Just wondering:

  • IF Charlie Baker’s face is not the face of a winning candidate. Sorry Charlie.
  • HOW many undecided voters are in attendence at the proposed Police Station forums.
  • ARE hyper-local websites the future of journalism? Apparently the number of paid journalists is expected to continue to fall.
  • IF BID fees have trickled down to the tenants of BID property owners.
  • IF the NPD override will pass with ease. Looks like Northampton’s fiscal conservatives have given up. Next in the queue: a new DPW facility.
  • IF the American Medical Association has too much influence on Medicare fees.
  • CAN anyone tell me-how much water is behind that dam on Chesterfield Road?
  • IF the city should take down that unused water holding tank across the street from Musante Beach in Leeds and create more parking.
  • IF Maria Tymoczko’s lawsuit will hold up the Three County Fairgrounds redevelopment. Where will all that stormwater go?
  • DOES new public transit increase gentrification and lower ridership?
  • IF Mike Kirby got a new pair of shoes.
  • WHAT rationale the city employs by hiring the same auditing firm year after year after year after…
  • IF Jeff Bridges can pull off Rooster Cogburn.
  • DO Northampton residents really generate 58 tons of trash a day? That would mean each of every man, woman and child would be creating more than four pounds of trash per day.
  • WHY The Springfield Republican editors did not save space and simply offer a blanket endorsement of all local Democrats running for the state legislature.
  • IF the public works for the government or if the government works for the public.
  • WHY the Amherst/Northampton corridor has such a low unemployment rate when juxtaposed with Springfield and Holyoke.
  • IF unemployment rates overall point to a new feudalism in America.
  • DID the Patrick administration delay release of illegal alien medical figures because of the gubernatorial election?
  • DID the Gazette endorse Patrick and Olver and Neal because these politicians carry a lop-sided portion of the local electorate or will Patrick, Olver and Neal win because they recieved the endorsement of the Gazette? No going out on a limb here. Not like the Boston Globe’s Smug Democrats.
  • IF Look Park can now afford to spruce up the fountain at its entrance.
  • IF the city should try to have more fun at its meetings.
  • IF 60% of the electorate will decide not to vote on Tuesday.
  • HOW much money owners of radio, television and print media organizations netted this year due to campaign advertising.
  • IF the city should paint more travel lanes downtown.
