Exciting Cinema “Ben Franklin” Update!

By From http://fredvegaschronicles.blogspot.com/ • May 6th, 2009 • Category: Blog Entries.Local

The goal of having a second run-art house cinema in the soon-to-be-vacant Ben Franklin space, similar to Richmond’s Byrd (recently profiled with beautiful photos in the FLS) or Charlottesville’s version on the downtown mall, is inching ever closer to…..



The Leader Has Spoken…

By From http://fred2blue.com • May 6th, 2009 • Category: Blog Entries.Local

True Story: I was just about to write a blog post about how House Minority Whip Eric “The Overdog” Cantor has clearly emerged as the leader of the Republican Party.
Then, this morning, I see this:
Rep. Eric Cantor led a much-publicized GOP listening tour this past weekend — or so we all thought.
“What we’re trying to do […]



Cobblestone Memo Bulls#$@*&%$#ttttt!!!!

By From http://fredvegaschronicles.blogspot.com/ • May 6th, 2009 • Category: Blog Entries.Local

I recently got a letter from Cobblestone’s corporate parents. Faithful readers of this blog know I am a highly disgruntled CobbleBuyer, meaning my investment is now nearly worthless due to their policy change to “high end rentals” and the fact that the…



High Schoolers unplug for a week and live to talk about it

In LA, a teacher convinced her class to unplug for a week and write about it, in a paper journal with a pen and a pencil. Predictably, parents are suing for child abuse. OK, I’m kidding about the lawsuit. In fact, some of the kids did really wild things like read a book, discover that […]

My contract has me working off hours this week, which is the first time in a long time, so I can really check into what I’m writing about. The past few months have been go go go and now my employer is feeling the economic pinch I suppose. That’s OK gov…



Doris Buffett Profile

By From http://fredvegaschronicles.blogspot.com/ • May 6th, 2009 • Category: Blog Entries.Local

I admit when I am biased, and I like Doris, who was profiled (kindof oddly BTW) in today’s FLS. She has her detractors, and she can be difficult, but I think it is so nice for Fred. Vegas to have her around. I pity anyone who doesn’t take her seriously…



Pre-Occupying Foreclosures and Short Sales
