Or I would have missed the retelling of this tidbit about our mayor, from a story about unmarried politicians:
Doug Wilder has brass ones. He was already my favorite politician ever, but now I'm considering carving a statue of him out of the support beams in my basement.
Former Virginia Gov. Douglas Wilder, who was single, came under fire in 1990 after using a state helicopter to rendezvous with the ex-wife of a billionaire who had been one of Wilder's financial backers. The story even made the London tabloids, because the woman had posed in the British version of Playboy.

The lady in question has brass ones as well. Currently, she is making wine in Charlottesville.

Rose from Kluge Estates is crisp, tasting of white peaches, minerals, and river rocks.

Ms. Kluge is also doing some interesting urban design work: she built an aesthetically pleasing gas station that should serve as an example everywhere. C'ville gets the sensitive gas station and we get the supermegolosheetzwawa.
