And since he's majoring in Finance maybe he can better calculate the economic impact of a DUI on his record (should the judge agree of course).

Runner up winner for this disturbing distinction of "most dangerous" DUI goes to someone who should know better: local businessman Emmanuel Proust ... bagged only a mile from town center, speeding, and his car showed damage from a possible accident just prior to being pulled over. Second offense no less.
And to round out the list, two more UMass students, both pulled from their potentially deadly weapons just after the bewitching hour early Friday and early Sunday morning.

what business does the guy own?
ReplyDeleteYou don't have to own a business in order to be considered a local businessman.
ReplyDeleteSpelling error again in title of this post: you mean "Dishonor Roll".
ReplyDeleteNice to see the mainstream media following up on your work with the story on Amherst landlords!
Yeah, that has become one of my quirks. Just like Barny Blowout instead of the correct "Blarney Blowout".
ReplyDeletesince when is a chef a businessman?

Didn't used to be innocent until PROVEN guilty?
ReplyDeleteYou know Larry, much as you pressure UMass to punish the UM kids, you ought to have posted the name and contact information of the "Businessman's" employer along with a demand that equal public pressure be made upon the latter to fire him.

My tax dollars do not subsidize a private restaurant in downtown Amherst.
ReplyDeleteBut didn't it subsidize the degree they stupidly gave you

ReplyDeleteMy tax dollars do not subsidize a private restaurant in downtown Amherst.
ReplyDeleteAre you sure?
First, there are a variety of tax incentive programs available to businesses, those are taxpayer subsidies for everything from hiring the retarded kid to wash dishes to using solar electric power.
Second, are you absolutely sure that none of the restaurant's customers are spending public assistance dollars there? Remember the woman who made the national news when she refused to accept EBT cards a year or so back?
Third, if this restaurant participates in the "Taste of Amherst" -- which I believe is supported in part by taxpayer dollars -- then yes, Virginia, there are taxpayer dollars going to this restaurant.....
