Sometimes it pays to be at county commission meetings. Then again it also pays to be a county commissioner.

Commissioner Steve White was out of town this morning but wanted to participate electronically so he could register his vote against the pay increase.

By 9:10 a.m. he hadn't called in, so Commissioner Larry Ellertson gave him a call and from our side the conversation went a little something like this:

"Hi Steve. How are you this morning?"
[pause]
"Are you going to participate in this meeting with us this morning?"
[pause]
"It's Larry. Larry Ellertson."

It was good for a laugh, which proved beneficial considering the public ass-kicking the commission gave the Herald for it's editorial this morning. Now, I don't write editorials, and the commission made sure to suck up to me and the Dnews reporter which was a little depressing.

I mean, I need a good tongue lashing now and again. Anyone? Anyone?
