Peter J. Rusthoven / Special to IBJIn the first block of South Meridian, a few paces north of Maryland, you will find next to the parking garage entrance a modest
establishment called Cento Shoes. It’s been there for over four decades, founded when L.S. Ayres was flourishing just
across the street and no one dreamed of a Circle Centre mall.

Greg MorrisI know we had snow last week, but spring is almost here. Daylight saving time is just kicking in. We’ve been cooped
up much of this winter, and it feels like it’s way past time to get up, get outside and MOVE! That means we’re
about to see more people outside taking advantage of our parks and greenways, something that far too many of us take for granted.

You guys have some "interesting" comments to say the least. I hope you will call in and share those opinions starting June 1. I'm looking forward to having you on the air.
For those who let this information strike a nerve, remember that this is still the America that allows the freedom to achieve dreams and goals. Should you really chastise those who are given a perk on a deal that is supported by the consumer (that is until they don't like the deal anymore due to envy) or should the dream of rewards for working be looked at a little closer? I say lets stick to the deal, go to work,earn our keep, shoot for dreams, change our jobs to have that dream or shut up about others achievements ..............while we are still afforded this liberty of America !

Esther, Indy has passed Chicago in the local government corruption arena. Don't downgrade us. We're No. 1 in the Midwest.
