Odd behavior that, especially in the modern age.<\/p>\n<p>So, it did not shock us to not see the phrase \u00e2\u20ac\u0153and writes a weekly column about plants for <em>The Carrboro Citizen<\/em>\u00e2\u20ac\u009d among what keeps Ken Moore busy these days in a recent story about him in the Raleigh News &amp; Observer. In the past five months, Ken has logged more than 10,000 words \u00e2\u20ac\u201d along with dozens of photos \u00e2\u20ac\u201d on native plants, exotic invasives, drought-resistant gardens and why and how to save that 200-year-old holly tree on Homestead Road.

Though now a confirmed Durhamite, Richard deserves a good deal of credit for improving journalism in the Carrboro-Chapel Hill metroplex when he served as editor of the Chapel Hill News and went the extra mile to get local voices and views into that paper.<\/p>\n<p>We\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll miss his voice in the Indy. Reached by phone amid a recent Emerald Isle crabbing adventure with his son, we note he is in good spirits and rest assured he\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll be writing again somewhere soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Unless you were among the hundreds who showed up at Cat\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Cradle for a reunited Slint performing their 1991 epic Spiderland, you missed a real gem of a moment in indie rock retro.
