OK, crazy people, here we go:
- New Mayan find deep in the jungle expands and deepens understanding of the culture’s ancient creation myth. I just love this stuff.
- Local hotel occupancy is down 16 percent from last year, outstripping both state and national declines, the latter by 60 percent. Destination location? Not with fewer bankers wheelin’ n dealin’ it ain’t.
- I think McClatchy fired too many people — someone thinks Raleigh is in South Carolina.
- Two French photogs go to Detroit, document Charlotte’s beautiful, tragic future.
- If GE and Berkshire Hathaway are no longer AAA rated, then who is? Note former TCO reporter’s byline.
- Don’t forget the Freedom Club kick-off on Tuesday night at the Uptown library. Be there or hate freedom, just like an evil doer.
- City councilman Anthony Foxx is looking for a campaign theme song. I suggested the one below, which always reminded me of Freedom Park in the spring. I, of course, have picked the best possible song, but any other ideas?
And that’s a wrap.
