Dogs are living the gangster's paradise. Where's Coolio?

This is hysterical. A special thanks to whomever takes the time to put this together. That's good stuff.

I need to see this movie

I need to see this movie too. Daniel Day-Lewis is one of the best actors around.

This is the next movie on my

This is the next movie on my Netflix queue. Now, I'm excited.

The power company was likely

The power company was likely doing the chopping, not the city -- that's typically how things work. The power company typically maintains the right of way under their lines, which is allowed in the state of Minnesota. I'm not advocating chopping trees, however, I've been a journalist for a long time and covered concerns by residents about just what Joanna observed and that's been the answer given -- the power company has the right to keep landscaping away from power lines. At one time, someone -- could have been the city, a homeowner or business -- looked at that area and thought it needed beautifying and did so with trees that grew too tall. So, please, don't blame the city! What's more, if you all are so concerned about it and you live in Bloomington, call city hall and ask. People forget that city hall is staffed by public servants whose job it is to give you the facts when you call. If I lived in Bloomington, that's what I'd do!

Good luck on your trip,

Good luck on your trip, Joanna. Have a great time! I look forward to hearing the full report when you return.

What's wrong with self-promoting? It worked for our former govenor Jesse the Body Ventura.

Remember... "It's in the way thay you use it; boy don't you know."

Here's the story we did on a local guy who was in the band that sung "The Crusher."

On my very first visit to Minnesota about six years ago, I stepped off the plane and headed downtown to Bunkers, where I saw G.B. Leighton -- it was love at first sound.

Whether it's original music or covers, I truly enjoy watching/hearing this band perform and I have become somewhat of a groupie. I've seen them perform more than any other group, I've bought CDs and T-shirts and I have one of Brian's guitar picks -- "Yeah Yeah Yeah"

Not sure who planted them.

Tom Schardin — Thu, 24 Apr 2008 15:13:07 -0500

Not sure who planted them. If the city did, and then butchered them like that, it seems to me that would be a waste of mula.

Tom Schardin — Thu, 24 Apr 2008 15:10:09 -0500

Yes, it was a song called "The Crusher" done way back in the day.

I'll see if I can find it on the Web.

I knew I was forgetting some

I knew I was forgetting some fun Minnesota musicians. Rhymesayers Entertainment put Twin Cities hip hop on the global map with Atmosphere and Brother Ali.

Shawn Hogendorf — Thu, 24 Apr 2008 14:10:27 -0500

I interned with Twin Tone in college. It really was amazing how many local musicians represented by Twin Tone influenced bands around the country, and world for that matter.

Tom, didn't you write about

Shawn Hogendorf — Thu, 24 Apr 2008 14:04:48 -0500

Tom, didn't you write about a band from Savage who had a hit in the past about wrastling? (I know it's wrestling).
You should provide the Youtube link to that!!
