RandomThoughts! (6/14/2014)

Let’s take a quick trip into my mind this Saturday, shall we?

One Big Board coming up…

  • I’m sort of laughing at the mild degree of pushback that I’m getting for reminding people about Joe Bailey’s term on the Halifax County School Board. I’ve actually been called “racist” for failing to forget that time period. Listen up, people. SouthsideCentral doesn’t have a short attention span. In our world, people are held accountable for their words and actions.
  • Albert Randolph wasn’t demoted because he was black and the superintendent was white. He was demoted because they were both hotheads and escalated a situation that could have been defused easily. Everything isn’t racist, people.
  • If Stanley and Wanda Jeffress “can only rely on the local newspaper articles” for information, they need to be educated on other sources.
  • I miss the Colonial Downs off-track betting location just north of the Martinsville Speedway. They’ve been closed since February due to a labor dispute with the horsemen. It was a fun place to relax and the food was good. If you took your time and analyzed the multiple horse races, you had a decent chance at making a profit. They’ll reopen once the dispute is resolved, or at least that’s what the management company says. The ones in Vinton & Alberta are also closed now.
  • I’m hearing stories of administrators in Danville Public Schools getting fired. That’s something I’m going to be looking into.
  • No one has ever been able to give me a logical reason why Halifax County’s gas prices are 10 cents higher than Danville’s.
  • Jackie’s has never taken part in any Downtown Danville promotion.
  • Visit the “Butterfly Station” at the Danville Science Center. It’s just amazing to walk through there.

That’s Saturday’s RandomThoughts! More coming up on SouthsideCentral!

    I’m hoping we’ll get more than a random thought about the idea of Danville paying off the $1.6 million the Tobacco Commission is owed by US Green Energy
