Unrequited Love! Continued dissatisfaction with local leaders (but we still like getting their Christmas Card)! Watch out for those Consolidating Pastors! Chill Out–the Police Car Burnout Was All in Good Fun! The Cat Killer gets Called Out! And more!

In this week’s edition of Letcher County’s ongoing epic poem written to and about itself: Dissatisfaction with county leaders! Dissatisfaction with the local McDonald’s! Wake up, parents! The Old Man in the Blue Truck Returns! And to the hot-looking man: meet me at the laundromat on Thursday!

Speak Your Piece makes a thrilling return to the hallowed digital halls of wmmt.org this week after a Fund Drive Hiatus (a fund-driveatus, one might say, if one had no regard for decency). In this edition–what your man’s doing at work every night! Thoughts on energy generation! Cat-threatening maniacs! Pining for Ellie May Clampett! And more!
SYP April 3 – 2013

This week weighing upon the hearts and occupying the minds of your unnamed neighbors: secret bank romance! More on the Hot Guy at the Isom Double Kwik! Admonitions for the “stupid,” flu-ridden masses to quarantine themselves! And quit being so negative, everyone!
SYP March 27 – 2013

Wiley Q. brings us yet another installment in Letcher County’s never-ending anonymous conversation with itself, Speak Your Piece. In this edition: hot guys seen at the Double Kwik driving red trucks to Isom! Magistrates who never speak! Dissatisfaction with the UK Wildcats! The man in the blue truck from McRoberts!

This week’s ever-scintillating Speak Your Piece column read aloud and on-air by our very own Wiley Quixote de la Ha-zard, featuring such important proclamations as “…these little brats I have for neighbors need to stay off my lawn and quit urinating in my bushes.”
