Not in the clamor of the crowded street, not in the shouts and plaudits of the throng, but in ourselves, are triumph and defeat.--Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

REDIRECT ALERT! (Scroll down past this mess if you're trying to read an archived post. Thanks. No, really, thanks.)

Due to my inability to control my temper and complacently accept continued silliness with not-quite-as-reliable-as-it-ought-to-be Blogger/Blogspot, your beloved Possumblog will now waddle across the Information Dirt Road and park its prehensile tail at http://possumblog.mu.nu.

This site will remain in place as a backup in case Munuvia gets hit by a bus or something, but I don't think they have as much trouble with this as some places do. ::cough::blogspot::cough:: So click here and adjust your links. I apologize for the inconvenience, but it's one of those things.

I'm sure there's a reasonable explanation.
A federal grand jury is investigating possible wrongdoing associated with awarding consulting contracts by members of the former Birmingham City Council. Best quote?

Bell said constant accusations about the contracts by Kincaid and his allies during the campaigns might have prompted the federal investigation.

"I'm not surprised about this," Bell said.

"The current administration is hellbent on finding something. That's all that is," Bell said.

Ex-councilwoman Sandra Little also said she thinks Kincaid pushed for an investigation to discredit his opponents.

"I think he probably initiated some of that stuff," Ms. Little said. "That sounds like him."


Uh-huh.
