arrests, fatalities, accidents over the holiday weekend. Fatalities, dropping from 4 to 1 (a 75 percent drop) is statistically irrelevant — to everyone, I suppose, but the poor victim and survivors. The number of accidents increased, as did DUI arrests, by about 10 percent each. But the weather was nasty. How much do accidents increase during holidays? Seat-belt violations are down!
Meriden: results at the mall are mixed and somewhat hedged. Isn’t it becoming clear that putting so many annual eggs in one basket for retail is a dangerous thing to do? Or is that like trying to convince people not to buy gas guzzlers and to take the train or bus instead?
