To drink, or not to drink that is the question. Well, to be more accurate, to allow Berry's Restaurant to serve alcohol in Bresson Park or not is the question before Norwalk City Council. Berry's already has a deal with the city that allows the restaurant to serve food in the park, which is right next to its property, during the summer. However, city ordinance prohibits alcohol on city property.

Toast Virginia Tech for putting on a graduation ceremony that, by all accounts, struck the right balance between celebration and mourning. It was an emotional weekend for the entire Hokie family, which still is coming to grips with the tragic shooting last month that claimed 33 lives. It was a class move by the college to award posthumous degrees to those killed in the April 16 attack our hearts go out to all those who are suffering. Roast the physical state of the Monroeville schools. A bond issue that would have raised money for renovations and the expansion of several school buildings was again rejected soundly last week. Whatever the reasons Monroeville voters have sent the levy down to defeat now five times in as many years it is the students who suffer the most, missing out on better technology and proper space to learn.

Katy and Rick Brown have been married 11 years and are the parents of Josie, 5, and twins Emmett and Elliott, 2. With slight editing, I am sharing Mr. Brown's e-mail with you today. Perhaps you can relate. I returned late yesterday from a meeting and immediately recognized the signs of a bad day at home.
