First things first: Free
Cone Day at Ben & Jerry's
on Main Street, Hyannis is
April 25.... Can you blame
us? We reported last week
that gazillionaire BillKoch's
new book , Maritime Maver-
ick,willcost $1,500 per copy.
The actual number is $150.
Sorry about that.... If alittle
knowledge is a dangerous
thing, a little knowledge
that's out of date is prob-
ably even more perilous.
Last week's article on the
county's new Water Protec-
tion Collaborative included
a discussion among mem-
bers about blog reports
that the executive director
position has already been
spoken for. Although our
report cited John O'Brien,
former CEO of the Cape Cod
Chamber of Commerce, as
the anonymous person be-
ing discussed , blogs within
the last year have been
talking about Maggie Geist,
executive director of the As-
sociation to Preserve Cape
Cod, asthe likely ED.At the
meeting, O'Brien spoke for
both when he said, "There
was never any intention of
any single person getting
ajob out of this." Sorry for
the confusion , and we hope
this longwinded apology
hasn't added to it.... Did
you see the classified ad in
the daily for the estate sale
at Ruth Rusher's house on
the harbor? Too bad the
place wasn't turned into the
HyannisMuseum of History.
Here 's a sampling of the
listed contents: "...whaling
items (including blubber
scoop, baleen,whale'steeth
... artworks including Ver-
non Coleman and Wallace
Nutting ... bell collection
(school , cow, sleigh)... "
