We were very lucky this past weekend.
If the tornado that hit Troy and Shelby would have come farther south, University Heights could have seen terrible damage and death. Today I rode past the damage along Troy from west of Madison to east of Keystone. Our neighbors to the north really got socked.
One of the best businesses that we have here on the southside, AMI Do-It-Best Hardware had considerable damage. I know the owners of AMI have done a lot to invest back into the Southside, along with supporting many charitable causes. Let's keep them in mind and hope they can get back on their feet very quickly.

Cicadas: Check out this map to see when they'll hit.
Brood X, Gen X, will be hitting over the next couple of weeks.
They may ruin your outdoor wedding.

I just received the following offer from Dr. Pamela Jackson, Dept. of Sociology, Indiana University. She is looking for families in our neighborhood to be a part of a study.
" Letter of invitation:
You and your family are invited to participate in a study about family, work, and health.
We would like to interview you in-person (we come to you any time and day of the week).
We would like to interview 4-5 of your family members (over the telephone so they can live anywhere in the United States).
Interviews will be completely confidential.
For completing an interview you will receive $20 and a 120 minute phone card.
Your family members who complete a telephone interview will receive a 120 minute phone card. "
Sounds like an interesting study plus it includes a bonus.
Here is a web page with more info, or you can download this word document.
