I saw several Coleman signs on public rights of way within
Minneapolis today. While Norm may be trying to project a kindler and
gentler image, his campaign is as nasty as ever.

Given the comments from others about the judicial races, I thought I would
send in my plans for voting on them tomorrow, and why.

In response to my comments about towing: My point is that the city has an
iron-clad, one size-fits-all policy about snow removal and leaf clean up.
Except for the snow emergency parking rules, it is usually 7am to 4 pm.

I wanted to respond to Ms. Mann's email regarding Minneapolis Youth Vote. Now in its

Folks often say there were no signs on the street when they get a ticket. But the policy in Minneapolis is that the ticketing agent puts a number on the ticket and it is circled. That is the amount of signs he or she could see posted on the street when writing the ticket. I think life is so hecti

Your post gives further evidence that the city departments responsible for

One reason for what may be seen as badly timed lights is due to the

as to minimize pollution from too much idling. That's called "platooning".
