Mister Armfield-of-the-Armfields woke me up at an un-Godly hour again this morning . . . to announce the News & Record's front-page-below-the-fold story on Community One (formerly First National) Bank of Asheboro.
In case you haven't heard, it's teetering and could fail. Reiterating my commentary on the story, it's safe to say that when it came to (bad) loans, the former CEO, Mikey (Miller) liked everything.
Alas, Miller, safely propped up in his new cushy chair in Pfeiffer College's executive suite, was unavailable for comment.
Neither, apparently, is the Courier Tribune.
The Buzzman actually e-mailed Asheboro's "newspaper" crew early this morning . . . challenging them with a jab . . . if they work hard, they might just get a story out by Saturday.

It's been hours since I contacted them.....you'd think that the biggest business news to hit Asheboro in years would be a top priority. If they don't hurry, they'll never get it out in time for Saturday's paper.
All kidding aside, when I mentioned this to my Sunshine State native spouse this morning, she replied "Well, you don't think that they're going to print anything bad about Asheboro do you?" Ah, I was so lucky to marry a girl from out of town...no getting blindsided or hoodwinked here.
Alas, we hometown girls do have higher expectations of those who proclaim the small town values.
And we get hosed every time.
:(
