Hoggy is a workaholic, perfectionist, and, incidentally, one of the nicest guys on the planet.  He rarely raises his voice...and when he does, he has reason.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Holmes waltzed through his commisionership at BMV...they had Bill Stinson over there as his chief deputy, the governor&#39;s eyes and ears, effectively running things.  But as we all know, BMV is and always has been a cesspool of nonsensical bureaucratic logic.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;I like nametags, too...good idea.  But technically, it probably involved a change in workplace conditions that needed to be vetted through labor-management committee.  Not a huge surprise.  Gil should&#39;ve known that.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Gil&#39;s brightest days were when he filed suit to integrate the Rivvy.  After that, it&#39;s been all downhill.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12703782/4462860595543257469/comments/default/6974572827592701751'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12703782/4462860595543257469/comments/default/6974572827592701751'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://advanceindiana.blogspot.com/2007/08/more-on-city-that-doesnt-work.html?showComment=1187960340000#c6974572827592701751' title=''/><author><name>Anonymous</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/blank.gif'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://advanceindiana.blogspot.com/2007/08/more-on-city-that-doesnt-work.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-4462860595543257469' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12703782/posts/default/4462860595543257469' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty name="blogger.itemClass" value="pid-1114923450"/><gd:extendedProperty name="blogger.displayTime" value="7:59 AM GMT-5"/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-4510772747775718322</id><published>2007-08-24T07:09:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2007-08-24T07:09:00.000-05:00</updated><title type='text'>What?
