no more st. elmo bus?

according to the chattanoogan, the powers-that-be are considering discontinuing bus service to our neighborhood. if you'll notice, cutting us off will be the biggest cost-saver on their list.

in some ways, it's understandable, since the few times that I've taken the bus, there were only 1 or 2 other passengers. I've never seen a bus near us at anywhere near capacity. but if my junker gives up the ghost, there goes a viable option to get to work. fortunately I can bum a ride from various folks (as long as I'm willing to put up with their timetables).

but what about the folks who use the bus as their only option to get to work?

and how dang ugly could their site possibly get?. rumor has it there's a really nice new site in the works (give ya 3 guesses where it might be found), but you know how bureaucracies go.

but now for some good news for the hood: apparently bi-lo will be buying-lo our winn-dixie! hooray!
