Gannett's sham rag Velocity omits us, but that's fine with me.

The past Wednesday was the occasion for Velocity's special dinng issue, purported to be a comprehensive listing of Louisville area eateries.

Last night I was asked why neither Rich O's Public House nor Sportstime Pizza appeared in this dining issue.

The answer is simple: I didn't return the survey because I was annoyed at the phone call from Velocity soliciting advertising for the special issue. It took five minutes to sift through the bluster to the point where it was acknowledged that we could be listed without buying an ad so long as we filled out a form, which was promptly received and immediately relegated to the waste paper basket.

Oh, well.
