April 4, 2013 I am very excited about a text message I received this morning. I get weather alerts and commentary sent to my phone and I always enjoy reading the information, but the one this morning was especially interesting.
April 4, 2013 Could this come to Frederica Street in Owensboro? It could happen, because Dunkin’ Donuts is currently testing it in a Massachusetts location. Massachusetts? Is that a good place to test it? They should test it in Western Kentucky, where people live who’d go big time for that!
HOW GOOD DOES THIS SOUND?

April 4, 2013 Sgt. Michael Cable's body returned home to Kentucky this morning and Owensboro streets were lined with his neighbors paying tribute for his ultimate sacrifice. WBKR's Jaclyn Graves posted some dynamic photos taken
April 4, 2013 US Army Sgt. Michael Cable's body returned home Thursday morning. The Philpot 26 year old was killed while serving in Afghanistan last week.
Community members joined together this morning to show their support for Sgt. Cable and his family by lining up along the route from the airport to the funeral home.
I will never forget watching the processional of official vehicles, Patriot Riders and other organizations leading Sgt. Cable's body and family and close friends down Frederica Street. Three veterans stood with us in front of the station and seeing their reaction was very emotional. We tend to take for granted the freedoms what we have and the men and women who protect those freedoms. Sgt. Michael Cable and all that serve our great nation can never be thanked enough for their service.

April 3, 2013 The Daviess County High School Class of '89 is beaming today! We are so proud of our classmate Steve Bridgmon, who had the honor of singing the National Anthem last night at the LA Lakers game. Steve is the founder of the gospel group Firm Foundation and is certainly no stranger to performing. But chances like THIS come once in a lifetime. And, Tuesday night, at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, Steve completely seized the day and rocked out that one moment in time. Standing before 20,000 screaming fans, Steve laid out "The Star-Spangled Banner!" WATCH!
