Dr. Horrible, Act I

If you haven’t started watching, get ye to the website and behold.  Neil Patrick Harris is the most adorable villain, ever.  Truly. And the music is fun and as witty as I’d hoped.

Chattanooga lands VW plant

Chattanooga Times Free Press reports that Chattanooga lands VW plant. It’ll be at Enterprise South which is about a mile from my parents’ house. This is a very good thing and also a very odd thing. It’ll mean that area is going to see a lot of commercial development so we might actually have good restaurants close by. On the other hand, Chattanooga’s zoning regulations have been, shall we say, spotty in the past. They are doing great things downtown, but I worry that the road to my parents’ house will become stripmall central.

BUT since my mom works with Allied Arts, the local arts council, this is fantastic for the arts. It’s also great for jobs. It changes everything. My mom was so excited she called to tell me about it. Everything will be different from here on out.

Heck, maybe they’ll finally build that high speed rail between Atlanta and Chattanooga they’ve been talking about forever.
