Letters to the Editor
Data center dreams, rural nightmare
Our society is a stew, so scum rises to the top Lust for power and easy money will not stop They tried to hide Mega-site, got caught Huge protests, voted NO, lied, it got bought Then, so greedy, cut trees for solar plantations Shocked when rain lead to erosion frustrations Still our board & Wade plotted, drooled: MORE!
From the Desk of Sheriff Donald Lowe
As Sheriff of Louisa County and a Constitutional Officer sworn to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution of the Commonwealth of Virginia, I want to address concerns regarding proposed and newly enacted legislation related to so-called “assault weapons.”

We have a modest TV satellite plan and no subscription or streaming services, so we get a very basic package of programming. Sometimes I get envious when friends talk about outstanding series they follow, but frankly, we are just not going to spend the money. No, we continue to watch the basics, some ESPN, and reruns.
