About
This is a community news blog about Charlottesville, VA, USA, started in March of 2001. It's run by Waldo Jaquith. It has nothing to do with C-Ville Weekly, the newspaper. Feel free to submit a story.
Should make for some pretty interesting items on Council’s agenda.
Nice guys do finish first, after all. Congrats to Dave!
Dave Norris really isn’t any different from the long line of do nothings we’ve had for years. He is just as much a part of the f**ked system as Brown was, and don’t forget, we haven’t really gotten rid of Brown either. Don’t expect much to change any time soon.
