So, I went "into town" yesterday. 
canyonwren posted a while back about some controversy. Her post is here.
Also, a newspaper story about it here.
The short version: Local BBQ place paints mural of pigs frolicking and generally enticing drivers to eat BBQ. Local city council comes back and disapproves.
Interpretation A: city council is nervous about naked pigs, and insists they be clothed.
Interpretation B: city council is nervous about cartoon pigs ruining the quaint old-timey flavor of town.
Interpretation C: city council insists that murals need a permit, regardless of prurient pig placement.
I'm just sad that the place was closed when I went by. For all that fuss, I hope they have some tasty food.
