I didn’t need your submissions for Parking Jerk of the Day this time. I’ve busted this Parking Jerk all by myself.

Here at SouthsideCentral, we pride ourselves on noticing things that are where they shouldn’t be. Or in this case, things that aren’t where they should be. Don’t worry, though. American National Bank & Trust’s famous clock will be coming back soon! Let’s switch gears for a few minutes away from the political content. We can point our fingers & laugh at a Parking Jerk of the Day! After the introductions and the first question of Monday night’s Danville City Council candidates forum, we had to take a break so that our scoring system and MUTE button could recover. SouthsideCentral was at the first Danville City Council candidates forum held Monday night at the Alpha & Omega Missionary Baptist Church on Kemper Road. I was impressed. I was also dumbfounded, shocked and my eyes rolled across the floor more than a few times. Ten out of the eleven candidates showed up, so it’s going to take multiple articles to get through all the eight questions. The scoreboard is ready. Let’s get started. Technically, this is RottenEditorialWriting but that’s just too long and stupid looking. Danville Utilities has done a good job getting rid of the problems that they had with employee corruption, but that doesn’t stop the editorial board of the Danville Register & Bee from attacking them with reckless rhetoric. Let’s take a look at some of the stories that have caught my eye over the past week. Sunday is QuickHits! day. In Part #1 of our first update on the 2016 Danville City Council race, we looked at the four incumbents who are going for the five available seats. Now it’s time for Part #2, where we will look at the seven challengers. We’ll look at their strengths & weaknesses then do a quick analysis of where they stand. Let’s make it happen. (Editor’s Note: Some of the candidates mentioned here are advertisers with SouthsideCentral. All advertisers are told that advertising or not advertising with SouthsideCentral will have no effect on our content nor our opinions.) Here at SouthsideCentral, we pride ourselves on going to all kinds of meetings that a lot of people never attend. In this PhotoCentral series, we’re going to show you photos and happenings from last week’s Danville Republican Committee meeting. We’re non-partisan, so we’ll be glad to go and cover the Danville Democratic Committee’s meetings (if we ever get invited). We’re at the upstairs banquet rooms at Danville’s Mary’s Diner. Let’s get started! This OpinionCentral has a good chance of making you feel uncomfortable. That means I’m doing my job. Sheila Willamson-Branch has officially announced her candidacy for Danville City Treasurer. SouthsideCentral is glad to publish her statement unedited so that our readers can see it in its entirety. We’ve got eleven candidates running for five seats on Danville City Council and the game is on. In our first look at the field, we’re going to look at each candidate’s strengths & weaknesses, then a quick analysis of them. For Part #1, we’ll examine the incumbents.

The City of Danville does have a large dollar value of delinquent property taxes, but is that a “real problem” in the big picture? With data provided to SouthsideCentral by Danville’s Finance Director Michael Adkins, let’s look at the numbers and see what we can find out. (Editor’s Note: Technically, this article could also be an “Ask SouthsideCentral!” because we got this question from one of our readers a few months ago. But it’s got a lot of numbers in it, so it’s a NumbersCentral article. And it’s a BreakDown because we’re going to analyze the numbers. So it’s all three. But I’ve got a new NumbersCentral graphic, so there. Anyway, let’s start digging.) If you examine the headline of this article carefully, you can deduce that we’re in for a treat today. Sunday is QuickHits! day. Well, so is Monday, darn it! Let’s take a look at some of the stories that have caught my eye over the past week. SouthsideCentral has had a great time with our PhotoCentral journey inside God’s Pit Crew. This is the tenth and final article in the series and we hope you’ve enjoyed them. We also hope you have learned a lot about the organization. This all started when the Danville Pittsylvania County Chamber of Commerce for hosting February’s Business After Hours here. We’re almost finished with our PhotoCentral journey at God’s Pit Crew. We’ve made it to the main warehouse where the trucks are loaded, so let’s take a look around here. Special thanks go out to the Danville Pittsylvania County Chamber of Commerce for hosting February’s Business After Hours here. Although the Southside News & Views Facebook page is not part of the official SouthsideCentral brand, I am the administrator of the page and get article ideas & submissions from it. That’s where today’s Parking Jerk of the Day dishonoree comes from. Let’s take a look at what was sent in. Our PhotoCentral journey at God’s Pit Crew is continuing and we’re glad you’re on the tour with us. Thanks to the Danville Pittsylvania County Chamber of Commerce for hosting February’s Business After Hours here. Jim Lindley has announced that he will run for Danville City Council in the upcoming May elections. SouthsideCentral is glad to publish his campaign’s statement unedited so that our readers can see it in its entirety. We’ve got some photos that didn’t make the final cut in our Danville City Council meeting article that we just published. Let’s see some of what happened behind the scenes. As the SouthsideCentral reader said when they sent this photo in… “For old times sake”. It’s been a long while since we’ve had a Parking Jerk of the Day. Let’s go have some fun. Fonzie was famous for his Thumbs! back in the mid-1970’s. SouthsideCentral is famous for our Thumbs! in the mid-2010’s. Let’s see what’s UP! and DOWN! in this edition. |
