As many Friends of Unfair Park have reminded me in recent days, it's been well past six weeks since I posted this. Which is why every day I get at least one reminder that reads something like the one that arrived this morning: "Call Rasansky!" All right, settle down.
I left a few messages at former council member Mitchell Rasansky's office throughout the day. A little while ago, he finally called back. I reminded him: "Back on July 14, you said you'd be able to reveal who's taking over the old Whole Foods on Lower Greenville in six weeks. So who is it?"
He laughed. He sighed. And at some point he said, "There is nothing, no firm thing on it." Oy. "The announcement will probably be in about 45 days. Call me then, you'll be the first to know." OK, then. Forty-five days, which would put it at ... October 21, when it won't matter at all. Clearly, Mitchell's just screwing with us.
