Move over, Lou Hershman! Your days in the sun are over!
Allentown watchdog Lou Hershman has been eclipsed by his first grade grandson, who just won First Prize at Notre Dame Elementary School's (Bethlehem, Pa) pinebox derby.
His trophy is bigger than him!
I've met Cole, who accompanies his fourth grade brother Grant, to Notre Dame basketball practice. He's usually too busy to speak to me, and is instead barking out commands at the team.
"Jump, jump for that ball! ... Hands, hands!"
How'd Cole beat those eighth graders? From what I'm told, he launched a nasty robocall campaign the weekend before the derby.
Cole's next race will be Allentown City Council. Asked about not living there, he gave me an icy stare and said, "Don't go there, dude."

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
